Determining the best suited semantic events for cognitive surveillance

State-of-the-art systems on cognitive surveillance identify and describe complex events in selected domains, thus providing end-users with tools to easily access the contents of massive video footage. Nevertheless, as the complexity of events increases in semantics and the types of indoor/outdoor scenarios diversify, it becomes difficult to assess which events describe better the scene, and how...

On Generalized Random Railways

We consider a random generalized railway defined as a random 3-regular multigraph where some vertices are regarded as switches not allowing traffic between any pair of attached edges. It is shown that the probability that the generalized railway is functioning is linear in the proportion of switches. Thus there is no threshold phenomenon for this property.

Indigenous Bali Cattle: The Best Suited Cattle Breed for Sustainable Small Farms in Indonesia

Indonesia has a total population of around 206 million with 4.5 million households keeping livestock. About half of the cattle farmers are small farmers. The Indonesian archipelago is a land area of 1.8 million km consisting of over 13,000 islands stretching from the Western tip of Sumatra to the Eastern border of Papua. The largest island, Kalimantan (Borneo), covers 28% of the total land area...

Performance Analysis of Best suited Adaptive Equalization Algorithm for Optical Communication

Fiber optics is one of the highest bandwidth communication channel types in the current communication industry. The paper is to analyze a typical optical channel and perform channel equalization using an adaptive modified DFE with Activity Detection Guidance and Tap Decoupling algorithm. Evaluation can be made on the employment of the DFE algorithm and with enhancements, like FractionallySpaced...
