Book Description
This book covers two most important applications of smart sensors, namely bio-health sensing and environmental monitoring. The approach taken is holistic and covers the complete scope of the subject matter from the principles of the sensing mechanism, through device physics, circuit and system implementation techniques, and energy issues to wireless connectivity solutions. It is written at a level suitable mainly for post-graduate level researchers interested in practical applications. The chapters are independent but complementary to each other, and the book works within the wider perspective of essential smart sensors for the Internet of Things (IoT). This is the second of three books based on the Integrated Smart Sensors research project, which describe the development of innovative devices, circuits, and system-level enabling technologies. The aim of the project was to develop common platforms on which various devices and sensors can be loaded, and to create systems offering significant improvements in information processing speed, energy usage, and size. This book contains substantial reference lists and over 150 figures, introducing the reader to the subject in a tutorial style whilst also addressing state-of-the-art research results, allowing it to be used as a guide for starting researchers.

Human Communication Technology
Author: R. Anandan
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1119752159
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
HUMAN COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY A unique book explaining how perception, location, communication, cognition, computation, networking, propulsion, integration of federated Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT) and digital platforms are important components of new-generation IoRT applications through continuous, real-time interaction with the world. The 16 chapters in this book discuss new architectures, networking paradigms, trustworthy structures, and platforms for the integration of applications across various business and industrial domains that are needed for the emergence of intelligent things (static or mobile) in collaborative autonomous fleets. These new apps speed up the progress of paradigms of autonomous system design and the proliferation of the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT). Collaborative robotic things can communicate with other things in the IoRT, learn independently, interact securely with the world, people, and other things, and acquire characteristics that make them self-maintaining, self-aware, self-healing, and fail-safe operational. Due to the ubiquitous nature of collaborative robotic things, the IoRT, which binds together the sensors and the objects of robotic things, is gaining popularity. Therefore, the information contained in this book will provide readers with a better understanding of this interdisciplinary field. Audience Researchers in various fields including computer science, IoT, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data analytics.

Book Description
?Emerging Technologies for Healthcare? beginnt mit einer IoT-basierten Lösung für die Automatisierung im Gesundheitssektor, wodurch Verfahren auf Grundlage von fortschrittlichen Deep-Learning-Techniken ermöglicht werden. Praktische Lösungen, die auf verschiedenen Ansätzen des maschinellen Lernens beruhen, werden vorgestellt und auf die Analyse und Vorhersage von Krankheiten angewandt. Ein Beispiel ist die Nutzung einer dreidimensionalen Matrix für die Behandlung chronischer Nierenerkrankungen, die Diagnose und Prognose des erworbenen demyelinisierenden Syndroms und von Autismus-Spektrum-Störungen sowie die Erkennung von Lungenentzündungen. Außerdem werden verschiedene geeignete Ansätze vorgestellt, wie die Gesundheitssysteme mit COVID-19-Fällen umgehen können. Daneben wird ein detaillierter Erkennungsmechanismus dargelegt, mit dessen Hilfe Lösungen entwickelt werden können, um von der Handschrift auf die Persönlichkeit zu schließen, und es werden neuartige Ansätze für die Stimmungsanalyse aufgezeigt, die mit ausreichenden Daten und verschiedenen Betrachtungsweisen untermauert sind. Dieses Buch enthält nicht nur theoretische Ansätze und Algorithmen, sondern zeigt auch auf, welche Schritte bei der Problemanalyse mithilfe von Daten, Prozessen, Berichten und Optimierungstechniken durchlaufen werden. Es ist ein umfassendes Nachschlagewerk für die Lösung verschiedener Probleme anhand von Algorithmen für das maschinelle Lernen.
