Intelligent Sensor Networks
Author: Fei Hu
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1439892814
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 676
Book Description
Although governments worldwide have invested significantly in intelligent sensor network research and applications, few books cover intelligent sensor networks from a machine learning and signal processing perspective. Filling this void, Intelligent Sensor Networks: The Integration of Sensor Networks, Signal Processing and Machine Learning focuses on the close integration of sensing, networking, and smart signal processing via machine learning. Based on the world-class research of award-winning authors, the book provides a firm grounding in the fundamentals of intelligent sensor networks, including compressive sensing and sampling, distributed signal processing, and intelligent signal learning. Presenting recent research results of world-renowned sensing experts, the book is organized into three parts: Machine Learning—describes the application of machine learning and other AI principles in sensor network intelligence—covering smart sensor/transducer architecture and data representation for intelligent sensors Signal Processing—considers the optimization of sensor network performance based on digital signal processing techniques—including cross-layer integration of routing and application-specific signal processing as well as on-board image processing in wireless multimedia sensor networks for intelligent transportation systems Networking—focuses on network protocol design in order to achieve an intelligent sensor networking—covering energy-efficient opportunistic routing protocols for sensor networking and multi-agent-driven wireless sensor cooperation Maintaining a focus on "intelligent" designs, the book details signal processing principles in sensor networks. It elaborates on critical platforms for intelligent sensor networks and illustrates key applications—including target tracking, object identification, and structural health monitoring. It also includes a paradigm for validating the extent of spatiotemporal associations among data sources to enhance data cleaning in sensor networks, a sensor stream reduction application, and also considers the use of Kalman filters for attack detection in a water system sensor network that consists of water level sensors and velocity sensors.

Book Description
Recently, Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML) has gained incredible importance due to its capabilities of creating lightweight machine learning (ML) frameworks aiming at low latency, lower energy consumption, lower bandwidth requirement, improved data security and privacy, and other performance necessities. As billions of battery-operated embedded IoT and low power wide area networks (LPWAN) nodes with very low on-board memory and computational capabilities are getting connected to the Internet each year, there is a critical need to have a special computational framework like TinyML. TinyML for Edge Intelligence in IoT and LPWAN Networks presents the evolution, developments, and advances in TinyML as applied to IoT and LPWANs. It starts by providing the foundations of IoT/LPWANs, low power embedded systems and hardware, the role of artificial intelligence and machine learning in communication networks in general and cloud/edge intelligence. It then presents the concepts, methods, algorithms and tools of TinyML. Practical applications of the use of TinyML are given from health and industrial fields which provide practical guidance on the design of applications and the selection of appropriate technologies. TinyML for Edge Intelligence in IoT and LPWAN Networks is highly suitable for academic researchers and professional system engineers, architects, designers, testers, deployment engineers seeking to design ultra-lower power and time-critical applications. It would also help in designing the networks for emerging and future applications for resource-constrained nodes. - This book provides one-stop solutions for emerging TinyML for IoT and LPWAN applications. - The principles and methods of TinyML are explained, with a focus on how it can be used for IoT, LPWANs, and 5G applications. - Applications from the healthcare and industrial sectors are presented. - Guidance on the design of applications and the selection of appropriate technologies is provided.
