A Survey Of The Semantic Specification Of Sensors, Michael Compton, Cory Andrew Henson, Laurent Lefort, Holger Neuhaus, Amit P. Sheth Oct 2009

A Survey Of The Semantic Specification Of Sensors, Michael Compton, Cory Andrew Henson, Laurent Lefort, Holger Neuhaus, Amit P. Sheth

Kno.e.sis Publications

Semantic sensor networks use declarative descriptions of sensors promote reuse and integration, and to help solve the difficulties of installing, querying and maintaining complex, heterogeneous sensor networks. This paper reviews the state of the art for the semantic specification of sensors, one of the fundamental technologies in the semantic sensor network vision. Twelve sensor ontologies are reviewed and analysed for the range and expressive power of their concepts. The reasoning and search technology developed in conjunction with these ontologies is also reviewed, as is technology for annotating OGC standards with links to ontologies. Sensor concepts that cannot be expressed accurately …

The Future Of “Fair And Balanced”: The Fairness Doctrine, Net Neutrality, And The Internet, Sasha Leonhardt Oct 2009

The Future Of “Fair And Balanced”: The Fairness Doctrine, Net Neutrality, And The Internet, Sasha Leonhardt

Duke Law & Technology Review

In recent months, different groups--pundits, politicians, and even an FCC Commissioner--have discussed resurrecting the now-defunct Fairness Doctrine and applying it to Internet communication. This iBrief responds to the novel application of the Doctrine to the Internet in three parts. First, this iBrief will review the history and legal rationale that supported the Fairness Doctrine, with a particular emphasis on emerging technologies. Second, this iBrief applies these legal arguments to the evolving structure of the Internet. Third, this iBrief will consider what we can learn about Net Neutrality through an analogy to the Fairness Doctrine. This iBrief concludes that, while the …

A Biphasic Integrate-And-Fire System, Sheng Feng Yen, Jie Xu, Manu Rastogi, John G. Harris, Jose C. Principe, Justin C. Sanchez Oct 2009

A Biphasic Integrate-And-Fire System, Sheng Feng Yen, Jie Xu, Manu Rastogi, John G. Harris, Jose C. Principe, Justin C. Sanchez

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A neuronal recording system for brain-machine interfaces (BMI) based on asynchronous biphasic pulse coding is described. It demonstrates the first step in the development of a completely implanted wireless solution with a fully integrated circuit architecture. A recording experiment comparing, in parallel, a commercial recording system (Tucker-Davis Technology (TDT)) and the UF's custom solution (FWIRE) is set up to compare performance. The novel aspect of the UF system is that the analog signal is represented by an asynchronous pulse train, which provides a low-power, low-bandwidth, noise resistant means for coding and transmission. Taking advantage of neural firing features, the pulse-based …

A New Variable Step-Size Fractional Lower-Order Moment Algorithm For Non-Gaussian Interference Environments, Tiange Shao, Yahong Rosa Zheng Oct 2009

A New Variable Step-Size Fractional Lower-Order Moment Algorithm For Non-Gaussian Interference Environments, Tiange Shao, Yahong Rosa Zheng

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A new variable step-size fractional lower-order moment (FLOM) algorithm is proposed for non-Gaussian interference suppression. the Normalized FLOM algorithm is a generalization of the normalized least mean square (NLMS) algorithm with a lower order p ≤ 2 and p = 2 corresponding to the NLMS algorithm. with a fixed step size, the smaller the order p, the faster the convergence of the NFLOM algorithm, but the higher the excess mean square errors (MSE) after convergence. the proposed vs.S-FLOM provides a compromise solution to the two conflicting goals of low excess MSE and fast convergence. Simulation results for a system identification …

A Low-Complexity Hardware Implementation Of Discrete-Time Frequency-Selective Rayleigh Fading Channels, Fei Ren, Yahong R. Zheng Oct 2009

A Low-Complexity Hardware Implementation Of Discrete-Time Frequency-Selective Rayleigh Fading Channels, Fei Ren, Yahong R. Zheng

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A low-complexity hardware implementation method is proposed for discrete-time frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channels. the proposed method first employs the Sum-of-Sinusoids method to generate multiple independent flat fading channel responses, then utilizes a simple weight-delay-sum filtering method to incorporate the fractionally delayed multipath rays into inter-tap correlated tap gains. It thus achieves accurate correlation properties in both inter-tap correlation and temporal correlation (or Doppler spectrum). the proposed method is implemented by an Altera Stratix II FPGA development kit and the results show excellent performance match with those by MATLAB software simulations. ©2009 IEEE.

Biologically Plausible Speech Recognition Using Spike-Based Phase Locking Cues, Ismail Uysal, John G. Harris Oct 2009

Biologically Plausible Speech Recognition Using Spike-Based Phase Locking Cues, Ismail Uysal, John G. Harris

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

A biologically plausible algorithm is proposed for phoneme recognition that makes use of spikes for computation. The prototype system is demonstrated on voiced phonemes and shows competitive performance with state-of-the-art systems on a vowel dataset in the presence of noise. Using novel phase locking cues, the algorithm performs surprisingly well down to SNR values as low as 5dB, where the performance of the baseline algorithm used for comparison drops considerably. These results suggest, not only a possible explanation for the extreme noise robustness of human recognition, but also a novel technique for information processing for speech signals with computers. ©2009 …

Continuous Phase Amplification With A Sagnac Interferometer, David J. Starling, P. Ben Dixon, Nathan S. Williams, Andrew N. Jordan, John C. Howell Oct 2009

Continuous Phase Amplification With A Sagnac Interferometer, David J. Starling, P. Ben Dixon, Nathan S. Williams, Andrew N. Jordan, John C. Howell

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

We describe a phase-amplification technique using a Sagnac interferometer. We monitor the relative phase between two paths of a precisely misaligned interferometer by measuring the average position of a split-Gaussian mode in the dark port. Although we monitor only the dark port, we show that the signal varies linearly with phase and that we can obtain similar sensitivity to balanced homodyne detection. We derive the source of the amplification using classical wave optics.

Xyloryctes Hope, 1837 (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Dynastinae: Oryctini) In The United States. Qui Es Et Ubi Fuisti Et Quo Vadis?, Brett C. Ratcliffe Oct 2009

Xyloryctes Hope, 1837 (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Dynastinae: Oryctini) In The United States. Qui Es Et Ubi Fuisti Et Quo Vadis?, Brett C. Ratcliffe

Insecta Mundi

Two species of Xyloryctes occur in the United States: X. jamaicensis (Drury) and X. thestalus Bates. Identification and distribution of these species has long been confused but is reviewed and clarified here. Xyloryctes jamaicensis occurs only in the eastern half of the U.S. and not in the southwestern U.S. as previously thought, while X. thestalus occurs in Guatemala and southern Mexico northwards to the southwestern United States. This hypothesis is corroborated by biogeographical and host plant data. Three new synonyms are listed for X. thestalus: X. faunus Casey 1915, X. hebes Casey 1915, and X. thestalus borealis Endrödi.
