Machine Learning

The Berlin V2X dataset offers high-resolution GPS-located wireless measurements across diverse urban environments in the city of Berlin for both cellular and sidelink radio access technologies, acquired with up to 4 cars over 3 days. The data enables thus a variety of different ML studies towards vehicle-to-anything (V2X) communication.

The data includes information on:

Gestational diabetes is a type of high blood sugar that develops during pregnancy. It can occur at any stage of pregnancy and cause problems for both the mother and the baby, during and after birth. The risks can be reduced if they are early detected and managed, especially in areas where only periodic tests of pregnant women are available. Intelligent systems designed by machine learning algorithms are remodelling all fields of our lives, including the healthcare system. This study proposes a combined prediction model to diagnose gestational diabetes.

Ear biting is a welfare challenge in commercial pig farming. Pigs sustain injuries at the site of bite paving the way for bacterial infections. Early detection and management of this behaviour is important to enhance animal health and welfare, increase productivity whilst minimising inputs from medication. Pig management using physical observation is not practical due to the scale of modern pig production systems. The same applies to the manual analysis of captured videos from pig houses. Therefore, a method of automated detection is desirable.

This research proposes a method to detect alcohol consumption from Near-Infra-Red (NIR) periocular eye images. The study focuses on determining the effect of external factors such as alcohol on the Central Nervous System (CNS). The goal is to analyse how this impacts on iris and pupil movements and if it is possible to capture these changes with a standard iris NIR camera. This paper proposes a novel Fused Capsule Network (F-CapsNet) to classify iris NIR images taken under alcohol consumption subjects.
