Signal Processing

Wearable long-term monitoring applications are becoming more and more popular in both the consumer and the medical market. In wearable ECG monitoring, the data quality depends on the properties of the electrodes and on how they contact the skin. Dry electrodes do not require any action from the user. They usually do not irritate the skin, and they provide sufficiently high-quality data for ECG monitoring purposes during low-intensity user activity. We investigated prospective motion artifact–resistant dry electrode materials for wearable ECG monitoring.

Multidimensional geometric shaping has been shown to outperform uniform quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) in optical communication systems but the complexity of symbol decision and bit mapping can often be significant as dimensionality increases. In this paper, a low-complexity geometric shaping method based on multidimensional lattices is investigated both in experiments and simulations. The modulation formats designed based on this method are called Voronoi constellations (VCs) and we study them in 8, 16, and 32 dimensions.

To gather the dataset, we asked two participants to perform six basic knife activities. The layout of the system experiment is provided in Fig. 4. As it illustrates, we put the receiver on the right side and the ESP32 transceiver on the left side of the performing area. The performing area is a cutting board (30 x 46 cm) in this experiment. Each participant performs each activity five times in the performing area.

The main objective of this project is to design and develop a collaborative framework which facilitates real-time tracking of a target person even when GPS signal is not available, while collecting motion data to infer his or her lifestyle and health status. The framework orchestrates a wide range of technologies such as localization technologies, machine learning and AI, sensor data analytics and cloud computing. The overall framework design also takes into consideration the culture, lifestyles, behaviours and infrastructures of ASEAN countries.

In this paper, we study the advantages of improper Gaussian signaling (IGS) with the existence of hardware impairments (HWI) and imperfect successive interference cancellation (SIC) in the downlink two-user power-domain non-orthogonal multiple access (PD-NOMA) systems. We first provide the input-output relationships for the MIMO system with HWIs and then derive the rate expressions for each user. The improper signals are assumed to be generated by widely linear precoding (WLP), transmitted under the PD-NOMA scheme, and in the context of imperfect SIC.

The formation and changes of the pulse wave areaffected by the functional status of the heart, blood, and arterial vessels. The pulse signal covers pathological information in the cardiovascular system, and the doctor of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can diagnose diseases by feeling the pulse. The diagnosis of diseases through feeling the pulse of TCM primarily relies on the doctor’s feelings and subjective experience, and it lacks objectified data.

Cars, mobile phones, and smart home devices already provide automatic speech recognition (ASR) by default. However, human machine interfaces (HMI) in industrial settings, as opposed to consumer settings, operate under different conditions and thus, present different design challenges. Voice control, arguably the most natural form of communication, has the potential to shorten complex command sequences and menu structures in order to directly execute a final command.

This is our experimental interface and environment. the algorithm's performance was evaluated using the UTIAS multi-robot CL and mapping dataset provided by Leung et al.

Each robot was equipped with a wheel encoder and a monocular camera, measuring linear and rotational velocities at 67 Hz and capturing distance and orientation measurements with other robots and landmarks. The position and orientation were obtained from a 10-camera Vicon motion capture system at 100 Hz, with a positional accuracy of approximately 1 mm.
