Power Efficient Wireless Sensor Node through Edge IntelligenceDamle, Abhishek Priyadarshan 04 August 2022 (has links)
Edge intelligence can reduce power dissipation to enable power-hungry long-range wireless applications. This work applies edge intelligence to quantify the reduction in power dissipation. We designed a wireless sensor node with a LoRa radio and implemented a decision tree classifier, in situ, to classify behaviors of cattle. We estimate that employing edge intelligence on our wireless sensor node reduces its average power dissipation by up to a factor of 50, from 20.10 mW to 0.41 mW. We also observe that edge intelligence increases the link budget without significantly affecting average power dissipation. / Master of Science / Battery powered sensor nodes have access to a limited amount of energy. However, many applications of sensor nodes such as animal monitoring require energy intensive, long range data transmissions. In this work, we used machine learning to process motion data within our sensor node to classify cattle behaviors. We estimate that transmitting processed data dissipates up to 50 times less power when compared to transmitting raw data. Due to the properties of our transmission protocol, we also observe that transmitting processed data increases the range of transmissions without impacting power dissipation.

Classification techniques for hyperspectral remote sensing image dataJia, Xiuping, Electrical Engineering, Australian Defence Force Academy, UNSW January 1996 (has links)
Hyperspectral remote sensing image data, such as that recorded by AVIRIS with 224 spectral bands, provides rich information on ground cover types. However, it presents new problems in machine assisted interpretation, mainly in long processing times and the difficulties of class training due to the low ratio of number of training samples to the number of bands. This thesis investigates feasible and efficient feature reduction and image classification techniques which are appropriate for hyperspectral image data. The study is reported in three parts. The first concerns a deterministic approach for hyperspectral data interpretation. Multigroup and multiple threshold spectral coding procedures, and associated techniques for spectral matching and classification, are proposed and tested. By coding on subgroups of bands using one or three thresholds, spectral searching and matching becomes simple, fast and free of the need for radiometric correction. Modifications of existing statistical techniques are proposed in the second part of the investigation A block-based maximum likelihood classification technique is developed. Several subgroups are formed from the complete set of spectral bands in the data, based on the properties of global correlation among the bands. Subgroups which are poorly correlated with each other are treated independently using conventional maximum likelihood classification. Experimental results demonstrate that, when using appropriate subgroup sizes, the new method provides a compromise among classification accuracy, processing time and available training pixels. Furthermore, a segmented, and possibly multi-layer, principal components transformation is proposed as a possible feature reduction technique prior to classification, and for effective colour display. The transformation is performed efficiently on each of the highly correlated subgroups of bands independently. Selected features from each transformed subgroup can be then transformed again to achieve a satisfactory data reduction ratio and to generate the three most significant components for colour display. Classification accuracy is improved and high quality colour image display is achieved in experiments using two AVIRIS data sets.

Instance-based ontology alignment using decision treesBoujari, Tahereh January 2012 (has links)
Using ontologies is a key technology in the semantic web. The semantic web helps people to store their data on the web, build vocabularies, and has written rules for handling these data and also helps the search engines to distinguish between the information they want to access in web easier. In order to use multiple ontologies created by different experts we need matchers to find the similar concepts in them to use it to merge these ontologies. Text based searches use the string similarity functions to find the equivalent concepts inside ontologies using their names.This is the method that is used in lexical matchers. But a global standard for naming the concepts in different research area does not exist or has not been used. The same name may refer to different concepts while different names may describe the same concept. To solve this problem we can use another approach for calculating the similarity value between concepts which is used in structural and constraint-based matchers. It uses relations between concepts, synonyms and other information that are stored in the ontologies. Another category for matchers is instance-based that uses additional information like documents related to the concepts of ontologies, the corpus, to calculate the similarity value for the concepts. Decision trees in the area of data mining are used for different kind of classification for different purposes. Using decision trees in an instance-based matcher is the main concept of this thesis. The results of this implemented matcher using the C4.5 algorithm are discussed. The matcher is also compared to other matchers. It also is used for combination with other matchers to get a better result.

Predicting the threshold grade for university admission through Machine Learning Classification Models / Förutspå tröskelvärdet för universitetsantagningsbetyg genom klassificeringsmodeller inom maskininlärningAlmawed, Anas, Victorin, Anton January 2023 (has links)
Higher-level education is very important these days, which can create very high thresholds for admission on popular programs on certain universities. In order to know what grade will be needed to be admitted to a program, a student can look at the threshold from previous years. We explored whether it was possible to generate accurate predictions of what the future threshold would be. We did this by using well-established machine learning classification models and admission data from 14 years back covering all applicants to the Computer Science and Engineering Program at KTH Royal Institute of Technology. What we found through this work is that the models are good at correctly classifying data from the past, but not in a meaningful way able to predict future thresholds. The models could not make accurate future predictions solely based on grades of past applicants. / Eftergymnasiala studier är väldigt viktiga numera, vilket kan leda till mycket höga antagningskrav på populära program på vissa universitet och högskolor. För att veta vilket betyg som krävs för att komma in på en utbildning så kan studenten titta på gränsen från tidigare år och utifrån det gissa sig till vad gränsen kommer vara kommande år. Vi undersöker om det är möjligt att, med hjälp av väletablerade, klassificerande Maskininlärnings-modeller kunna förutse antagningsgränsen i framtiden. Vi tränar modellerna på data med antagningsstatistik som sträcker sig tillbaka 14 år med alla ansökningar till civilingenjörs-programmet Datateknik på Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan. Det vi finner genom detta arbete är att modellerna är bra på att korrekt klassificera data från tidigare år, men att de inte, på ett meningsfullt sätt, kan förutse betygsgränsen kommande år. Modellerna kan inte göra detta endast genom data på betyg från tidigare år.

Predicting Risk Level in Life Insurance Application : Comparing Accuracy of Logistic Regression, DecisionTree, Random Forest and Linear Support VectorClassifiersKarthik Reddy, Pulagam, Veerababu, Sutapalli January 2023 (has links)
Background: Over the last decade, there has been a significant rise in the life insurance industry. Every life insurance application is associated with some level ofrisk, which determines the premium they charge. The process of evaluating this levelof risk for a life insurance application is time-consuming. In the present scenario, it is hard for the insurance industry to process millions of life insurance applications.One potential approach is to involve machine learning to establish a framework forevaluating the level of risk associated with a life insurance application. Objectives: The aim of this thesis is to perform two comparison studies. The firststudy aims to compare the accuracy of the logistic regression classifier, decision tree classifier, random forest classifier and linear support vector classifier for evaluatingthe level of risk associated with a life insurance application. The second study aimsto identify the impact of changes in the dataset over the accuracy of these selected classification models. Methods: The chosen approach was an experimentation methodology to attain theaim of the thesis and address its research questions. The experimentation involvedcomparing four ML algorithms, namely the LRC, DTC, RFC and Linear SVC. These algorithms were trained, validated and tested on two datasets. A new dataset wascreated by replacing the "BMI" variable with the "Life Expectancy" variable. Thefour selected ML algorithms were compared based on their performance metrics,which included accuracy, precision, recall and f1-score. Results: Among the four selected machine learning algorithms, random forest classifier attained higher accuracy with 53.79% and 52.80% on unmodified and modifieddatasets respectively. Hence, it was the most accurate algorithm for predicting risklevel in life insurance application. The second best algorithm was decision tree classifier with 51.12% and 50.79% on unmodified and modified datasets. The selectedmodels attained higher accuracies when they are trained, validated and tested withunmodified dataset. Conclusions: The random forest classifier scored high accuracy among the fourselected algorithms on both unmodified dataset and modified datasets. The selected models attained higher accuracies when they are trained, validated and tested with unmodified compared to modified dataset. Therefore, the unmodified dataset is more suitable for predicting risk level in life insurance application.

Previous issue date: 2017-07-26 / The growing demand for energy and the limitations of oil reserves have led to the
search for renewable and sustainable energy sources to replace, even partially, fossil fuels.
Biodiesel has become in last decades the main alternative to petroleum diesel. Its quality
is evaluated by given parameters and specifications which vary according to country or
region like, for example, in Europe (EN 14214), US (ASTM D6751) and Brazil (RANP
45/2014), among others. Some of these parameters are intrinsically related to the composition
of fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) of biodiesel, such as viscosity, density, oxidative
stability and iodine value, which allows to relate the behavior of these properties with the
size of the carbon chain and the presence of unsaturation in the molecules. In the present
work four methods for direct classification (support vector machine, K-nearest neighbors,
decision tree classifier and artificial neural networks) were optimized and compared to
classify biodiesel samples according to their compliance to viscosity, density, oxidative
stability and iodine value, having as input the composition of fatty acid methyl esters,
since those parameters are intrinsically related to composition of biodiesel. The classifi-
cations were carried out under the specifications of standards EN 14214, ASTM D6751
and RANP 45/2014. A comparison between these methods of direct classification and empirical
equations (indirect classification) distinguished positively the direct classification
methods in the problem addressed, especially when the biodiesel samples have properties
values very close to the limits of the considered specifications. / A demanda crescente por fontes de energia renováveis e como alternativa aos combustíveis
fósseis tornam o biodiesel como uma das principais alternativas para substituição dos derivados do petróleo. O controle da qualidade do biodiesel durante processo de
produção e distribuição é extremamente importante para garantir um combustível com
qualidade confiável e com desempenho satisfatório para o usuário final. O biodiesel é
caracterizado pela medição de determinadas propriedades de acordo com normas internacionais.
A utilização de métodos de aprendizagem de máquina para a caracterização do
biodiesel permite economia de tempo e dinheiro. Neste trabalho é mostrado que para a
determinação da conformidade de um biodiesel os classificadores SVM, KNN e Árvore de
decisões apresentam melhores resultados que os métodos de predição de trabalhos anteriores.
Para as propriedades de viscosidade densidade, índice de iodo e estabilidade oxidativa
(RANP 45/2014, EN14214:2014 e ASTM D6751-15) os classificadores KNN e Árvore de
decisões apresentaram-se como melhores opções. Estes resultados mostram que os classificadores
podem ser aplicados de forma prática visando economia de tempo, recursos
financeiros e humanos.
