The purpose of state tying is to reduce the number of models and to use relatively reliable output probability distributions. There are two approaches: one is top down clustering and the other is bottom up clustering. For seen data, the performance of bottom up approach is better than that of top down approach. In this paper, we propose a new clustering technique that can enhance the undertrained triphone clustering performance. The basic idea is to tie unreliable triphones before clustering. An unreliable triphone is the one that appears in the training data too infrequently to train the model accurately. We propose to use monophone distance to preprocess these unreliable triphones. It has been shown in a pilot experiment that the proposed method reduces the error rate significantly.

Energy is a scarce resource in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). A variety of clustering protocols for WSNs, such as the zone-based stable election protocol-enhanced (ZSEP-E), have been developed for energy optimization. The ZSEP-E is a heterogeneous zone-based clustering protocol that focuses on unbalanced energy consumption with parallel formation of clusters in zones and election of cluster heads (CHs). Most ZSEP-E research has assumed probabilistic election of CHs in the zones by considering the maximum residual energy of nodes. However, studies of the diverse CH election parameters are lacking. We investigated the performance of the ZSEP-E in such scenarios using a fuzzy logic approach based on three descriptors, i.e., energy, density, and the distance from the node to the base station. We proposed an efficient ZSEP-E scheme to adapt and elect CHs in zones using fuzzy variables and evaluated its performance for different energy levels in the zones.

An object's color and intensity are determined by its spectral reflectance and illumination. Therefore, the illumination plays a key role in forming the appearance of the object in a scene. In this paper, we focus on color distinction of objects and derive the optimal illumination conditions to maximize the distance between objects in the RGB color space. As a practical approach the optimal illumination is composed by deriving the optimal linear combinations given a set of LED light sources. The effectiveness of our approach is shown through experimental results using an endoscope system.

Similarity searching is a basic issue in information processing because of the large size of formal contexts and their complicated derivation operators. Recently, some researchers have focused on knowledge reduction methods by using granular computing. In this process, suitable information granules are vital to characterizing the quantities of attributes and objects. To address this problem, a novel approach to obtain an entropy-weighted concept lattice with inclusion degree and similarity distance (ECLisd) has been proposed. The approach aims to compute the combined weights by merging the inclusion degree and entropy degree between two concepts. In addition, another method is utilized to measure the hierarchical distance by considering the different degrees of importance of each attribute. Finally, the rationality of the ECLisd is validated via a comparative analysis.

In this paper, an approach to determine the in-ordinal condition of a room, which is based on multi variable analysis, is proposed. According to this approach, the distance of a state from the ordinal condition is thought to be evaluated by the Mahalanobis' distance. The temperature changes of a room were measured and their statistical characteristics such as distribution type, the mean value and the standard deviation are studied. The applicability of the method for the fire detection is also investigated.

This paper presents a new feature extraction technique, correlation coefficient and Manhattan distance (MD) based method for recognition of rotated object in an image. This paper also represented a new concept of intensity invariant. We extracted global features of an image and converts a large size image into a one-dimensional vector called circular feature vector's (CFVs). An especial advantage of the proposed technique is that the extracted features are same even if original image is rotated with rotation angles 1 to 360 or rotated. The proposed technique is based on fuzzy sets and finally we have recognized the object by using histogram matching, correlation coefficient and manhattan distance of the objects. The proposed approach is very easy in implementation and it has implemented in Matlab7 on Windows XP. The experimental results have demonstrated that the proposed approach performs successfully on a variety of small as well as large scale rotated images.

According to existing study into the remote fault diagnosis procedure, the current diagnostic approach has an imperfect decision model, which only supports communication in a close distance. An Internet of Things (IoT)-based remote fault diagnostic approach for wind power equipment is created to address this issue and expand the communication distance of fault diagnosis. Specifically, a decision model for active power coordination is built with the mechanical energy storage of power generation equipment with a remote diagnosis mode set by decision tree algorithms. These models help calculate the failure frequency of bearings in power generation equipment, summarize the characteristics of failure types and detect the operation status of wind power equipment through IoT. In addition, they can also generate the point inspection data and evaluate the equipment status. The findings demonstrate that the average communication distances of the designed remote diagnosis method and the other two remote diagnosis methods are 587.46 m, 435.61 m, and 454.32 m, respectively, indicating its application value.

The instrument landing system (ILS) is an international standard established by the International civil aviation organization (ICAO) as one of the landing support facilities for aircraft. This system consists of a localizer (LOC) that provides orientation information about the runway to indicate the approach direction, a glide path (GP) that indicates the appropriate approach glide slope, and three of marker beacons (MB) that indicates the distance to the runway landing edge. In this study, we predicted the received signal strength by altitude and distance for LOC signals transmitted from the ground and analyzed the difference with the signal strength measured in the actual environment. Our objective is to develop signal strength prediction technology and apply it to the real environment.

The study on query relaxation which provides approximate answers has received attention. In recent years, some arguments have been made that semantic relationships are useful to present the relationships among data values and calculating the semantic distance between two data values can be used as a quantitative measure to express relative distance. The aim of this article is a hierarchical metricized knowledge abstraction (HiMKA) with an emphasis on combining data abstraction hierarchy and distance measure among data values. We propose the operations and the query relaxation algorithm appropriate to the HiMKA. With various experiments and comparison with other method, we show that the HiMKA is very useful for the quantified approximate query answering and our result is to offer a new methodological framework for query relaxation.

The distance between objects and a service robot can be measured by stereo vision system, but the two cameras need the same number of image grabber boards. In this paper, an approach to measure the distance is presented by using one camera which moves horizontally via motor position control. Images are captured at two different places where we know, and distance calculation is performed with the images and the camera position data. With a simple algorithm the proposed system requires only one image grabber board and no camera sequence controls are necessary, which resuces the system costs.
