A large number of sensors deployed in recent years in various setups and their data is readily available in dedicated databases or in the cloud. Of particular interest is real-time data processing and 3D visualization in web-based user interfaces that facilitate spatial information understanding and sharing, hence helping the decision making process for all the parties involved. In this research, we provide a prototype system for near real-time, continuous X3D-based visualization of processed sensor data for two significant applications: thermal monitoring for residential/commercial buildings and nitrogen cycle monitoring in water beds for aquaponics systems. As sensors are sparsely placed, in each application, where they collect data for large periods (of up to one year), we employ a Finite Differences Method and a Neural Networks model to approximate data distribution in the entire volume.

Electromagnetic (EM) sensing is a wide-spread contactless examination technique in science, engineering and military. However, conventional sensing systems are mostly lack of intelligence, which not only require expensive hardware and complicated computational algorithms, but also pose important challenges for advanced in-situ sensing. To address this shortcoming, we propose the concept of intelligent sensing by designing a programmable metasurface for data-driven learnable data acquisition, and integrating it into a data-driven learnable data processing pipeline. This strategy allows to learn an optimal sensing chain in systematic sense of variational autoencoder, i.e., to jointly learn an optimal measurement strategy along with matching data post processing schemes. A three-port deep artificial neural network (ANN) is designed to characterize the measurement process, such that an optimal measurement strategy is adaptive to the subject of interest by controlling the programmable metasurface for manipulating the EM illuminations. We design and fabricate a proof-of-principle sensing system in microwave, and demonstrate experimentally its significance on the high-quality imaging and high-accuracy object recognition from a remarkably reduced number of measurements. We faithfully expect that the presented methodology will provide us with a fundamentally new perspective on the design of intelligent sensing architectures at various frequencies, and beyond.
We present an IoT-based intelligent bed sensor system that collects and analyses respiration-associated signals for unobtrusive monitoring in the home, hospitals and care units. A contactless device is used, which contains four load sensors mounted under the bed and one data processing unit (data logger). Various machine learning methods are applied to the data streamed from the data logger to detect the Respiratory Rate (RR). We have implemented Support Vector Machine (SVM) and also Neural Network (NN)-based pattern recognition methods, which are combined with either peak detection or Hilbert transform for robust RR calculation. Experimental results show that our methods could effectively extract RR using the data collected by contactless bed sensors. The proposed methods are robust to outliers and noise, which are caused by body movements. The monitoring system provides a flexible and scalable way for continuous and remote monitoring of sleep, movement and weight using the embedded sensors.
The Large Intelligent Surface (LIS) concept has emerged recently as a new paradigm for wireless communication, remote sensing and positioning. It consists of a continuous radiating surface placed relatively close to the users, which is able to communicate with users by independent transmission and reception (replacing base stations). Despite of its potential, there are a lot of challenges from an implementation point of view, with the interconnection data-rate and computational complexity being the most relevant. Distributed processing techniques and hierarchical architectures are expected to play a vital role addressing this while ensuring scalability. In this paper we perform algorithm-architecture codesign and analyze the hardware requirements and architecture trade-offs for a discrete LIS to perform uplink detection. By doing this, we expect to give concrete case studies and guidelines for efficient implementation of LIS systems.
With the rapid development of intelligent vehicles and Advanced Driving Assistance Systems (ADAS), a mixed level of human driver engagements is involved in the transportation system. Visual guidance for drivers is essential under this situation to prevent potential risks. To advance the development of visual guidance systems, we introduce a novel sensor fusion methodology, integrating camera image and Digital Twin knowledge from the cloud. Target vehicle bounding box is drawn and matched by combining results of object detector running on ego vehicle and position information from the cloud. The best matching result, with a 79.2% accuracy under 0.7 Intersection over Union (IoU) threshold, is obtained with depth image served as an additional feature source. Game engine-based simulation results also reveal that the visual guidance system could improve driving safety significantly cooperate with the cloud Digital Twin system.
Intelligent signal processing for wireless communications is a vital task in modern wireless systems, but it faces new challenges because of network heterogeneity, diverse service requirements, a massive number of connections, and various radio characteristics. Owing to recent advancements in big data and computing technologies, artificial intelligence (AI) has become a useful tool for radio signal processing and has enabled the realization of intelligent radio signal processing. This survey covers four intelligent signal processing topics for the wireless physical layer, including modulation classification, signal detection, beamforming, and channel estimation. In particular, each theme is presented in a dedicated section, starting with the most fundamental principles, followed by a review of up-to-date studies and a summary. To provide the necessary background, we first present a brief overview of AI techniques such as machine learning, deep learning, and federated learning. Finally, we highlight a number of research challenges and future directions in the area of intelligent radio signal processing. We expect this survey to be a good source of information for anyone interested in intelligent radio signal processing, and the perspectives we provide therein will stimulate many more novel ideas and contributions in the future.
