In-Ear EEG Biometrics for Feasible and Readily Collectable Real-World Person Authentication Abstract-The use of electroencephalogram (EEG) as a biometrics modality has been investigated for about a decade; however, its feasibility in real-world applications is not yet conclusively established, mainly due to the issues with collectability and reproducibility. To this end, we propose a readily deployable…
Independent Vector Analysis Applied to Remove Muscle Artifacts in EEG Data Abstract– Electroencephalogram (EEG) data are often contaminated by various electrophysiological artifacts. Among all these artifacts, the muscle activity is particularly difficult to remove. In the literature, independent component analysis (ICA) and canonical correlation analysis (CCA), as blind source separation techniques, are the most popular…
Indoor Localization Using FM Signals Abstract– Indoor Localization Using FM Signals. The major challenge for accurate fingerprint-based indoor localization is the design of robust and discriminative wireless signatures. Even though WiFi received signal strength indicator (RSSI) signatures are widely available indoors, they vary significantly over time and are susceptible to human presence, multipath, and fading…
Mining Human Activity Patterns From Smart Home Big Data for Health Care Applications Abstract– The timely detection of life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) is critical for saving a patient?s life. General features that characterize ECG waveforms are extracted for VA detection. To take into account the subtle differences in the QRS complexes among different people, new…
Low-cost BISRA with BIST for word Oriented memories Abstract-Low-cost BISRA with BIST for word Oriented memories. As the memory enters submicron technology, new test algorithm that will be able to give a better fault coverage such as to detect all intra-word coupling fault (CF) has been widely developed. In order to implement this algorithm to…
Low-Power Dual Dynamic Node Pulsed HybridFlip-Flop Featuring Efficient Embedded Logic Abstract– Low-Power Dual Dynamic Node Pulsed HybridFlip-Flop Featuring Efficient Embedded Logic. In this paper, we introduce a new dual dynamic node hybrid flip-flop (DDFF) and a novel embedded logic module (DDFF-ELM) based on DDFF. The proposed designs eliminate the large capacitance present in the precharge…
Novel PSO based FPGA Placement Techniques Abstract– Novel PSO based FPGA Placement Techniques. Digital ICs for electronic systems are fast realized on Field programmable gate array (FPGA). The reconfigurability of FPGA has made this mode of digital circuit synthesis more popular among the system designers. But unlike other ICs it provides a restricted hardware structure…
On the Permanence of EEG Signals for Biometric Recognition Abstract? Brain signals have been investigated for more than a century in the medical field. However, despite the broad interest in clinical applications, their use as a biometric identifier has been only recently considered by the scientific community. We focus on the permanence across time of…
