It is reforming our world with trillions of sensors and other IoT enabled devices by creating a smart environment. Effective use of IoT sensors in various smart IoT applications is very important. After analyzing different sensor…

Firewalls are controlled by rules which often incur anomalies. The anomalies are considered serious problems that administrators do not desire to happen over their firewalls because they cause more vulnerabilities and decrease the overall performance of the firewall. Resolving anomaly rules that have already occurred on the firewall is difficult and mainly depends on the…

Tinnitus is a phenomenon for which the patient hears sound in the absence of any external sound source. To this day, there is no cure for this phantom sound perception. But it can be masked temporarily to help relief the patient’s pain. In order to allow this, a better understanding of the phenomenon is needed.…

Trust is essential in many interdependent human relationships. Trustworthiness is measured via the effectiveness of the relationships involving human perception. The decision to trust others is often made quickly (even at zero acquaintance). Previous research has shown the significance of voice in perceived trustworthiness. However, the listeners’ characteristics were not considered. A system has yet…

With the aim of preventing hydro-geological risks and overcoming the problems of current rain gauges, this paper proposes a low-complexity and cost-effective video rain gauge. In particular, in this paper the authors propose a new approach to rainfall classification based on image processing and video matching process employing convolutional neural networks (CNN). The system consists…
