A novel glucose sensor based on the deflection of a thin membrane is proposed in the article. The sensor consists of a glucose-sensitive hydrogel layer which exhibits swelling when immersed in a glucose-containing solution. A detailed overview of the fabrication procedure and preliminary experimental results for real-time glucose monitoring using our prototype devices will be presented.

We developed a microwave glucose sensor based on the modified first-order Hilbert curve design and measured glucose concentration in aqueous solutions by using a real-time microwave near-field electromagnetic interaction technique. We observed S21 transmission parameters of the sensor at resonant frequencies depend on the glucose concentration. We could determine the glucose concentration in the 0–250 mg/dL concentration range at an operating frequency of near 6 GHz. The measured minimum detectable signal was 0.0156 dB/(mg/dL) and the measured minimum detectable concentration was 1.92 mg/dL. The simulation result for the minimum detectable signal and the minimum detectable concentration was 0.0182 dB/(mg/dL) and 1.65 mg/dL, respectively. The temperature instability of the sensor for human glycemia in situ measurement range (27–34 °C for fingers and 36–40 °C for body temperature ranges) can be improved by the integration of the temperature sensor in the microwave stripline platform and the obtained data can be corrected during signal processing. The microwave signal–temperature dependence is almost linear with the same slope for a glucose concentration range of 50–150 mg/dL. The temperature correlation coefficient is 0.05 dB/°C and 0.15 dB/°C in 27–34 °C and 36–40 °C temperature range, respectively. The presented system has a cheap, easy fabrication process and has great potential for non-invasive glucose monitoring.

In data mining, outlier detection is a major challenge as it has an important role in many applications such as medical data, image processing, fraud detection, intrusion detection, and so forth. An extensive variety of clustering based approaches have been developed to detect outliers. However they are by nature time consuming which restrict their utilization with real-time applications. Furthermore, outlier detection requests are handled one at a time, which means that each request is initiated individually with a particular set of parameters. In this paper, the first clustering based outlier detection framework, (On the Fly Clustering Based Outlier Detection (OFCOD)) is presented. OFCOD enables analysts to effectively find out outliers on time with request even within huge datasets. The proposed framework has been tested and evaluated using two real world datasets with different features and applications; one with 699 records, and another with five millions records. The experimental results show that the performance of the proposed framework outperforms other existing approaches while considering several evaluation metrics.

Automatic equipmenttransportation in the wild complex terrain circumstances is very important in rescue or military. In this paper, an accompanying system based on the identification and tracking of infrared LEDmarkers is proposed. This system avoidsthe defect that visible-light identification method has. In addition, this paper presents a Kalman filter to predict where infraredmarkers may appear in the nextframe imageto reduce the searchingarea of infrared markers, which remarkablyimproves the identificationspeed of infrared markers. The experimental results show that the algorithm proposed in this paper is effective and feasible.

In this paper, an ultrawideband localization system to improve the cyclists’ safety is presented. The architectural solutions proposed consist of tags placed on bikes, whose positions have to be estimated, and anchors, acting as reference nodes, located at intersections and/or on vehicles. The peculiarities of the localization system in terms of accuracy and cost enable its adoption with enhanced risk assessment units situated on the infrastructure/vehicle, depending on the architecture chosen, as well as real-time warning to the road users. Experimental results reveal that the localization error, in both static and dynamic conditions, is below 50 cm in most of the cases.
