This paper proposes an augmented online approach to detect kidnapping events within range-finder-based indoor localization. The method is specifically designed for an Internet of Things (IoT)-Aided Robotics Platform that enables the system to detect kidnapping across all time instances of an indoor mobile robotic operation with high accuracy and maintain a high accuracy in the face of relocalization failures. The approach is based on similarity degree of geometry shape of the environment obtained from range scan data between two consecutive time instances. The proposed approach named Quasi-Standardized Two-Dimensional Dynamic Time Warping (QS-2DDTW) is based on the Multidimensional Dynamic Time Warping (MD-DTW) with homogeneity variance test imbued in it. A series of simulations are preformed against maximum current weight, measurement entropy, and the four metrics in metric based detector. The result shows that the proposed method yields high performance in terms of its ability to distinguish kidnapping condition from normal condition and that it has low dependency towards relocalization process, thus ensures the accuracy of detection is not disturbed by relocalization.

Traditional gun archiving methods are mostly carried out through bullets’ physics or photography, which are inefficient and difficult to trace, and cannot meet the needs of large-scale archiving. Aiming at such problems, a rapid archival technology of bullets based on graph convolutional neural network has been studied and developed. First, the spot laser is used to take the circle points of the bullet rifling traces. The obtained data is filtered and noise-reduced to make the corresponding line graph, and then the dynamic time warping (DTW) algorithm convolutional neural network model is used to perform the processing on the processed data. Not only is similarity matched, the rapid matching of the rifling of the bullet is also accomplished. Comparison of experimental results shows that this technology has the advantages of rapid archiving and high accuracy. Furthermore, it can be carried out in large numbers at the same time, and is more suitable for practical promotion and application.

Motor neuron patients such as paralysis, locking syndrome, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis can see and hear what is happening in their environment, but cannot communicate with their environment. It is very important for these patients, who do not have any physical function other than eye movements, to be able to express their needs, feelings and thoughts. Therefore, to express the thoughts, needs and feelings of these patients, a system that converts eye-blink signals to speech was developed in this study. The main purpose of the designed system is high accuracy, low cost, high speed and independence from environmental factors. Undoubtedly, it is also very important that it causes as little discomfort to the patient as possible. Morse-coded signals generated by voluntary eye-blinks and the single-channel wireless NeuroSky MindWave Mobile device eliminates the need for cost-increasing equipment such as a camera or eye tracker and environmental factors such as light. With the use of Dynamic Time Warping (DTW), an algorithm which works at high speed and high accuracy at the time domain and does not require any training process has been implemented. In this way, the recorded speech was performed with a quite impressive accuracy.

Every year, injuries associated with fall incidences cause lots of human suffering and assets loss for Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients. Thereinto, freezing of gait (FOG), which is one of the most common symptoms of PD, is quite responsible for most incidents. Although lots of researches have been done on characterized analysis and detection methods of FOG, large room for improvement still exists in the high accuracy and high efficiency examination of FOG. In view of the above requirements, this paper presents a template-matching-based improved subsequence Dynamic Time Warping (IsDTW) method, and experimental tests were carried out on typical open source datasets. Results show that, compared with traditional template-matching and statistical learning methods, proposed IsDTW not only embodies higher experimental accuracy (92%) but also has a significant runtime efficiency. By contrast, IsDTW is far more available in real-time practice applications.
