- 3D PARTICLE SYSTEMS FOR AUDIO APPLICATIONSPublication . Fonseca, NunoAlthough particle systems are well know for their use in computer graphics, their application in sound is very rare or almost non-existent. This paper presents a conceptual model for the use of particle systems in audio applications, using a full rendering system with virtual microphones: several virtual particles are spread over a virtual 3D space, where each particle reproduces one of the available audio streams (or a modified version), and the overall sound is captured by virtual microphones. Such system can be used on several audio-related areas like sound design, 3D mixing, reverb/impulse response design, granular synthesis, audio up-mixing, and impulse response up-mixing.
- 802.21-MPA-IMS ArchitecturePublication . Rodrigues, Carlos Miguel de Jesus; Rabadão, Carlos; Pereira, AntónioMobility has become a keyword nowadays with the evolution of mobile devices market and proliferation of realtime services. IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is a single, standardized service framework that supports voice, video, data and messaging services, but does not provide seamless mobility for packet based sessions. This paper purposes an IMS architecture with IEEE 802.21 and media-independent pre-authentication (MPA) integrated. IEEE 802.21 can enable this seamless mobility in IMS and, additionally, MPA provides a secure handover optimization scheme, reducing, as a consequence, handover latency. The main goal of this architecture is to provide seamless and secure handovers between different access technologies in an IMS-based environment.

- Advanced technologies for shoe sole productionPublication . Spahiu, Tatjana; Almeida, Henrique; Ascenso, Rita M. T.; Vitorino, Liliana; Marto, AnabelaAdvanced technologies for modelling and production are an important part in the whole process of product manufacturing. These advancements have changed the way of product development and play an important role in customization. In the footwear industry, as in any other industry, the use of these technologies is widely spread. Footwear comfort is one of the main selection criteria for purchase. Considering this fact, a case study of different steps for shoe designing according to individual foot shape will be presented. Taking into consideration the aesthetics of the sole and in a more sustainable view, through topological optimization reducing of material wastage for sole production will be presented. By means of the topological optimization in the shoe design process, sole optimization is realized. As a part of personalization, feet’s plantar pressure maps taken from 1 participant gave a better explanation of weight distribution of each foot. Following, sole personalization according the plantar pressure maps for each foot gives the possibility to obtain the best least material design according to the feet’s pressure while maintaining biomechanical performance.
- AMIGA - An Interactive Musical Environment for GerontechnologyPublication . Reis, Lee Scott; Reis, Gustavo; Barroso, João; Pereira, AntónioBenefits provided by music in humans have been reinforced through several studies, mainly by active participation in musical therapy sessons, with surprising results in physical and psychological rehabilitation. However, all the previous implemented approaches require specialized hardware to function and complex configurations to set-up. We define a computational system focused on the elderly to allow musical expressiveness through motion, solely using the resources available in an ordinary home computer. To evaluate our approach, we developed a prototype and piloted acceptance tests on several senior citizens, with an average age of eighty-three. Our experiments showed high levels of interest from the senior citizens, denoting positive capabilities of well-being and life quality enrichment. The performed experiments have also shown that an ordinary computer is capable of performing the proposed methodology, without any restriction.
- Benchmarking bioinspired machine learning algorithms with CSE-CIC-IDS2018 network intrusions datasetPublication . Ferreira, Paulo; Antunes, MárioThis paper aims to evaluate CSE-CIC-IDS2018 network intrusions dataset and benchmark a set of supervised bioinspired machine learning algo rithms, namely CLONALG Artificial Immune System, Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) and Back-Propagation Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP). The results obtained were also compared with an ensemble strategy based on a majority voting algorithm. The results obtained show the appropri ateness of using the dataset to test behaviour based network intrusion de tection algorithms and the efficiency of MLP algorithm to detect zero-day attacks, when comparing with CLONALG and LVQ.
- Big Data Analytics in IOT: Challenges, Open Research Issues and ToolsPublication . Constante, Fabián; Silva, Fernando; Herrera, Boris; Pereira, AntónioTerabytes of data are generated day-to-day from modern information systems, cloud computing and digital technologies, as the increasing number of Internet connected devices grows. However, the analysis of these massive data requires many efforts at multiple levels for knowledge extraction and decision making. Therefore, Big Data Analytics is a current area of research and development that has become increasingly important. This article investigates cutting-edge research efforts aimed at analyzing Internet of Things (IoT) data. The basic objective of this article is to explore the potential impact of large data challenges, research efforts directed towards the analysis of IoT data and various tools associated with its analysis. As a result, this article suggests the use of platforms to explore big data in numerous stages and better understand the knowledge we can draw from the data, which opens a new horizon for researchers to develop solutions based on open research challenges and topics. © Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018.
- Blind Guide: An Ultrasound Sensor-based Body Area Network for Guiding Blind PeoplePublication . Pereira, António; Nunes, Nelson; Vieira, Daniel; Costa, Nuno; Fernandes, Hugo; Barroso, JoãoWireless Sensor Networks, in particular Wireless Body Area Networks, is a technology suggested by the research community as allowing elderly people, or people with some kind of disability, to live in a safer, responsive and comfortable environment while at their homes. One of the most active threats to the autonomous life of blind people is the quantity and variety of obstacles they face while moving, whether they are obstacles in the footpath or obstacles coming out from the walls of buildings. Hence, it is necessary to develop a solution that helps or assists blind people while moving either in indoor or outdoor scenarios, simultaneously allowing the use of the use of white cane or the Seeing Eye dog. In this article, the authors propose the use of an ultra-sound based body area network for obstacle detection and warning as a complementary and effective solution for aiding blind people when moving from place to place. According to the cost estimates of the solution and to the negligible setup time, this could be a real effective complementary solution for blind people.
- CGP4Matlab - A Cartesian Genetic Programming MATLAB Toolbox for Audio and Image ProcessingPublication . Miragaia, Rolando; Jorge dos Reis, Gustavo Miguel; Fernandéz, Francisco; Inácio, Tiago; Grilo, CarlosThis paper presents and describes CGP4Matlab, a powerful toolbox that allows to run Cartesian Genetic Programming within MATLAB. This toolbox is particularly suited for signal processing and image processing problems. The implementation of CGP4Matlab, which can be freely downloaded, is described. Some encouraging results on the problem of pitch estimation of musical piano notes achieved using this toolbox are also presented. Pitch estimation of audio signals is a very hard problem with still no generic and robust solution found. Due to the highly flexibility of CGP4Matlab, we managed to apply a new cartesian genetic programming based approach to the problem of pitch estimation. The obtained results are comparable with the state of the art algorithms. © Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2018.
- CoAP Flow Signatures for the Internet of ThingsPublication . Canuto, Luis; Santos, Leonel; Vieira, Leandro; Goncalves, Ramiro; Rabadão, CarlosThe development of technology brought an exponential evolution of IoT networks, and with a number of different devices connected to the Internet, meaning, more IP addresses, traffic and devices susceptible to attacks. These types of networks are characterized by their interoperability and low resources, making it a complex ecosystem and making it difficult to implement management and monitoring measures, leading to a lack of security. Considering the impact that IoT networks have on the market, their protection is essential and, is now one of the themes in constant evolution. With the focus on security, this work aims to characterize a CoAP and CoAPS signatures, through the analysis of a flow in a test scenario and recognize the types of messages of the signature and what is their impact on the network and later creating rules that could help an IDS, in order to save resources and time. When analyzing the flows, it was concluded that it is possible to identify some characteristics of a signature, such as identifying Confirmable and Non-Confirmable messages.
