3D-RABLC:a novel refinement algorithm based on LQI confidence for three-dimensional localization by Jian SHU, Lin-lan LIU, Yu-bin CHEN, Jia-jie GONG

“…A novel refinement algorithm based on LQI confidence for three-dimensional localization (3D-RABLC)was proposed.LQI confidence was obtained in terms of the relationships between RSSI and one hop distance,LQI and packet error rate(PER),which derived from experimental data.The measured RSSI was filtered by LQI confidence.Moreover,the RSSI with lower confidence was modified by a three-dimensional multi-hop model or a compensating refinement method.The experiment results show that the algorithm reduces the RSSI range error,and improves the accuracy of three-dimensional localization significantly.…”

Frequent-pattern discovering algorithm for large-scale corpus by GONG Cai-chun1, HE Min1, CHEN Hai-qiang1, XU Hong-bo1, CHENG Xue-qi1

“…A memory-based frequent-pattern discovering algorithm for large-scale corpus was presented.First,the origi-nal corpus was partitioned into several parts using appropriate dividing policy.Then each partition was processed inde-pendently to produce a temporary result,and the union of all temporary results is the final frequent-pattern set.The algo-rithm prunes a subtree once it is sure that none of the corresponding pattern will be frequent.Experiment shows that it takes no more than 1.6 gigabytes of memory to discover all patterns appearing more than 100 times for a 3.6 gigabytes news corpus,the average speed is 3.28 magabytes per second.…”
