Abstract Waste management and monitoring is a major concern in the context of the environment, and has a significant impact on human health. The concept of the Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT) can help people in everyday tasks in life. This study proposes a smart trash bin to help solve the problem of waste management and monitoring. Traditional methods of garbage disposal require human labor, and pose a hazard to the worker. The proposed smart garbage bin can move itself by using ultrasonic sensors and a web camera, which serves as its “eyes.” Because the smart More >

Abstract An adaptive extended Kalman filter is developed and investigated for a transient heat transfer problem in which a high heat flux spot source is applied on one side of a thin plate and ultrasonic pulse time of flight is measured between spatially separated transducers on the opposite side of the plate. The novel approach is based on the uncertainty in the state model covariance and leverages trends in the extended Kalman filter covariance to drive changes to the state model covariance during convergence. This work is an integral part of an effort to develop a… More >
