This paper presents an approach towards a mobile learning environment, which is flexible in terms of supported scenarios, supported devices and input channels. The approach makes use of existing and commonly used channels like SMS, Twitter or Face book to increase acceptance and ease-of-use of mobile devices in learning scenarios. Envisaged application scenarios are described along with technical details for their realization.
In the presented work we compare machine learning techniques in the context of lane change behavior performed by humans in a semi-naturalistic simulated environment. We evaluate different learning approaches using differing feature combinations in order to identify appropriate feature, best feature combination, and the most appropriate machine learning technique for the described task. Based on the data acquired from human drivers in the traffic simulator NISYS TRS 1 , we trained a recurrent neural network, a feed forward neural network and a set of support vector machines. In the followed test drives the system was able to predict lane changes up to 1.5 sec in beforehand.
In recent years the diversity and the ownership of mobile devices steadily increased while the prices for this kind of devices decreased to a level that allows many students to own reasonably powerful devices. As mobile devices are also being used in learning scenarios, the challenge of today is the integration of multiple heterogeneous devices into existing and upcoming learning scenarios. This paper describes an architecture that allows easy integration of various kinds of mobile and non-mobile devices. The presented architecture will be exemplified by a group discussion scenario in a heterogeneous learning environment. The paper concludes with the description of a pilot study using the described system.
In the field of magnetic inductance tomography,
signal processing is a real challenge. This is due to the divergent
nature of magnetic fields. The sensitivity, i.e. the change in the
receiving signal by means of an electrically conductive sample
in a measuring volume depends strongly on the positioning
of the sample. Objects that are located near the transmitting
or receiving coils are very well locatable, where objects in
larger distance are hard to detect. In this paper an approach
is presented that improves the topology of the magnetic fields
in the ”magnetic induction tomography” (MIT) by changing
geometric constructions and current patterns of coils so far,
as to allow a sharper localization of objects within the space.
The aim is to level the distribution of the sensitivity in the
measuring volume, so that electrically conductive objects with
a larger distance between transmitting and receiving unit can
be detected with almost the same signal intensity as objects
close to the transmitting and receiving unit. The simulation tool
Comsolic is used for the geometric modeling making a finite
element analysis (FEA). The subsequent signal processing and
analysis of the simulation results are implemented in Matlabic .
Within this FEA the coil geometries and current patterns are
changed numerically, so that the minimum object size, that is
still detectable, is, compared to the known MIT, reduced and the
sensitivity of the system is improved. To validate the simulation in
Comsolic , first simulation results are compared with analytical
models and analyses.
