Two-dimensional complex shear modulus imaging of soft tissues by integration of Algebraic Helmoltz Inversion and LMS filter into dealing with noisy data: a simulation study.

Elasticity and viscosity of soft tissues can be obtained from the complex shear modulus imaging (CSMI). CSMI is often used not only to investigate the structure of tissues but also to detect tumors in tissues. One of the most popular ways to categorize the methods used in CSMI is into quasi-static and dynamic methods.

Multi-Sensor Data Fusion in A Real-Time Support System for On-Duty Firefighters.

While working on fire ground, firefighters risk their well-being in a state where any incident might cause not only injuries, but also fatality. They may be incapacitated by unpredicted falls due to floor cracks, holes, structure failure, gas explosion, exposure to toxic gases, or being stuck in narrow path, etc. Having acknowledged this need, in this study, we focus on developing an efficient portable system to detect firefighter's falls, loss of physical performance, and alert high CO level by using a microcontroller carried by a firefighter with data fusion from a 3-DOF (degrees of freedom) accelerometer, 3-DOF gyroscope, 3-DOF magnetometer, barometer, and a MQ7 sensor using our proposed fall detection, loss of physical performance detection, and CO monitoring algorithms.
