Indoor localization is one of the key techniques for location-based services (LBSs), which play a significant role in applications in confined spaces, such as tunnels and mines. To achieve indoor localization in confined spaces, the channel state information (CSI) of WiFi can be selected as a feature to distinguish locations due to its fine-grained characteristics compared with the received signal strength (RSS). In this paper, two indoor localization approaches based on CSI fingerprinting were designed: amplitude-of-CSI-based indoor fingerprinting localization (AmpFi) and full-dimensional CSI-based indoor fingerprinting localization (FuFi). AmpFi adopts the amplitude of the CSI as the localization fingerprint in the offline phase, and in the online phase, the improved weighted K-nearest neighbor (IWKNN) is proposed to estimate the unknown locations. Based on AmpFi, FuFi is proposed, which considers all of the subcarriers in the MIMO system as the independent features and adopts the normalized amplitudes of the full-dimensional subcarriers as the fingerprint. AmpFi and FuFi were implemented on a commercial network interface card (NIC), where FuFi outperformed several other typical fingerprinting-based indoor localization approaches.

This paper presents a comparative study of different AI models for indoor positioning systems, emphasizing improvements in localization accuracy and processing time. This study examines Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and the Kalman filter using a real Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) and 9-axis ICM-20948 sensor. An in-depth analysis is provided in this paper for data cleaning and feature selection to reduce errors for all the models.

With the advent of the 5G era, high-precision localization based on mobile communication networks has become a research hotspot, playing an important role in indoor emergency rescue in shopping malls, smart factory management and tracking, as well as precision marketing. However, in complex environments, non-line-of-sight (NLOS) propagation reduces the measurement accuracy of 5G signals, causing large deviations in position solving. In order to obtain high-precision position information, it is necessary to recognize the propagation state of the signal before distance measurement or angle measurement.

Indoor residual spraying (IRS) and the use of insecticide-treated bednets for malaria vector control have contributed substantially to a reduction in malaria disease burden. However, these control tools have important shortcomings including being donor-dependent, expensive, and often failing because of insufficient uptake. We assessed the safety and efficacy of a user-friendly, locally tailored malaria vector control approach dubbed "Hut Decoration for Malaria Control" (HD4MC) based on the incorporation of a WHO-approved insecticide, Actellic 300 CS, into a customary hut decoration practice in rural Uganda where millions of the most vulnerable and malaria-prone populations live in mud-walled huts.

Background/objectives: The health of migrant populations is strongly influenced by social, cultural, and environmental factors. Promoting health literacy (HL) is essential to empower these populations and reduce health inequalities. We aimed to assess the perceptions and behaviors of migrants residing in a neighborhood within a municipality in the Metropolitan Area of Lisbon regarding health risks arising from environmental conditions, as well as to determine their level of health literacy.

The integration of artificial intelligence into daily life significantly enhances the autonomy and quality of life of visually impaired individuals. This paper introduces the Visual Impairment Spatial Awareness (VISA) system, designed to holistically assist visually impaired users in indoor activities through a structured, multi-level approach. At the foundational level, the system employs augmented reality (AR) markers for indoor positioning, neural networks for advanced object detection and tracking, and depth information for precise object localization.
