Wireless Sensor Networks: A survey monitoring water quality

Wireless Sensor Networks: A survey monitoring water quality Electrical, Computer and Telecommunication Engineering Department of Botswana International University of Science and Technology Palapye Botswana 28 th April 2016   (07) With the development of the world and the changes occurring in the nature, the water resources are getting highly degraded. So the researchers have to do many investigations for monitoring the quality of water for various usages. With regarding the above survey, they have conducted the studies examining the water quality by using wireless sensor networks. These networks were relatively affordable and allowed measurements to be taken remotely in real time and with minimum human intervention. As they monitored air, forest and climatology, they were able to use wireless sensor networks. But in our project we are using wired sensor networks because we need high s...

A Survey on Data Mining and Pattern Recognition Techniques for Soil Data Mining

                                                         This research work aims to compare the performance of the data mining algorithms with soil limitations and soil conditions in respect of the following characteristics: Acidity, Alkalinity and sodality, Salinity, Phosphorus fixation, cracking and swelling properties, Depth, Soil density and Nutrient content. This overall process of finding useful knowledge in raw data involves the following steps: 1.      Developing an understanding of the application domain 2.      Creating a target dataset based on an intelligent way of selecting data by focusing on a subset of variables or data samples 3.      Data cleaning and pre–processing 4.      Data reduction and projection 5.      Choo...

Pipe Failure Prediction

                                                                 Pipe breaks in urban water distribution network lead to significant economic and social costs, putting the service quality as well as the profit of water utilities at risk. In this method we use Data mining prediction method to detect pipe failures. For this prediction they used raw dataset provided by the water utility consists of records of over 500,000 water pipes, adding up to almost 6,000 kilometers in length. In here pipe break prediction task as a ranking problem, which tries to rank pipes according to their break risks, without estimating the true risks.                                                         ...

Scalable Graph Exploration and Visualization: Sensemaking Challenges and Opportunities Robert Pienta, James Abello, Minsuk Kahng, Duen Horng Chau - Georgia Institute of Technology { pientars, kahng, polo } @gatech.edu Rutgers University abello@dimacs.rutgers.edu       1. INTRODUCTION In many domains, data sets can be often represented as graphs or networks, as in online social networks, network traffic, intelligence analysis, and online auctions. In this survey, they have used the terms graph and network interchangeably. Today, making sense of large graphs remains a fundamental challenge, with few tools that allow users to interactively explore, visualize, and understand million-scale graphs. Graph sensemaking Graph sensemaking is a complex and abstract task. It refers to the iterative process of understanding and making sense out of data in graph format, where a user gradually builds u...
