UAV-assisted Xception-enhanced quantized CNN framework for forest-wild fire detection and impact assessment

Abstract The proposed work presents a convolutional neural network, hereafter referred to as CNN4WFD, based on transfer learning and built on an improved version of an Xception architecture, which is used to detect wildfires. A full preprocessing pipeline (comprising denoising, n...

IHFD: an improved heartbeat-based failure detector of $$\Diamond \,P$$ class for partially synchronous hierarchical distributed systems

Fundamentally, failure detectors are important for failure detection in distributed systems, particularly in partially synchronous environments, where message delays and process failures are unavoidable. This paper proposed an Improved Heartbeat-based Failure Detector (IHFD) for...
