Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The 7th International Conference on Big Data Computing and Communications (BIGCOM 2021) will be held from 13 to 15 August 2021 in Deqing, China. More information can be found by visiting the conference website (http://staff.ustc.edu.cn/~bigcom2021/index.html).

This conference will provide an important platform for scholars, engineers, and students to showcase their innovative research outcomes, transfer new knowledge, and boost interdisciplinary collaboration in areas of the frontier topics in theoretical and applied engineering and computer science.

Big Data lies at the center of modern science and technology, with major advances in analysis and learning from Big Data concurrently reshaping human knowledge, society, and the economy. The overwhelming amounts of data generated in many applications (fundamental sciences, cyber-physical systems, smart cities, sensor networks, and many more) alongside the urge for fast and effective handling and decision-making, in real-time, pose a number of significant challenges on the underlying system design and methods.

This Special Issue of Sensors (IF: 3.275, ISSN 1424-8220) will present a collection of outstanding papers presented at BIGCOM 2021. Conference participants are invited to submit extended versions of their conference papers to this Special Issue.

Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

Computing

Data-Intensive Parallel and Distributed Computing (Clouds, Clusters, Grids, P2P)
Performance Analysis of Big Data Tools and Applications
Computing on Network Edge
Large-scale Optimization Methods

Mining

Gesture recognition plays an important role in smart homes, such as human–computer interaction, identity authentication, etc. Most of the existing WiFi signal-based approaches exploit a large number of channel state information (CSI) datasets to train a gestures classification model; however, these models require a large number of human participants to train, and are not robust to the recognition environment. To address this problem, we propose a WiFi signal-based gesture recognition system with matched averaging federated learning (WiMA). Since there are differences in the distribution of WiFi signal changes caused by the same gesture in different environments, the traditional federated parameter average algorithm seriously affects the recognition accuracy of the model. In WiMA, we exploit the neuron arrangement invariance of neural networks in parameter aggregation, which can improve the robustness of the gesture recognition model with heterogeneous CSI data of different training environments. We carried out experiments with seven participant users in a distributed gesture recognition environment. Experimental results show that the average accuracy of our proposed system is up to 90.4%, which is very close to the accuracy of state-of-the-art approaches with centralized training models.

Motion recognition has a wide range of applications at present. Recently, motion recognition by analyzing the channel state information (CSI) in Wi-Fi packets has been favored by more and more scholars. Because CSI collected in the wireless signal environment of human activity usually carries a large amount of human-related information, the motion-recognition model trained for a specific person usually does not work well in predicting another person’s motion. To deal with the difference, we propose a personnel-independent action-recognition model called WiPg, which is built by convolutional neural network (CNN) and generative adversarial network (GAN). According to CSI data of 14 yoga movements of 10 experimenters with different body types, model training and testing were carried out, and the recognition results, independent of bod type, were obtained. The experimental results show that the average correct rate of WiPg can reach 92.7% for recognition of the 14 yoga poses, and WiPg realizes “cross-personnel” movement recognition with excellent recognition performance.
