Geometrically Efficient Sensor Placement for Enhanced Coverage in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Spatial Arrangement Algorithms Kaki Ramya Sree, Vinay Kumar Pamula International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks, 2026 Sensor placement is important for wireless sensor networks (WSNs) to obtain high coverage and energy efficiency. This paper presents a hybrid sensor deployment approach, in which circle packing theory is combined with an energy‐efficient clustering algorithm (LEACH‐C) for enhanced sensor coverage and energy efficiency. The proposed scheme is based on leveraging the geometric compactness of hexagonal spatial arrangements to decrease redundancy and communication overhead rather than conventional region‐based or metaheuristic‐based approaches. By applying LEACH‐C clustering, the network lifetime is improved via load balancing between nodes. Based on extended statistical and simulation‐based data, this approach shows better performance than classical placement methods in coverage efficiency, network longevity, and scalability. This method allows connecting geometric deployment models and practical applications of WSN while providing a scalable foundation for smart cities, environmental monitoring, and industrial automation applications.
IoT-Based Real-Time Water Quality Monitoring System for Natural Water Bodies Sravanthi Bondada, Vinay Kumar Pamula 2026 IEEE Bangalore Humanitarian Technology Conference B Htc 2026, 2026 Continuous monitoring of natural water bodies is essential for protecting aquatic ecosystems and ensuring sustainable water resource management. However, conventional laboratory-based testing methods are time consuming and unable to provide real-time insights during dynamic environmental changes. This paper presents the design and implementation of an Internet of Things (IoT)-based real time water quality monitoring system for natural water bodies. The proposed system integrates an Espressif System 32-bit (ESP32) microcontroller with multi-parameter sensors to measure potential of hydrogen (pH), total dissolved solids (TDS), turbidity, temperature, and water level, along with Global Positioning System (GPS)-based geo-tagging and Firebase cloud connectivity. A dual-storage mechanism using a Secure Digital (SD) card ensures uninterrupted data logging during network failures. The system was experimentally validated at Vadrevupally Pond, Manepalli Lake, and the Godavari River under both normal and flood conditions. Results demonstrate accurate real-time detection of spatial and temporal variations in water quality and effective classification of drinking and aquaculture suitability. The proposed solution is low-cost, portable, and suitable for rural and dynamic environmental monitoring applications.
Learning Emotions Across Modalities Through Hybrid Deep Representation Fusion Vanka Shireesha, Vinay Kumar Pamula, P. Satyanarayana Murty 7th International Conference on Innovative Trends in Information Technology Icitiit 2026, 2026 The recognition of emotion is an important element of emotion-aware intelligent systems, and unimodal methods are characterized by ambiguity and poor robustness. This paper refers to a hybrid deep learning model of multimodal emotion recognition that combines visual, audio, textual and physiological electrocardiogram (ECG) data to obtain correct and dependable emotion identification. The suggested framework uses modalityspecific deep feature extraction networks, which are utilized to retain discriminative emotional signals of every input modality. In order to fully utilise the complementary information, a hybrid fusion method is proposed, integrating feature-level and decisionlevel fusion in order to improve inter-modal representation learning. Decades of experiments on benchmark emotion datasets show that the suggested multimodal framework is always more efficient than unimodal and traditional fusion-based techniques in various categories of emotions. The findings indicate that hybrid fusion is efficient and that the addition of physiological signals will be valuable in the practical context of robust emotion recognition.
Efficient EEG motion artifact elimination framework for ambulatory epileptic seizure detection application Murali Krishna Y, Vinay Kumar P Biomedical Physics and Engineering Express, 2024 Motion artifacts are a pervasive challenge in EEG ambulatory monitoring, often obscuring critical neurological signals and impeding accurate seizure detection. In this study, we propose a new approach of outlier based grouping of two level Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) decomposition combined with Relative Total Variation (RTV) filter for the effective removal of motion-induced noise from ambulatory EEG data. A two-stage SSA method was employed to decompose single-channel EEG signal, which had been interfered with, into various fre quency bands. The affected sub-band signal was then subjected to an RTV filter to estimate the artifact signal. Subtracting this estimated artifact signal from the contaminated sub-band signal yielded the filtered sub-band signal. Subse quently, the filtered sub-band signal was reintegrated with the other decomposed components from noise-free bands, culminating in the generation of the ultimate denoised EEG signal. Based on the comprehensive set of simulation results, it can be deduced that the algorithm described in the paper outperforms existing methods. It demonstrates superior metrics evaluation in terms of ΔSNR, η , MAE, and PSNR when compared to these alternatives. Our framework sig- nificantly enhances the quality of EEG data by successfully eliminating motion artifacts while preserving crucial brainwave information. To evaluate the prac tical impact of this noise reduction technique, we assess its performance in the context of seizure detection. The results reveal a substantial improvement in the accuracy and reliability of seizure detection algorithms when applied to EEG data preprocessed with proposed method.
Performance of Periodic Nonlinear Weighted Jaya Optimization Algorithm for Energy Efficient Cluster Based Routing in WSNs Nageswararao Malisetti, Vinay Kumar Pamula 2024 IEEE 21st India Council International Conference Indicon 2024, 2024 The world of intelligent networks is significantly influenced by the internet of things (IoT). These technologies rely on a wireless sensor network (WSN) as a perception layer to gather the desired data. The challenge is the limited energy consumption required for processing and communication, as this data is transformed into information and transmitted to cloud servers via a base station. Energy use in sensor nodes becomes a crucial design problem in WSN since it is very hard for them to replace or recharge their batteries. For the network with limited energy, the clustering strategy is essential for power conservation. The network's load may be balanced, energy consumption can be reduced, and lifetime can be increased by selecting the right Cluster Head (CH). Based on the Periodic Nonlinear Weighted Jaya optimization method (PNLWJaya), a CH election strategy is put forward in this study. Thanks to the addition of nonlinear weight, the original Jaya method performs better when compared to the suggested Periodic Non-Linear Weighted Jaya optimization algorithm. The suggested technique is contrasted with a few benchmark methods for CH selection in terms of energy usage and sensor network lifetime. Based on simulation results, a CH selection scheme based on a Periodic Non-Linear Weighted Jaya optimization algorithm is more successful than LEACH, LEACH-E, PSO-C, and the original Jaya method by 85%, 75%, 65%, and 12%, respectively, in terms of network longevity.
Implementation of Memristor-Inspired Amplifier in Digital Logic Circuits Venga Babu Veturi, Vinay Kumar Pamula Iemecon 2024 12th International Conference on Internet of Everything Microwave Embedded Communication and Networks, 2024 In this paper, we present the design, implementation, and evaluation of digital logic circuits using memristor-based technology. The focus is on basic gates, a 2 × 1 multiplexer (MUX), a full adder, a full subtractor, and an amplifier, all implemented using the Cadence Virtuoso platform. The memristor model employed here shows significant improvements in power efficiency, area reduction, and speed compared to traditional 45-nm CMOS technologies. Our results demonstrate that memristor-based circuits can achieve up to 71.4% reduction in area, 40% reduction in power consumption, and 54% reduction in delay, highlighting the potential of memristor technology for future low-power, high-performance digital systems.
S-CIEL ∗a∗b∗ Based Quality Assessment of Images Restored from Non-Gaussian-Noise-Corrupted-Images and Non-Linear-Bilateral-Kernel Based Restoration Prabhakar Rao Barre, Shraddha Prasad, Vinay Kumar Pamula, Raja Rao Chatla, Mahendra Babu Duddu, John Paul Pulipati Proceedings of 2024 IEEE International Women in Engineering Wie Conference on Electrical and Computer Engineering Wiecon Ece 2024, 2024 Most widely used image-quality-assessment- metrics viz., Cumulative Minimum-Mean-Square-Error (CMMSE) and Cumulative Peak-Signal-to-noise-ratio (CPSNR) do not satisfactorily measure the quality of image-restoration. As it is an observed empirical fact amongst the fraternity of researchers that a difference of ten or even twenty percentage in SNR may not at all translate into any difference in the perceivable image quality. And, by some construction, images that have similar PSNR but of drastically different attributes can conceivably created. This challenge is addressed empirically in this study by using S-CIEL*a*b* image-assessment-quality-metrics. Of course, spatially extended CIEL*a*b* (S-CIEL*a*b*) is primarily used to represent colors numerically and to calculate the color differences for the scholarly reason that the human vision can perceive millions of color differences; but no technology can meaningfully replicate the ability of human eye as closer as the CIEL*a*b* can perform. Another unique feature of the research study is that the restoration is achieved from the non-Gaussian-noise-corrupted-natural images. It is an observed fact that linear filters blur the restored image; here in this investigative study the non-linear-bilateral filter technique is implemented in order to establish the superior performance of the said assumptions and objectives of the study. The standard datasets are used for carrying the experimentation.
