Keynote Sessions

Keynote #1: Toward a Sustainable Future

  • "Sustainable development (SD) is the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.", according to the United Nations (UN).

  • What are the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by UN (or known as UNSDGs)?

  • In fact, for the first time since the adoption of UNSDGs, it was noted that the global average SDG Index score for 2020 has decreased.

  • The talk is about the journey of sustainability and how the use of technology, its impact, and our role as scientist/engineers/technologist in making the world we live in a better place and to ensure the UNSDGs 2030 are realizable.

Keynote #2: Deep Learning for Image Classification: Application to Astronomical Archive

  • The advancement of astronomical instruments has resulted in a large volume of scientific data. This has made astronomy into a pioneer of Big Data.

  • How effective is deep learning for the classification of planetary nebulae (PNe)? How do we distinguish PNe from other types of objects, and classify them morphologically?

  • We adopted the deep transfer learning approach using three ImageNet pre-trained algorithms using images from the Hong Kong/Australian Astronomical Observatory/Strasbourg Observatory H-alpha Planetary Nebula research platform database (HASH DB) and from the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS).

Keynote #3: Cyber-Physical Human Centric Framework for Society 5.0

  • Japan will take the lead to realize a super-smart society, Society 5.0 ahead of the rest of the world. What is Society 5.0?

  • Introduction to Cyber-Physical Human Centric Framework using the CPS approach, as a current trend of IoT for the promising smart homes.

  • Dependability as an essential measure of system ability. How dependable is the Cyber-Physical Human Centric Framework?

Keynote #4: Indoor/Outdoor Localization Techniques using Radio Frequency Engineering

  • Localization accuracy enhancement using Time of Arrival (TOA) estimation technique over OFDM wide-band spectrum.

  • A low cost-effective method of tracking and monitoring for patient/ elderly people, by employing passive radio frequency identification (RFID) systems.

  • Implementation scheme for a wideband transmission and direction finding system (Angle of Arrival AOA) using OFDM multi-carrier communications systems over adverse channel conditions.
