Previous study implies that sector angle affects greatly on designing fishbone network. Finite Set of nodes arranges to sense the physical condition of any system is called wireless sensor. Our designed fishbone network can be potentially applied for a wireless sensing system to formulate a whole network. The network is a novel design which has been finalized by comparing sector angle. Analysis takes place by varying packet delay according to sink speed. Future analysis takes place for Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE). Latency of Packet and its size is the measurement criteria of any network or service is called Quality of Service (QoS). On the other hand the user experience of using the designed network is called Quality of Experience (QoE). Our designed network has been analyzed in TCP Tracer to find out the latency or packet delay for different users. The user data has been shorted and equated among them for latency with different no of packets. Our proposed spiral fishbone network shows better QoS and QoE. In future more nodes can be added to design extended fishbone network for wireless.展开更多

The most widely used method for inferring functional connectivity is Pearson＇s correlation, but it cannot differentiate direct and indirect effects. This disadvantage is often avoided by computing the partial correlation between two regions controlling all other regions, but this method suffers from Berkson＇s paradox. Some advanced methods, such as regularised inverse covariance, have been applied. However, these methods usually depend on some parameters. Here we propose use of minimum partial correlation as a parameter-free measure for the skeleton of functional connectivity in functional magnetic resonance imaging （flVIRI）. The minimum partial correlation between two regions is the minimum of absolute values of partial correlations by controlling all possible subsets of other regions. Theoretically, there is a direct effect between two regions if and only if their minimum partial correlation is non-zero under faithfulness and Gaussian assumptions. The elastic PC-algorithm is designed to efficiently approximate minimum partial correlation within a computational time budget. The simulation study shows that the proposed method outperforms others in most cases and its application is illustrated using a resting-state fMRI dataset from the human connectome project.展开更多
