    QuateXelero : an accelerated exact network motif detection algorithm

    No full text
    Finding motifs in biological, social, technological, and other types of networks has become a widespread method to gain more knowledge about these networks’ structure and function. However, this task is very computationally demanding, because it is highly associated with the graph isomorphism which is an NP problem (not known to belong to P or NP-complete subsets yet). Accordingly, this research is endeavoring to decrease the need to call NAUTY isomorphism detection method, which is the most time-consuming step in many existing algorithms. The work provides an extremely fast motif detection algorithm called QuateXelero, which has a Quaternary Tree data structure in the heart. The proposed algorithm is based on the well-known ESU (FANMOD) motif detection algorithm. The results of experiments on some standard model networks approve the overal superiority of the proposed algorithm, namely QuateXelero, compared with two of the fastest existing algorithms, G-Tries and Kavosh. QuateXelero is especially fastest in constructing the central data structure of the algorithm from scratch based on the input network

    Design and application of a distributed optical fibre dynamic strain sensor

    No full text
    Over the past two decades, distributed optical fibre sensors (DOFS) based on Brillouin and Raman scattering have been extensively studied. As a result, a wide range of distributed temperature and strain sensors with different sensing range and accuracy levels have been developed. However, due to the weak nature of Brillouin and Raman scattering, most of the research in this field has been focused on DC or quasi-DC measurement of temperature and strain. On the other hand, the Rayleigh-based DOFS which have been previously proposed are only able to detect dynamic disturbances along the sensing fibre. In this thesis, a new sensing technique has been developed which is capable of quantifying and tracking multiple dynamic perturbations along the sensing fibre, simultaneously.The sensing mechanism of the proposed technique relies on the phase of the Rayleigh backscattered light. For any given segment along the fibre, the difference in the phase of the backscattered light radiating from the two ends of that segment changes as a function of the external perturbations at that segment. Therefore, dynamic vibration along the sensing fibre can be extracted by comparing the phase of the backscattered light from two different sections of the sensing fibre. By implementing this technique using an imbalanced Mach-Zehnder Interferometer (IMZI), a distributed sensor was developed that was capable of quantifying dynamic perturbations within the frequency range of 200Hz ~5kHz along a 1km sensing fibre.Furthermore, the same principle was used to develop a distributed magnetic field sensor. By coupling an optical fibre to a magnetostrictive wire and by using this combination as a magnetic field to strain transducer, a distributed magnetic field sensor was formed with magnetic intensity range of 1Gs - 8Gs and frequency range of 50Hz ~5kHz. In addition, the IMZI arrangement was used as a frequency-to-intensity convertor to develop a distributed dynamic strain sensor based on Brillouin scattering. The proposed sensor exhibited a strain range of 400 µ.epsilon 4 m.epsilon and a sensing range of 2km.<br/

    Mapping vibration and strain using fibre optic sensors

    Distributed optical fibre sensors (DOFS) presents unique features that have no match in conventional sensing techniques. The ability to measure physical phenomenon such as temperatures and strain at thousands of points along a single fibre in harsh an inaccessible environments is particularly interesting for the monitoring of structures such as pipelines, flow lines, oil wells and coiled tubing. Despite a steady improvement in the performance of DOFS, most of the research has been focused on advancing DC and quasi-DC distributed sensors. Recently, we have managed design and test a distributed sensor which is capable of fully quantifying dynamic disturbances along the sensing fibre such as acoustic perturbations. Using a technique known as optical time-domain reflectometry (OTDR), the sensor has been used to measure the frequency components of multiple disturbances along a 1km sensing fibre simultaneously
