Using country-level variables to classify countries according to the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases: An unsupervised machine learning approach.
TL;DR: A simple data-driven approach using available global information before the CO VID-19 pandemic, seemed able to classify countries in terms of the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases, but the model was not able to stratify countries based on COvid-19 mortality data.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Empirical Study of the Transmission Power Setting for Bluetooth-Based Indoor Localization Mechanisms.
Manuel Castillo-Cara,Manuel Castillo-Cara,Jesús Lovón-Melgarejo,Gusseppe Bravo-Rocca,Luis Orozco-Barbosa,Ismael García-Varea +5 more
TL;DR: This paper focuses on the tuning of the RSSI fingerprint to be used in the implementation of a Bluetooth Low Energy 4.0 (BLE4.0) Bluetooth localization mechanism and shows that this proposal can greatly improve the localization accuracy by setting a custom transmission power level for each BLE4.
Using country-level variables to classify countries according to the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases: An unsupervised machine learning approach [version 1;peer review: awaiting peer review]

Journal ArticleDOI
Comparative Study of Supervised Learning and Metaheuristic Algorithms for the Development of Bluetooth-Based Indoor Localization Mechanisms
Jesús Lovón-Melgarejo,Manuel Castillo-Cara,Oscar Huarcaya-Canal,Luis Orozco-Barbosa,Ismael García-Varea +4 more
TL;DR: This paper investigates the characterization of Bluetooth signals behavior using 12 different supervised learning algorithms as a first step toward the development of fingerprint-based localization mechanisms, and explores the use of metaheuristics to determine the best radio power transmission setting evaluated in terms of accuracy and mean error of the localization mechanism.
