This framework is beneficial for situation awareness or surrounded ground environment understanding, with the help of data processed by in-situ (on site) sensors. The preamble novel framework thus efficiently shares computational tasks by migrating workloads among war fighters mobile hand held devices, perhaps taking an account of timeliness of computational workload for successive resultant migration. Cloud computing methodology usage in past decade in IoT networks has provided on-demand access to shared computing resources pool (storage, applications, services and software) that are hosted in the cloud. These are easily provisioned when needed by any authorised device in need of them with minimal vendor interaction [16, 11]. The architecture of cloud computing model. The threat of insecurity of data transmitted between devices, service instability, and latency are major drawbacks of Cloud computing [Wb10]. As Cloud computing participant’s machines, may be many hops away from each other, some data packets can be lost or man in middle attacks can be done on the transmitted data. To reduce on the drawbacks of far way cloud, usage of cloudlets was proposed as it brought, a limited local Cloud nearby [17]. Fog computing pushes closer Cloud computing paradigm down to the edge network by processing data at fog nodes or IoT gateway. This has solved some of Cloud computing challenges such as high latency and failure ensure total location awareness [6,19]. These fog nodes can be deployed at factories, parks, health care units, transport stations [3]. Edge computing brings, even more, closer the intelligence and application logic past the fog nodes, as it directly does these computations at devices programmable automation controllers that are in the edge networks [Pt04]. This increases the infrastructure efficiency as it provides intermediate layers of computation, networking and storage closer to IoT devices [10]. Niroshinie et al [5] describe Mobile Cloud computing. MCC gives applications ability to be run on remote machines in the cloud so that they can be accessed by client mobile devices that use resources being served over an internet connection. MCC clusters resources in a peer network among mobile devices. This forms a local cloud of mobile devices in the vicinity that provides different services to each other. Mobile cloud computing enables mobile devices to use cloudlet computers with in the proximity, to carry out executions that would have been carried out in the cloud. Even though Mobile cloud computing reduces high latency and bandwidth usage when compared to Cloud computing though itself also has some drawbacks such as low reliability and privacy related issues [8]. Pahl et al [21] review about the impact container virtualization on edge devices when being placed into clusters. It focus on how Edge clouds could go tough computation to scattered lightweight assets close to users. They used containerization technology to build clusters that consisted of customized platforms of SBCs nodes, running different
containers with orchestration services that enabled the communication of these SBCs nodes in the clusters. Riccardo et al [13] proposes the designing of gateways used in Cloud of Things which distributes a collection of resources, enabled in a horizontal integration with various IoT platforms and applications. These gateways oversee, manage data from IoT devices and act as endpoint for communication between cloud data-centers and local devices. The proposed gateways in their study used container based virtualization which gave an improvement of 2.67%, 6.04% and 10% in CPU, memory performance and Disk I/O. Ramalho et al [15] study evaluates the performance difference between containerized based and the hypervisorbased virtualization at the network edge. The use of hypervisorbased virtualization had good results in regards of isolation in the last decade but containerization abilities such fast to boot up, fast migration and easy to maintain have taken virtualization to next level. Mist Computing (Mist) represents a paradigm in which edge network devices, that have predictable accessibility, provide their computational and communicative resources as services to their vicinity via Device-to-Device communication protocols. Requesters in Mist can distribute software processes to Mist service providers for execution [9]. Takahashi et al. [20] proposed Edge Accelerated web Browsing (EAB) prototype designed for web application execution using a better offloading technique. The purpose of EAB is to improve user experience by pushing application offloading to the edge server which is implemented within the RAN. EAB-frontend at the client-side retrieves the rendered web content which is processed in the EAB server, whereas, audio and video streams travel through the EAB-backend and are decoded depending on the capabilities of the client hardware. Sardellitti et al. [21] proposed an algorithm-based design, called Successive Convex Approximation (SCA). This algorithm optimizes computational offloading across densely deployed multiple radio access points. The authors considered the MIMO multicell communication system where several mobile users request for their computational tasks to be carried at the central cloud server. They first tested a single user offloading computational task on the cloud server which resulted in the non-convex optimization problem. In the multiuser scenario, the SCA-based algorithm attained local optimal solution of the original non-convex problem. According to the formulation results, authors claimed their algorithms to be surpassed disjoint optimization schemes. Moreover, they stated that the proposed SCA design is more suitable for applications acquiring high computational tasks and minimizes energy consumption. Zhang et al. [22] proposed the contract-based computation resource allocation scheme. This scheme improves the utility of vehicular terminals which intelligently utilize services offered by MEC service providers under low computational conditions. The MEC provider receives the payment from vehicles on the basis of the computation task

Using a wireless communication service, information of the contract and payment information is broadcasted to the vehicles on the road. Habak et al. [23] proposed the FemtoCloud system which forms a cloud of orchestrated co-located mobile devices that are self-configurable into a correlative mobile cloud system. A FemtoCloud client computing service is installed on each mobile device to calculate device computing capability and capacity for sharing with other mobile devices, and energy information. Mobile properties are built and maintained inside a user profile that is shared in a mobile cluster connected to a cloudlet or a control device that is available in a WiFi network. Intensive computational tasks in the form of codes are sent to cloudlets to leverage the computational capacity of other connected mobile devices. The FemtoCloud model is designed to reduce the computational load from the centralized location and bring it to the edge of the mobile network. Abdelwahab et al. [24] proposed REPLISOM which is a edge cloud architecture and LTE enhanced memory replication protocol to avoid latency issues. LTE bottleneck occurs due to allocating memory to a large number of IoT devices in the backend cloud servers. These devices offload computational tasks by replicating and transmitting tiny memory objects to a central cloud which makes IoT to be scalable and elastic. The LTE-integrated edge cloud provides its compute and storage resources at the edge to resource intensive services. Thus, the proposed REPLISOM reduces the stress of LTE by intelligently scheduling memory replication events at the LTE-edge to resolve any conflicts during the memory replication process for the radio resources. Nunna et al. [25] proposed a real-time contextaware collaboration system by combining MEC with 5G networks. By integrating MEC and 5G, it empowers realtime collaboration systems utilizing context-aware application platforms. These systems require context information combined with geographical information and low latency communication. The 4G network might not be capable to fulfill such requirements, instead 5G networks and MEC are proficient to utilize contextual information to provide real-time collaboration. The above suggested model is beneficial for scenarios such as life Remote Robotic Tele-surgery and Road Accident that demand high bandwidth and ultra low latency. Kumar et al. [26] proposed a vehicular delaytolerant network-based smart grid data management scheme. The authors investigated the use of Vehicular Delay-Tolerant Networks (VDTNs) to transmit data to multiple smart grid devices exploring the MEC environment. With the use of a store-and-carry forward mechanism for message transmission, the possible network bottleneck and data latency is avoided. Due to the high mobility of vehicles, a smart grid environment supported by MEC is used to monitor large data sets transmitted by several smart devices. According to the data movement, these devices make computation charging and discharging decisions with respect to message transmission delay, response time and high network throughput for movable vehicles.
Beck et al. [27] proposed ME-VoLTE which is an architecture that integrates MEC to voice over LTE. The encoding of video calls is offloaded to the MEC server located at the base station (eNodeB). The offloading of video encoding through external services helps escalating battery lifetime of the user equipment. Encoding is high computational-intensive and hence is very power consuming. In the proposed system, encoding techniques are wisely used to stream video on the MEC server. MEC transcodes video by using a special codec program before responding to the user device request. This phenomenon significantly increases data transmission and enhances power management. Jalali et al. [28] proposed a flow-based and time based energy consumption model. They conducted number of experiments for efficient energy consumption using centralized nano Data Centers (nDCs) in a cloud computing environment. The authors claim that nDCs energy consumption is not yet been investigated. Therefore, several models were presented to perform energy consumption tests on both shared and unshared network equipment. In the paper, it concludes that nDCs may lead to energy savings if the applications, especially IoT applications generate and process data within user premises. Jararweh et al. [29] proposed a Software Defined system for Mobile Edge Computing (SDMEC). The proposed framework connects software defined system components to MEC to further extend MCC capabilities. The components jointly work cohesively to enhance MCC into the MEC services. Working with Software Defined Networking (SDN), Software Defined Compute (SDCompute), Software Defined Storage (SDStorage), and Software Defined Security (SDSec) are the prime focus of the proposed framework which enables applications requiring compute and storage resources. Applications like traffic monitoring, content sharing and mobile gaming will benefit from SDMEC. El-Barbary et al. [30] proposed DroidCloudlet which is based on commodity mobile devices. DroidCloudlet is legitimized with resource-rich mobile devices that take the load of resource-constraint mobile devices. The purpose of the proposed architecture is to enhance mobile battery lifetime by migrating data-intensive and compute-intensive tasks to richmedia. DroidCloulet works as a client device or as a server device running an application that supplements resource-poor devices by offering their available resources. One of the devices takes the role of an agent which is responsible for coordinating resources with other groups of devices. 3.

RECOGNIZING FACE WITH CONSECUTIVE OCCLUSION USING MARKOV CHAIN G.Rajeswari Assistant Professor, Department of CSE, Sree Sowdambika College of Engineering, Aruppukottai, Tamil Nadu, India. Dr. P. Ithaya Rani Associate Professor, Department of CSE, Sethu Institute of Technology, Kariapatti, Tamil Nadu, India. Abstract- Face Recognition (FR) technology is software that can identify human face from any digital image/ video. In the real world, faces with occlusion such as sunglasses, scarf, mask etc., are quite common, especially in uncooperative scenario. The facial occlusion is one critical factor that affects the performance of face recognition. One cannot predict human face, when the face has been occluded. In recent years, Markov chain model a hotspot of dealing with face recognition under different illuminations and facial occlusions. The basic idea of Markov chain model is to recover clean images from degraded images or occluded images by using the clean training samples. Then the reconstructed images are used for face recognition. Note that the residual image which is a difference between the raw and reconstructed image containing most of the occluded information. In this paper two contributions are created for occlusion detection: i) a new occlusion detection method is presented by combining the information of both raw image and residual image; ii) the non-occluded part for face recognition has a better result than using reconstructed image is empirically displayed. The main objective of this paper is to get information.
And the nuclear norm based matrix regression (NMR) method proposed by Yang et al. significantly outperforms the other methods in recovering the clean image . All these method used the reconstructed images for classification. We consider the fact that the reconstructed images might remove some useful information and introduce some incidental information. Therefore, whether the reconstructed images are suitable for occluded face recognition needs study. During face recognition, the occluded face image may generate error. In this paper, the main goal is to know information about error in advance in sequential occlusion to get free from occlusion.
Keywords: Face recognition with occlusion, Markov Chain, residual image.
1. INTRODUCTION Face recognition technology is playing a more and more important role in our daily lives, such as access control, credit card verification, video surveillance etc. Many researchers developed many techniques and algorithms in FR. Even though, there comes a problem when the face is occluded. Nevertheless, the acquisition facial images might be occluded by other objects (sunglasses, scarf, mask etc.) which have a harmful effect on face recognition systems. In recent years, Markov Chain model were proposed to solve the occluded face recognition problem by recovering the clean image from one occluded image. These methods like linear regression classifier (LRC), sparse representation based classification (SRC) and collaborative representation based classification (CRC) all achieved expected results.
Fig.1: Example Training Data a) Occluded face image b) Normal face image 2. LITERATURE SURVEY In the literature of face recognition, traditional holistic feature based approaches are sensitive to outlier pixels, performing poorly against occlusion. Local feature based approaches are roughly divided into two categories in terms of patch-dependent or data-dependent. Combined with partial matching methods, the local features are more robust because they are not extracted from the entire image. Nonetheless, they are still inevitably affected by invalid pixels and far from being robust enough in practical classification tasks. An alternative solution addresses occlusion via a two-stage approach. It first identifies and discards the occluded pixels, and then performs the classification on the rest [1].

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY AND CREATIVE ENGINEERING (ISSN:2045-8711) VOL.8 NO.11 NOVEMBER 2018 As one can imagine, its classification performance is greatly determined by the occlusion identification accuracy. If too much discriminative information is abandoned, the following classification becomes difficult. To enhance the accuracy of occlusion identification, [2] adopts the prior that the occlusion is spatially continuous and consequently achieves excellent performance. However, such unsupervised approach might cause misestimate when occlusion is severe. For instance, a scarf larger than half of the testing face may be considered as a useful signal, and therefore face pixels may be discarded in each iteration. We call it a degenerate solution. Besides, the algorithm in [3] has to be carried out subject-by-subject and exhaustively search the class with the minimum normalized error, which is time-consuming and detrimental to real-time applications Recently, several occlusion dictionary based approaches [4] for robust face recognition have been attached more and more importance. This kind of method is capable of efficiently handling various occlusions. They exploit characteristics of non-occluded and occluded region, assuming that both of them can be coded over the corresponding part of dictionary [5]. These methods act in the similar way with each other. Concretely, an occlusion dictionary is concatenated to the original dictionary to perform occlusion coding. The goal is to jointly represent the occluded image. Fig. 1 illustrates how occlusion dictionary methods work. By seeking a sparse solution, the occluded image successfully decomposes into face and occlusion. The classification is carried out via the corresponding coefficients. Hence, they cast the recognition problem with occlusion as the one without occlusion, since occlusion is regarded as an extra and special class in training samples. On the other hand, these occlusion dictionary based approaches choose different occlusion dictionary, leading to very different performance. More specifically, sparse representationbased classification (SRC) [6] employs an identity matrix as the occlusion dictionary, showing promising robustness to random pixel corruption and small contiguous occlusion. exploits the local characteristics of Gabor feature, and proposes Gabor feature based sparse representation classification (GSRC). The Gabor feature of identity matrix exists high redundancy, so it can be compressed to a compact form for efficiency. Extended SRC (ESRC) [7] points out that intra-class variant dictionary contains useful information. By exploiting the difference images between two samples in the same class, ESRC can handle certain occlusion. The recent improvement is made by [8], namely structured sparse representation based classification (SSRC). They obtain common occlusion samples from occluded images with projection residuals, and utilize K-SVD to train occlusion dictionary, making appended occlusion atoms to be more representative. SSRC achieves higher accuracy in both recovery and recognition. Texture Features can be extracted using local binary pattern (LBP).
Markov chains have many applications as statistical models of real-world processes, such as studying cruise control systems in motor vehicles, queues or lines of customers arriving at an airport, exchange rates of currencies, storage systems such as dams, and population growths of certain animal species.[9] The algorithm known as PageRank, which was originally proposed for the internet search engine Google, is based on a Markov process. Furthermore, Markov processes are the basis for general stochastic simulation methods known as Gibbs sampling and Markov chain Monte Carlo, are used for simulating random objects with specific probability distributions, and have found extensive application in Bayesian statistics Hence, this work Markov chain model is proposed to recover clean images from degraded images or occluded images by using the clean training samples. Then the reconstructed images are used for face recognition. Note that the residual image which is a difference between the raw and reconstructed image containing most of the occluded information. In this paper two contributions are created for occlusion detection: i) a new occlusion detection method is presented by combining the information of both raw image and residual image; ii) the non-occluded part for face recognition has a better result than using reconstructed image is empirically displayed. The main objective of this paper is to get information about the error distribution in advance. 3. PROPOSED WORK
Formally, a Markov chain is a probabilistic automaton. The probability distribution of state transitions is typically represented as the Markov chain’s transition matrix. If the Markov chain has N possible states, the matrix will be an N x N matrix, such that entry (I, J) is the probability of transitioning from state I to state J. Additionally, the transition matrix must be a stochastic matrix, a matrix whose entries in each row must add up to exactly 1. This makes complete sense, since each row represents its own probability distribution. Fig.2: Sample Markov Chain, With States as Circles and Edges as Transitions As discussed above, face recognition can be cast as a problem of recovering an input signal x 2 Rn from corrupted measurements y = Ax + e, where A 2 Rm_n

Applying F to both sides of the measurement equation gives ~y := Fy = F(Ax + e) = Fe: So the recovery problem is reduced to the problem of reconstructing a sparse error vector e from the observation Fe. While this problem is very hard in general, in many situations solving the convex relaxation min kvk1 s.t. Fv = ~y= Fe exactly recovers e. Candes et. al. [6] have characterized the recoverability of the sparse solution to the above problem in terms of the restricted isometry property (RIP) of the matrix F. The k-restricted isometry constant _k 2 R is defined as the smallest quantity such that for any ksparse typical result states 1-minimization is guaranteed to recover any k-sparse x whenever the matrix F satisfies _2k < 1. Notice that this argument treats every possible k-sparse supports equally. However, in many applications, we have prior information about the distribution of the supports. To extend the theory to such structured sparsity, [8] introduced the (k; _)-probabilistic RIP (PRIP). A matrix F is said to satisfy the PRIP if there exists a constant _k > 0 such that for a k-sparse signal x whose support is a considered as a random variable, (2) holds with probability f1. Based on results from Compressed Sensing theory, for a randomly chosen matrix to have RIP of order k requires at least m = O(k log(n=k)) measurements [6]. However, it has been shown that a matrix can have PRIP of order k with only m = O(k + log(D)) measurements, where D is the cardinality of the smallest set of supports of size k for which the probability that the support of a ksparse signal x does not belong to the set is less than _ [8]. Then for distributions that allow a small D, the required number of measurements essentially grows linearly in k, much less than the general case. The distribution of contiguous supports precisely falls into this category3. Thus, we should expect to recover sparse errors with such supports from much fewer measurements. Or equivalently, from a fixed number measurements, we should expect to correct a larger fraction of errors from `1-minimization if we know how to properly harness information about the distribution.

In future Comprehensive experimental results show that Markov chain can better deal with face recognition with occlusion than most existing well-performing algorithms.
