Azure IoT




Azure IoT Hub is a scalable, multi-tenant cloud platform (IoT PaaS) that includes an IoT device registry, data storage, and security. It also provides a service interface to support IoT application development. Azure IoT helps you to securely connect millions of Linux, iOS, Android, Windows, and real-time operating system (RTOS) devices to reliably send telemetry and receive commands from application back-end in the cloud


  • IoT Hub helps connect your devices to Azure
  • Millions of simultaneously connected devices
  • Per-device authentication
  • High throughput D2C messaging
  • Reliable C2D messaging



Overview of Azure IoT Hub


Internet Protocol capable devices can be connected directly to IoT Hub. Private Area Network devices (devices connected through Bluetooth, NFC, RFID, Zeegbee, Home automation through PLC) are connected through Field gateway to IoT Hub / Cloud protocol gateway.  

Role of IoT Hub


  • Event processing and insight
  • Device business logic
  • Connectivity and monitoring
  • Application device provisioning and management

TableSense: Spreadsheet Table Detection with Convolutional Neural Networks

 - By Haoyu Dong, Shijie Liu, Shi Han, Zhouyu Fu, Dongmei Zhang Microsoft Research, Beijing 100080, China. Beihang University, Beijing 100191, China Paper Link Abstract Spreadsheet table detection is the task of detecting all tables on a given sheet and locating their respective ranges. Automatic table detection is a key enabling technique and an initial step in spreadsheet data intelligence. However, the detection task is challenged by the diversity of table structures and table layouts on the spreadsheet. Considering the analogy between a cell matrix as spreadsheet and a pixel matrix as image, and encouraged by the successful application of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) in computer vision, we have developed TableSense, a novel end-to-end framework for spreadsheet table detection. First, we devise an effective cell featurization scheme to better leverage the rich information in each cell; second, we develop an enhanced convolutional neural network model for...

ABOD and its PyOD python module

Angle based detection By  Hans-Peter Kriegel, Matthias Schubert, Arthur Zimek  Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München  Oettingenstr. 67, 80538 München, Germany Ref Link PyOD By  Yue Zhao   Zain Nasrullah   Department of Computer Science, University of Toronto, Toronto, ON M5S 2E4, Canada  Zheng Li jk  Northeastern University Toronto, Toronto, ON M5X 1E2, Canada I am combining two papers to summarize Anomaly detection. First one is Angle Based Outlier Detection (ABOD) and other one is python module that  uses ABOD along with over 20 other apis (PyOD) . This is third part in the series of Anomaly detection. First article exhibits survey that covered length and breadth of subject, Second article highlighted on data preparation and pre-processing.  Angle Based Outlier Detection. Angles are more stable than distances in high dimensional spaces for example the popularity of cosine-based sim...

Bike sharing Dynamic Re-positioning

-By Xinghua Zheng1, Ming Tang1, Hankz Hankui Zhuo1*, Kevin X. Wen Paper Link Abstract Bike Sharing Systems (BSSs) have been adopted in many major cities of the world due to traffic congestion and carbon emissions. Although there have been approaches to exploiting either bike trailers via crowdsourcing or carrier vehicles to reposition bikes in the “right” stations in the “right” time, they do not jointly consider the usage of both bike trailers and carrier vehicles. In this paper, we aim to take advantage of both bike trailers and carrier vehicles to reduce the loss of demand with regard to the crowdsourcing of bike trailers and the fuel cost of carrier vehicles. In the experiment, we exhibit that our approach outperforms baselines in several datasets from bike sharing companies. Bike-sharing systems (BSSs) typically have a set of base stations that are strategically placed throughout a city and each station has a fixed number of docks, e.g., Capital Bike-share, ...
