This compilation opens with a review of the applications of several anomaly-based methods under the computational intelligence umbrella for the detection of DDoS attacks. Following this, a study is carried out to reveal the effects of a device developed to enable visually-impaired people to read any document in the Braille alphabet. The performance of the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm on CEC2010 benchmark problems is also studied, with the goal of increasing the performance of the algorithm changes presented in large-scale optimization problems. Later, the opportunities and limitations of present waste management techniques are highlighted, and some future research proposals are discussed. The authors provide an overview of the field of motion capture focusing on methods, systems, and applications. More information about the motion processing and motion reconstruction technologies applied in the most prevalent optical and inertial systems is presented. In closing, a partially-manual method for using images to measure body poses is presented and discussed.
