Also, it could serve as a pre-processing tool in evaluating the characteristics and application prospect of natural medicine. In addition to that, this is essential in discovering natural alternatives for synthetic medicine, since natural products are safer to use than the artificial ones.","PeriodicalId":109238,"journal":{"name":"2020 11th International Conference on Information, Intelligence, Systems and Applications (IISA","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132042823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Augmented Reality technology and the rapid spreading of mobile devices in everyday life are shaping new conditions in the culture field as well. Many studies focus on key questions of usability and technical issues without going into further analysis. In order to understand users/visitors needs and expectations as well as the role of technology in depth, the current study will try to answer an important question \"what does impress users more, technology or content?\". It is an important and a difficult question to be answered due to the diverse user’s profiles, the AR applications and sometimes the indistinct boundaries between the concepts of “like” and “impress”. The current research incorporates an AR app of cultural routes that could be found in every city/site and includes participants representing all ages and the associated categories (technology, theme, general) in order to approach the question in a balanced way. A qualitative research and results showed that more than the half select “both technology and content”, fewer users select only “content” and even less select only “technology”. Therefore, the AR technology continues to have a positive effect on users, content plays a significant key role but the way content and technology are combined emerges as the most important factor. Also, it is highlighted, that as users become more familiar with technology, they are becoming more demanding and more selective in using technology, making the creation of an AR app and generally the technology use more difficult to cover their increasing needs. In addition to, users’ view on the use of technology should not be ignored in order to avoid a negative attitude towards technology and more emphasis should be given on content and on applications that really have something innovative to add both to users and to cultural assets value.","PeriodicalId":109238,"journal":{"name":"2020 11th International Conference on Information, Intelligence, Systems and Applications (IISA","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130395499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In welfare states, undeclared work results in loss of public revenue and thus resources critical for welfare mechanisms’ funding, lack of worker protection and, last but not least, unfair competition for legitimate businesses. Yet, little to no studies have proposed the use of sophisticated machine learning methods in tackling this severe socioeconomic problem. In this study, we demonstrate the application of an advanced data analysis method, the association rule mining, which has significant advantages over rule-based systems, in classifying employers likely to engage in undeclared work. Indeed, the results of this pilot project proved divulging, even to the most experienced labour inspectors, offering insights in patterns of employers’ illegal behaviour, that were previously unidentified.","PeriodicalId":109238,"journal":{"name":"2020 11th International Conference on Information, Intelligence, Systems and Applications (IISA","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121701798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used data obtained from one school in order to predict student’s final examination scores based on previous grades and demographic data. Our aim was to find most important factors that contribute positively to final results and vice versa. Machine learning package Weka was used to build predictive models and with all tested attribute sets we got accuracy over 80% on classification. On continuous models we got mean absolute error close or less to 10, when range of test result was 0-100 points. Most of our attributes were subject grades on scale 1-5, and therefore, as we limited our testing sample with one school only, it gave interesting insights into how some subjects and teachers do contribute to final test results. And, surprisingly, it turned out, that for some test result, most significant predictor was negatively correlated to the result. It means that having bad grades in some subjects was a good predictor of success in final test. Besides being a useful tool for students who want to estimate possible test results beforehand, it is also a useful tool for measuring teachers’ contributions and relationships between different subjects.","PeriodicalId":109238,"journal":{"name":"2020 11th International Conference on Information, Intelligence, Systems and Applications (IISA","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131134698","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Amid Vehicular crashes, animal actions (i.e. deer) are unpredictable and erratic on roadways. This paper unveils a newer dimension for wild animals’ auto-detection during active nocturnal hours using thermal image processing over camera car mount in the vehicle. To implement effective hot spot and moving object detection, obtained radiometric images are transformed and processed by an intelligent system. This intelligent system extracts the features of the image and subsequently detects the existence of an object of interest (i.e. deer). The main technique to extract the features of wild animals is the Histogram of Oriented Gradient (HOG) transform. The features are detected by normalizing the radiometric image and then processed by finding the magnitude and gradient of a pixel. The extracted features are given as an input to the basic deep learning model, a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN), where binary cross-entropy is used to detect the existence of the object. This intelligent system has been tested on a set of real scenarios and gives approximately 91% accuracy in the correct detection of the wild animals on roadsides from the city of San Antonio, TX, in the USA.","PeriodicalId":109238,"journal":{"name":"2020 11th International Conference on Information, Intelligence, Systems and Applications (IISA","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116124244","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
