In this paper, we propose a diagnostic model to automatically detect and identify faults in manufacturing processes by using a wavelet-based method. The idea behind our method is to use an image processing system that performs the following phases: image capturing, image preprocessing, determination of region of interest, object segmentation, computations of object features and decision-making. Moreover, the frequency spectrum analysis method and the gear, automatic monitoring system are introduced. Afterwards, the wavelet transform is used to decompose the vibration acceleration signals of ball bearing fualts to different scales, and the resonance frequency band is extracted. Finally, the analysis and validation have been done by using the gear box fault data The results show that the method is very effective.","PeriodicalId":133724,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Business Intelligence and Financial Engineering","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114184007","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}

By transforming the distribution of standardized minimal return in an interval into the distribution of ordinary minimal return, the formula of expected shortfall is derived. By simulation and statistical analysis, an appropriate interval length is found out to make this algorithm robust. The simulation results show that the robustness of value at risk and expected shortfall based on this method is very good when the interval length isn’t more than 30. This algorithm measures effectively the expected shortfall of stock market.","PeriodicalId":133724,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Business Intelligence and Financial Engineering","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132018479","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}

Its significance to financial institutions has brought application of many quantitative methods. Most published research is focused on increasing classification performance by adjusting algorithms, generally without a corresponding analysis of intrinsic dataset difficulties. Prior research shows that these intrinsic difficulties cause all methods to yield less than perfect classification of testing samples in dataset. Hence, our discussion concentrates on the complexity of datasets. In this study, a new approach based on convex hull is suggested as a means to measure the classification complexity of credit scoring datasets. An empirical example is provided to demonstrate the efficiency of the new approach.","PeriodicalId":133724,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Business Intelligence and Financial Engineering","volume":"317 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128371919","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}

Building on previous quantity research, and using a survey methodology, face-to-face interviews with consumers were conducted in a Chinese city. A principal-component analysis revealed that the various trust items could best be described by five dimensions, namely: actual behavior, customer relationship, firm scale, providing information, and expertise. Having conducted stepwise regression, four dimensions, actual behavior, customer relationship, firm scale, and providing information were kept in the regression equation, while expertise was omitted. By carefully manipulating the four dimensions in formulating marketing strategies, managers can build consumer trust in food suppliers and gain a competitive edge in the business context.","PeriodicalId":133724,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Business Intelligence and Financial Engineering","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126745105","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 order to overcome this problem, an approach based on Bayesian networks is proposed. Firstly, based on the common user utility function of a specific commodity which has already been constructed by domain experts, a prior Bayesian network can be established. Secondly, the prior Bayesian network is modified based on the current user’s implicit feedback, so that his utility function can be represented by means of Bayesian networks. Finally, according to his utility function, objects the current user may like are recommended to him. Compared with other approaches, this approach may acquire utility functions more approximately and automatically. Furthermore, it could extend the range of applications for which utility-based recommendation would be more useful.","PeriodicalId":133724,"journal":{"name":"2009 International Conference on Business Intelligence and Financial Engineering","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122087195","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}
