Discretization of such geometries and solution of the contact problem on the internal interfaces can be computationally challenging. We employ an unfitted Finite Element (FE) framework for the discretization of the domains and develop a tailored, globally convergent, and efficient multigrid method for solving contact problems on the internal interfaces. In the unfitted FE methods, structured background meshes are used and only the underlying finite element spaces are modified to incorporate the discontinuities. The non-penetration conditions on the embedded interfaces of the domains are discretized using the method of Lagrange multipliers. We reformulate the arising variational inequality problem as a quadratic minimization problem with linear inequality constraints. Our multigrid method can solve such problems by employing a tailored multilevel hierarchy of the FE spaces and a novel approach for tackling the discretized non-penetration conditions. We employ pseudo-L2 projection- based transfer operators to construct a hierarchy of nested FE spaces from the hierarchy of non-nested meshes. The essential component of our multigrid method is a technique that decouples the linear constraints using an orthogonal transformation. The decoupled constraints are handled by a modified variant of the projected Gauss–Seidel method, which we employ as a smoother in the multigrid method. These components of the multigrid method allow us to enforce linear constraints locally and ensure the global convergence. We will demonstrate the robustness, efficiency, and level independent convergence property of the proposed method for Signorini’s problem and two-body contact problems","PeriodicalId":13824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89346474","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}

Free access C-band dual-PolSAR Sentinel 1 data have been exploited. The elements as of the covariance matrix as well as the entropy/alpha decomposition parameters have been studied. Results show that the VH intensity, the coherence between VV and VH polarimetric channels, the entropy and alpha angle provide the most pronounced signatures that discern mangrove forests.

In this study, we introduce an inventive indoor localization methodology that combines Truncated Singular Value Decomposition (Truncated SVD) for dimensionality reduction with the K-Nearest Neighbors Regressor (KNN Regression) for precise position prediction. The central objective of this proposed technique is to mitigate the complexity of high-dimensional input data while preserving critical information essential for achieving accurate localization outcomes. To validate the effectiveness of our approach, we conducted an extensive empirical evaluation employing a publicly accessible dataset. This dataset covers a wide spectrum of indoor environments, facilitating a comprehensive assessment. The performance evaluation metrics adopted encompass the Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) and the Euclidean distance error (EDE)—widely embraced in the field of localization. Importantly, the simulated results demonstrated promising performance, yielding an RMSE of 1.96 meters and an average EDE of 2.23 meters. These results surpass the achievements of prevailing state-of-the-art techniques, which typically attain localization accuracies ranging from 2.5 meters to 2.7 meters using the same dataset. The enhanced accuracy in localization can be attributed to the synergy between Truncated SVD's dimensionality reduction and the proficiency of KNN Regression in capturing intricate spatial relationships among data points. Our proposed approach highlights its potential to deliver heightened precision in indoor localization outcomes, with immediate relevance to real-time scenarios. Future research endeavors involving comprehensive comparative analyses with advanced techniques hold promise in propelling the field of accurate indoor localization solutions forward.","PeriodicalId":13824,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134882317","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}

Analyzing video requires a lot of effort and time, as well as quick equipment. The concept of a video summary was developed in order to overcome these limitations. To work past these limitations, the concept of video summarization has emerged. In this study, a deep learning-based method for customized video summarization is presented.

Human coaches will provide this support to fulfill this role as a mediator between the technological system and the end-user. Reactance towards the system from the mediator's role could lead to the system's failure with the end user, thus failing the development. The effect of technology reactance in the integration process of a technological system can be the decisive factor in evaluating the success and failure of a technological system. We used part-standardized, problem-centered interviews to understand the human coaches’ challenges.

The interviews focused on experienced or imagined hurdles in the communication process with the user and the mediator role as well as the later relationship dynamic between the mediator, end-user, and technological system. The described technological challenges during the testing phase led the human coaches to responsibility, diffusion and uncertainty within their role. Furthermore, they led to a feeling of not fulfilling role expectations, which in the long term could indicate missing self-efficacy for the human coaches.

In this view, our paper intends to utilize a Dispersed and Elastic Computing Model (DECM) to enable proper and reliable communication for people who are using IoT-based wearable healthcare devices. Recurrent Reinforcement Learning (RRL) is used in the suggested model and the system that is connected to analyze resource allocation in response to requirements and other allocative factors. To provide effective data transmission over wearable medical devices, the built system gives managing mobility additional consideration to resource allocation and distribution. The results show that the pervasive computing system provides services to the user with reduced latency and an increased rate of communication for healthcare wearable devices based on the determined demands of the resources.

Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) is an effective oversampling method that addresses this by generating new instances for the under-represented minority class. However, SMOTE's efficiency relies on the sampling rate for minority class instances, making optimal sampling rates crucial for solving class imbalance. In this paper, we introduce HHO-SMOTe, a novel hybrid approach that combines the Harris Hawk optimization (HHO) search algorithm with SMOTE to enhance classification accuracy by determining optimal sample rates for each dataset. We conducted extensive experiments across diverse datasets to comprehensively evaluate our binary classification model.
