To reduce the effect of noise in the dataset for subspace clustering, many methods have been proposed such as sparse representationbased, low rank representation-based, and thresholding ridge regression methods. These methods either reduce the noise in the input space (sparse representation and low rank representation) or in the projection space (thresholding ridge regression). However, reduction of noise in the projection space eliminates the constraints of spars errors and a prior knowledge of structure of errors. Further, thresholding ridge regression method uses k-means algorithm for clustering which is sensitive to initial centroids and may stuck into local optimum. Therefore, this paper introduces a modified thresholding ridge regression-based subspace clustering method which uses differential evolution and k-means algorithm. The proposed method has been compared with six different methods including thresholding ridge regression on facial image dataset. The experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms the existing algorithms in terms of accuracy and normalized mutual information.","PeriodicalId":147099,"journal":{"name":"2017 Tenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127069818","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}

Currently, detection of Diabetic Retinopathy involves manual methods in which physical examination is done by a trained eye physician.

They are used in meeting the demand of executing large-scale high-performance computational jobs. Scheduling the tasks on such computational resources is one of the prime concerns in the heterogeneous distributed systems. Scheduling jobs on such systems are NP-complete in nature. Scheduling requires either heuristic or metaheuristic approach for sub-optimal but acceptable solutions. An application can be divided into a number of tasks which can be represented as Direct Acyclic Graph (DAG). To accomplish high performance, it is important to efficiently schedule these dependent tasks on resources with the satisfaction of the constraints defined for schedule generation. Inspired by Quantum computing, this work proposes a Quantum Genetic Algorithm with Rotation Angle Refinement (QGARAR) for optimum schedule generation. In this paper, the proposed QGARAR is compared with its peers under various test conditions to account for minimization of the makespan value of dependent jobs submitted for execution on heterogeneous distributed systems.","PeriodicalId":147099,"journal":{"name":"2017 Tenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114586988","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}

One such most attracted application is face recognition of image processing. There are several innovative technologies have been developed to take attendance. Some prominent ones are biometric, thumb impressions, access card, and fingerprints. The method proposed in this paper is to record the attendance through image using face detection and face recognition. The proposed approach has been implemented in four steps such as face detection, labelling the detected faces, training a classifier based on labelled dataset, and face recognition. The database has been constructed with the positive images and negative images. The complete database has been divided into training and testing set and further, processed by a classifier to recognize the faces in a classroom. The final step is to take the attendance using face recognition technique in which the input image of a classroom is given, and faces of the given image will be detected along with their IDs. The frames of a video taken for a minute is taken into consideration to avoid the missed ones due to rotational issues.","PeriodicalId":147099,"journal":{"name":"2017 Tenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3)","volume":"43 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114637899","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}

Entrepreneurship education has been viewed as a solution to the same. The aim of this study is to analyse different aspects of entrepreneurship education. The main aspects that have been studied here are-Entrepreneurship education programs, Teaching and assessment and Entrepreneurship education in non-business disciplines. It is found that the entrepreneurship education programs are gaining recognition in higher education institutes. But the programs need to be different from the conventional educational programs as entrepreneurship involves more of right brain thinking. Teaching of entrepreneurship has to be action oriented with focus on development of behavioural and attitudinal competencies. The learning can be enhanced through group discussions, workshops, presentations, solving cases studies, interacting with real entrepreneurs, developing business plan and implementation at later stages. The assessment techniques need to be different from the conventional system of examination as the learning outcomes are in the form of behavioural competencies and motivation. The study highlights the significance of entrepreneurship education for non-business disciplines. Non-business disciplines are able to give birth to more number of start-ups as they have many product ideas, which they can convert into business ideas if they are equipped with knowledge of entrepreneurship. This study is useful for policymakers and academicians as it provides an insight into different aspects of entrepreneurship education programs for universities and other higher education institutes.","PeriodicalId":147099,"journal":{"name":"2017 Tenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129048506","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}

These are designed either to bind a cryptographic key or to generate cryptographic key using biometric features. The deployment of bio-cryptosystem technique, namely fuzzy extractor in multimodal biometric system leads to increase in user privacy and system security. This paper provides with a framework where feature level fusion of iris and dual fingerprint forms a multimodal template and key is generated using fuzzy extractors, in order to provide reliability and good recognition performance. The hash function is used to protect the key generated from biometric traits. Since fuzzy extractor operates only on ordered dataset. However the minutiae points of fingerprint are unordered, so an algorithm is designed for conversion of unordered minutiae points to ordered minutiae dataset to make it consistent for key generation methods.","PeriodicalId":147099,"journal":{"name":"2017 Tenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126568960","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}
