They facilitate the process of finding information using a query-result mechanism. However, results returned by search engines contain many duplications. In this paper, we introduce a new content-type-based similarity computation method to address this problem. Our approach divides the webpage into different types of content, such as title, subtitles, body, etc. Then, we find for each type a suitable similarity measure. Next, we add the different calculated similarity scores to get the final similarity score between the two documents, using a weighted formula. Finally, we suggest a new graph-based algorithm to cluster search results according to their similarity. We empirically evaluated our results with the Agglomerative Clustering, and we achieved about 61% reduction in web pages, 0.2757 Silhouette coefficient, 0.1269 Davies Bouldin Score, and 85 Calinski Harabasz Score.","PeriodicalId":153862,"journal":{"name":"Signal Processing and Vision","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114519319","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}

Our method is based on post-processing technique to improve the quality of word embedding and reveal the hidden structure in these embeddings. We deploy Co-clustering method to reveal the hidden structure of word embedding and detect sub-matrices between word meaning and specific dimensions.

It has also been a potential method for wireless communication systems beyond the fifth generation (5G). The successive interference cancellation (SIC) procedure in NOMA systems is often carried out at the receiver, where several users are sequentially decoded. The successful detection of prior users will significantly influence the detection accuracy due to the effects of interferences. A deep learning-based NOMA receiver is analyzed to detect signals for multiple users in a single application without determining channels. This paper analyzes deep learning (DL)- based receiver for NOMA signal detection concerning several DL-aided sequence layersbased algorithms and optimizers by training orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) symbols. The simulation outcomes illustrate the various DL-based receiver characteristics using the traditional SIC approach. It also demonstrates that the effect of the different DL-based models is more predictable than the SIC approach.","PeriodicalId":153862,"journal":{"name":"Signal Processing and Vision","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122978974","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}

Key prerequisites for the operational implementations of the so-called eGates have been the electronic machine-readable travel document together with biometric technologies that have facilitated the automation of much of the tasks performed by border guards at manual control booths for selected groups of nationalities. Now, the next wave of major changes is emerging with the development of electronic identification (eID), with certain implementations particularly designed for crossborder use cases supplementing and possibly replacing the traditional physical identity document in a long-term future. The evolution of eID strongly aligns with the increased demands for data privacy to ensure that individuals can better control how much information is shared about themselves, with whom and for what purpose. One possible technology to provide the so-called data self-sovereignty is distributed ledger technology (DLT), including blockchains. DLT is being developed for instance by the Linux foundation, dispensing several distributed ledger projects and associated solutions for digital and self-sovereign identity. One of these projects is Hyperledger Indy. In this study, we present a distributed ledger implementation based on Hyperledger Indy applied as a border check use case. Our aim is to investigate the suitability of DLT in providing data self-sovereign facility in border checks, and to discuss the benefits and disadvantages the technology might entail for this security domain.","PeriodicalId":153862,"journal":{"name":"Signal Processing and Vision","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129384518","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 design SC circuits using both quadrature decoder and efficient decoder for implementing servo controller and compare them with traditional BC-based servo controller. The quadrature decoder requires more hardware resources than efficient decoder but can provide position information in PWM form. The FPGA implementation result shows that, compared to BC-based design, quadrature decoder-based design achieves 56.7% savings in area and 33.33% savings in power consumption, and efficient decoder-based design achieves 73.7% savings in area and 33.33% savings in power consumption.","PeriodicalId":153862,"journal":{"name":"Signal Processing and Vision","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123903616","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}

Almost every educational institution has been affected since the pandemic. The research indicates that such apps are highly effective for the so-called 'touch-screen' generation in a variety of contexts. Data on LA's performance show that they are associated with compelling increases in student achievement. Recognizing the significance, it is suggested that teachers and other caretakers become involved in this new trend of mobile learning. Despite this, experts generally highlight issues concerning their effectiveness. As a result, we observe the emergence of several design paradigms, having no or little theoretical bases. Even though businesses grow, and new tools and technology are developed, there isn't a good app design strategy based on accepted didactics. Realizing this, we suggest a Pedagogic-Object-Oriented Approach based on critical & qualitative review methodology to the design and development of LAs, building on the idea of IEEE learning objects and the success of the object-oriented paradigm. Current app developers may find the proposed method helpful as they strive to create really instructive and user-friendly apps for digitods students.","PeriodicalId":153862,"journal":{"name":"Signal Processing and Vision","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128752267","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}
