In this paper, we propose a new validity index, which is based on a dispersion measure and an overlap measure. The dispersion measure estimates the overall data density of the clusters in the dataset; whereas the overlap measure estimates the degree of isolation among all clusters. Low degree of dispersion means that the overall clusters are densely distributed and hence are compact; and low degree of overlap means that clusters are overall well separated. Thus, a good clustering result is expected to have a lower dispersion measure and a lower overlap measure. We conducted several experiments to validate the effectiveness of our validity indexing method, including artificial datasets and public real datasets. Experimental results show that our validity indexing method has superior effectiveness and reliability for estimating the optimal number of clusters that widely differ in degrees of dispersion and overlap, when compared to nine other indices proposed in the literature.","PeriodicalId":211040,"journal":{"name":"2016 Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Intelligence (ICACI)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124280017","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}

At present, Dynamic Epistemic Logic (DEL) has been a primary technique for modelling knowledge acquisition and reasoning. This is mainly due to the dynamic epistemic logic has a stronger expression ability to deal with many problems about agent's cognitive reasoning in computer science. In this paper, we distinguish the major sorts of knowledge that the cognitive agent will hold in their interaction in the beginning, and then establish a Knowledge Acquisition System (KAS) which is added a new operator of `knowledge acquisition' to extend the basic epistemic language for bi-agent interaction. Other than that, we prove the soundness and completeness of this system, and analyze some properties about it. By this system, it is clear to explain how the agent acquires knowledge that will be transformed into common knowledge by observing the other agent's speech act. The acquired knowledge is further transformed into new private knowledge that provides the strategy options in agent's mind in interaction.","PeriodicalId":211040,"journal":{"name":"2016 Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Intelligence (ICACI)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122111105","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 this paper, we propose a recognition method based on kernel function which combines kernel Fisher Discriminant Analysis(KFDA) with kernel Principle Components Analysis(KPCA) and use typical ORL(Olivetti Research Laboratory) face database as our experimental database. There are four key steps: constructing feature subspace, image projection, feature extraction and image recognition. We found that the recognition accuracy has been greatly improved by using nonlinear identification method and combined feature extraction methods. We use MATLAB software as the platform, and use the GUI to demonstrate the process of face recognition in order to achieving human-computer interaction and making the process and result more intuitive.","PeriodicalId":211040,"journal":{"name":"2016 Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Intelligence (ICACI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130414149","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}

Even though plenty of solutions have been put forward, there still remains a lot to be promoted in filtering spam emails more efficiently. Nowadays a major problem in spam filtering as well as text classification in natural language processing is the huge size of vector space due to the numerous feature terms, which is usually the cause of extensive calculation and slow classification. Extracting semantic meanings from the content of texts and using these as feature terms to build up the vector space, instead of using words as feature terms in tradition ways, could reduce the dimension of vectors effectively and promote the classification at the same time. In this paper, a novel Chinese spam filtering approach with semantics-based text classification technology was proposed and the related feature terms were selected from the semantic meanings of the text content. Both the extraction of semantic meanings and the selection of feature terms are implemented through attaching annotations on the texts layer-by-layer. This filter performed well when experimented on a public Chinese spam corpus.","PeriodicalId":211040,"journal":{"name":"2016 Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Intelligence (ICACI)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126176615","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}

A brain storm optimization algorithm is a swarm intelligence algorithm which is inspired by the human brainstorming process. This paper will focus on the application of the brain storm optimization algorithm in full coverage problems of wireless sensor networks. The full coverage problems are divided into two types: problems either with fixed or flexible number of activated sensor nodes. Binary detection model and grid based strategy will be used in describing the mathematic model of the full coverage problem, which will be applied to test the effectiveness of the brain storm optimization algorithm for solving coverage problems of wireless sensor networks in different areas. Experimental results on irregular areas even with obstacles illustrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the brain storm optimization algorithm for solving full coverage problems of wireless sensor networks. In addition, if the number of activated sensor nodes is flexible, with an appropriate weight coefficient, the brain storm optimization algorithm can obtain a reasonable number of sensor nodes to realize full coverage.","PeriodicalId":211040,"journal":{"name":"2016 Eighth International Conference on Advanced Computational Intelligence (ICACI)","volume":"96 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125303548","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}

Then we propose a spatio-temporal cuboid pyramid (STCP) to subdivide the DMS volumes into a set of spatial cuboids on scaled temporal levels. And a cuboid fusion scheme is presented to concatenate the histograms of oriented gradients (HOG) features extracted from the spatial cuboid. The proposed approach is evaluated on three public benchmark datasets, i.e., MSRAction3D, MSRGesture3D and MSRActionPairs dataset.
