Thus, they should seek alternatives; one of them is global software development. Therefore, software project management should adapt to this reality and resolve challenges not previously found in the “traditional” management. In this paper, we present an initial list of challenges in project management in the context of global software development and solutions proposed by researchers and project managers to try to solve these challenges. We used Literature Systematic Mapping for finding challenges and solutions for software project management. We found 29 papers and used 20 initial papers, totalizing 49 papers. The findings showed 18 challenges which were listed with its solutions.","PeriodicalId":216193,"journal":{"name":"2019 XLV Latin American Computing Conference (CLEI)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120957744","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}

Infrared images can distinguish objects from their background based on the difference in radiation. In the other hand, visible images can provide textured details consistent with the human visual system. The fusion of these two types of images can combine the advantages of thermal radiation information in infrared images and detailed texture information in visible images. In this work, we propose an algorithm of fusion of infrared and visible images using the multiscale top-hat transformation. The extraction of bright and dark regions from the images is done using two structuring elements. This algorithm provides significantly better results in contrast, brightness and texture than other state-of-theart algorithms.","PeriodicalId":216193,"journal":{"name":"2019 XLV Latin American Computing Conference (CLEI)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114927587","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}

This has motivated a lot of research focused on automating the process. Current state-of-the-art methods combine active learning methods and manual selection of primary studies from a smaller set so they can maximize the finding of relevant papers while at the same time minimizing the number of manually reviewed papers. In this work, we propose a novel strategy to further improve these methods whose early success heavily depends on an effective selection of initial papers to be read by researchers using a PCAbased method which combines different document representation and similarity metric approaches to cluster and rank the content within the corpus related to an enriched representation of research questions within the SLR protocol. Validation was carried out over four publicly available data sets corresponding to SLR studies from the Software Engineering domain. The proposed model proved to be more efficient than a BM25 baseline model as a mechanism to select the initial set of relevant primary studies within the top 100 rank, which makes it a promising method to bootstrap an active learning cycle.","PeriodicalId":216193,"journal":{"name":"2019 XLV Latin American Computing Conference (CLEI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130645351","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}

However, they are still insufficient in environments with uncertain information and changing conditions in management styles. Deficiencies in systems for controlling the projects execution, affects the quality of their classification in aiding decision-making. An alternative solution is the introduction of soft computing techniques, which provide robustness, efficiency and adaptability at tools. This research proposes a method for project execution control based on soft computing and machine learning, which contributes to improve the project management. The proposed method allows the machine learning and adjusting of fuzzy inference systems to the project evaluation. The results are obtained from the execution of seven algorithms, which are based on space partitioning, neural networks, gradient descent and genetic algorithms.

In this paper, several cleaning tasks are defined and executed over a dataset of comments extracted from the social network Facebook. The goal is to verify if the corrections, made by such tasks, produce a significant improvement in the accuracy reached by the classifying algorithms.

The organizations’ concerns about risks associated to potential privacy leaks and their impacts have increased dramatically. Thus, apply data mining in process optimization without compromising sensitive data and provide a strong privacy standard are challenges imposed to data stewards, who use techniques and privacy models during data release process. This study aims to propose a classification decision tree application, developed under the Differential Privacy model definition, whose architecture was designed according to the interactive data release model that deploys a barrier to forbid users to have access data in their raw format. In addition, a self-tuning feature that controls the forest growth was put in place, resulting in a better classification performance if compared to the adoption of a fixed amount of trees in the forest. However, there was an increase in processing time. It also was observed in most of the datasets used in the experiment that beyond a threshold the classification performance is reduced by increasing the number of trees that compose the forest.","PeriodicalId":216193,"journal":{"name":"2019 XLV Latin American Computing Conference (CLEI)","volume":"327 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123509118","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}
