It causes obstacles to achieve interoperability among services from different organizations. In this paper, we present an approach integrating SAWSDL and OWL to enable annotating Quality of Business Services (QoBS) for describing business rules and constraints. Besides, we provide a method to classify the QoBS annotations and to reason out the matching degree from the viewpoint of business rules satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":228516,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Machine Learning and Cybernetics","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117103672","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}

The recognition performance of the proposed method is compared with other widely used feature extraction methods that are intensively studied for many different scripts in literature.

Then, cloud aggregation algorithm is presented to integrate different attribute information and get every alternative value, and the most desirable alternative is selected according to their values. Cloud model can express the relationship between randomness and fuzziness, so the method is more effective to measure linguistic assessment information.

Firstly, the adaptive resampling step in particle filter is tuned based on two diversity measures which are effective sample size and population diversity factor. Moreover, the operation of particle mutation after resampling is integrated into PF so as to assure the diversity of particle sets. Then, a hybrid proposal distribution is adopted to consider current information of the latest observed measurement. At the same time, annealing parameter is utilized to control the proportional of priori function and likelihood function. With the simulation program using matlab 7.0 to track a single target motion from a fixed visual observation points, the validity of the proposed method is verified.","PeriodicalId":228516,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Machine Learning and Cybernetics","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121293336","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, the DT-MRI is very sensitive to noise. This paper proposes a sparse representation based denoising method for 3D diffusion weighted images (DWI) in DT-MRI. As consecutive 2D images in DWI volume have similar content and structure, we can process a fixed number of adjacent images from DWI volume simultaneously. The proposed method first learned a dictionary from the selected 2d diffusion weighted images according to the K-SVD learning algorithm. Then the clean images are obtained by gradually approximating the underlying images using the bases selected from the learned dictionary based on sparse representation. At last, the tensor images are estimated from the diffusion weighted images. The experiments on both synthetic and real DT-MRI images show that the proposed method performs better than classical techniques by preserving image contrast and structures.","PeriodicalId":228516,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Machine Learning and Cybernetics","volume":"4 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114205036","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}
