We first enhance a transition-based approach with additional actions that aim to handle particularities in the structure of the AMR. We analyze actions to address multi-aligned nodes and non-projective word orders, and explore several algorithms for action sequence generation, which incorporate the newly proposed actions. Secondly, we explore strategies for tackling AMR re-entrant concepts, which represent co-references in the associated textual data. We choose to handle co-reference detection and resolution via specific pre-processing and post-processing operations.","PeriodicalId":259007,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 14th International Conference on Intelligent Computer Communication and Processing (ICCP)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127815053","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}

Dedicated surveys have been operated for data acquisition and processing, resulting in the present discovery of over 18.000 objects that are closer than 30 million miles of Earth. Nevertheless, recent events have shown that there still are many undiscovered asteroids that can be on collision course to Earth. This article presents an original NEO detection algorithm developed in the NEARBY research object, that has been integrated into an automated MOPS processing pipeline aimed at identifying moving space objects based on the blink method. Proposed solution can be considered an approach of Big Data processing and analysis, implementing visual analytics techniques for rapid human data validation.","PeriodicalId":259007,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 14th International Conference on Intelligent Computer Communication and Processing (ICCP)","volume":"202 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114427883","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 meta-heuristic finds a good solution in a reasonable time. However, it could be inefficient when dealing with very large-scale problems, in particular CSPs. Therefore, the High Performance Computing (HPC) is recommended, as an additional way, to accelerate the research. This paper introduces two parallel genetic algorithm-based approaches using GPU for solving Maximal Constraint Satisfaction Problems (Max-CSPs). The first approach is based on one parallelism level, while the second approach is based on two parallelism levels.

Diabetic macular edema (DME) is also a form of vision loss for diabetic people. It is therefore crucial to detect AMD and DME in the early stages for the timely treatment of the eye and the prevention of any vision impairment. Automatic detection of DME and AMD on optical coherence tomography (OCT) images are presented in this paper. The method used is based on training a deep learning algorithm to classify them into healthy, dry AMD, wet AMD and DME categories. This method outperforms a transfer learning based method proposed recently in the literature for classification of OCT images into AMD and DME categories.","PeriodicalId":259007,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 14th International Conference on Intelligent Computer Communication and Processing (ICCP)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121235397","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 paper presents a convolutional neural network architecture capable of segmenting taillight pixels by detecting vehicles and uses already computed features to segment taillights. The network is composed of a Faster RCNN that detects vehicles and classify them based their orientation relative to the camera and a subnetwork that is responsible for segmenting taillight pixels from vehicles that have their rear facing the camera. Multiple Faster RCNN configurations were trained and evaluated. This work also presents a way of adapting the ERFNet semantic segmentation architecture for the purpose of taillight extraction, object detection and classification.

Different from experts, this agreement has not reached all the public arena yet. That is, people have different views and therefore argue about climate change issues. We are interested in analysing people's arguments on global warming. The large number of conveyed arguments need somehow to be aggregated in order to have a top level view on what people believe. To build such collective opinion, we use subjective logic. Based on subjective reasoning we are able to assess the expectance that a debate topic be accepted by a given community or arguers. We collected arguments on climate change from three debates sites: Debatepedia, For and Against and Debate.org. We can analyse the differences between such communities. We use the consensus operator in subjective logic to aggregate similar opinions from distinct debate communities. Moreover, various debate topics can refer to the same issue but with different phases. We apply the affinity propagation algorithm to cluster the debates. Our approach for analysing people arguments can be applied in different domains, other than the one exemplified here, that is climate change.","PeriodicalId":259007,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 14th International Conference on Intelligent Computer Communication and Processing (ICCP)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127521236","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}

Security frameworks that are created using an ontological approach are the next-gen systems of defense that have some advantages over the conventional techniques because they can capture the context of information and are capable to filter these contents depending on some certain factors. This paper proposes a method of creating an ontology that can be used for improving detection capabilities of attacks at all application levels. The ontology serves as a data model and knowledge base of the cyberoperations domain that conceptualizes and stores various types of data needed in the process of detecting an aware situation, such as information about attacks (types), OSI stack levels to which are targeted (software, network, hardware), countermeasure methods, resources necessary, knowledge required etc. The quality of the proposed model was assessed using a methodology known as OntoClean, that is a comprehensive suite of metrics for ontology evaluation that can comprise up to 15 criteria, as will be discussed during this paper. The ontology was tested in attack detection using a prototype web application firewall. In the evaluation process we used the famous dataset Kyoto2006+ proposed by the University of Kyoto in this scope. The results yielded for attacks detection by our proposed system were compared to other existing security solutions, like ModSecurit and Snort. In the conclusion section are stated the future directions of this research towards constructing reliable systems for cyber-security.","PeriodicalId":259007,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE 14th International Conference on Intelligent Computer Communication and Processing (ICCP)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126742454","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}
