A new method is introduced, explained and discussed to integrate a formerly published course modeling and a course model evaluation method with the product modeling. The purpose of this integration is the communication of demand for examples supporting given course content and on the other hand, demand for course content needed by the definition of given product objects in the product model. Integration is realized through a new element called as issue distributor. Product modeling which is applied at recent advanced product lifecycle management is considered.","PeriodicalId":304729,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 8th International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"126 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115620520","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 order to properly approach the computer assisted treatment and diagnosis this paper presents a model of the process using BPMN and also a UML model for implementation. The data is supplied directly from the keyboard or from the Zebris equipment. The parameters investigated are: demographic data, disability status (4 degrees), daily activity expressed in calories (24 possibilities), Zebris mobility degree (minimum/ maximum-6 values), and Zebris position rate (expressed as an angle). The inference engine of the presented method is created using fuzzy inference system. The data collected from the patients and the Zebris equipment is transformed in linguistic variables and the appropriate fuzzy inference rules are constructed. The consequences of the rules encode the actions that should be taken. Relating the values of the investigated parameters screening values for each measurement can be established. Future work will result in prediction of recovery rate and also developing educational tools related to recovery domain.","PeriodicalId":304729,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 8th International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128264814","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}

Islam","doi":"10.1109/SACI.2013.6608963","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/SACI.2013.6608963","url":null,"abstract":"Since the introduction Gesture Control technology in the electronic gaming technology a series of attempts have been made to deploy it also on other domains such as robotics, teaching, medical, automotive and many others. Human gesture used for Man-Machine Interaction became attractive as it offers a simpler way of controlling sophisticated devices, in a sci-fi-like scenario, in return of an increasingly computational power required by the artificial intelligence algorithms needed to detect, track and recognize them. There have been attempts to bring a solution to it by using 2D or 3D based image processing methods. There is a clear balance incline towards 3D methods in the consumer product as besides the almost insurmountable difficulties for producing robust and stable results, the price constraint added supplementary hurdles. As perfect illumination conditions are core factors in obtaining the above results, the infrared light was unanimously adopted by the domain technologies. In this paper, a novel real-time depth-mapping principle and a corresponding hardware solution for an IR depth-mapping camera is introduced. The new IR camera architecture comprises an illuminator module which is pulsed and modulated via a monotonic function using a phase-locked loop control for the laser intensity, while the reflected infrared light is captured during the increasing and decreasing monotonic function. A reconfigurable hardware architecture (RHA) unit calculates the depth and controls the IR waves in synchronism with the infrared sensor. The resolution of the depth map is variable depending on the resolution and gating possibilities of the image sensor. A sensor of 1 megapixel is used, providing a resolution of 1024×1024. Images of real objects are reconstructed in 3D based on the data obtained by the laser controlled by the RHA. A corresponding image processing algorithm builds the 3D map of the object in real-time. In this paper the camera is used to control consumer electronic products such as TV sets, laptops and others.","PeriodicalId":304729,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 8th International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130560154","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}

Upon introducing this system in an actual office, we were able to realize both an improvement in workers' comfort and a drastic reduction in electricity consumption. Furthermore, in office lighting design of recent years, brightness design has become important in addition to illuminance design. In this paper, we propose a new lighting control system that realizes a brightness distribution within a worker's field of vision that they find comfortable. A mechanism that considers brightness distribution in a worker's field of vision has been added to the previous model of an intelligent lighting system that only controlled desk-surface illuminance. Experimental results indicated that target brightness distribution within a worker's field of vision could be realized. It was also shown that, by having a system learn the brightness distribution a worker finds most comfortable, the targeted brightness distribution can be provided even when display brightness is changed during work.","PeriodicalId":304729,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 8th International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130530087","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 prediction makes use of Hammerstein dynamic models integrated into a multilevel Neuro-Fuzzy structure. The process input space decomposition is performed axis orthogonal for a large region using Local Linear Model Tree (LOLIMOT) algorithm and the local dynamic models parameters are adapted using recursive last squares method.

We applied an extended version of PageRank and HITS, the Co-HITS algorithm to wine tasting graph in order to rank tasters according to their ability and professional skill. The results of our technique were compared to other simple statistical methods. In general we observed that our ranking method performed better: it can filter out incompetent tasters, who, for example, gave the average score of some other tasters for the wines she or he tasted. Furthermore, our method gives a clearer picture about the competence of wine tasters.","PeriodicalId":304729,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 8th International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"172 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114623632","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}
