At present most of the ontologies are manually constructed, which is a time consuming, tedious task where significant domain knowledge is required. The manual nature of ontology development has given rise to the well known knowledge engineering bottleneck which hinders the rapid growth of semantic web. This paper investigates the problem of extracting knowledge from large number of web documents in order to develop ontologies. This research introduces web usage patterns as a novel source of semantics in ontology learning. The proposed methodology combines web content mining with web usage mining in the knowledge extraction process. Therefore, both the web user's and web author's perspectives are captured with respect to the web content, which ultimately leads to extraction of more realistic set of conceptual relationships. The evaluation results prove the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. This solution is intended to be usable for transformation of large web corpuses to semantic web and also it could be used to develop cross domain ontologies.","PeriodicalId":325730,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions (ICTer)","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124613762","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}

These query processing systems provide a SQL query interface to extract data from sensors and it has proven to be a convenient programming interface in these environments. However, a relational database model that guarantees ACID properties is not a good match for a wireless sensor network since consistent connectivity or the uninterrupted operation of the sensor nodes cannot be expected. We noted that the NoSQL approach which does not rely on the ACID properties is a better match for a query processing systems for WASNs. We developed a NoSQL based query processing system on the Contiki operating system that is popular among the WSN community.","PeriodicalId":325730,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions (ICTer)","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116739212","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}

Human face identification has a significant amount of information depend on his age, gender, ethnicity and etc. In addition, facial expression and facial gestures often reveal the emotional state of an individual. Consequently human facial analysis has received considerable attention and has led to the development of novel approaches to perform face recognition, facial expression characterization, face modeling, etc. Facial aging is attributed by changes in facial features, shape and texture and other biological factors like weight loss/gain, facial hair, etc. Age seems to be the main cause of the facial change and it has become forefront. Human life cycle can be classified in to four main stages with the age. Those are babies, children, young adults and elderly. Significant amount of facial changes can be identified in each of these stages. This paper introduces a methodology for elderly facial shape changes using morphing. Paper discusses some key landmarks of elderly aging progression techniques from the existing research pool as well.","PeriodicalId":325730,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions (ICTer)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130623116","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}

Still some potential paths are left untraveled. This study presents an attempt to model emotions as a complex system based on the hypothesis that mind state can be considered as an emergent phenomena resulting from autonomous, interactive, elementary entities called emotions. Our approach is based on Buddhist philosophical concepts about thought formation by combination of emotions. Multi Agent Systems (MAS) technology has been used for the realization of above emotional model since interactions and emergence are intrinsic features of MAS. Capabilities of the model are exposed via a virtual agent application called EME who perceives, understands, uses and expresses emotions. Other potential applications incorporating the model are also introduced.","PeriodicalId":325730,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions (ICTer)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122645011","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}

Finite State Transducers (FST) and Context-free grammar (CFG) have been used to describe the computational grammar for Sinhala. The grammar has been tested through the English to Sinhala Machine Translation System. The translation system successfully translates English sentences with simple or complex subjects and objects with most commonly used patterns of the tenses including active and passive voice forms.","PeriodicalId":325730,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions (ICTer)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126983100","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}

Various pre-processing operations are performed on the digitised image to enhance the quality of an image. In the proposed method each pre-processed character image is represented by a set of local-invariant SIFT feature vectors. From a set of reference vectors, the key idea is to create a codebook for each character using K-means clustering algorithm. Then, the bag-of-keypoints are computed for the total number of character images. These features are used to train a linear support vector machine. A target character is predicted to exactly one of the twenty character classes. An average recognition rate of 81.62% on the character level has been achieved in experiments using six thousand training and two thousand testing images of twenty selected character classes. These results clearly demonstrate that the method produces good recognition accuracy on the handwritten Tamil character database and can be extended with more characters and more samples being recognised.","PeriodicalId":325730,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions (ICTer)","volume":"153 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134509694","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 context a remote school participating in the project in Badulla district was selected for this study. ICT enabled teaching and learning is very new concept for teaching children and also a need to adjust to new learning styles of children. We need to study the adaptability to ICT enabled education environment. For this a mixed approach quantitative and qualitative method is used to gather data by questionnaire and interviewing of teachers, children and parents of the school. Firstly, questioning teachers led to the second step of discussing and observing children and to the third step of speaking with parents. The results obtained using the method shows that activities using OLPC increase innovation and creativity of children in drawing, audio recording and video capturing compared to traditional existing primary school pedagogy based on books. Further it helped them to share knowledge, explore required learning beyond the curriculum. From the parental views, this OLPC led satisfactory learning and created curiosity. Creativity, sharing, collaboration, independent learning, formal mathematic learning are seems to be increased. Parents expressed proudness and privilege of having free OLPC while identified negative impacts like addiction to the OLPC use and neglecting physical game during off school time.","PeriodicalId":325730,"journal":{"name":"2011 International Conference on Advances in ICT for Emerging Regions (ICTer)","volume":"67 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130372849","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}
