The result shows that our method can accurately draw the strongest related pair of stocks out of those that all look related on the surface.","PeriodicalId":339652,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Innovations in Intelligent Systems and Applications (INISTA) Proceedings","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121846079","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}

At the same time, there is an increasing interest in the use of clinical decision support systems (CDSSs) to increase the healthcare quality and efficiency. Majorly the existing CDSSs are not designed to adapt scientific research in a well-established and automatic manner. Clinicians and researchers access the online resources on frequent basis for unmet questions during the course of patient care. They usually follow a dis-integrated approach to search for their required information from resources of their interest. Additionally, there is lack of defined mechanism to integrate the relevant knowledge for future use. To overcome the disintegrated and non-automatic approach, we introduce the concept of KnowledgeButton; a comprehensive model for evidence adaption from online credible knowledge sources in a well-defined and established manner. It saves the time of clinicians spend unnecessary in searching research evidence using disintegrated and manual mechanism. In this paper, we provide architecture design, workflows, and scenarios complemented with primary results. It covers walk-through from search query generation to evaluation of search results.","PeriodicalId":339652,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Innovations in Intelligent Systems and Applications (INISTA) Proceedings","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129109291","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}

From the engineering design perspective, regulation of average waiting time and journey time while considering energy consumption is an optimization problem. Alternatively to the conventional algorithms for scheduling and dispatching cars to hall calls, intelligent systems based methods have drawn much attention in the last years. This study aims to improve the elevator group control system's performance by applying genetic algorithm based optimization algorithms considering two systems. Firstly, average passenger waiting time is optimized in the conventional elevator systems in which a hall call is submitted by indicating the travel direction. Secondly, a recent development in elevator industry is considered and it is assumed that instead of direction indicators there are destination button panels at floors that allow passengers to specify their destinations. In this case optimization of average waiting time, journey time and car trip time is investigated. Two proposed algorithms have been applied considering preload conditions in a building with 20 floors and 4 cars. The simulation results have been compared with a previous study and conventional duplex algorithm.","PeriodicalId":339652,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Innovations in Intelligent Systems and Applications (INISTA) Proceedings","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114377806","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 solve such a problem, a regularization method is needed to constrain the solution space and find a plausible and stable solution. In practice, it is very computation intensive when using cross-validation method to select the regularization parameter. In this paper, we present an adaptive regularization method to find the optimal regularization parameter value and represent the trade-off between model fitness of the data and the smoothness of the extracted signal. Spectral signal extraction experimental results demonstrate that the time complexity the proposed method is much lower than the one without adaptive regularization and is convenient for users also.

The presented approach assumes a state-space representation in order to obtain a more compact form of the model, without statement of a great number of parameters needed to represent a nonlinear behavior. To increase the flexibility of the network, simple Takagi-Sugeno inferences are used to estimate the current system states, by a set of a multiple local linear state estimators. Afterwards, the output of the network is defined, as function of the current and estimated system parameters. A simple learning algorithm based on two step Gradient descent procedure to adjust the network parameters, is applied. The potentials of the proposed modeling network are demonstrated by simulation experiments to model an oscillating pendulum and a nonlinear drying plant.","PeriodicalId":339652,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Innovations in Intelligent Systems and Applications (INISTA) Proceedings","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121129477","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}

When multiple autonomous agents share the same area, conflict situations may occur that need to be solved. We present a decentralized decision making algorithm to solve conflicts among autonomous agents. It is based on two main ideas: First, we introduce an innovative operationalization of cooperative behavior which allows to determine whether a behavior is cooperative by computing the total utility and comparing it to a reference utility. Second, we use motion primitives as a representation of available maneuvers obeying individual and environmental restrictions. The decentralized decision making algorithm is based on communication among the autonomous agents to find an optimal maneuver combination. Simulations show that our algorithm is applicable to different highway traffic scenarios of two automated vehicles. We use a mean-square acceleration as an individual cost function and show that our intelligent controller leads to cooperative solutions.","PeriodicalId":339652,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Symposium on Innovations in Intelligent Systems and Applications (INISTA) Proceedings","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134122199","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}
