Subsequently, the fused result is the element-wise product of the two confidence vectors. We evaluated the proposed fusion network on two data sets, namely RTD and 6DMG, which contain alphabetic and numeric handwriting data. Five-fold cross validation was adopted. The average accuracy of our fusion network achieved 99.77% on the alphabetic data and 99.83% on the numeric data of the 6DMG data set, and 99.61% on the RTD data set. Finally, we compared the fusion network with three state-of-the-art techniques.","PeriodicalId":343821,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131979818","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}

It fulfills the possibility of marketing much easier and faster than traditional methods. With the development of social media, internet celebrities emerge as an essential role in social media marketing. The research purpose of this study is to explore and find the critical factors of the successful personal brand of internet celebrities by taking the Russian social media market as an example. This study employed a survey method to conduct quantitative research through an online questionnaire. According to the analysis of the 203 responses from Russian-speaking people, the research results show that gender, age, education, and occupation will influence fewer factors than other demographic features. In addition, attitude and brand will also be affected by fewer demographic features than other factors be. This implies that internet celebrities should perform segment marketing to people in different geographies by their concerns. Furthermore, according to the weighted importance, the brand will be affected by attitude, personality, and value in ascending order. It reveals that perceived value is the most critical factor among the others and earns widespread respect. That means internet celebrities have to pay more attention to audiences' perceived value and formulate appropriate strategies to increase their value to the public.","PeriodicalId":343821,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128849554","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}

It can help them not merely avoid traffic congestion but save time as well. When people need to drive to different cities by taking highways, travel time become more and more important now that they can check it to arrange better routes. Moreover, because COVID-19 are epidemic across Taiwan, people prefer to drive rather than taking public transportation. Therefore, accurate predictions of travel time is of great significance. In order to obtain precise predictions and correspond to situations in real life, we divide data into long and short sequences and create three types of dataset, including the whole year, only national holidays, and non-holidays. Additionally, on account of the interactive influence of time in different segments of the freeway, we exploit data to predict next-hour travel time instead of next 5 minutes. We introduce a deep learning model which hybrids tendency from XGBoost and recency embeddings from a fully-connected neural network, respectively. It can capture crucial features of both long and short sequences and observe implicit correlations between XGBoost and a fully-connected neural network. Extensive experiments on the dataset illustrate that our model achieves eminent performances and outperforms other state-of-the-art models.","PeriodicalId":343821,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115167280","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}

For example, a dramatic number of new hashtags appear in the social media every day, resulting in much unknown but valuable knowledge that requires reliable category/attribute labeling strategies. The crowdsourcing platform provides an effective tool to leverage opinions from the Internet crowd. In this paper, we propose incorporating varied task importance, called Return of Interest (RoI), into resource allocation in crowdsourcing. The awareness of RoI is important in the business sense, but it introduces new challenges. In this paper, we propose a two-phase framework, called Macro-Assignment and Micro-Optimization (MAMO), to simultaneously consider the issue of budget allocation and the chance of iteratively obtaining RoI. With the fixed budget, we prove that worker allocation to diverse pools for the best expectation of RoI in return is a NPhard challenge. We propose a Dynamic-Programming strategy to resolve the issue effectively. As shown in our experimental results, we demonstrate that the DP-based strategy can significantly outperform the baseline greedy approaches, also indicating its feasibility to be deployed as the standard component for budget allocation in crowdsourcing.","PeriodicalId":343821,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133553895","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}

Question classification, which assigns labels to questions according to the answer types, is one of the tasks in question answering. Previous methods usually used handcraft features like named entity recognition, but it needs the predefined dictionary or tools. The machine learning approaches are recently applied to this task and achieve high accuracy. In this paper, we proposed HAEE, a Hierarchical intra-Attention Enhancement Encoder which composed of bidirectional GRUs and intra-attentions. In addition, we adopt the character input to address the issue of the OOV (Out-Of-Vocabulary) problem and create multiple intra-attentions to simulate the certain relationships between characters (Chinese) or words (English) to enhance the influence of tokens on the sentence. We evaluate the HAEE model in an actual corporate setting and several datasets.

When a metaheuristic is used to solve a COP, one of the major aspects is to determine an appropriate parameter setting. Poor practice of determining parameter values may lead to inability to find optimal solutions or getting invalid conclusions from the experimental results. This research proposes a machine-learning-based parameter control mechanism for a metaheuristic, i.e. the Bee Colony Optimization (BCO) algorithm. The proposed mechanism consists of three main phases: Data Collection, Model Training, and Deployment. In order to examine the performance of the BCO algorithm with the parameter control mechanism, a set of 16 TSP instances is used as test bed. The experimental results show that it is significantly better than the BCO implementation using the parameter values that are determined via a manual tuning process. The proposed parameter control mechanism overcomes the shortcomings of manual parameter tuning and dynamically adjust the parameter values throughout the BCO optimization process.","PeriodicalId":343821,"journal":{"name":"2021 International Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126435289","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 many cases, mathematical, psychological, and fuzzy approaches have been utilized to explore it. Taking these principles into consideration, a new fuzzy threshold-based steganographic system is designed to choose pixel blocks for data embedding based on the degree of the pixel category. Then the secret data has been embedded through sum-of-entry-wise multiplication operation using predefined weighted matrix and selected pixel block. The secret data has been successfully recovered during the extraction phase using the required pixel range, fuzzy threshold, and weighted matrix, which are responsible for shared secret key to improve security and robustness. Finally, the proposed technique is tested using steganographic attacks and several types of analysis to determine its imperceptibility and robustness. Moreover, various experimental tests have been carried out to demonstrate the efficacy and effectiveness of the proposed method. From a security standpoint, it has been observed that unknown weighted matrix, threshold value and reference table have failed to retrieve the secret from watermarked image. The anticipated consequence highlighted certain outstanding magnificent aspects in the fields of image authentication, tamper detection, and digital forgery detection, all of which are essential to the technological life.
