Qualitative direction has been separated from dimensionality of spatial objects and as such, the formalism may be used to represent qualitative direction in a dimension-independent way. The formalism uses fewer number of base relations than existing formalisms and granularity can be refined easily. Algorithms for finding composition and converse of base relations have been presented.","PeriodicalId":370150,"journal":{"name":"2012 12th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133912362","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 algorithm uses a contex-free grammar to represent individuals, encoding the solutions in a tree-shape conformant to the grammar, so they are more expressive and flexible. The algorithm here presented has the advantages of using evolutionary algorithms for mining association rules, and it also solves the problem of tuning the huge number of parameters required by these algorithms. The main feature of this algorithm is the small number of parameters required, providing the possibility of discovering association rules in an easy way for non-expert users. We compare our approach to existing evolutionary and exhaustive search algorithms, obtaining important results and overcoming the drawbacks of both exhaustive search and evolutionary algorithms. The experimental stage reveals that this approach discovers frequent and reliable rules without a parameter tuning.","PeriodicalId":370150,"journal":{"name":"2012 12th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA)","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133927623","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 feedback is derived from user interactions with the user interface of the recommender. This research shows that the automated PDO evolution outperforms a manual one. The evolution heuristic has been evaluated with an experiment and validated in real-world testing series.","PeriodicalId":370150,"journal":{"name":"2012 12th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA)","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116046533","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 challenging issues in person re-identification consist in pose, viewpoint and illumination changes and occlusions. In this paper, we propose a saliency based approach, which simulates the recognition process of the human brain, to tackle these issues. When people see a picture, they tend to focus on the salient areas and information in those areas is more determinant in the further matching and identification process. This so-called visual attention mechanism has long been studied and used in image segmentation, tracking, detection and recognition. To simulate this distinctive mechanism, we first calculate the saliency map which indicates the conspicuity of each pixel, and then we extract the saliency map weighted HSV histograms by giving each pixel a weight according to its saliency. We also design another feature, the salient colors, to address the occlusion problem. By opportunely combining these two features, our approach achieved state of the art performances.","PeriodicalId":370150,"journal":{"name":"2012 12th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122202737","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 researcher developed application that used fuzzy technology for ADSL Internet Service Provider in Chiang-Rai, Thailand. The application read Signal Noise Ratio (SNR) and Attenuation values from each customer' ADSL router and use these two values as input of fuzzy expert system. The software used principle of fuzzy sets and Mamdani inference method to get final answer of which support level should the ISP provide to each customer at a time. There were 3 levels of service order, level 1 - do nothing (normal situation), level 2 - remote fix (not severe situation) and level 3 - on-site fix (severe situation). By routine checking, the application could report about ADSL situation of each customer. If support level was 3, the technicians in charge would be alerted automatically by SMS and Email with detail of that customer, so they could visit customer site immediately. By using this system, all stakeholders, such as customers, managements, technicians and specialists were satisfied since it could warn beforehand so technicians could fix fast and the maintenance cost was low.","PeriodicalId":370150,"journal":{"name":"2012 12th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA)","volume":"81 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125229916","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}

Twitter metadata on users and their messages during the riots can be used to generate useful inferences which allows us to gain a better insight into intents, information-sharing behavior, and demographics of both the rioters and observers of the riots.

In Information retrieval Document Classification is prerequisite. In practice many classification techniques were and are in use. Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) is an approach which represents documents based on the frequency of terms in documents. Limitation of this approach is high dimensionality of data. Moreover it does not consider the relations among the terms, resulting in less precise and noisy end result. In our approach we are using weighted Concept Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (CF-IDF) with background knowledge of domain Ontology, for classification of RSS feed News Items. Metadata information of news items has been used to assign weight to the identified concepts. No trained classifiers are required as Ontology itself acts as a classifier. We have designed ontology based on news industry standards. This classification approach considers relations among the concepts and properties. It results in reduction of noise in final output. It considers only the key concepts of a domain for classification instead of all the terms, which curbs the problem of dimensionality. Evaluation of experimental results reveals that proposed approach gives better classification results.","PeriodicalId":370150,"journal":{"name":"2012 12th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127092439","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 specific attribute initiates the study of recommender systems, which analysis the patterns of user's interest in items or products and services to suggest personalized recommendations for all these verticals, and also to suit a user's taste and satisfaction. High quality recommendation demands perfect decision for classifying manifold options given to user against a particular query. Hence, research challenge remains that whether the decision taken is the optimal at the end of recommended options. In this paper coined Termite Colony Optimization (TCO) is proposed, which provides a decision making model, and it is used by termites to adjust their movement trajectories under the decision tree from web service portal. We strongly advocate that the emerging TCO could be better a choice to be used in recommender system and most importantly on a continuous data stream. The present approach is tested on a brand named as “Big Bazar” (Large Market) of India. Retail recommendation has continuous data and various constraints before achieving optimized suggestions. Empirical investigations demonstrate that Termite behavior and meta-heuristic approach is quite affin to offer optimized recommendations for specifi retail operation. The research also briefs about the potential benefi of such retail recommender model in reality.","PeriodicalId":370150,"journal":{"name":"2012 12th International Conference on Intelligent Systems Design and Applications (ISDA)","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115279775","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}
