However, it is unstable by virtue of sensitivity to the selection of neighbourhood parameter and inaccuracy of the edge weights. Inspired by the good performance of the local learning method, this paper proposes a semi-supervised dimensionality reduction based on local estimation error (LEESSDR) algorithm by utilising local learning projections (LLP) to semi-supervised dimensionality reduction. The algorithm sets the edge weights through minimising the local estimation error and can effectively preserve the global geometric structure as well as the local one of the data. Since LLP does not require its input space to be locally linear, even if it is nonlinear, LLP maps it to the feature space by using kernel functions and then obtains its local estimation error in the feature space. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified on two popular face databases with promising classification accuracy and favourable robustness.","PeriodicalId":384857,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132040372","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}

Detailed monitoring is often too costly to use in production. An alternative is adaptive monitoring, whereby monitoring is kept to a minimal level while the system behaves as expected, and the monitoring level is increased if a problem is suspected. To enable such an approach, we must model the system, both at a minimal level to ensure correct operation, and at a detailed level, to diagnose faulty components. To avoid the complexity of developing an explicit model based on the system structure, we employ simple statistical techniques to identify relationships in the monitored data. These relationships are used to characterize normal operation and identify problematic areas. \u0000 \u0000We develop and evaluate a prototype for the adaptive monitoring of J2EE applications. We experiment with 29 different fault scenarios of three general types, and show that we are able to detect the presence of faults in 80% of cases, where all but one instance of non-detection is attributable to a single fault type. We are able to shortlist the faulty component in 65% of cases where anomalies are observed.","PeriodicalId":384857,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133399700","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 queuing system uses Weighted-Fair Queuing queues (WFQ) which are extended by Priority Queues (PQ). While WFQ represents a common implementation in current routers supporting differentiated services, PQs allow to compensate extended protocol processing times due to mispredictions in a speculative system. When applying this concept, the generation of delay-jitter which would limit applicability of speculative packet processing for Real-Time (RT) traffic can be avoided. Utilising the presented queuing system in conjunction with speculative protocol processing in an NP, a latency reduction of up to 14.9% can be achieved compared to systems which support traditional packet processing methodologies.","PeriodicalId":384857,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115842388","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}

We incorporate adaptive CPU/node-resource allocation to consider varying system load and to reduce fragmentation. As main innovations, our SCOJO approach provides a clear model how to adapt, and considers realistic job mixes with moldable, malleable and rigid jobs. Our adaptive SCOJO significantly decreases response times and average slowdowns, while using a lower multiprogramming level than standard gang scheduling uses best and, therefore, decreasing the memory pressure. These benefits apply though the realistic job mixes limit the flexibility in resource allocation.","PeriodicalId":384857,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking","volume":"122 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122478323","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}

A filtering technique is used to suppress noise, and this approach allows us to calculate skew and kurtosis even when the point process is highly homogeneous. The algorithm can be implemented efficiently in a shared memory parallel environment provided a data-local random sampling technique is used.","PeriodicalId":384857,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114971805","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 salient feature of the indexing systems design is the efficient dissemination of term-document indices using a combination of duplicate elimination, leaf set forwarding and conventional techniques such as aggressive index pruning, index compression, and batching. Together these indexing strategies help to reduce the number of RPC operations required to locate the nodes responsible for a section of the index, as well as the bandwidth utilization and the latency of the indexing service. Using empirical observation we evaluate the performance benefits of these cumulative optimizations and show that these design trade-offs can significantly improve indexing performance when using a distributed hash table.","PeriodicalId":384857,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of High Performance Computing and Networking","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129977009","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}

We build a model architecture of multi-view convolutional neural network (MV-CNN) containing multiple networks to deal with three DMMs (DMMf, DMMs, DMMt). The output of full-connected layer under each view is integrated as feature representation, which is then learned in the last softmax regression layer to predict human actions.
