They tend to do everything using their mobile device as it can be used at anytime and anywhere. This generates the idea of developing a mobile financial planner application due to most individuals have poor money management skill. They tend to spend much money on short term things like cars, clothing and accessories. These cause burdens to the individuals as they do not have enough money to bear with all the expenses. So, this financial planning helps the individuals to balance the income and the expenses by prioritizing their needs and desires. This paper applies the forward chaining that can determine the suggestion and tips according to their money environment. Hence, this paper focuses on providing a decision mechanism solution using forward chaining technique that able to further improve the individuals' money management and decision making skill.","PeriodicalId":385258,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Symposium on Computer Applications and Industrial Electronics (ISCAIE)","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127571693","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}

However, the standard metric-based methods performance is not suitable and stable owing to the amid window distance calculation stability. Therefore, a new method is proposed to improve the stability and enhance the performance of the system according to speakers' characteristics using between window correlations. Moreover, reference speaker models set that shows the space of the entire speaker model are trained in this approach. A metric is defined as the between window correlation of scores likelihood vectors versus the reference models. The Peak and Valley information and gender information are also used. In this paper, we look at telephone conversations where it is known a priori that there are two speakers, but the identity of the speakers is not known. Experiments over Farsdat Database show better performance In comparison with the GLR and the BIC approaches. This new approach has more effect rather than the GLR and the BIC approaches in the broader value of defined thresholds.","PeriodicalId":385258,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Symposium on Computer Applications and Industrial Electronics (ISCAIE)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122570718","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 particular, the affective states under investigation are happy, nervous, and sad which play important roles in Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) applications. A structured experimental setup was designed to invoke the desired affective states. These states are induced by exposing the subject to a specific set of audiovisual stimulations upon which the EM waves are captured from ten different regions of the subject's body by using a handheld device called Resonant Field Imaging (RFI™). Nine subjects are randomly chosen and the collected data are then preprocessed and trained by Bayesian Network (BN) to map the EM wave to the corresponding affective states. Preliminary results demonstrate the ability of the BN to predict human affective state with 80.6% precision, and 90% accuracy.","PeriodicalId":385258,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE Symposium on Computer Applications and Industrial Electronics (ISCAIE)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-04-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122517604","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}

Variation in lighting conditions result in degradation in performance of face detection. Thermal images are not affected by variation in illumination.

Horizontal projection of the image is calculated to identify the global minimum that helps in identifying height and width of the head region. We have developed a UTAR-YK Thermal database to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm. Experimental results show that our proposed algorithm has an average accuracy of 92.16%, that is measured by finding the overlapping ratio between the automatically-detected face region and manually drawn face region.

The moduli set adopted is {2k - 1, 2k, 2k-1 - 1}. The proposed method uses Stored Coefficient Product (SCP) to compute the multiplication of input with the filter coefficient. Further, the circular shift property of the moduli set is exploited to improve the performance of the filter. The two proposed filters, RNS_P1 and RNS_P2, are compared with the conventional RNS-FIR filter (RNS_C) which uses the moduli set {2k - 1, 2k, 2k + 1}. The filters are implemented with VerilogHDL and are synthesized using Cadence RTL compiler in UMC 90nm technology. The performance of the filters are compared in terms of Area (A), Power (P), Delay (D) and Power-Delay Product (PDP). In comparison to RNS_C, the filter RNS_P1 improves gain in area by 75% and power by 72%, whereas RNS_P2 provides gain of 67% in area and 67.5% in power.

Memristor SPICE models are important for designers to exhibit memristor behavior since memristor is not yet available in market. Among important parameters in memristor SPICE model is RON, ROFF and TiO2 thickness. This is because different RON and ROFF value results in different switching behavior. In this paper, RON and ROFF are obtained from fabricated memristor graph gradient. The values are applied as memristor model parameters. The behavior of this model is in agreement with the measurements of fabricated memristor. Next, NAND and NOR circuits are designed using the SPICE model and circuits are working based on the simulation results. The memristor SPICE model parameters are based on fabricated memristor model and it has similar behavior with fabricated memristor model.
