However, the ML-kNN algorithm is prone to misjudgement or incomplete judgment of the unseen instance's label set in two special cases: when the number of labels in the training set is not balanced and when the training instances are unevenly distributed in space. Therefore, a weighted ML-kNN algorithm (i.e., wML-kNN) is proposed in this paper. The main idea is to assign different weights to each label according to the proportion of labels and mutual information of the spatial distribution of unseen instances to training instances. This method can reduce the probability of misjudgement of the unseen instance's label set. A comparative study was conducted on four multi-label datasets that included review classification and three other published benchmark multi-label datasets: yeast gene function analysis, natural scene classification, and musical sentiment classification. The results show that the performance of the wML-kNN algorithm is better than the other four multi-label learning algorithms, including ML-kNN.","PeriodicalId":39293,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Internet Manufacturing and Services","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1504/ijims.2019.103861","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42919971","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 high precision and bear great pressure sensors were added to the system to solve the difficult problem of collecting information in deep wells by ordinary sensors. The multi-source heterogeneous data fusion algorithm was added to the system to solve the problem that the format of the data acquisition was different. In conclusion, the completion of the platform could achieve data monitoring in the process of mines.

To address this problem, this paper proposed a personalised process recommendation method that is based on user behaviour preference. This method combines traditional process recommendation with user behaviour similarity and mines user behaviour preference according to the historical tracks of processes that were performed by users. In the execution of a process, the execution trace of a behaviour-similar user and executable candidate activities to be recommended that are provided by conventional process recommendation are analysed. Then, activities or recommended activities for the current user are selected to realise the automatic construction of the entire process to meet the personalised needs of users.

The major challenge that spare parts service providers face is how to achieve desired service levels at a low cost and minimise excess inventory in the global spare parts supply chain. To address this issue, we demonstrate an inventory redeployment strategy that transforms a conventional spare parts supply chain into a closed-loop, multi-echelon service network capable of redeploying inventory from overstocked to understocked facilities, and thus reducing purchases of high-value spare parts. To assess the quality of our novel approach, we used a network flow optimisation model to analyse the proposed excess inventory redeployment strategy based on an international company's service parts operations. Significant inventory cost savings were identified.","PeriodicalId":39293,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Internet Manufacturing and Services","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48453544","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}

Due to occupational safety concerns for the warehouse workers in such a cold environment, this paper describes a Bluetooth-based access management and positioning system (BAMPS) to monitor worker location and movement in chillers and freezers, inspired by the growth of internet of things. In complying with the ISO11079, their occupational safety in term of exposure duration and recovery time in cold environments can be controlled. The Bluetooth low energy module is used for the transmitting and receiving sensing data in the cold storage environment. The positioning module is designed using Kalman filtering to eliminate signal variations instead of pre-requested calibration. Hence, the workplace ergonomics and monitoring in cold storage environment are enhanced. The significance of BAMPS is in exploring occupational safety management and real-time positioning in cold storage facilities.","PeriodicalId":39293,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Internet Manufacturing and Services","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43104049","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}
