Simplicity and limited functionality of these particles, as well as the decentralized computing and the uncertain dynamics of the human body environment are some of major challenges in this area. In this paper, we propose that equipping the nano-agents with learning ability provides high robustness against the uncertainties and changing dynamics of the human body. In particular, we propose a swarm of learning nano-agents for the treatment of Atherosclerosis. The swarm learns to approximate the desirable drug release function that changes in time according to the environmental conditions of the disease location. For this purpose, we use radial basis function neuron structures that can adapt with human body. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed method in terms of disease control time and drug release rate, as well as robustness against possible disturbances.","PeriodicalId":405857,"journal":{"name":"2015 The International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Signal Processing (AISP)","volume":"429 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116700889","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 problem, i.e., influence maximization, is called “maximizing product adoption” in marketing applications. In this paper, we first propose a multi-agent framework called MAFIM to be used for maximizing product adoption in dynamic social networks. MAFIM consists of two types of agents: modeling agents and solution provider agents. These agents view a dynamic social network as consecutive static network snapshots and regarding that, choose a budget assignment policy so that each snapshot obtains its share from the budget defined by the sales manager. Based on MAFIM, we present MASPEL, a single product model which takes network communities, their judgments on each other and their profitabilities into account. MASPEL makes use of a specific budget assignment policy in which budgets are assigned to advertisement campaigns in a progressively decreasing manner. We applied our model on several real and synthetic dynamic social networks then evaluated the effectiveness of different campaign lengths. Our results show that it is more effective to launch many short-lived campaigns instead of few long-lived ones. It was also observed that betweenness has the best performance among centrality-based heuristics in leading the majority towards liking the advertised product.","PeriodicalId":405857,"journal":{"name":"2015 The International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Signal Processing (AISP)","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115111375","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 concept of SOC was first developed for modeling Mass Extinction and implemented by means of Sand Pile model in EAs. These types of EAs are especially employed when the optimization problems are multimodal in which preserving the diversity of solutions is a crucial task. Therefore analyzing the problems of SOC based EAs is worthwhile for making a progress in the field of multimodal optimization. Consequently, after an exact inspection of past research studies, the major shortcomings of previously developed algorithms are addressed which are twofold: firstly, the lack of avalanches in early generations, and secondly, the number of avalanches occurred in a population is out of proportion in terms of population size. In order to resolve these problems, some solutions are proposed in this study. The impact of these modifications are examined and illustrated by means of several benchmark optimization problems extracted from past research studies. Modified algorithm is compared and contrasted against previously developed SOC based algorithms and classical Genetic Algorithm (CGA). Results apparently show the effectiveness of eliminating addressed deficiencies in terms of accuracy and escaping from local optima.","PeriodicalId":405857,"journal":{"name":"2015 The International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Signal Processing (AISP)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115206760","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}

Several watermarking methods are reported in recent years to protect copyright of digital images. A good watermarking algorithm must satisfy imperceptibility, robustness and high data hiding capacity but without compromising for any of them. In this paper a novel blind watermarking scheme in Hadamard transform domain for digital image is proposed. For embedding watermark bits we modify the DHT coefficient of two adjacent blocks in same position. Watermark is a string of characters. This algorithm offers advantages of simpler implementation, low computation cost and high resiliency under compression. The experimental results and performance analysis shows good robustness under JPEG image compression and other common image processing operations like cropping, rotation, noise addition and filtering.","PeriodicalId":405857,"journal":{"name":"2015 The International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Signal Processing (AISP)","volume":"11 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114025252","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}

There are users with declared friendship connections but without actual communication and no common interests. Most of the works in this area can be divided into two groups: topology-based and topic-based. The former usually leads to communities each containing diverse topics, and the latter leads to communities each with a consistent topic but with diverse structure. In this paper, we measure the similarity between users using topic models to generate virtual links for users with common interests. Moreover, in order to reduce the effect of useless links between users, we weight the network by measuring similarity of users' topics, so we could generate conforming communities, which contain only one topic or a group of consistent topics. The test results on Enron email dataset have shown the superior performance of our proposed method in the task of community detection.","PeriodicalId":405857,"journal":{"name":"2015 The International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Signal Processing (AISP)","volume":"133 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127364885","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 this paper, we address the problem of diffusion of innovations over multiplex social networks where the neighbours of a person belong to one or multiple networks (or layers) such as friends, families, or colleagues. To this end, we generalise one of the basic game-theoretic diffusion models, called networked coordination game, for multiplex networks. We present analytical results for this extended model and validate them through a simulation study, finding among other properties a lower bound for the success of an innovation. While simple and leading to intuitively understandable results, to the best of our knowledge this is the first extension of a game-theoretic innovation diffusion model for multiplex networks and as such it provides a basic framework to study more sophisticated innovation dynamics.","PeriodicalId":405857,"journal":{"name":"2015 The International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Signal Processing (AISP)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116981636","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}
