Given the presence of handwritten documents in human transactions, including email sorting, bank checks, and automating procedures, handwritten characters recognition (HCR) of documents has been invaluable to society. Handwritten Chinese characters (HCC) can be divided into offline and online categories. Online HCC recognition (HCCR) involves the trajectory movement of the pen tip for expressing linguistic content. In contrast, offline HCCR involves analyzing and categorizing the sample binary or grayscale images of characters. As recognition technology develops, academics' interest in Chinese character recognition has continuously increased, as it significantly affects social and economic development. Recent development in this area is promising. …

Sepsis is a major global health concern causing high morbidity and mortality rates. Our study utilized a Meningococcal Septic Shock (MSS) temporal dataset to investigate the correlation between gene expression (GE) changes and clinical features. The research used Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) to establish links between gene expression and clinical parameters in infants admitted to the Pediatric Critical Care Unit with MSS. Additionally, various machine learning (ML) algorithms, including Support Vector Machine (SVM), Naive Bayes, K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Decision Tree, Random Forest, and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) were implemented to predict sepsis survival. The findings revealed a transition …

Correctly determining a company’s market worth during an entire year or a certain period presents a difficulty to decision-makers. In the case of the merger of companies, the need performs heavier when both the companies’ owners are attracted to establishing a fair price at the optimal time to merge. The effectiveness of representing, connecting and manipulating both uncertainty and periodicity information becomes highly required. Hence, study and nhance some properties and conditions of the algebraic structure of complex hesitant fuzzy graphs. Therefore, the degree of composition between two complex hesitant fuzzy graphs is proposed. Also, the formal definitions of union, …

Federated Learning (FL) is a state-of-the-art paradigm used in Edge Computing (EC). It enables distributed learning to train on cross-device data, achieving efficient performance, and ensuring data privacy. In the era of Big Data, the Internet of Things (IoT), and data streaming, challenges such as monitoring and management remain unresolved. Edge IoT devices produce and stream huge amounts of sample sources, which can incur significant processing, computation, and storage costs during local updates using all data samples. Many research initiatives have improved the algorithm for FL in homogeneous networks. However, in the typical distributed learning application scenario, data is generated …


Forecasting Networks Links With Laplace Characteristic And Geographical Information In Complex Networks, Muhammad Wasim, Feras Al-Obeidat, Fernando Moreira, Haji Gul, Adnan Amin Jan 2023

Forecasting Networks Links With Laplace Characteristic And Geographical Information In Complex Networks, Muhammad Wasim, Feras Al-Obeidat, Fernando Moreira, Haji Gul, Adnan Amin

Forecasting links in a network is a crucial task in various applications such as social networks, internet traffic management, and data mining. Many studies on forecasting links in social networks and on other networks have been conducted over the last decade. In this paper, we propose a novel method based on graph Laplacian eigenmaps for predicting the geographic location of nodes in complex networks. Our method utilizes the adjacency matrix of the network and generates a scoring matrix that captures the similarity between nodes in terms of their geographic location. By transforming the distance matrices into score matrices using exponential …

Big Data's 5 V complexities are making it increasingly difficult to develop an understanding of the end to end process. Big Data platforms play a crucial role in many critical systems, combining with Internet-of-Things, Artificial Intelligence and Business Analytics. It is both relevant and important to understand Big Data systems to identify the best tools that fit the requirements of heterogeneous platforms. The objective of this paper is to "discover" a set of design principles and rules for Cloud-based Big Data platforms for complex, heterogeneous environments. The design scope comprises Big Data's significance, challenges and architectural impacts. Using a methodology …

© 2019 AECE. Despite availability of various image sources for specific areas, a new disaster management system is likely to be implemented by using only one of them. Thus, its applicability and extensibility are severely limited. In addition, real-time update for the disaster area is one of the crucial functions for search and rescue activities. To meet the aforementioned requirements, in this paper, we propose a new spatial data infrastructure by defining the methodological scheme for the raster information. The proposed system has four respective layers to reduce the management cost as well as provide a flexible architecture. In each …

Junction Trees Constructions In Bayesian Networks, Linda Smail

All Works

© Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd. Junction trees are used as graphical structures over which propagation will be carried out through a very important property called the ruining intersection property. This paper examines an alternative method for constructing junction trees that are essential for the efficient computations of probabilities in Bayesian networks. The new proposed method converts a sequence of subsets of a Bayesian network into a junction tree, in other words, into a set of cliques that has the running intersection property. The obtained set of cliques and separators coincide with the junction trees obtained by the …

Recent studies have reported that Support Vector Regression (SVR) has the potential as a technique for software development effort estimation. However, its prediction accuracy is heavily influenced by the setting of parameters that needs to be done when employing it. No general guidelines are available to select these parameters, whose choice also depends on the characteristics of the dataset being used. This motivated the work described in (Corazza et al. 2010), extended herein. In order to automatically select suitable SVR parameters we proposed an approach based on the use of the meta-heuristics Tabu Search (TS). We designed TS to search …
