An Improved Sentiment Analysis Algorithm Based on Appraisal Theory and Fuzzy Logic

Millions of comments and opinions are posted daily on websites such as Twitter or Facebook. Users share their opinions on various topics. People need to know the opinions of other people in order to purchase consciously. Businesses also need customers’ opinions and big data analysis to continue serving customer-friendly services, manage customer complaints and suggestions, increase financial benefits, evaluate products, as well as for marketing and business development. With the development of social media, the importance of sentiment analysis has increased, and sentiment analysis has become a very popular topic among computer scientists and researchers, because it has many usages in market and customer feedback analysis. Most sentiment analysis methods suffice to split comments into three negative, positive and neutral categories. But Appraisal Theory considers other characteristics of opinion such as attitude, graduation and orientation which results in more precise analysis. Therefore, this research has proposed an algorithm that increases the accuracy of the sentiment analysis algorithms by combining appraisal theory and fuzzy logic. This algorithm was tested on Stanford data (25,000 comments on the film) and compared with a reliable dictionary. Finally, the algorithm reached the accuracy of 95%. The results of this research can help to manage customer complaints and suggestions, marketing and business development, and product testing.
Printed Fork shaped Monopole Antenna for UWB Applications with Band Rejection Characteristics

This article describes the design of a band rejection characteristics using fork shaped patch antenna for Ultra-wide-band (UWB) applications. Two bands WiMAX (3.3-3.7 GHz) and C-band satellite communications (3.7-4.2 GHz) is filtered out by inserting two asymmetrical L-shaped in each arm of the tuning fork shaped patch. The 50 ohm Microstrip feed-line is used to excite the antenna. The Ansoft's HFSS V.13. 0 electromagnetic suite is used to simulate the suggested antenna using low cost glass epoxy FR-4 substrate having relative permittivity 4.4 and loss tangent 0.02. The suggested antenna shows gain at satisfactory level with omnidirectional radiation characteristics over the entire UWB band.
Improvement of Key Agreement Scheme Using ESPAR Antenna

Recently, secret key agreement schemes utilizing the characteristics of radio propagation have been proposed [1–3]. They are based on the reciprocity and the locality of the radio propagation characteristics. In particular, the secret key agreement scheme using an electronically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR) antenna [4] is more e ffective for environments where the fluctuation of the radio propagation characteristics is slow such as indoor wireless LAN environments [2]. In the secret key agreement scheme using the ESPAR antenna, a secret key is generated based on a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) profile. However, in specific environments, there exist positions where the RSSI profiles of legitimate parties and an eavesdropper are highly correlated. Since the secret key is generated by the RSSI profile, the secret key of the legitimate parties might be estimated by the eavesdropper in the situation. In this paper, we propose an improved key generation scheme in which appropriate RSSI values are selected to generate a key and also the carrier frequency to measure the RSSI is switched to enhance the security of the secret key agreement scheme.
Will “ Talented Outliers ” Help Improve Team Performance ? The Significance of Feedback Learning

The effect of personality heterogeneity on team performance is an important topic in organization studies [Neuman et. al, 1999; Mohammed and Angell, 2003; Molleman, 2005 ]. Typically, an opposite pair of personality could be identified in a team: on one hand, most people are disciplined and rule-followers, whose performance displays a great extent of conformity and is highly predictable; on the other hand, in many working groups, a minority of people have great talents but an unruly behavior: they often behave as outliers in the team, who can sometimes make extraordinary good performance but display high ego and often greater turnover rate [Wagner and Moch, 1986 ]. Their unforeseen talents could often help the team at risk, but their overall performance is less satisfactory. In this paper, we refer to the first personal type as “normal players” and the second as “talented outliers” [Gladwell, 2008 ].
Data Quality Assurance via Perioperative EMR Reconciliation Completed Research

This research examines systematic quality control checks (QCCs) developed to safeguard the data quality assurance of perioperative electronic medical records (EMRs). The resulting perioperative EMR reconciled data supports patient care documentation, patient billing, perioperative data analysis, and regulatory agency audits. This case study identifies specific perioperative nursing care documentation as EMRs and demonstrates how data QCC rules, an embedded QCC review process, and QCC rule violation reconciliation applied to perioperative EMRs are applicable to ensure data quality within integrated hospital information systems. Identification of existing limitations, potential capabilities, and the subsequent contextual understanding yield an a priori framework for data quality assurance of perioperative process EMR data. Based on a 174-month longitudinal study of a large 1,157 registered-bed academic medical center, the case results are discussed as well as theoretical and practical implications with study limitations.
Comparison of explicit and implicit social networks constructed from communication data

Social networks can be constructed from explicit in formation about who is talking to whom, and/ or inferred from the content of communication. How do the resulting network structu res compare? We provided an answer to this question by constructing explicit social networks from chat logs and compari ng them to implicit social networks built from text data gener ated by these agents. We apply different conceptualizations of si milarity to the text data. This work helps to understand if explici t social networks (what people typically work with) can serve as a pr oxy for the true structure of communication networks. Our findings suggest that the more simplistic appro ach on the lexical level outperforms the more complex, topic b ased approach. This means that reconstructing social networks base d on lexical features is the best option tested, while detecting alternative and additional latent structures of people sharing the same topical knowledge requires looking for thematic clusters of w rd use.

Effect of Turret Location on Hydrodynamic Motion of Ship-Shaped FPSO Adibah

As Malaysia has start deep water oil exploration ne ar offshore Sabah, more floating structures have been installed . However, less study has been conducted on FPSO with turret m ooring system in Malaysia seawater especially in offshore Borneo. Even though offshore Borneo is part of South China Sea, the environmental condition is milder and its exhibit s trong current from depth 50m to 150m. Hence, the present study an alyzed the influence of turret location to surge, sway, heave, pitch, roll and yaw motions effect on the FPSO Kikeh operating in K keh Field. A simulation on FPSO Kikeh with five different turr et locations in regular wave and collinear sea states have been done. From the analysis on the simulations, it is found that yaw m otions become critical as turret distance from bow increases. Bes ides that, roll motion increases as yaw motion increases and this i s due to coupling effect. Turret at bow is the best design f or FPSO operating in Kikeh because it has the lowest struct u e excursion and lowest mooring lines tension. In addition, the environmental force exerted on the structure also low.
Review of the Chrysiptera oxycephala complex of damselfishes ( Pomacentridae ) with descriptions of three new species from the East Indian Archipelago

The nominal species Chrysiptera oxycephala has been considered a widespread species in the East Indian Archipelago, but genetic analyses and a closer examination of populations throughout the region now show it to be another example of a species complex of closely related parapatric cryptic species and genovariant populations. Three DNA lineages correlate with different color patterns and are described here as new species, including Chrysiptera ellenae (Raja Ampat, West Papua, Indonesia), Chrysiptera maurineae (Cenderawasih Bay, West Papua, Indonesia), and Chrysiptera papuensis (northeastern Papua New Guinea). The original C. oxycephala has the widest distribution, including central Indonesia, Sabah, Philippines, and Palau, as well as a local population in Sulawesi with a divergent mtDNA lineage, but no apparent phenotypic difference (Lembeh genovariant). An additional previously described species, C. sinclairi, is restricted to oceanic insular areas of northeastern Papua New Guinea. The five members of the species complex share most meristic and morphometric features, although some differences are evident in the modes and range of fin-ray counts and the number of scales (combined) on the preorbital and suborbital bones. Nevertheless, color patterns, especially those of small juveniles, distinguish the 57 five species, i.e. small juveniles entirely light blue (not persisting into adulthood) in C. ellenae; blue with a dark streak on each scale (and pattern persisting into adulthood) in C. sinclairi; light blue anterodorsally and yellow posteroventrally with a blue streak on upper caudal peduncle in C. maurineae; and light blue anterodorsally and yellow posteroventrally but no blue streak on upper edge of caudal peduncle in C. papuensis and C. oxycephala, but the former has the bicolor pattern with a bright yellow tail persisting into adulthood. The geographic distribution corresponds directly with color-pattern differences and mitochondrial-DNA lineages. The divergence in the control-region mtDNA sequence between the five species in the complex ranges from 2.9–10.9%, with the closest relationship between the species pair of C. maurineae and C. sinclairi, who nevertheless have very different color patterns and also differ in meristics. The two mtDNA lineages within C. oxycephala diverge by 3%, greater than the difference between C. maurineae and C. sinclairi. These results indicate that genotypic divergence does not necessarily correlate well with phenotypic divergence within cryptic-species complexes of reef fishes.
Probing magnetar physics through high time – resolved spectroscopy of X – ray flashes Israel

In January 1979, for the first time, recurrent short ( <100ms) and intense γ-ray bursts were detected from a source in the direction of the Galactic center, later named SGR1806-20. Since then, many advances have been achieved in the study of this class of high energy emitting isolated neutron stars, thought to shine in the X-rays due to the decay of t he s rongest magnetic fields present in the Universe ( > 1015 Gauss). In the following a number of recent results will be re ported and discussed with particular emphasis on the short and inte nse vents displayed by this class of objects. Time resolved spectroscopic studies of the flare em ission from magnetars was in fact used to infer information related to the neutron star and mag netosphere structure, the emitting processes, and the confined fireball properties. In particul ar, within the magnetar model, the majority of these findings can be accounted for in terms of therm alised emission from the E-mode and O-mode photospheres.
Virginia Woolf ’ s To the Lighthouse : A Comparative Study Based on Newmark ’ s and Lakoff and Johnson ’ s Classifications of Metaphors

The present study was devoted to compare the use of most frequent kinds of metaphors in Woolf’s (1994) To the Lighthouse and two Persian translations of this novel by Hosseini (2008) and Keyhan (2007) based on Lakoff and Johnson’s (1980) and Newmark’s (1988) classifications of metaphors. The study also aimed to find out how much the source text and the two translations are similar in using metaphors. Following the model Emami (1993) used in the analysis of The Adventures of Haji Baba of Isphahan, 45 pages of To the Lighthouse were chosen from the first, middle, and final sections of the novel for the metaphorical analyses. The results of the study revealed that ontological metaphors and standard metaphors were used more frequently than the other kinds of metaphors in the source text and the two translations. The results of chi-square tests showed that in terms of Lakoff and Johnson’s classification, there were no statistically significant differences between either of the two translations and the source text and no statistically significant differences between the two translations. On the other hand, regarding Newmark’s classification, though there were no statistically significant differences between the two translations, there were statistically significant differences between either of the two translations and the source text. Moreover, the two classifications of metaphors were put together to see how much correspondence exists between them. The results indicated that ontological, orientational, and structural metaphors are highly correspondent to standard metaphors.
High-resolution array-CGH and expression profiling identifies a novel genomic subtype of ER negative breast cancer

Background: Characterisation of copy number alteration patterns in breast cancer requires high-resolution genome-wide profiling of a large panel of tumor specimens. To date, most genome-wide array comparative genomic hybridisation studies have used tumor panels of relatively large tumor size and high Nottingham Prognostic Index (NPI) that are not as representative of breast cancer demographics. Results: We performed an oligo array based high-resolution analysis of copy number alterations in 171 primary breast tumors of relatively small size and low NPI and therefore more representative of breast cancer demographics. Hierarchical clustering over the common regions of alteration identified a novel subtype of high grade ER negative breast cancer, characterised by a low genomic instability index. We were able to validate the existence of this genomic subtype in one external breast cancer cohort. Using matched array expression data we also identified the genomic regions showing the strongest coordinate expression changes (“hotspots”). We show that many of these hotspots are located in the phosphatome, kinome and chromatinome and harbor members of the 122-breast cancer CAN-list. Furthermore, we identify frequently amplified hotspots on 8q22.3 (EDD1, WDSOF1), 8q24.11-13 (THRAP6, DCC1, SQLE, SPG8) and 11q14.1 (NDUFC2, ALG8, USP35) associated with significantly worse prognosis. Amplification of any of these regions identified 37 samples with significantly worse overall survival (HR=2.3 (1.3-4) P = 0.003) and time to distant metastasis (HR=2.6 (1.4-5.1) P = 0.004) independently of NPI. Conclusions: We present strong evidence for the existence of a novel subtype of high-grade ER negative tumors that is characterised by a low genomic instability index. We also provide a genome-wide list of common copy number alteration regions in breast cancer that show strong coordinate aberrant expression, and further identify novel frequently amplified regions that correlate with poor prognosis. Many of the genes associated with these regions represent likely novel oncogenes or tumor suppressors.
Exchange Rates in a Behavioural Finance Framework

We develop a simple model of the foreign exchange market in which agents optimize their portfolio and use different forecasting rules. They check the profitability of these rules ex post and select the more profitable one.This model produces two kinds of equilibria, a fundamental and a bubble one. In a stochastic environment the model generates a complex dynamics in which bubbles and crashes occur at unpredictable moments. We also analyse the empirical relevance of the model
Mass Concentration and Primary Particle Size of Metal Nanoparticle Agglomerates from Spark Discharge Measured by Universal NanoParticle Analyzer

Introduction Many nanomaterials are manufactured in the form of nanoparticle agglomerates, which are made up of clusters or chains of nanosize spheres referred to as primary particles. Combustion processes are used to manufacture a variety of materials in agglomerate form including fumed silica, titanium dioxide, and carbon black (Pratsinis 1998 [1] , Wang et al. 2011 [2] ). Diesel particulate and soot from building fires are also known to be in agglomerated form (Kim et al. 2009 [3] ). Agglomerates may possess complicated structures, which makes measurement a difficult task. One of the most common methods for agglomerate measurement is electron microscopy, which can provide direct measurement of the structural properties (Koylu et al. 1995 [4] , Rogak et al. 1993 [5] , Shin et al. 2009 [6] among many others). However, taking electrical micrographs and performing image analysis can be time consuming and expensive. In addition, interpretation of the 2D images for 3D results may rely on assumptions and cause inaccuracy. Fast and online measurement for agglomerates is required in many scenarios including measuring fast changing agglomerates, quality control for material manufacturing, monitoring toxic airborne agglomerates, etc. Most of the current aerosol instruments are designed for spherical particles. Therefore, there is a need for instruments capable of fast and online measurement of gas-borne nanoparticle agglomerates.
Learning Numbers in Different Languages : Chinese versus Malay

This study investigated the impact of learning to use the Chinese or the Malay counting system on children's number development. Both languages are used as the medium of instruction in Malaysian national primary schools. It was predicted that Chinese learners would perform better than Malay learners on all number tasks because Chinese is a more regular counting system. Children (N = 120; age 7 years) from two primary schools in Malaysia answered four number tasks (counting, hundred squares, a shop task, and a number line task) in their language of instruction. Chinese-speaking children outperformed their Malay-speaking peers in all tasks; the difference was statistically significant even after controlling for differences in socio-economic status and mother’s education. The results supported the theory that the level of transparency of number systems influences children’s ability to generate number names.

BACK ANALYSES OF STONE CANYON DAM FOR THE 1994 NORTHRIDGE EARTHQUAKE

Stone Canyon Dam is a 225-ft high zoned earthfill dam located in Los Angeles, California. Downstream portions of the dam rest on up to 75 feet of potentially liquefiable alluvium. As part of an extensive field investigation and site characterization study, back analyses of the dam’s performance during the 1994 Northridge Earthquake were performed. At the time of the earthquake, strong motion instruments located at the dam crest and left abutment did not trigger. However, fortuitously, ground motions were recorded by a temporary station located on a ridgetop near the right abutment. Following the earthquake, to measure topographic effects during aftershocks, weak motion instruments were installed at the ridgetop and at the base of the ridge. Analysis of the aftershock recordings by these instruments suggests that the ridgetop significantly amplified ground motions with respect to the base of the ridge for shorter periods. This paper describes adaptation of the recorded ridgetop motion for use as input to the dam foundation, for use in various numerical back analyses performed to check that the shear strength and elastic properties derived from the site characterization effort are consistent with the dam’s performance during the Northridge Earthquake. 1 AECOM, 300 South Grand Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90071 (email: ethan.dawson@aecom.com) 2 AECOM, 300 South Grand Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90071 3 AECOM, 300 South Grand Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90071 4 AECOM, 300 South Grand Avenue, Los Angeles, CA 90071 5 Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, 111 North Hope Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012 6 Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, 111 North Hope Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012 Dawson E, Somerville P, Skarlatoudis A, Nesarajah N, Hu J, Tatone F.

MODELING OF FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEMS IN INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS

A mechatronic approach is essential in intelligent buildings (IB) to effectively integrate a number of services and systems such as elevators, power systems, heating ventilation and air conditioning, lighting and fire protection system (FPS). From the point of view of property damage and personal security, the FPS is one of the most important systems in an IB. The FPS is composed of many devices and control strategies. Furthermore, it must act in acordance with specific laws. As a consequence the design of FPSs is a complex task and it is very important to provide an adequate model that supports the verification of the FPS dynamics and its integration with others building systems, facilitating its test and validation. In this context, this work proposes a procedure to model in a systematic and rational way a FPS in the IB context. Considering the nature of the structure and processes of FPS the approach is based on the discrete event dynamic system theory and the application of the Petri net. The approach models the FPS control system and the controlled plant including its integration with other building systems. Particularly, it explores Petri net extensions such as Production Flow Schema and Mark Flow Graph techniques. Through an example it is illustrated the main aspects of the proposed procedure.
Analysis of Algorithms used in Biometric using Fingerprint Authentication for 3 D Authentication System

In today’s era, security has great significance on everyone’s forum. Biometric appears as a promising tool for 3D Authentication System to further increase the degree of security. Several biometric features like face recognition, fingerprint recognition, iris recognition, heartbeat recognition etc. are widely used. Biometric allude to metrics related to human characteristics. In computer science, Biometrics authentication is used as a form of identification and access control. Biometric identifiers are reliable and unique for individuals based on their physiological (shape of the body) and behavioural (the pattern of behaviour of a person) characteristics. In this paper, we will analyse the algorithms used in biometrics using finger print authentication for 3D authentication system.
