Supporting awareness of pointing behavior among diverse groups

The Internet is a valuable resource for accessing health information and resources. However, for individuals that experience sustained or temporary changes in hand mobility, using an input device to navigate the Internet can be difficult. Further, variances in hand mobility among individuals with different abilities make it difficult to design assistive technology solutions that support a wide range of needs. We present findings from an exploratory study with three diverse groups with different motor abilities to understand their preferences for pointing behavior information collected through automatic tracking. We found that overall participants did not find pointing information useful without assistance, while younger and older adults valued quantified pointing information differently.
Chinese Mongolian numerals alignment based on Arabic numerals transformation

In the context of dictionary based Chinese Mongolian word alignment task,this paper proposed an approach to align Chinese Mongolian numerals.The main idea of the approach is to transform Chinese and Mongolian numerals into the Arabic numerals respectively before calculating their similarities and aligning them.The transformation is based on a two dimensional list called numtable,which includes the basic Chinese(or Mongolian) numerals and the corresponding Arabic numerals.Each numeral in the numtable is assigned an indicative value of "1" or "2",indicating whether the numeral in question is a multiple of "10". According to the indicative value,the transformation module carried out a series of inference and transformed the Chinese and Mongolian numerals into the Arabic numerals respectively.In the whole transforming process,not only the divergence between Chinese and Mongolian numerals were taken into account,but the different types of numerals in each language were handled differently.

A Hybrid Port-Knocking Technique for Host Authentication

This chapter presents the detail description of a Port-Knocking (PK) technique, which should avert all types of port attacks and meets all other network security requirements. The new technique utilizes four well-known concepts, these are: PK, cryptography, steganography, and mutual authentication; therefore, it is referred to as the Hybrid Port-Knocking (HPK) technique. It is implemented as two separate modules. One is installed and run on the server computer, either behind the network firewall or on the firewall itself, and the other one is installed and run on the client computer. The first module is referred to as the HPK server, while the second is the HPK client. In terms of data processing, the technique consists of five main processes; these are: request packetization and transmission, traffic monitoring and capturing, mutual authentication, request extraction and execution, and port closing. The HPK technique demonstrates immunity against two vital attacks, namely, the TCP replay and Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks.
Application model based on domain-driven design

Domain-Driven Design(DDD)is introduced by Evans E. to track complexity in the software,which has been proved effectively in practical.However,it lacks of fine-grained definition of some details and depends on the high-quality of the developers and so on.Based on the analysis of a number of business systems,the common operations of business object are abstracted,and an application model of DDD is proposed to guide the system design and development.Meanwhile,a framework is proposed to encapsulate common properties and operations of business system.In practical,this framework has been proved to assist the software development and improve the efficiency and reduce effort.

Speech Act as a Basis of Understanding Dialogue Coherence with Reference to English-Arabic Translation

The present study tackles speech act as a basis of understanding dialogue coherence in English and its translation into Arabic. Speech act theory deals with the functions and uses of language; so in the broadest sense, it might be said that speech acts are all the acts we perform through speaking, all the things we do when we speak. This study aims at (1) studying whether Speech Act Theory can be applied to English dialogues, (2) attempting to modify and reframe Searle’s felicity conditions according to the categories of speech acts,(3) translating selected samples so as to show how they are realized in Arabic, (4) comparing source language texts with their renderings to show similarities and differences between them, and (5) showing the type of method that has been followed by BBC. committee for rendering the dialogues under investigation. To achieve the above mentioned aims, the study hypothesizes that: (1) speech acts in English can be translated into Arabic despite the cultural and syntactic divergences between languages in question, (2) both English and Arabic dialogues use a variety of various patterns of speech acts, and (3) there is no one-to-one formal correspondence between speech acts in English and their realizations in Arabic. The study is based on a corpus of (01) exchanges involving speech acts. These utterances are translated by (BBC). Each exchange analysis is in terms of speech act analysis and translation discussion. The main findings the study arrived at are: (1) most of speech acts of the utterances belong to directive and assertive categories thus coherence has been achieved.

Amazon Mechanical Turk: A Web-Based Tool for Facilitating Experimental Research in ANLP

One of the major challenges of ANLP research is the constant balancing act between the need for large samples, and the excessive time and monetary resources necessary for acquiring those samples. Amazon’s Mechanical Turk (MTurk) is a web-based data collection tool that has become a premier resource for researchers who are interested in optimizing their sample sizes and minimizing costs. Due to its supportive infrastructure, diverse participant pool, quality of data, and time and cost efficiency, MTurk seems particularly suitable for ANLP researchers who are interested in gathering large, high quality corpora in relatively short time frames. In this chapter, the authors first provide a broad description of the MTurk interface. Next, they describe the steps for acquiring IRB approval of MTurk experiments, designing experiments using the MTurk dashboard, and managing data. Finally, the chapter concludes by discussing the potential benefits and limitations of using MTurk for ANLP experimentation. DOI: 10.4018/978-1-61350-447-5.ch007

A Hierarchical Clustering Method Based on the Threshold of Semantic Feature in Big Data

② (School of Electronics and Information Engineering, Hunan University of Science and Engineering, Yongzhou 425006, China) Abstract: The type and scale of data has been promoted with a hitherto unknown speed by the emerging services including cloud computing, health care, street view services recommendation system and so on. However, the surge in the volume of data may lead to many common problems, such as the representability, reliability and handlability of data. Therefore, how to effectively handle the relationship between the data and the analysis to improve the efficiency of classification of the data and establish the data clustering analysis model has become an academic and business problem, which needs to be solved urgently. A hierarchical clustering method based on semantic feature is proposed. Firstly, the data should be trained according to the semantic features of data, and then is used the training result to process hierarchical clustering in each subset; finally, the density center point is produced. This method can improve the efficiency and accuracy of data clustering. This algorithm is of low complexity about sampling, high accuracy of data analysis and good judgment. Furthermore, the algorithm is easy
Evaluating the Effect of Ownership Structure on Firm Performance: Evidence from Saudi Arabian Listed Companies

The study aims to evaluate the relation between ownership structure and firm performance; the sample included 171 firms from all the sectors in (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) KSA for two years, 2013–2014. Two dimensions of ownership structure were studied, concentration and identity of owner, which was subdivided into foreign, managerial, family and institutional ownership. One major financial tool was used to measure firm performance: return on assets (ROA). The study evaluated this relation using several control variables which are: firm size, firm age, financial leverage and industry sector. Ownership concentration was found to have a positive, statistically insignificant effect on company performance. Institutional ownership was found to have a positive effect on company performance. Managerial ownership did not have a significant effect on company performance; however, managerial ownership had a positive effect on performance. Foreign ownership was found to have a negative, statistically significant effect on firm performance, and family ownership was found to have a positive and statistically insignificant effect on firm performance. Other results were revealed by the study regarding company age, size, leverage and sector. The study contributes to the debate about agency theory and the separation that exists between shareholders and management. The study may benefit many interested groups in the KSA and other countries in making business decisions concerning this topic and other related decisions.
Identification of Motor Functions Based on an EEG Analysis

A combination of several techniques is necessary for a reliable identification of activities based on EEG signals. A separation of the overlapping patterns in the EEG signals is often performed first. These separated patterns are then analysed by some artificial intelligence methods in order to identify the activity. As pattern separation and activity identification are often linked, the two processes must be tuned to a specific problem, thus losing some generality of the procedure. The complexity of the patterns in EEG signals is often too great for completely automated pattern recognition. In this case, phase demodulation was introduced as a procedure for the extraction of the phase properties of the EEG signals. These phase shifts are known to correlate with the brain activity; therefore, phase-demodulated EEG signals were used to predict the motor activity. Three studies with off-line identification of the motor activities have been performed so far. In the first study, a continuous gripping force was predicted. In the second study, indexand middle-finger activation was predicted, and in the final study, wrist movements were analysed. The presented procedure can be used for designing a continuous brain-computer interface. DOI: 10.4018/978-1-4666-1803-9.ch011

Remote sensing QPE uncertainties associated with sub-pixel rainfall variation

Rain gauge networks are used to calibrate and validate quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) methods based on remote sensing, which may be used as data sources for hydrologic models. The typical approach is to adjust (calibrate) or compare (validate) the rainfall in the QPE pixel with the rain gauge located within the pixel. The QPE result represents a mean rainfall over the pixel area, whereas the rainfall from the gauge represents a point, although it is normally assumed to represent some area. In some cases the QPE pixel area may be millions of square meter in size. We hypothesize that many rain gauge networks in environments similar to this study (i.e., tropical coastal), which provide only one rain gauge per remote sensing pixel, may lead to error when used to calibrate/validate QPE methods, and that consequently these errors may be propagated throughout the hydrologic models. The objective of this paper is to describe a ground-truth rain gauge network located in western Puerto Rico which will be available to test our hypothesis. In this paper we discuss results from the rain gauge network, but do not present any QPE validation results. In addition to being valuable for validating satellite and radar QPE data, the rain gauge network is being used to test and calibrate atmospheric simulation models and to gain a better understanding of the sea breeze effect and its influence on rainfall. In this study, 62 storms were evaluated between August 2006 and August 2007. The area covered by the rain gauge network was limited to a single GOES-12 pixel (4 km × 4 km). Five-minute and total storm rainfall amounts were spatially variable at the sub-pixel scale. Average storm rainfall from more than a quarter (27%) of the 3,627 rain gauge-pairs evaluated were significantly different at the 5% of significance level, indicating significant rainfall variation at the sub-pixel scale. The majority of storms during the study period were locally formed by sea breezes and heating, although the 27% of gauges whose average rainfall amounts were significantly different could not be correlated with any single type of storm.

A signature scheme with shared verification based on verifiable secret sharing

First, an existing signature scheme with (t,n) shared verification is analyzed, and its security weak points are found. These weak points can result in the adversary to cheat the verification group by forgery and substitution attack. Next, using the techniques of verifiable secret sharing, a secure signature shceme with shared verification based on the discrete logarithm is proposed, which has a novel property that the previous signature schemes with shared verification do not have, that is, to prevent the signer and members of the verification group from cheating.
Waveform-level time-domain simulation comparison study of three shipboard power system architectures

Detailed waveform-level modeling and simulation of three alternative shipboard power system architectures are presented herein. The three system architectures are based on conventional 60Hz medium-voltage ac (MVAC), higherfrequency 240Hz medium-voltage ac (HFAC) and mediumvoltage dc (MVDC) technologies. To support the quantitative assessment and comparison of these three different power system architectures, each technology was modeled using a common representative, notional baseline ship. The baseline ship represents a multi-mission destroyer fitted with an 80MW next generation integrated power system (NGIPS). Modeling of each power system architecture is set forth along with simulation studies for three fault scenarios. Each of the three power system architectures was implemented within the MATLAB/ Simulink environment. Continuity of service was evaluated for each architecture along with a fault scenario using an operability metric. After a brief description of the three power system architectures and the operability metric, quantitative results are presented.
