An Ontology based Text Mining Approach to Cluster Proposals and Expert Reviewers for Selecting R & D Project

— In many governments and private institutions, one of the major tasks is to select the best project proposals for allocating the fund. These funding organizations select the proposals by grouping and submitting them to the reviewers for review. Manual grouping process is too difficult when the number of projects is more. The earlier models introduced ontology based Text mining methods [1] to cluster the proposals of any language without considering the reviewer’s expertise with respect to their domain. The proposed method identifies the main topic of project in an efficient manner by using ontology based topic identification algorithm. This Proposed model not only categorizes the project proposals, it also clusters the reviewers based on their domain experience by using K-means algorithm. This new approach makes the decision making process of funding organization as easier.

Translating Generalized Algebraic Data Types to System F

Generalized algebraic data types (GADTs) extend ordinary algebraic data types by refining the types of constructors with syntactic equality constraints. This is highly useful and allows for novel applications such as strongly-typed evaluators, typed LR parsing etc. To translate GADTs we need to enrich the System F style typed intermediate languages of modern language implementations to capture these equality constraints. We show that GADTs can be translated to a minor extension of System F where type equality proofs are compiled into System F typable proof terms. At run-time proof terms evaluate to the identity. Hence, they can be safely erased before execution of the program. We provide evidence that our approach scales to deal with extensions where equality is not anymore syntactic. The benefit of our method is that type checking of target programs remains as simple as type checking in System F. Thus, we can offer a light-weight approach to integrate GADTs and extensions of it into existing implementations.
SPATIAL QUERIES ENTITY RECOGNITION AND DISAMBIGUATION USING RULE-BASED APPROACH

In the digital world, search engines have been proposed as one of challenging research areas. One of the main issues in search engines studies is query processing, which its aim is to understand user’s needs. If unsuitable spatial query processing approach is employed, the results will be associated with high degree of ambiguity. To evade such degree of ambiguity, in this paper we present a new algorithm which depends on rule-based systems to process queries. Our algorithm is implemented in the three basic steps including: deductively iterative splitting the query; finding candidates for the location names, the location types and spatial relationships; and finally checking the relationships logically and conceptually using a rule based system. As we finally present in the paper using our proposed method have two major advantages: the search engines can provide the capability of spatial analysis based on the specific process and secondly because of its disambiguation technique, user reaches the more desirable result.
Prioritized constraints in the design of a situated robot

This thesis investigates whether the extended Constraint-Based Agent (CBA) framework with prioritized constraints, using the Constraint Nets in Java (CNJ) tool, is an effective methodology for designing and building Situated Agents in the real world. As an illustrative case study of this design methodology, a situated robot called Ainia, that repeatedly finds, tracks, chases and kicks a soccer ball in the field has been first designed and simulated in CNJ. After modelling the controller, the body, and the environment as separate modules and creating an animation of the system under CNJ, the controller module of Ainia is used unchanged to control a physical robot. The body and environment modules are replaced by the physical robot plant and the external real world, respectively. The results of the study show that the behaviour of the real robot satisfies the constraint-based requirements specification while demanding no changes in the controller. Hence, this thesis provides evidence that the extended CBA approach is an effective framework for Situated Agent construction. It also supports the claim that CNJ is an effective tool for designing and building Situated Agents operating in the real world.

The Circuit Design of Audio Adaptive Filter via Model-Based Design

In this paper, model-based design is used to complete the design of an adaptive filter by Least Mean Square (LMS) algorithm, which implements the recovery process of audio signal disturbed by noise. We can quickly build a system simulation model by model-based design approach, and accomplish efficiently the system test, simulation and implementation. Theoretical analysis and experimental results show that the method of model-based design is not only valuable to the design and implementation of DSP system, but also can significantly improve the design efficiency of the DSP system.
High Speed and Low Latency ECC Implementation over GF(2m) on FPGA

In this paper, a novel high-speed elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) processor implementation for point multiplication (PM) on field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is proposed. A new segmented pipelined full-precision multiplier is used to reduce the latency, and the Lopez-Dahab Montgomery PM algorithm is modified for careful scheduling to avoid data dependency resulting in a drastic reduction in the number of clock cycles (CCs) required. The proposed ECC architecture has been implemented on Xilinx FPGAs' Virtex4, Virtex5, and Virtex7 families. To the best of our knowledge, our single- and three-multiplier-based designs show the fastest performance to date when compared with reported works individually. Our one-multiplier-based ECC processor also achieves the highest reported speed together with the best reported area-time performance on Virtex4 (5.32 μs at 210 MHz), on Virtex5 (4.91 μs at 228 MHz), and on the more advanced Virtex7 (3.18 μs at 352 MHz). Finally, the proposed three-multiplier-based ECC implementation is the first work reporting the lowest number of CCs and the fastest ECC processor design on FPGA (450 CCs to get 2.83 μs on Virtex7).

Incorporating gender and age in genetic algorithms to solve the indexing problem

In this paper we propose new genetic algorithms for the tool indexing problem. Genetic algorithms are said to be nature-inspired, in that they are modeled after the natural process of genetic evolution. The evolution process that they model is asexual in which individuals can potentially live forever. In this paper, we propose a genetic algorithm in which solutions are of two genders, reproduction happens by a combination of solutions with di erent genders, and each solution has a nite life. We compare our genetic algorithms with the best known genetic algorithm for the tool indexing problem and report our computational experience.
Indoor Vision-based Robot Navigation : a Neural Probabilistic Approach

Socially assistive robotics has experienced a steadily growing interest over the last decade. Mobile robots with sensors and external sensing devices, which may also be integrated synergistically, enable a human-like interaction with the environment. As a precondition for assisting a person, a robot needs to navigate to the position of the person first. To achieve this, the robot needs to localize the target person and itself; calculate an optimal trajectory; and adapt its motion in real time during navigation. Despite advances in mobile robotics, autonomous indoor robot navigation is still challenging. Due to the high complexity of the real world and possible dynamical changes, it is hard to localize a person or a robot robustly in an unconstrained environment. Sophisticated sensor systems can improve the localization, but will increase the system costs significantly and require a person with expert knowledge for setup. On the other hand, although it is a mature research field, robot autonomous navigation still relies on artificial landmarks and the accuracy of sensor signals. This limits the flexibility and the robustness of robot navigation as well. In addition to navigation in cluttered environments, a robot needs to cope with dynamic conditions while taking into account the presence of

Improving the Security of Digital Images in Hadamard Transform Domain Using Digital Watermarking

In recent days, due to the advancement in technology there are increasing numbers of threats to multi-media data which are floating around in the Internet especially in the form of image data. Many methods exist to provide security for digital images but transform domain based digital watermarking could be considered as a promising method. Many transformation techniques are used to insert watermark in cover data, but this chapter deals with watermarking approaches in Hadamard transform domain. In traditional watermarking approaches the scaling parameter is empirically considered for inserting watermark but to maintain the quality of underlying cover images it needs to be calculated based on the content of the cover images. In order to make the watermarking algorithm completely automated the embedding and scaling parameters are calculated using the content of cover images. Many methods are existing for calculating scaling parameter adaptively but this chapter discusses various approaches using computational intelligence to arrive at optimum value of scaling and embedding parameters.
Varied & bespoke caregiver needs: organizing and communicating diabetes care for children in the DIY era

Type 1 diabetes in children is a complex chronic condition. It requires high levels of coordination in order to communicate and organize care for best health outcomes. We examined three types of care, at home, at school, and at the clinic, to explore the communication needs of a range of caregivers. Not only were there differences between types of caregiver, but there were also varied personal preferences for communication, different levels of knowledge regarding caregiving that required different forms of communication, and changes in child health leading to different care needs and communication styles. We frame these findings within the new trend of diabetes technologies that allow for cloud connected communication in order to show the need to respect varied and individual communication practices. Technologies that link current health data over the cloud may not have a one-size-fits-all solution for all caregivers, however, open-source DIY health trends may be a way towards supporting personalized communication needs.
Evaluating Technology-Based Instruction (TBI)

Decades ago, instructional evaluation has in most cases focused on the objectives of the lesson, methods of delivering instruction, and outcome learning. This form of evaluation focuses primarily on teaching and learning process within the confines of the classroom and does not include all the factors that impact learning outcome. Instructional practice and its evaluation process are becoming more complex with the application of technology into pedagogy. In order to identify areas of success or failure, all aspects of technologybased instruction need to be evaluated. It is therefore important to evaluate instructional technology as part of a pedagogical process and not as a single, isolated unit. It is also important that technology being used to facilitate instruction be evaluated to determine its appropriateness in meeting the needs of the students and the goals of the instruction. We live in a technological world and as such education cannot isolate itself from technological advances and influences; to do otherwise will render education outcome obsolete. Therefore, technology integration is not an option; it is a necessary mandate in a world that depends on technological skill. Technology-based learning is a dynamic and complex phenomenon unlike the use of blackboard and chalk in a traditional classroom. Amirian (2003) shows that using technology to facilitate instruction requires changes in instructional plan and the possession of new skills.
Design and Implementation of the Combinational Circuits Testing using Accumulator based BIST to Reduce Delay, Power Consumption and Area

Background: In Current VLSI circuits, e.g., Modules like accumulators, Arithmetic Logic Units (ALUs) are present generally in information line structure or discrete signal Processing chips. ABIST has a basic idea that is used by accumulators for built-in testing and its generated test patterns show the hardware overhead degradation and decreased circuit speed. Method: In the present system this paper use a scheme which holds a generation of test patterns and is compared with previously proposed scheme. The test patterns created by accumulator proves that it takes input produced by a constant pattern holding an acceptable pseudo random individuality, if a proper input pattern is selected. Weighed pseudorandom BIST schemes were utilized to bring down the vector number in BIST applications. Findings: For the generation of test patterns, we use a group which has 0, 1 and 0.5 weights and this group is an impartial group and this use will lower the time needed for testing and also reduces power used. In the above work, digital circuits such as G27 Bench mark and SISO are, accumulator based BIST. Finally, the synthesis results of these circuits are compared with normal BIST. It was found that the circuit as low delay using accumulator based BIST.
Towards computer-assisted word frequency studies in Northern Sotho

Preventing the erroneous omission of essential words, and selecting the ‘correct’ corpus of lexical entries for a specific dictionary are two of the lexicographer's worst nightmares! The aim of this paper is to offer a solution to both these problems by means of a computerized option for word frequency studies in African languages developed at the University of Pretoria (WFS-Project)2. The latest results obtained from an analysis of different types of data corpora exceeding 155 000 words will be interpreted for Northern Sotho and discussed in more detail. These findings enable lexicographers for African languages to commence word frequency studies in any African language without having to rediscover the wheel, and could contribute to the ultimate goal of bringing the compilation of dictionaries and word frequency studies in African languages on a par with internationally appreciated projects such as the British Lancaster-Oslo/Bergen (LOB) Corpus and its American counterpart, the Brown Corpus.
