DBM Optimization with Additional Category Information

Abstract For unconstrained training of restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM), it is easy to appear that feature homogenization leads to poor generalization ability. This paper introduces category conditions into DBM training, proposes label conditional RBM which is used in the construction of DBM. According to unsupervised training characteristics of RBM, this paper adds the category information as the model hidden unit training condition to the implicit unit posterior activation probability calculation. This paper applies the model as the underlying structure of the deep Boltzmann machine (DBM) to the deep network construction. Through handwritten digit recognition set test, compared with the shallow model, the new model after adding the category condition has a great improvement in the model training speed and feature extraction effectiveness, and can effectively enhance the feature learning ability of the deep model.

Dynamic Analysis of a Three-dimensional Non-linear Continuous System

Most physical phenomena are modeled as continuous or discrete dynamic systems of a second dimension or more, but because of the multiplicity of bifurcation parameters and the large dimension, researchers have big problems for the study of this type of systems.For this reason, this article proposes a new method that facilitates the qualitative study of continuous dynamic systems of three dimensions in general and chaotic systems in particular, which contains many parameters of bifurcations.This method is based on projection on the plane and on an appropriate bifurcation parameter.
A Distribution-Free Bayesian Approach for Indirect Comparisons

The objective of this paper is to consider an indirect comparison between treatments B and C when each have been compared directly to treatment A in separate studies.Problems of this type are common in Network Meta-Analysis (NMA).A commonly used method assumes that the underlying data, Y, are normally distributed and µ = E(Y) is the measure of clinical effectiveness.The normal assumption is often violated.In addition, the sample sizes are not necessarily large.These conditions challenge the concept that a single location parameter, such as, the mean or median should be used as the measure of clinical effectiveness in the analysis.In this paper, we present an alternative approach where the Area Under the ROC Curve (AUC) is used as the measure of clinical effectiveness.Since the normal distribution may be uncertain, we use a distributionfree Bayesian mixtures of Finite Polya Trees (MFPT) model with the AUC in order to make the indirect comparison.
PORTABLE TEXT TO SPEECH DEVICE FOR VISUALLY IMPAIRED USING RASPBERRY PI AND WEBCAM

Communication plays a major role in human life. Vision has one of the utmost importance in making the communication complete. A person needs vision to access information from a text or image. Visually impaired people gather information from voice only. In many situations, information access for those people is very difficult due to their disability. The proposed paper here implements an idea for image conversion to speech with the help of Raspberry Pi, a Web cam and a speaker or an earphone. The proposed idea uses the concept of Tesseract OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to produce speech from image captured by the camera. This helps the visually impaired people to access the information of text in printed materials i.e. books as well as hand-written notes. The implemented prototype will be a portable device since a power bank is used for its battery backup and gives speech output in multiple languages with the help of Speech API and Microsoft translator. This idea can help millions of visually impaired people to get vision experience and helps them a lot for reading, shopping, indoor and outdoor navigation.

Towards solving neural networks with optimization trajectory search

Modern gradient based optimization methods for deep neural networks demonstrate outstanding results on image classification tasks. However, methods that do not rely on gradient feedback fail to tackle deep network optimization. In the held of evolutionary computation, applying evolutionary algorithms directly to network weights remains to be an unresolved challenge. In this paper we examine a new framework for the evolution of deep nets. Based on the empirical analysis, we propose the use of linear sub-spaces of problems to search for promising optimization trajectories in parameter space, opposed to weight evolution. We show that linear sub-spaces of loss functions are sufficiently well-behaved to allow trajectory evaluation. Furthermore, we introduce fitness measure to show that it is possible to correctly categorize trajectories according to their distance from the optimal path. As such, this work introduces an alternative approach to evolutionary optimization of deep networks.

A New Method to Determine the Annual Energy Output of Liquid-Based Solar Collectors

This article presents a new way of determining the annual energy output of solar thermal collectors. The proposed method, in the first stage, assumes the creation of a database that contains energy gains QSC from the solar collectors, the average annual solar irradiance intensity IS, and the average temperature of the outside air θO. It can be made on the basis of detailed computer simulations. In the current case, EnergyPlus software was used to create this database. Next, mathematical relations for flat plate and evacuated tube collectors were developed using the linear regression analysis (multiple regression method). Based on these equations, one can calculate the value of QSC as a function of IS and O. In addition, two graphs for the estimation of the annual energy gains for the entire area of Poland and for the conditions of a typical meteorological year were prepared.

SCATTER: Fully Automated Classification System across Multiple Databases

Data mining approaches performed recently use data coming from a single table and are not adapted to multiple tables.Moreover, computer network expansion and data sources diversity require new data mining systems handling databases heterogeneity in multi-database systems.In this paper, we propose SCATTER: a fully automated classification system from multiple heterogeneous databases.SCATTER is composed of three components.The first component uses schema matching techniques to find foreign-key links across the multi-database system.The second component tries to find the most useful links that are critical for producing accurate classes across multiple databases.The last component is a decision tree classification algorithm which exploits the useful links discovered automatically across the databases.Experiments performed on real databases were very satisfactory with an average accuracy of 86.5% and showed that SCATTER system succeeded in achieving a fully automated classification from multiple heterogeneous databases.
Éveil aux langues per alunni della scuola primaria: il progetto Musiche dal mondo del CLA-UniTO

This paper aims to present a language awareness project for primary school pupils, namely the Musiche dal mondo: guida all’ascolto delle lingue workshop. The project was carried out by the University Language Centre of Turin University (CLA-UniTO) as part of the larger project Bambine e bambini: un giorno all’Università promoted by the municipality of Turin. After providing a description of the activity performed, we will discuss its positive outcomes for educating pupils in and through plurilinguism and cultural diversity. The workshop will ultimately prove to be an opportunity for both teachers and pupils to appreciate and highlight the linguistic richness of their class, while satisfying their appetite for foreign languages. This project can therefore be considered as a good example of collaboration between the Language Centre and its local community, thus enhancing Turin University’s engagement in Third Mission activities.
A Corpus-Based Study on Editorials

The corpus of the study are English editorials with the theme Extra Judicial Killing.They were examined of their macrostructures or moves with reference to Hoey's four moves Problem-Solution model or McCarthy's three moves Claim-Counterclaim Model; and of their microstructures, the downtoner and subcategory according to Biber's.Intuitive and semantic analyses were done including the functions of the downtoner either intersententially or intrasententially.Results revealed there are editorials which moves are consistent to either Hoey's or McCarthy's, or both.Also, there are editorials which neither belong to either model, labeled as 'other.'Caesura(s) seemed inevitable making the writer not to hedge or downtone.This researcher proposes a label for caesurae, the relevant or 'R' move.An Intuitive Model is also proposed for the entire text.As to the downtoners, careful analysis is needed to unmask downtoner adverb occurring as adverb per se but functions either a conjunction or an adjective.
