On the Inverse Frequent Itemset Mining Problem for Condensed Representations of Itemsets

Inverse frequent itemset mining can be successfully modelled as an instance of the Probabilistic Satisfiability problem. Given a transaction database we can perform a frequent itemset mining algorithm, like the Apriori algorithm, to obtain useful itemset collections such as frequent or closed itemsets. We then use these itemset collections as frequency constraints in order to reconstruct the original database by solving a linear programming problem. There are cases however, where the reconstructed database is not in direct agreement with the original one. In this study, we analyse the degree of similarity between the original database and the reconstructed one, when different variations of condensed itemset representations are used as the initial frequency constraints. We examine how much the initial database properties and itemset relations have been preserved when we emphasize on the frequent itemset border and assess database quality by measuring database distance metrics. As this solution framework presents increased computational cost, we also consider a heuristic approach that is based on the notion that a transaction can be also considered as an itemset and compare the strengths and weaknesses of each framework when the same conditions apply. We manage to improve the efficiency of existing heuristic based approaches to the problem by utilizing smaller initial itemset collections. Our work contributes in (a) privacy preserving data mining and (b) gain in transaction database storage memory savings.
Investigation of microwave transducers for linearity dependence and applications in quantum networking

Quantum devices have the potential to revolutionize applications in computing, communications, and sensing; however, current state-of-art resources must operate at extremely low temperatures, making the routing of microwave control and readout signals challenging to scale. Interest in microwave photonic solutions to this problem has grown in recent years, in which control signals are delivered to the cold stage via optical fiber, where they are converted to electrical signals through photodetection. Overall link performance depends strongly on the characteristics of the photodiode, yet detailed measurements of many detector properties remain lacking at cold temperatures. In this work, we examine and compare the performance of a modified uni-traveling carrier photodiode (MUTC-PD) at both room (300 K) and liquid nitrogen (80 K) temperatures, focusing in particular on responsivity, bandwidth, and linearity. In line with previous work, we find a sharp reduction in responsivity at 1550 nm as temperature decreases, while RF bandwidth remains steady. Interestingly, our linearity tests reveal that the RF output saturates more quickly at 80 K, suggesting reduced linearity with lower temperature, the cause of which is still under investigation. Our results should help contribute to the understanding and future design of highly linear cryogenic quantum links.

Implementation of Load Balancing of Matrix Problem with the Row Sum Method

Cloud computing is turning into one of the most emerging technologies based on the internet. In the simplest terms, cloud computing means storing and gaining access to data and application over the internet as an alternative to your computer’s hard drive. Cloud computing is the delivery of on-demand computing services from applications to storage and deals with power typically over the internet and on a pay-as-you-go basis. There is a wide range of network servers joined to online computing to provide different types of online services to cloud clients. There are some fewer figures of network servers having joined the cloud networks that have to perform greater tasks at a limited time. So, it is certainly easy to accomplish the entire works at a specific time. Few systems complete each task, so there is a demand for balancing workloads at a limited time. Here Load balancing reduces the time limit of each task in an exacting process. There are invariably no chances to continue an equal quantity of network servers to accomplish the same quantity of jobs in the same period. All tasks to be performed would be higher than the connection to the servers. There are inadequate servers that have to hand over a million jobs in an instant. We will propose an algorithm that insufficient nodes perform the jobs here; some jobs are much more than the nodes and balance each node to improve the quality of services in cloud computing.

Information and communication technologies in the context of modern development of society

Introduction. Constant use of technical devices in everyday life increases the risks of occurrence and realization of communication strategies of behavior that have a negative impact on human relations with the outside world, and it affects the ability to perceive information, the formation of interpersonal communication skills, and the ability of conflict-free interaction in offline format. The author shows that despite the fact that the latest communication technologies on the one hand provide comfortable living conditions, on the other hand, they cause a number of problems. Theoretical analysis. The article deals with the theoretical reflection of the peculiarities of social development under the conditions of intensively developing information and communication technologies. The author analyzes techno-social transformations (in communication and leisure activities) and reveals the essential problems of social changes. Conclusion. The conducted theoretical analysis allows us to conclude that innovative technologies have not rid mankind of destitution and poverty, have not made people happy, have not reduced the number of risky situations, have not protected from existential threats. Meanwhile, the development of technology is an inevitable and important component of the genesis of society. To overcome the negative effect of development it is necessary to work out fundamental philosophical, organizational and practical foundations for the development of modern society, since high technology involves an analogous level of training and spiritual maturity of a modern man.

There are two factors that affect reading difficulties, internal factors and external factors. Internal factors can be seen from the physical students. Physical weakness can affect reading difficulties. External factors of students that can affect reading difficulties are factors from the social environment and the most influential is the role of parents who accompany children to read at home. Parents who do not participate in the development of students' reading will hinder students' reading skills.
A comprehensive study for the airborne gamma-rays spectrometry results of Gabal El-Hassnawia, Central Eastern Desert, Egypt

The present study utilizes the airborne gamma-ray spectrometric data of Gabal El-Hassnawia and its vicinity in an attempt to refine the surface geological mapping and recognize the radioelements occurrences. The statistically analysed surface lineaments derived from the Landsat image proved that they are oriented to the NW, NNW, N–S, and ENE trends. Qualitatively, the highest radiometric levels are related to the younger granites, the intermediate levels are observed over the Hammamat sediments and the acidic metavolcanics while the low levels are coinciding with the metasediments, ultramafites and basic to intermediate metavolcanics. The composite images show a good close correlation with the geologically mapped rock units. The factor analysis proved that the radiometric variables uranium (eU), potassium (K) and thorium (eTh) as well as total count (TC) are highly correlated positively with each other. Three principal factors F1, F2 and F3 are extracted from the data and their scores were used in differentiating the rock types according to their radiometric levels; consequently, nine interpreted litho-radiometric units were identified. Three types of younger granites and two types of Hammamat sediments could be distinguished among the nine units. These units are subjected to statistical treatment with the goal of identifying the uranium occurrences that exceeds X + 2S and X + 3S as targets of exploration. Accordingly, it is found that the uranium province zones are related to the three types of granite (G1, G2 and G3), the second type of Hammamat sediment (H2) and more or less the acidic metavolcanics. The uranium migration indicated that the second type of Hammamat sediment (H-2) is the only unit that the uranium is migrated in whereas; the uranium is migrated out in all other units.
