“Anti-Bayesian” flat and hierarchical clustering using symmetric quantiloids
2017
A myriad of works has been published for achieving data clustering based on the Bayesian paradigm, where the clustering sometimes resorts to Naive-Bayes decisions. Within the domain of clustering, the Bayesian principle corresponds to assigning the unlabelled samples to the cluster whose mean (or centroid) is the closest. Recently, Oommen and his co-authors have proposed a novel, counter-intuitive and pioneering PR scheme that is radically opposed to the Bayesian principle. The rational for this paradigm, referred to as the “Anti-Bayesian” (AB) paradigm, involves classification based on the non-central quantiles of the distributions. The first-reported work to achieve clustering using the A…
Indexing Multimedia Learning Materials in Ultimate Course Search
2016
International audience; Multimedia is the main support for online learning materials and the size of multimedia learning materials is growing with the popularity of online programs offered by Universities. Ultimate Course Search (UCS) is a tool that aims to provide efficient search of course materials. UCS integrates slides, lecture videos and textbook content into a single platform with search capabilities. The keywords extracted from the textbook index and the power-point slides are the basis of the indexing scheme. The slides are indexed on the keywords and the videos are indexed on the slides. The correspondence between the slides and video segments is established using the meta-data pr…
Multi-beam cooperative frequency reuse for coordinated multi-point transmission
2010
Coordinated multi-point (CoMP) joint transmission is considered in the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE)-advanced as a key technique to mitigate inter-cell interference and improve the cell-edge performance. To effectively apply CoMP joint transmission, efficient frequency reuse schemes need to be designed to support resource management cooperation among coordinated cells. However, most of the existing frequency reuse schemes are not suitable for CoMP systems due to not considering multi-point joint transmission scenarios in their frequency reuse rules. In addition, the restrictions of frequency resources in those schemes result in a high blocking probabili…
Toward Self-Supervised Feature Learning for Online Diagnosis of Multiple Faults in Electric Powertrains
2021
This article proposes a novel online fault diagnosis scheme for industrial powertrains without using historical faulty or labeled training data. The proposed method combines a one-class support vector machine (SVM) based anomaly detection and supervised convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithms to online detect multiple faults and fault severities under variable speeds and loads. The one-class SVM algorithm is to derive a score for defining faults or health classes in the first stage, and the resulting health classes are used as the training data for the CNN-based classifier in the second stage. Within this framework, the self-supervised learning of the proposed CNN algorithm allows the…
An Efficient Multi-Show Unlinkable Attribute Based Credential Scheme for a Collaborative E-Health Environment
2017
Modern electronic healthcare (e-health) systems constitute collaborative environments in which patients' private health data are shared across multiple domains. In such environments, patients' privacy can be violated through the linkability of different user access sessions over patient health data. Therefore, enforcing anonymous as well as multi-session unlinkable access for the users in e-health systems is of paramount importance. As a way of achieving this requirement, more emphasis has been given to anonymous attribute credentials, which allows a user to anonymously prove the ownership of a set of attributes to a verifier and thereby gain access to protected resources. Among the existin…
A Study on scale factor in distributed differential evolution.
2011
This paper proposes the employment of multiple scale factor values within distributed differential evolution structures. Four different scale factor schemes are proposed, tested, compared and analyzed. Two schemes simply employ multiple scale factor values and two also include an update logic during the evolution. The four schemes have been integrated for comparison within three recently proposed distributed differential evolution structures and tested on several various test problems. Numerical results show that, on average, the employment of multiple scale factors is beneficial since in most cases it leads to significant improvements in performance with respect to standard distributed alg…
Repozytorium instytucjonalne wobec Zintegrowanego Systemu Informacji o Nauce i Szkolnictwie Wyższym
2017
W artykule przedstawiono doświadczenia Biblioteki Głównej Uniwersytetu Opolskiego w tworzeniu instytucjonalnego repozytorium opartego na wcześniej funkcjonującym systemie ewidencji publikacji. Lokalnie gromadzone dane o publikacjach przekazywane są następnie, na podstawie obowiązujących aktów normatywnych regulujących System Informacji o Nauce, do ministerialnych systemów teleinformatycznych. W tekście omówiono również problemy związane z gromadzeniem i przekazywaniem danych o publikacjach do Modułu Sprawozdawczego Polskiej Bibliografii Naukowej, jednego z modułów Zintegrowanego Systemu Informacji o Nauce i Szkolnictwie Wyższym.
Two Times Four Integrative Levels of Analysis: A Framework
2001
Walsham (2000) urged Information Systems researchers to truly cover all levels of analysis from the individual to the societal in their research agenda. In this paper, we accept his challenge by proposing a research framework offour integrative levels of analysis: individual, group/activity, organizational, and societal. Each level is divided into two viewpoints: intra (single case) and inter (multiple cases, relational, comparative). In addition, the temporal/historical dimension should be applied on all levels and viewpoints. We argue that although all of the levels and viewpoints of the “2 × 4 + history” framework cannot be thoroughly covered in any single study, researchers should alway…
External managerial networking in meta-organizations. Evidence from regional councils in Norway
2019
Municipalities increasingly engage in cooperation with other municipalities to realize economies of scale and scope, to solve ‘wicked problems’ and to manage border crossing challenges. Often, such...
Map of the visibility and search engine positioning of the main Spanish media groups
2020
Este trabajo analiza la visibilidad y posicionamiento en buscadores de los sitios web de los principales grupos de comunicación españoles. Se compara su visibilidad web y su presencia en los resultados de búsqueda de Google a través de programas de análisis SEO y una metodología propia que se ha denominado Índice de Visibilidad Agregada. Se ha realizado un análisis comparativo de los grupos Atresmedia, COPE, Godó, Hearst Magazines, Henneo, Imagina Media Audiovisual, Intereconomía Corporación, Joly, Mediaset España Comunicación, Planeta, Prensa Ibérica, Prisa, Unidad Editorial, Vocento y Zeta. Se ha podido establecer que Unidad Editorial es el grupo con mayor tráfico web proveniente de búsqu…
