Modeling musical attributes to characterize ensemble recordings using rhythmic audio features
2011
In this paper, we present the results of a pre-study on music performance analysis of ensemble music. Our aim is to implement a music classification system for the description of live recordings, for instance to help musicologist and musicians to analyze improvised ensemble performances. The main problem we deal with is the extraction of a suitable set of audio features from the recorded instrument tracks. Our approach is to extract rhythm-related audio features and to apply them for regression-based modeling of eight more general musical attributes. The model based on Partial Least-Squares Regression without preceding Principal Component Analysis performed best for all of the eight attribu…
A High Level Language for Pyramidal Architectures
1986
In the paper are described the syntax and some implementation features of a high level language for pyramidal architectures called Pyramid B Language (PCL). The language is an extension of the B and include data type, set of instructions and builtin functions oriented to the pyramidal architectures. Some notes on the implementation for the PAPIA machine are also given.
A multiple layered functional data model to support multiple representations and interoperability of GIS
2001
This paper presents a multi-layered functional data model to support multiple representation and information sharing among distributed spatial information systems. The key idea is that a geographical space (foe example an urban space) can be viewed as a set of abstract spatial functionalities on which different application classes can be derived to manipulate objects of the same geographical space and share the same abstract generic functionalities. The object classes define multiple views or representations of a domain. For example in urban management, transportation systems, water supply and sewage systems applications can share generic network functionalities defined by graph treversal o…
A Logical Explication of the Concepts of Incomplete and Uncertain Information
1994
Discovery of elementary knowledge and its constituents, i.e. information contained in objects of reality is realized through asking questions including certain aspects called attributes in this paper. We describe a fragment of a discovered reality as an information system (cf. Pawlak [1,3,4]), which consists of the universum U of all the objects of this reality we are concerned with, and of a set A of attributes understood as functions each of which assigns to every object of U 1) a value of given attribute belonging to A or 2) an interval of approximate values of this attribute, i.e. an established set of possible values of this attribute. From the point of view of the cognitive agent and …
Construction and Implementation of LR(1) Parsers
1990
This chapter is devoted to the practical issues involved in the construction and use of deterministic LR(1) parsers. We shall show how the practical versions of LR (1) parsers, most notably the LALR (1) parsers, can be constructed efficiently, and we shall present methods for encoding LR(1) parsers as efficient RAM programs. Two versions of RAM program implementation are considered: in the first implementation the parsing program is table-driven, that is, the rules of the parser are encoded in a two-dimensional array which is simulated by a program body; in the other implementation the tabular information is further transformed into a set of program statements.
Semantic traffic applications based on DatexII
2009
In this work we demonstrate a particular use of ontologies based on the European specifications DATEXII. These specifications are designed and developed as a traffic and travel data exchange mechanism by a European task force to set up and standardise the interface between traffic control and information centres. It is the reference for applications that are developed and implemented in Europe.This language describes concepts and structures of data related to traffic, but the description is just syntactic, not semantic. Therefore the objective to be reached in this part of the research has been to develop a semantic description in order to carry out some applications like syndication and a …
Deriving and comparing deduplication techniques using a model-based classification
2015
Data deduplication has been a hot research topic and a large number of systems have been developed. These systems are usually seen as an inherently linked set of characteristics. However, a detailed analysis shows independent concepts that can be used in other systems. In this work, we perform this analysis on the main representatives of deduplication systems. We embed the results in a model, which shows two yet unexplored combinations of characteristics. In addition, the model enables a comprehensive evaluation of the representatives and the two new systems. We perform this evaluation based on real world data sets.
Mobile agents, globus and resource discovery
2004
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses grid technology and some related problem. The overview of grids, in terms of application fields and needed protocols is given. The common feature of all grid architectures is a coordinated and controlled resource sharing between the members of a dynamic multi-institutional virtual community. The members of such a community agree on which resources will be shared and which members of the community will be enabled to access these resources, thus defining a set of sharing rules and permissions. The Globus project is discussed, which is nowadays the de facto standard for grid environments, with emphasis on its resource discovery components. Finally, the …
Detection of Anomalous HTTP Requests Based on Advanced N-gram Model and Clustering Techniques
2013
Nowadays HTTP servers and applications are some of the most popular targets for network attacks. In this research, we consider an algorithm for HTTP intrusions detection based on simple clustering algorithms and advanced processing of HTTP requests which allows the analysis of all queries at once and does not separate them by resource. The method proposed allows detection of HTTP intrusions in case of continuously updated web-applications and does not require a set of HTTP requests free of attacks to build the normal user behaviour model. The algorithm is tested using logs acquired from a large real-life web service and, as a result, all attacks from these logs are detected, while the numbe…
Maximizing water use efficiency in designing microirrigation unit (IrriLab Software)
2016
As the year 2050 approaches, the world population will reach 9 billion - so does the challenge of doubling crop yields. To meet this crop yields demand, the associated dramatic improving of water productivity (WP) must necessarily be accompanied by maximization of water use efficiency (WUE) (Ragab 2011, UNEP 2014). In this work, a recently developed software (IrriLab, https://www.facebook.com/irrilab) moving in this direction is presented. IrriLab is a very simple toll allows to design microirrigation unit optimizing WUE, pressure energy and irrigation unit costs. Irrigation software available in commerce provide microirrigation system designs, by mainly looking at the maximum flow rate uni…
