Cross-boundary and cross-discipline creation of scientific knowledge. The case of economic anthropology/ business ethnography
2018
Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie teoretycznych i metodologicznych aspektów etnografii biznesu, zwanej również antropologią gospodarki, jako interdyscyplinarnych subdyscyplin socjologii i nauk o zarządzaniu. W praktyce oznacza to, że przedstawiane subdyscypliny stanowią część socjologii, antropologii społeczno-kulturowej i nauk o zarządzaniu. Ponadto, artykuł ukazuje na przykładzie roli etnografa jako przedsiębiorcy połączenie nauki z praktyką biznesową. W związku z tym, w artykule zaproponowano nowy model przedsiębiorczości opartej również na praktyce badawczej wykorzystującej badania etnograficzne. Tym samym proponuje się badania etnograficzne jako najbardziej skuteczne w badaniach organ…
Learning-based multiresolution transforms with application to image compression
2013
In Harten's framework, multiresolution transforms are defined by predicting finer resolution levels of information from coarser ones using an operator, called prediction operator, and defining details (or wavelet coefficients) that are the difference between the exact and predicted values. In this paper we use tools of statistical learning in order to design a more accurate prediction operator in this framework based on a training sample, resulting in multiresolution decompositions with enhanced sparsity. In the case of images, we incorporate edge detection techniques in the design of the prediction operator in order to avoid Gibbs phenomenon. Numerical tests are presented showing that the …
Knowledge Brokering in an Era of Communication Visibility
2020
This study presents an analysis of the extent to which enterprise social media (ESM) use enhances visibility of content (message transparency) and connections (network translucence) in organizations, and how this affects knowledge brokering. The findings support the theory of communication visibility by demonstrating that ESM use is associated with perceptions of message transparency and network translucence. Furthermore, the findings suggest that employees, regardless of their position within a network, are provided with a vision advantage and thus have the ability to engage in knowledge brokering. Future work needs to examine the impact of network characteristics on these effects. This a…
Domain knowledge integration and semantical quality management -A biology case study
2008
International audience; The management of semantical quality is a major challenge in the context of knowledge integration. In this paper, we describe a new approach to constraint management that emphasizes constraint traceability when moving from the semantical level to the operational one.Our strategy for management of semantical quality is related to a metamo-deling-based approach to knowledge integration. We carry out knowledge integration “on the fly” by using transformations applied to models belonging to our metamodeling architecture. The resulting integrated models access available resources through web services whose input and output parameters are guarded by constraints. Integrated…
Integration of cloud computing tools and knowledge bodies for the management of programming projects
2018
A Body of Knowledge (BOK) is a set of concepts and skills that represent the knowledge of a specific area of engineering or scientific discipline and ensure their common understanding [1]. A BOK can include technical terms and theoretical concepts as well as best practices [2] so in this document we will focus on the context of software engineering specifically in Software Project Management. In addition, Cloud Computing will is becoming the best way to deliver solutions that meet the current need for greater collaboration between companies, education and society. In this context, the learning of Software Project Management is important during the professional life of Informatica since it e…
Cognitive intelligent sensory system for vision-based quality control
2003
This paper presents an original approach for a vision-based quality control system, built around a cognitive intelligent sensory system. The principle of the approach relies on two steps. First, a so-called initialization phase leads to structural knowledge on image acquisition conditions, type of illumination sources, etc. Second, the image is iteratively evaluated using this knowledge and complementary information (e.g., CAD models, and tolerance information). Finally, the information describing the quality of the piece under evaluation is extracted. A further aim of the approach is to enable building strategies that determine for instance the “next best view” required for completing the …
High Level Modeling and Hardware Implementation of Image Processing Algorithms Using XSG
2019
International audience; Design of Systems-on-Chip has become very common especially with the remarkable advances in the field of high-level system modeling. In recent years, Matlab also offers a Simulink interface for the design of hardware systems. From a high-level specification, Matlab provides self-generation of HDL codes and/or FPGA configuration codes while providing other benefits of easy simulation. In addition, a large part of the Systems-on-Chip use at least one image processing algorithm and at the same time border detection is one of the most used algorithms. This paper presents a study and a hardware implementation of various algorithms of borders detection realized under Xilin…
An Introduction to Ontology Based Structured Knowledge Base System: Knowledge Acquisition Module
2013
The following text presents the method of supplementing and verifying information stored in a framework system of the semantic knowledge base. The indicated method refers to the knowledge of ontological character, in other words to information about definitions of concepts and relationships among them. The aim of the method is the constant supplementing and verifying of the knowledge, and making more precise and detailed information about existing connections between concepts. The key aspect of the method is questions generating strictly dependent on the preconceived structure of stored knowledge.
Randomized Hough Transform for Ellipse Detection with Result Clustering
2005
Our research is focused on the development of robust machine vision algorithms for pattern recognition. We want to provide robotic systems the ability to understand more on the external real world. In this paper, we describe a method for detecting ellipses in real world images using the randomized Hough transform with result clustering. A preprocessing phase is used in which real world images are transformed - noise reduction, greyscale transform, edge detection and final binarization - in order to be processed by the actual ellipse detector. The ellipse detector filters out false ellipses that may interfere with the final results. Due to the fact that usually more "virtual" ellipses are de…
Conceptual Ontological Object Knowledge Base and Language
2008
This paper deals with AI in aspect of knowledge acquisition and ontology base structure. The core of the system was designed in an object model to optimize it for further processing. Direct concept linking was used to assure fast semantic network processing. Predefined attributes used in the core minimize the number of basic connections within the ontology and help in inference. The system is assumed to generate questions and to specify the knowledge. The AI system defined in this way opens a possibility for better understanding of such basic human mind mechanisms as learning or analyzing.
