SELF ORGANIZING MAPS APPLICATIONS AND NOVEL ALGORITHM DESIGN PART 4 PPT

In the research area of computer science, a method called self-organizing map (SOM) has been developed and utilized (Kohonen (2001)). SOM is one of the neural network systems, which models the column structure of visual cortex (V1) in animal brains (Van Hulle (2000)) and learns based on an unsupervised machine learning algorithm. SOMs have been applied to problems in many ﬁelds such as data visualization, dimensional reduction, clustering, etc. In this chapter, we focus on the multi-media content broadcasted on the Internet with the streaming technique. To serve most users by utilizing the bandwidth of the Internet, it is ideal to broadcast only important portions of the content that viewers really want to watch. If this is realized, viewers can avoid wasting their time by watching the portions that they do not desire to watch. Moreover, by not broadcasting less important portions unnecessary network trafﬁc is decreased.

MULTIMEDIA – A MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH TO COMPLEX ISSUES PPT

1. Introduction With the rapid growth of multimedia application technologies and network technologies, especially the proliferation of Web 2.0 and digital cameras, there has been an explosion of images and videos in the Internet. For example, the volume of videos uploaded to the YouTube every minute is amounting to 48 hours by May 2011, having doubled in the last two years. Such huge video collections hold useful yet implicit and nontrivial knowledge about various domains. To manage and utilize these resources effectively, video concept detection becomes a very important subject of intensive research by a large research community (Over et al., 2008). It is an integral part of visual data mining that is automatically extracting such knowledge from the huge unstructured visual data. It aims to automatically annotate video shots or keyframes with respect to a semantic concept (Tang et al., 2012). Ranging from objects like airplane and car to scenes like urban street and sky , semantic concepts serve as good intermediate semantic features for video content indexing and understanding, and thus, spurring much research attention (Jiang et al., 2010; Naphade & Smith, 2004; Snoek et al., 2006; Zheng et al., 2008). Essentially, concept detection is a classiﬁcation task, in which a binary classiﬁer is usually learned to predict the presence of a certain concept in a video shot or keyframe (image). Traditional concept detection methods are mainly global classiﬁcation: use supervised machine learning techniques, such as single Support Vector Machine (SVM), etc., over whole training dataset.

disease involving the descending aorta replaced through a left thoracotomy have been excluded from this study. In 2008 and 2009 the modified arch-first technique was used by our institution by two surgeons for 38 con- secutive cases, comprising 20 males and 18 females with an average age of 71 years (range: 42 - 93 years). There were 12 true aneurysms, 6 ruptured aortic aneurysms, 5 acute and 8 chronic type B aortic dissections and 7 acute type A aortic dissections, all with distal arch aortic disease. Eighteen cases underwent emergency surgery. Concomitant procedures consisted of aorto-coronary bypass grafting, Bentall operation, aortic valve replace- ment and aorto-femoral bypass grafting. There were 10 cases of repeat surgery, with the previous surgery con- sisting of three ascending aortic replacements, one aortic valve procedure, one coronary artery bypass and five cases of abdominal aortic repair. In all cases, the arch vessels were reconstructed with a commercially available four-branched graft (Hemashield; Boston Scientific, Natick, MA).

efficiency. Moreover, evaporation rates differ depending on paper grade and production volume. A hood balance should be carried out for the production volume requiring the highest evaporation rates in the dryers. Depending upon the type of hood present in an existing paper machine dryer section, the optimal amounts of total ‘supply’ and exhaust air required per unit mass of water evaporated will vary. The required hood balance (defined as the ratio of total ‘supply’ to total exhaust air) is largely influenced by the hood type i.e., whether the hood is an open, conventional closed or high-humidity closed hood. The hood balance for a modern paper machine with a closed hood should be close to 0.8, while that for an older machine with open hood should be between 0.3 and 0.4. If the hood balance is too high then this results in spillage from the hood into the machine room. A low balance results in sweating, runnability problems and poor profile in the cross direction (CD). Conditions around the machine may become uncomfortable and troubleshooting, broke cleaning and operations may become difficult. In many machines, an actual hood balance is rarely carried out. The importance of air balance is often ignored potentially losing opportunity to improve drying efficiency (Sundqvist, 1996; Ghosh, 2005).

MULTIPROCESSOR SCHEDULING PART 5 PPT

8. Summary and Conclusions In this study we combine two metaheuristic search techniques, the Augmented Neural Networks and Genetic Algorithms approach to create a hybrid metaheuristic called the NeuroGenetic approach. We apply this hybrid approach to a multiprocessor scheduling problem, the job-shop scheduling problem to test if the hybridization helps improve the solution. The hybridization of AugNN and GA is achieved by interleaving the two approaches. Since the GA approach is better at diversification or global search whereas AugNN is better at intensification or local search, the combination provides improved solutions than either GA or AugNN search with the same number of iterations. Computational results showed that such hybridization provided improvements in the solutions, than if each technique was used alone. Given the encouraging results, more research needs to be done in this area. Such hybrid techniques can be applied to other scheduling problems and also on the job shop scheduling problem by applying other GA approaches that have performed well in the literature. The AugNN technique can also be hybridized with other non GA techniques such Tabu Search and Simulated Annealing approaches, which tend to give good results for the job-shop scheduling problem.

TÀI LIỆU INCIDENT HANDLING FOUNDATIONS PPT

• Determine cause and symptom • Improve defenses • Perform vulnerability analysis Before the system goes back online, an incident handler must make sure that they fix the problem or the vulnerability that the attacker used to compromise the system. Nuking the operating system from high orbit may be considered a shortcut in the handling process. While it is certainly true that total destruction of the contents of the disk will take care of any malevolent code, the opportunity for re-infection via the same channel after you reload the operating system still exists. There are tons of cases where handlers have taken systems down, reloaded the operating system, only to have the box compromised again a couple days later. The best course of action is to determine what the cause of the incident was, to find the vector of infection, and take action to prevent this from happening again.

INTRODUCTION TO OPC

At the top of this figure is an OPC Server object . This is the COM object to which the application first connects. Below this is a collection of OPC Group Objects. These are created dynamically by the applications to hold lists of Tags and attributes (which OPC refers to as Items). An HMI might create a Group for each open picture. A report package might create a group to access data for each report. The contents of the Group and item collections may vary over time based on the needs of the applications. (Again this has no effect on the underlying control system). This is actually somewhat analogous to RowSets as used on OLEDB. There is a lot of data in the database, you want to look at a subset of it in your application., and that subset may vary based on your needs at the time.

INVESTMENTS REQUIRING CONSOLIDATION CONCEPT OF CONTROL: You only need to casually review the pages of most any business press before you will notice a story about one business buying another. Such acquisitions are common and number in the thousands annually. Typically, such transactions are effected rather simply, by the acquirer simply buying a majority of the stock of the target company. This majority position enables the purchaser to exercise control over the other company; electing a majority of the board of directors, which in turn sets the direction for the company. Control is ordinarily established once ownership jumps over the 50% mark, but management contracts and other similar arrangements may allow control to occur at other levels.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS ENHANCEMENT PART 6 PPTX

3. Cooperative Game Theoretic Model of Clustering Algorithms for Wireless Sen- sor Networks 3.1 Game and solution Game theory is a mathematical basis for capturing behavior in interactive decision situation. It provides a framework and analytical approach for predicting the results of complex and dynamic interactions between rational agents who try to maximize personal payoff (or min- imize private cost) according to strategies of other agents. The theory is generally divided into the non-cooperative game theory and the cooperative game theory. In non-cooperative games, the agents have distinct interests that interact by predefined mechanisms and deviate alone from a proposed solution, if it is in their interest, and do not themselves coordinate their moves in groups. In other words, for individually rational behaviors, they cannot reach an agreement or negotiate for cooperation. Contrarily, a cooperative game allows agents to com- municate for allocating resources before making decisions by an unspecified mechanism. It is concerned with coalitions which are composed of group of agents for coordinating actions and feasible allocations. Cooperative game theory is concerned with situations when groups of agents coordinate their actions. Consequently, Cooperative games focus how to assign the total benefits (or cost) among coalitions, taking into account individual and group incentives, as well as various fairness properties (Nisan et al., 2007).

We show that the improved possibilities for interference suppression in case of real-valued symbols more than com- pensate for the loss in power eﬃciency and even signifi- cant gains are possible in an interference limited environ- ment with respect to a conventional OFDM scheme em- ploying coded QAM modulation with the same spectral e ﬃ - ciency. Performance of a QAM scheme in principle could be enhanced by successive interference cancellation (SIC) [18]. However, due to the presence of multiple interferers in prac- tical applications, SIC alone could not achieve an acceptable performance and hence, it would have to be combined with successive decoding [18]. Unfortunately, because desired sig- nal and interferers are usually not frame aligned and the code laws of the interferers are not known in general, successive decoding is not applicable here.

HARNESSING THE POWER OF CONTINUOUS AUDITING_1 DOCX

THE REAL DEFINITION One of the significant challenges facing internal audit, control specialists, enterprise risk management teams, and business managers all over the world is being able to understand what continuous auditing is and how the approach can be used effectively. As you read through this book, keep in mind that continuous auditing has been around for decades. As I travel and speak around the world on this topic, I have found each individual team, department, or company has its own definition of what it believes the approach represents and how to maximize its value. So let us start off this educational process by establishing a clear-cut definition of continuous auditing and understanding the characteristics that make it a unique tool. The definition will be broken down into two distinct parts: (1) the formal ‘‘book’’ definition for personnel familiar with the audit profession and (2) the ‘‘nonaudit’’ definition for clients to clearly understand the objective of the approach.

Numerical solution of the problems for plates on some complex partial internal supports

The method is developed for plates on internal supports of more complex configurations. Namely, we examine the cases of symmetric rectangular and H-shape supports, where the computational domain after reducing to the first quadrant of the plate is divided into three subdomains. Also, we consider the case of asymmetric rectangular support where the computational domain needs to be divided into 9 subdomains. The problems under consideration are reduced to sequences of weak mixed boundary value problems for the Poisson equation, which are solved by difference method. The performed numerical experiments show the effectiveness of the iterative method.

Example 7-1: The Use of Eq. (7-2) Figure 7-2 is an example of the use of Eq. (7-2). The x ( n ) input signal voltage waveform in part (a) is a complex time sequence of cosine and sine waves. This Þ gure uses steps of 0.1 in the ( n ) values for better visual resolution, and this is the only place where x ( n ) is plotted. The two plots in part (a) are I ( n ) (real) and Q ( n ) (imaginary) sequences that we have looked at previously. Parts (b) and (c) are the DFT of part (a) that show the two-sided phasor frequency X ( k ) voltage values. The DFT uses ( k ) steps of 1.0 to avoid spectral leakage between ( k ) integers (Chapter 3). If a dc voltage is present, it shows up at k = 0 (see Fig. 1-2). In this example there is no dc, but it will be considered later. The integer values are suf Þ cient for a correct evaluation if there are enough of them to satisfy the requirements for adequate sampling.

Of course, it helps to know the formula or method needed to solve a problem. But there are always those problems on the test that you don’t recognize or can’t remember how to do, and this may cause you a little anxiety. Even experienced math teachers experience that paralyzing feeling at times. But you shouldn’t allow anxiety to conquer you. Nor should you jump into a problem and start figuring madly without a careful reading and analysis of the problem.
