Lifestyle management is a growing area aimed at giving individuals support for an increased self-awareness; self-monitoring technologies are essential in providing an objective account of our daily events. However, most self-monitoring technological solutions largely focus on physical health and ignore other aspects. Our goal is to utilise context aware technologies in order to support people in understanding how various aspects of their lives influence their wellbeing, including, for example, mental and social health. For that, we need to gain a deeper insight into the challenges of designing such solutions, from sensing to interaction paradigms. The paper describes the design and implementation of our system, including novel story-based information presentation concepts. We conclude with preliminary results from our exploratory user-based experiments.
生活方式管理是一个不断发展的领域,旨在为个人提供增强自我意识的支持;自我监控技术对于提供我们日常事件的客观描述至关重要。然而,大多数自我监测技术解决方案主要关注身体健康,而忽略了其他方面。我们的目标是利用情境感知技术,以帮助人们了解他们生活的各个方面如何影响他们的健康,包括心理和社会健康。为此,我们需要更深入地了解设计此类解决方案的挑战,从感知到交互范例。本文描述了系统的设计和实现,包括基于故事的信息表示概念。我们以基于用户的探索性实验的初步结果作为结论。

Predicting the occurrence of emerging global threats through Open Social Networks has become a paramount task for national security agencies. We study a set of four foraging strategies to provide an automated searching across the Facebook social network. Our work shows how movement patterns generated by random walks can be developed and applied as novel choices for facing a complex environment, e.g. the Facebook social graph. We develop four algorithms based on optimal foraging theory for crawling the social network and gathering publicly accessible data. We also use our random walks with the aim of sampling and collecting open information through millions of Facebook messages. Finally, this approach allows us to glean insights into the collective moods of regions or groups abroad.

This study developed a new muscle fatigue feature based on sEMG signals. The evolved feature is combining 11 traditional muscle fatigue sEMG parameters to optimally classify the sEMG signals. The myoelectric signals were recorded from 13 subjects performing biceps brachii contractions until fatigue. By utilizing the 11 features and a combination of randomly selected mathematical operators a Genetic Algorithm (GA)evolved a novel composite feature. Davies Bouldin Index (DBI) was used by the GA during the seeding and evolution process in its fitness function to measure the separation of the combined feature. Classification results show an average of 75.4% correct classification and a significant improvement (P <; 0.01) of 11.94% when compared with the averages of eight standard sEMG features that are used in current muscle fatigue studies.

Identifying named entities on a University intranet 识别大学内部网上的命名实体
Pub Date : 2012-12-06 DOI: 10.1109/CEEC.2012.6375385

Named entities (NEs) are textual references via proper names, such aspeople names, company names, places and so on. The importance of NEs has been observed in intranet search engines, including university web sites. In this paper, a mechanism is built exclusively to recognize the three named entities, which are constantly referenced in the University of Essex domain: names, course codes, and room numbers. While a person name is considered a common named entity, course codes and room numbers are specific to the University domain. We developed a technique specifically to train three different classifiers on electronic corpora, consisting of 16,629 examples in total, which were collected and annotated manually from the University domain. The resulting models were then incorporated into the NER system that was built to use pre-trained classifiers in the detection process, mark these NEs, and cross-reference them to the related documents. The proposed method performed well on a test corpus, with the average precision reaching nearly 0.97. The recall varied, but was lower overall than precision with an average of 0.82. Moreover, in terms of name recognition in the University domain, our system outperformed two other systems: the OpenNLP name finder and ANNIE system.
命名实体(NEs)是通过专有名称(如人名、公司名称、地点等)进行的文本引用。网元的重要性已在包括大学网站在内的内部网搜索引擎中观察到。在本文中,专门建立了一种机制来识别在埃塞克斯大学域中不断引用的三个命名实体:名称、课程代码和房间号码。虽然人名被认为是一个通用的命名实体,但课程代码和房间号码是特定于大学域的。我们开发了一种专门用于在电子语料库上训练三种不同分类器的技术,该语料库共包含16,629个示例,这些示例是从大学领域手动收集和注释的。然后将得到的模型合并到NER系统中,该系统在检测过程中使用预训练的分类器,标记这些ne,并将它们交叉引用到相关文档中。该方法在测试语料上表现良好,平均精度接近0.97。召回率各不相同,但总体上低于准确率,平均为0.82。此外,在大学领域的名称识别方面,我们的系统优于其他两个系统:OpenNLP名称查找器和ANNIE系统。

This paper presents the GE-Fusion Band, a wearable prototype armband that incorporates Gyro and EMG sensor fusion for interfacing with technology. The armband enables any user with some level of yaw and pitch arm movement, and arm muscle voluntary contraction, to potentially control an electrical device like a computer, robotic arm, or mobile phone. Simple Gyro data calculates pitch and yaw, while EMG threshold based techniques were used for a virtual enter button. Only light weight signal processing was required to achieve acceptable results, reducing the required processing time on the microcontroller and receiving device, thereby allowing the GE-Fusion Band to be interfaced with almost any device. The device aims to make interaction more intuitive for disabled users while providing an alternative interface for non-disabled users.

Magnetic field effect on current oscillations observed in p-i-n GaInNAs/GaAs multiple quantum wells structures 磁场对p-i-n GaInNAs/GaAs多量子阱结构中电流振荡的影响

The photoconductivity (PC) of two p-i-n GaInNAs/GaAs multiple quantum well (MQW) mesa structures is investigated. When illuminated with photons at energy greater than the GaAs bandgap, at low temperature a number of oscillations are observed in the current-voltage (I-V) characteristics. We found that the position of these oscillations depend upon on the temperature and the magnetic field. Due to the absence of the oscillations in the dark and in the PC at temperatures above 200 K, we explain them in terms of photogenerated electrons thermally escaping from the quantum wells and carrier accumulation. Magnetic fields up to 11 T were applied parallel to the planes of the QWs. A small voltage shift in the position of the oscillations was observed, proportional to the magnetic field intensity and dependent upon the temperature. Calculation of the Landau level energy separation (16 meV) agrees with the observed experimental data.
研究了两种p-i-n GaInNAs/GaAs多量子阱(MQW)结构的光电导率(PC)。当用能量大于砷化镓带隙的光子照射时,在低温下,在电流-电压(I-V)特性中观察到许多振荡。我们发现这些振荡的位置取决于温度和磁场。由于在黑暗中和温度高于200 K的PC中没有振荡,我们用光生电子从量子阱热逃逸和载流子积累来解释它们。平行于量子阱的平面施加高达11t的磁场。在振荡的位置观察到一个小的电压位移,与磁场强度成正比,并依赖于温度。朗道能级能量分离(16 meV)的计算结果与实验观测数据吻合。

The performance of wireless sensor networks (WSN) is prone to adverse influences from a number of factors such as the interference from co-located wireless systems utilising the same spectral space. Channel hopping technique was proposed to mitigate the problem via periodic change of the operating frequency, and has been adopted in the form of time slotted channel hopping (TSCH) by IEEE 802.15.4e standard. This paper proposes adaptive slotted channel hopping (A-TSCH), an enhanced version of the TSCH aided by blacklisting technique. Complete design and implementation specifics are provided; and the results of experiments are analysed to show its advantages over existing TSCH. The main finding of this work is that A-TSCH can significantly improve the reliability of channel hopping scheme and thus provide better protection from interference for wireless sensor networks.
无线传感器网络(WSN)的性能容易受到许多因素的不利影响,例如利用相同频谱空间的同址无线系统的干扰。为了解决这一问题,提出了通过周期性改变工作频率的信道跳频技术,并在IEEE 802.15.4e标准中以时隙信道跳频(TSCH)的形式予以采用。本文提出了自适应开槽信道跳频(A-TSCH),这是在黑名单技术的辅助下对TSCH的改进。提供完整的设计和实施细节;并对实验结果进行了分析,证明了该方法相对于现有的超高频同步电动机的优越性。本工作的主要发现是A-TSCH可以显著提高信道跳频方案的可靠性,从而为无线传感器网络提供更好的抗干扰保护。

On the application of Genetic Programming to the envelope reduction problem 遗传规划在包络约简问题中的应用

Large sparse matrices characterise the linear systems found in various scientific and engineering domains such as fluid mechanics, structural engineering, finite element analysis and network analysis. The ordering of the rows and columns of a matrix determines how close to the main diagonal its non-zero elements are, which in turn greatly influences the performance of solvers for the associated linear system. The reduction of the sum of the distance of non-zero elements from the matrix's main diagonal - a quantity known as envelope - is thus a key issue in many domains. Formally, the problem consists in finding a permutation of the rows and columns of a matrix which minimises its envelope. The problem is known to be NP-complete. A considerable number of methods have been proposed for reducing the envelope. These methods are mostly based on graph-theoretic concepts. While metaheuristic approaches are viable alternatives to classical optimisation techniques in a variety of domains, in the case of the envelope reduction problem, there has been a very limited exploration of such methods. In this paper, a Genetic Programming system capable of reducing the envelope of sparse matrices is presented. We evaluate our method on a set of standard benchmarks from the Harwell-Boeing sparse matrix collection against four state-of-the-art algorithms from the literature. The results obtained show that the proposed method compares very favourably with these algorithms.
在流体力学、结构工程、有限元分析和网络分析等各种科学和工程领域中,大型稀疏矩阵是线性系统的特征。矩阵的行和列的顺序决定了它的非零元素离主对角线有多近,这反过来又极大地影响了相关线性系统求解器的性能。因此,减少非零元素到矩阵主对角线的距离之和——一个被称为包络线的量——在许多领域是一个关键问题。形式上,问题在于找到一个矩阵的行和列的排列,使其包络最小化。已知这个问题是np完全的。已经提出了相当多的减少包络的方法。这些方法大多基于图论概念。虽然元启发式方法在许多领域是经典优化技术的可行替代方案,但在包络缩减问题的情况下,对此类方法的探索非常有限。本文提出了一种能够减少稀疏矩阵包络的遗传规划系统。我们在一组来自Harwell-Boeing稀疏矩阵集合的标准基准上对文献中的四种最先进的算法进行了评估。结果表明,本文提出的方法与上述几种算法具有较好的比较效果。

While metaheuristic approaches are viable alternatives to classical optimisation techniques in a variety of domains, in the case of the envelope reduction problem, there has been a very limited exploration of such methods. In this paper, a Genetic Programming system capable of reducing the envelope of sparse matrices is presented. We evaluate our method on a set of standard benchmarks from the Harwell-Boeing sparse matrix collection against four state-of-the-art algorithms from the literature. The results obtained show that the proposed method compares very favourably with these algorithms.","PeriodicalId":142286,"journal":{"name":"2012 4th Computer Science and Electronic Engineering Conference (CEEC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130247069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Network Simulator (NS2) is simulation tool for networking research purpose. It is an open source code, so it can be modified and extended easily. This paper will present the underwater acoustic channel model and how it has been implemented in NS2 instead of the free-space channel. The acoustic propagation, noise, attenuation and transmission power threshold are discussed. Validation of the developed underwater acoustic model has been presented and compared with analytical results.
