Activity Recognition (AR), Internet of Things (IoT), and speech recognition are emerging technologies in the context of wearable devices and Mobile health (mHealth) networks. Applications of mHealth sensors on human bodies can involve the measurement of physiological data, and may be utilized to initiate an alarm in an emergency health situation. AR devices such as accelerometers may also be used for a similar application in determining the activity and posture status of the user. However, there is always the possibility of false alarms, and to avoid these occurrences, we propose a user feedback system for alarm confirmation via a smart device. As users may be unable to physically respond in some situations, such as a state of immobility from injury, this paper proposes to improve the user feedback system with a voice confirmation functionality utilizing speech recognition embedded within smart devices. The potentials of this user feedback system in mHealth can not only contribute towards improve the alarm accuracy, but may reduce the occurrence of false alarms. Its functionality can also be enhanced via real-time communication with their health service provider who can assess the user health status with the data from the sensors.

Recently, a modified zeroing neural network (MZNN) model has been presented for solving quadratic programming problems, which is of noise-tolerant ability. In this paper, we conduct further investigations on such a model and then present a nonlinear function activated model. Finally, the presented nonlinear function activated model is applied to the motion control of robots.

In a surveillance camera environment, detecting pigs in a pig room is an important issue in terms of automatic management. In addition, it is important to analyze the area of lying-pigs in order to estimate the temperature of a pig room. However, it is difficult to recognize whether the pigs are lying or standing from RGB data because the data do not have any height information. In this study, we propose a method to detect lying-pigs by using depth information obtained from a 3D Kinect camera. According to the experimental results, we confirmed that the proposed method could detect lying-pigs by using a difference of the depth information between pigs and floor.

In today's e-commerce environment, Collaborative Filtering (CF) is a widely used algorithm for recommender system, which is to identify the users who have similar preferences to the target user, and to predict the preference of the target user according to the preference ratings of the similar users. However, if the preference ratings of the target user are rare or none, then it cannot effectively identify the users with the similar preferences to the target user. In order to solve the problem of collaborative filtering, this study uses the implicit rating method to automatically calculate the user preference for the items by using the transaction data of the users, and further constructs an item-to-item, user-to-user, and user-to-item relationships, which can be used to calculate the preference rating for the target user, and recommend the products to the target user. The experimental results also show that the recommendation accuracy of our algorithm is higher than the other algorithms on average.

Machine translation, using the transfer approach, generally follows different phases: morphology, syntax, and semantics. Morphology refers to the study of the structure of words or how words are formed [6]. Syntax deals with how words can be combined together to make larger phrases, such as, sentences. Semantics deals with real world knowledge or the meaning of the sentence [7]. The system compared content of up to thirty essay text files. It has the similarity computations using Prototyping Model as a software engineering paradigm in developing SimC.

Recently, emotion recognition has gained increasing attention in various applications related to Social Signal Processing (SSP) and human affect. The existing research is mainly focused on six basic emotions (happy, sad, fear, disgust, angry, and surprise). However human expresses many kind of emotions, including mix emotion which has not been explored due to its complexity. We model 12 types of mix emotion recognition from facial expression in a sequence of images using two-stages learning which combines Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Conditional Random Fields (CRF) as sequence classifiers. SVM classifies each image frame and produce emotion label output, subsequently it becomes the input for CRF which yields the mix emotion label of the corresponding observation sequence. We evaluate our proposed model on modified image frames of Cohn Kanade+ dataset, and on our own made mix emotion dataset. We also compare our model with the original CRF model, and our model shows a superior performance result.

This research investigates the large hype surrounding big data (BD) and Analytics (BDA) in both academia and the business world. Initial insights pointed to large and complex amalgamations of different fields, techniques and tools. Above all, BD as a research field and as a business tool found to be under developing and is fraught with many challenges. The intention here in this research is to develop an adoption model of BD that could detect key success predictors. The research finds a great interest and optimism about BD value that fueled this current buzz behind this novel phenomenon. Like any disruptive innovation, its assimilation in organizations oppressed with many challenges at various contextual levels. BD would provide different advantages to organizations that would seriously consider all its perspectives alongside its lifecycle in the pre-adoption or adoption or implementation phases. The research attempts to delineate the different facets of BD as a technology and as a management tool highlighting different contributions, implications and recommendations. This is of great interest to researchers, professional and policy makers.

This paper presents a natural language processing (NLP) approach to construct signs and symptoms corpus in order to identify signs and symptoms recoded in a Thai chief complains (CCs) based on the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems 10th Revision (ICD-10) form. We define our native language "Thai language" as the natural language in our works thus the challenge is how to apply NLP concept that is originally designed for English language. We start from tokenization to extract Thai token from Thai chief complains, and then the tokens is analyzed in order to assigning a specific tag in terms of ICD-10 code.
