The idea of enriching a cultural heritage visitor’s experience by employing mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets is an active research domain. This is mainly due to the worldwide user penetration of such devices along with their continuous hardware performance enhancement. This work presents the experience and feedback gained by one year of operation of an experimental information system that aims in enhancing the experience of a visitor on his/her demand. The evaluated system is based on the use case-scenario where the a mobile device is used to capture and decode passive markers (such as QR-codes) that are located on facades of selected important buildings in the old town of Xanthi, Greece, in order to enrich the visitor’s experience through a broad context of historical and architectural information delivered over the Web.

Designing an optimal Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy system for real–world non–linear control problems is a challenging problem. Complex non–linear system produces large fuzzy rule–based and requires large amount of memory. To overcome these problems, this paper proposes a hybrid approach to generate the optimal T–S fuzzy system. First, the Fuzzy Clustering Method (FCM) is employed to partitioning the input space and extracting initial fuzzy rule–based. Moreover, a new Adaptive Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO) technique is suggested to determine the optimal number of clusters in FCM, which is the same as the number of fuzzy rules. Finally, Recursive Least Square (RLS) method based on the Mean Square Errors (MSE) criterion is used to regulate the coefficients of the consequent part of initial fuzzy rules. Some simulations are conducted on a Non–Linear Inverted Pendulum (NLIP) system to support the efficiency of the proposed approach in designing compact and accurate T–S fuzzy systems.

With the growing number of XML documents on the Web it becomes essential to effectively organize these XML documents in order to retrieve useful information from them. A possible solution is to apply clustering on the XML documents to discover knowledge that promotes effective data management, information retrieval and query processing. This paper presents a framework for clustering XML documents by structure. Modelling the XML documents as rooted ordered labeled trees, we study the usage of structural distance metrics in hierarchical clustering algorithms to detect groups of structurally similar XML documents. We suggest the usage of structural summaries for trees to improve the performance of the distance calculation and at the same time to maintain or even improve its quality.

Diabetes incidence is one of the most serious health challenges in both industrial and developing countries; however, it is for sure that the early detection and accurate diagnosis of this disease can decrease the risk of affiliation to other relevant disease in diabetes patients. Because of the effective classification and high diagnostic capability, expert systems and machine learning techniques are now gaining popularity in this field. In this study, Least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) was used for diabetes diagnosis. The effectiveness of the LS-SVM is examined on Pima Indian diabetes dataset using k-fold cross validation method. Compared to thirteen well-known methods for the diabetes diagnosis in the literature, the study results showed the effectiveness of the proposed method.

A hardware implementation of pulse mode Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) with on-chip learning ability is proposed in this paper. Pulse mode presents an emerging technology in digital implementation of neural networks thanks to its higher density of integration. However, hardware on-chip learning is a difficult issue, since the back-propagation algorithm is the most used, which requires a large number of logic gates in the hardware. To overcome this problem, we apply a hybrid process, which is split into two stages. In the first one, the K-means algorithm is used to update the centers of gaussian activation functions. Thereafter, the connection weights are adjusted using the back-propagation algorithm. Details of important aspects concerning the hardware implementation are given. As illustration of the efficiency and scalability of the proposed design, we consider edge detection operation which is a very important step in image processing. In the learning step, the RBFNN was taught the Canny operator behavior. Experiential results show good approximation features. The proposed design was implemented on a virtex II PRO FPGA platform and synthesis results showed higher performances when benchmarked against conventional techniques and neural ones.

This work lies within the scope of color image segmentation by spatial-region classification. The spatial distribution of objects in each region of image is difficult to be identified when the region are non-connected clusters. A standard of color identification by conventional methods of segmentation remains weak for capturing the spatial dispersion of the various objects of the same color region. We propose to apply a spatial classification to characterize geographical connected sets that represent the same regions. The originality of this paper lies in our new min-connected algorithm which is derived from a spatial-color compactness model. Our work is a hybrid segmentation that takes into account the distribution of colors in the color space and the spatial location of colors in the image plane. Experimental tests on synthetic and real images show that our technique leads to promising results for segmentation.

This paper presents application of Big Bang and Big crunch(BB-BC) a nature inspired optimization method which is developed from the concepts of universal evolution to solve complex static optimal power flow (OPF) with an aim to obtain minimum cost of thermal power generating units whose cost functions are non-convex due to valve point loading effects. Control variables to optimize cost functions by satisfying usual constraints of OPF are of continuous and discrete type (mixedinteger control variables). Mathematical programming approaches presents problem in solving non-convex OPF. Nature inspired heuristic methods can be applied to solve such non-convex optimization problems. One of the requirements of heuristic methods is numerical simplicity without trial parameters in update equation of optimization along with reliability and ease in developing computer code for implementation. Most of the nature inspired methods search efficiency and reliability depends on choice of trial parameters to update control variables as optimization advances in search of optimal control variables.BB-BC optimization has search ability on par with other popular heuristic methods but free from choice of trial parameters is applied to obtain OPF solutions on two typical power systems networks and results are compared with MATLAB-7.0 pattern random search optimization tool box .Digital simulation results indicates a promising nature of the BB-BC to deal with non-convex optimization requirements of power system situations .

Cloud computing technology and services has become an important issue in the recent years. Cloud Computing needs lot of attention, time and innovative concepts for the technology to mature over a period of time. Many organizations show interest in adopting cloud computing technology and services because of its socio economic and time factor. Cloud computing is nothing but virtual centralization of different computers where the software and memory space is provided by the vendor and the data is managed by them. This leaves the client/customer unaware of where the process is running or where the data is stored. Security of the data is highly dependent on the vendor who has to provide an assurance to the customer on security issues by making service level agreements. This paper focus on security issues, requirements for providing a secured data in cloud computing environment by giving a standard service oriented cloud computing Architecture and management tools that can be used by the organizations for authentication, confidentiality and integrity. Thus providing secured data access and transfer.
