Semantic Analysis of Natural Language Queries Using Domain Ontology for Information Access from Database

Semantic Analysis of Natural Language Queries Using Domain Ontology for Information Access from Database

Avinash J. Agrawal, O. G. Kakde

Статья научная

This paper describes a method for semantic analysis of natural language queries for Natural Language Interface to Database (NLIDB) using domain ontology. Implementation of NLIDB for serious applications like railway inquiry, airway inquiry, corporate or government call centers requires higher precision. This can be achieved by increasing role of language knowledge and domain knowledge at semantic level. Also design of semantic analyzer should be such that it can easily be ported for other domains as well. In this paper a design of semantic analyzer for railway inquiry domain is reported. Intermediate result of the system is evaluated for a corpus of natural language queries collected from casual users who were not involved in the system design.

Semantic Enabled Role Based Social Network

Semantic Enabled Role Based Social Network

Fausto Giunchiglia, Md. Saddam Hossain Mukta, Mir Tafseer Nayeem, Khandaker Tabin Hasan

Статья научная

Communication is the most common but an intricate activity that we perform every day. Sender sends message, discussions, greetings, gestures, emotics and texts through numerous channels, (e.g. e-mail, messengers, social networks and so on) intending the receiver to understand. The means of personal or group communication has been radically changed over last decade. Geographical, ethnicity, nationality, race, religion are no more hindrance for the sake of social communication. Forms of communication, event, gathering, greetings almost have altered into virtual society. But this hi-tech society has still yet enough room to strengthen its semantic nature. We have made an endeavor to conglomerate the socio-psycho-technical aspect of so-called social networks which could be more realistic, logically inferable and convincible towards people to claim its analogousness with real society. Our devised SN is able to eliminate some weird problems that we face in current SNs, imperfect relationship assignment policies and possibility of data interference among desired and intruder groups.

Semantic Schema Matching Using DBpedia

Semantic Schema Matching Using DBpedia

Saira Gillani, Muhammad Naeem, Raja Habibullah, Amir Qayyum

Статья научная

In semantic computing, Match is an operator that takes as an input two graph-like structures; it can be database schemas or XML schemas and generates a mapping between the corresponding nodes of the two graphs. In semantic schema matching, we attempt to explore the mappings between the two schemas; based on their semantics by employing any semantic similarity measure. In this study, we have defined taxonomy of all possible semantic similarity measures; moreover we also proposed an approach that exploits semantic relations stored in the DBpedia dataset while utilizing a hybrid ranking system to dig out the similarity between nodes of the two graphs.

Jingyu Wang, xuefeng Zheng, Dengliang Luo

Статья научная

Service integration and supply on-demand coming from cloud computing can significantly improve the utilization of computing resources and reduce power consumption of per service, and effectively avoid the error of computing resources. However, cloud computing is still facing the problem of intrusion tolerance of the cloud computing platform and sensitive data of new enterprise data center. In order to address the problem of intrusion tolerance of cloud computing platform and sensitive data in new enterprise data center, this paper constructs a virtualization intrusion tolerance system based on cloud computing by researching on the existing virtualization technology, and then presents a method of intrusion tolerance to protect sensitive data in cloud data center based on virtual adversary structure by utilizing secret sharing. This system adopts the method of hybrid fault model, active and passive replicas, state update and transfer, proactive recovery and diversity, and initially implements to tolerate F faulty replicas in N=2F+1 replicas and ensure that only F+1 active replicas to execute during the intrusion-free stage. The remaining replicas are all put into passive mode, which significantly reduces the resource consuming in cloud platform. At last we prove the reconstruction and confidentiality property of sensitive data by utilizing secret sharing.

Sensitivity Analysis Using Simple Additive Weighting Method

Sensitivity Analysis Using Simple Additive Weighting Method

Wayne S. Goodridge

Статья научная

The output of a multiple criteria decision method often has to be analyzed using some sensitivity analysis technique. The SAW MCDM method is commonly used in management sciences and there is a critical need for a robust approach to sensitivity analysis in the context that uncertain data is often present in decision models. Most of the sensitivity analysis techniques for the SAW method involve Monte Carlo simulation methods on the initial data. These methods are computationally intensive and often require complex software. In this paper, the SAW method is extended to include an objective function which makes it easy to analyze the influence of specific changes in certain criteria values thus making easy to perform sensitivity analysis.

Sudhir Kumar Sharma, Ximi Hoque

Статья научная

This paper analyzes the odd-even formula in Delhi using tweets posted on Twitter from December 2015 to August 2016. Twitter is a social network where users post their feelings, opinions and sentiments for any event using hashtags and mentions. The tweets posted publicly can be viewed by anyone interested. This paper transforms the unstructured tweets into structured information using open source libraries. Further objective is to build a model using Support Vector Machines (SVM) to classify unseen tweets on the same context. This paper collects tweets on this event under the hashtag "#oddeven formula". This study explores four freely available resources in the form of Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)/Packages for labeling tweets for academic research. Four machine learning models using SVM multi-class classifier were built using the labels provided by the APIs/Packages. The performances of these four models are evaluated through standard evaluation metrics. The experimental results reveal that TextBlob and Pattern python packages outperformed Vivekn and Meaning Cloud APIs. This study may also help in decision making of this event to some extent.

Sequential Adaptive Fuzzy Inference System Based Intelligent Control of Robot Manipulators

Sahraoui Mustapha, Khelfi Mohamed Fayçal, Salem Mohammed

Статья научная

The present paper is dedicated to the presentation and implementation of an optimized technique allowing an on-line estimation of a robot manipulator parameters to use them in a computed torque control. Indeed the proposed control law needs the exact robot model to give good performances. The complexity of the robot manipulator and its strong non-linearity makes it hard to know its parameters. Therefore, we propose in this paper to use neuro-fuzzy networks Sequential Adaptive Fuzzy Inference System (SAFIS) to estimate the parameters of the controlled robot manipulator.

Sequential Adaptive RBF-Fuzzy Variable Structure Control Applied to Robotics Systems

Mohammed Salem, Mohamed F. Khelfi

Статья научная

In this paper, we present a combination of sequential trained radial basis function networks and fuzzy techniques to enhance the variable structure controllers dedicated to robotics systems. In this aim, four RBFs networks were used to estimate the model based part parameters (Inertia, Centrifugal and Coriolis, Gravity and Friction matrices) of a variable structure controller so to respond to model variation and disturbances, a sequential online training algorithm based on Growing-Pruning "GAP" strategy and Kalman filter was implemented. To eliminate the chattering effect, the corrective control of the VS control was computed by a fuzzy controller. Simulations are carried out to control three degrees of freedom SCARA robot manipulator where the obtained results show good disturbance rejection and chattering elimination.

Short Term Electrical Load Forecasting Based on Weather Parameters under Multiple FIS of Processing

Aklima Khatun Akhi, Sarwar Jahan, Imdadul Islam

Статья научная

The electrical load forecasting plays a vital role on the economy of a country in context of fuel saving, working hours of employee and depreciation cost of equipment of power generating station. In this paper, we use several machine learning techniques relevant to fuzzy system to forecast the demand of electrical load on short-term basis. Here, we consider temperature, humidity, wind speed, types of day such as working day or holiday, barometric pressure as the parameters, which govern the demand of electrical load. To cope with the variables and the power demand, the previous data of Bangladesh Power Development Board (BPDB) and Bangladesh Space Research and Remote Sensing Organization (SPARRSO) were taken for training purpose and then data of current day was used as the test data. For each of the weather parameter several membership functions (MFs) were used as the fuzzy input and then Takagi-Sugeno, Mamdani rule, FCM + Mamdani and ANFIS were applied to acquire the output as the demand of load. The average percentage of error as the difference between forecasted demand and actual demand of test data was found 1.675% for Takagi-Sugeno, 1.91% for Mamdani (centroid), 2.56% for FCM + Mamdani and 3.62% for ANFIS, which were found superior to some previous research works.

Simplified real-, complex-, and quaternion-valued neuro-fuzzy learning algorithms

Simplified real-, complex-, and quaternion-valued neuro-fuzzy learning algorithms

Ryusuke Hata, M. A. H. Akhand, Md. Monirul Islam, Kazuyuki Murase

Статья научная

The conventional real-valued neuro-fuzzy method (RNF) is based on classic fuzzy systems with antecedent membership functions and consequent singletons. Rules in RNF are made by all the combinations of membership functions; thus, the number of rules as well as total parameters increase rapidly with the number of inputs. Although network parameters are relatively less in the recently developed complex-valued neuro-fuzzy (CVNF) and quaternion neuro-fuzzy (QNF), parameters increase with number of inputs. This study investigates simplified fuzzy rules that constrain rapid increment of rules with inputs; and proposed simplified RNF (SRNF), simplified CVNF (SCVNF) and simplified QNF (SQNF) employing the proposed simplified fuzzy rules in conventional methods. The proposed simplified neuro-fuzzy learning methods differ from the conventional methods in their fuzzy rule structures. The methods tune fuzzy rules based on the gradient descent method. The number of rules in these methods are equal to the number of divisions of input space; and hence they require significantly less number of parameters to be tuned. The proposed methods are tested on function approximations and classification problems. They exhibit much less execution time than the conventional counterparts with equivalent accuracy. Due to less number of parameters, the proposed methods can be utilized for the problems (e.g., real-time control of large systems) where the conventional methods are difficult to apply due to time constrain.

Simulation and Analysis of Umbilical Blood Flow using Markov-based Mathematical Model

Simulation and Analysis of Umbilical Blood Flow using Markov-based Mathematical Model

Abdullah Bin Queyam, Sharvan Kumar Pahuja, Dilbag Singh

Статья научная

The intra-uterine development of the fetus depends on various factors, one such critical factor is umbilical blood flow because the quantity of oxygen delivered to the placenta and to the fetus is directly limited by umbilical blood flow rate. Since the measurement of the hemodynamic quantities such as blood pressure and blood flow rate is not possible in utero hence the use of patient-specific mathematical modeling is beneficial for the assessment of feto-maternal well-being. A Markov model based mathematical model of fetal circulation is developed by taking three node concept. The fetus, the umbilical cord, and the placenta represent the 3 nodes of Markov model. A LabVIEW-based virtual instrument is designed to simulate the mathematical model which results in waveform similar to Doppler blood flow velocimetry of umbilical artery. The model is simulated at various degree of conductivity of the umbilical cord to the oxygenated blood. Simulation results show that the umbilical artery blood flow velocity waveform depends on gestation age, fetal heart rate, uterine contraction and placental insufficiency. The Doppler indices calculated from simulation helps in predicting both fetal and maternal abnormalities at various degrees of the conductivity to the blood flow passage. Therefore, integrating patient-specific models along with established medical equipments will be helpful in identifying true intra-uterine growth restricted fetuses from normal fetuses and helps clinicians to take timely interventions.

Simulation for the reverse extrapolation of radar threats and their verification

Simulation for the reverse extrapolation of radar threats and their verification

Sanguk Noh, So Ryoung Park

Статья научная

Various and unpredictable electronic warfare situations drive the development of an integrated electronic warfare (EW) simulator that can perform electronic warfare modeling and simulation on radar threats. This paper introduces the basic components of simulation system that enables our agents to be operational in EW settings. In various simulation of EW environments, our agents can preset their path in the existence of enemy radars' surveillance and autonomously be aware of radar threats while they proceed in their own route. As reversely extrapolating radar threats given radio-active parameters received, our agents perform an appropriate jamming technique in order to deceive the enemy radar keeping track of our agents. Based upon the response of the radar threat attacked by the jamming techniques, our agents figure out the types of the radar threat and verify its identification. For the actual and helpful information, real radars with the probability of similarity could be prioritized from radar database. The integrated EW simulator that we have designed and developed in this paper enables our agents to perform such capabilities as reverse extrapolation of RF threats, its verification using jamming, and recommendation of similar radars, and to evaluate their autonomous behaviors in a tapestry of realistic scenarios.
