Abstract Because existing proportional-integral-derivative (PID) tuning method using similarity measures of single-valued neutrosophic sets (SVNSs) and an increasing step algorithm shows its complexity and inconvenience, this paper proposes a PID tuning method using a cosine similarity measure of SVNSs and genetic algorithm (GA) to improve the existing PID tuning method. In the tuning process, the step response characteristic values (rising time, settling time, overshoot ratio, undershoot ratio, peak time, and steady-state error) of the control system are converted into the single-valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) by the neutrosophic membership functions (Neutrosophication). Then the values of three appropriate parameters in a PID controller… More >

Abstract Word similarity (WS) is a fundamental and critical task in natural language processing. Existing approaches to WS are mainly to calculate the similarity or relatedness of word pairs based on word embedding obtained by massive and high-quality corpus. However, it may suffer from poor performance for insuf- ficient corpus in some specific fields, and cannot capture rich semantic and sentimental information. To address these above problems, we propose an enhancing embedding-based word similarity evaluation with character-word concepts and synonyms knowledge, namely EWS-CS model, which can provide extra semantic information to enhance word similarity evaluation. The core of our approach contains… More >

Abstract The meaning of a word includes a conceptual meaning and a distributive meaning. Word embedding based on distribution suffers from insufficient conceptual semantic representation caused by data sparsity, especially for low-frequency words. In knowledge bases, manually annotated semantic knowledge is stable and the essential attributes of words are accurately denoted. In this paper, we propose a Conceptual Semantics Enhanced Word Representation (CEWR) model, computing the synset embedding and hypernym embedding of Chinese words based on the Tongyici Cilin thesaurus, and aggregating it with distributed word representation to have both distributed information and the conceptual meaning encoded in the representation of… More >

Abstract Recommender systems are rapidly transforming the digital world into intelligent information hubs. The valuable context information associated with the users’ prior transactions has played a vital role in determining the user preferences for items or rating prediction. It has been a hot research topic in collaborative filtering-based recommender systems for the last two decades. This paper presents a novel Context Based Rating Prediction (CBRP) model with a unique similarity scoring estimation method. The proposed algorithm computes a context score for each candidate user to construct a similarity pool for the given subject user-item pair and intuitively choose the highly influential… More >

Abstract Calculating the semantic similarity of two sentences is an extremely challenging problem. We propose a solution based on convolutional neural networks (CNN) using semantic and syntactic features of sentences. The similarity score between two sentences is computed as follows. First, given a sentence, two matrices are constructed accordingly, which are called the syntax model input matrix and the semantic model input matrix; one records some syntax features, and the other records some semantic features. By experimenting with different arrangements of representing the syntactic and semantic features of the sentences in the matrices, we adopt the most effective way of constructing… More >

Abstract With the continuous expansion of software scale, software update and maintenance have become more and more important. However, frequent software code updates will make the software more likely to introduce new defects. So how to predict the defects quickly and accurately on the software change has become an important problem for software developers. Current defect prediction methods often cannot reflect the feature information of the defect comprehensively, and the detection effect is not ideal enough. Therefore, we propose a novel defect prediction model named ITNB (Improved Transfer Naive Bayes) based on improved transfer Naive Bayesian algorithm in this paper, which… More >

Abstract An unsteady viscous fluid flow with Dufour and Soret effect, which results in heat and mass transfer due to upward and downward motion of flexible rotating disk, has been studied. The upward or downward motion of non rotating disk results in two dimensional flow, while the vertical action and rotation of the disk results in three dimensional flow. By using an appropriate transformation the governing equations are transformed into the system of ordinary differential equations. The system of ordinary differential equations is further converted into first order differential equation by selecting suitable variables. Then, we generalize the model by using… More >

Abstract Image classifiers that based on Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have been proved to be easily fooled by well-designed perturbations. Previous defense methods have the limitations of requiring expensive computation or reducing the accuracy of the image classifiers. In this paper, we propose a novel defense method which based on perceptual hash. Our main goal is to destroy the process of perturbations generation by comparing the similarities of images thus achieve the purpose of defense. To verify our idea, we defended against two main attack methods (a white-box attack and a black-box attack) in different DNN-based image classifiers and show that,… More >

Abstract Fabric defect detection has been an indispensable and important link in fabric production, many studies on the development of vision based automated inspection techniques have been reported. The main drawback of existing methods is that they can only inspect a particular type of fabric pattern in controlled environment. Recently, nonlocal self-similarity (NSS) based method is used for fabric defect detection. This method achieves good defect detection performance for small defects with uneven illumination, the disadvantage of NNS based method is poor for detecting linear defects. Based on this reason, we improve NSS based defect detection method by introducing a gray… More >

Abstract Image compression is a process based on reducing the redundancy of the image to be stored or transmitted in an efficient form. In this work, a new idea is proposed, where we take advantage of the redundancy that appears in a group of images to be all compressed together, instead of compressing each image by itself. In our proposed technique, a classification process is applied, where the set of the input images are classified into groups based on existing technique like L₁ and L₂ norms, color histograms. All images that belong to the same group are compressed based on dividing… More >
