Abstract At present, the research on the classification of e-commerce users is relatively mature, but with the rise of mobile social networks, the combination of social networks and e-commerce networks has become a trend and is developing rapidly. Traditional e-commerce user classification methods are not suitable for social e-commerce users. Therefore, based on the research on traditional e-commerce user classification methods, according to the characteristics of social e-commerce users, we improved data preprocessing and parameter tuning methods, and proposed a clustering method of social e-commerce users based on the K-means++ algorithm. The test on the actual More >

Abstract Replacing or recharging batteries in the sensor nodes of a wireless sensor network (WSN) is a significant challenge. Therefore, efficient power utilization by sensors is a critical requirement, and it is closely related to the life span of the network. Once a sensor node consumes all its energy, it will no longer function properly. Therefore, various protocols have been proposed to minimize the energy consumption of sensors and thus prolong the network operation. Recently, clustering algorithms combined with artificial intelligence have been proposed for this purpose. In particular, various protocols employ the K-means clustering algorithm,… More >

Abstract In recent years, with the continuous development of information technology and the rapid growth of network scale, network monitoring and management become more and more important. Network traffic is an important part of network state. In order to ensure the normal operation of the network, improve the availability of the network, find network faults in time and deal with network attacks; it is necessary to detect the abnormal traffic in the network. Abnormal traffic detection is of great significance in the actual network management. Therefore, in order to improve the accuracy and efficiency of network… More >

Abstract Late fusion multi-view clustering (LFMVC) algorithms aim to integrate the base partition of each single view into a consensus partition. Base partitions can be obtained by performing kernel k-means clustering on all views. This type of method is not only computationally efficient, but also more accurate than multiple kernel k-means, and is thus widely used in the multi-view clustering context. LFMVC improves computational efficiency to the extent that the computational complexity of each iteration is reduced from O(n³) to O(n) (where n is the number of samples). However, LFMVC also limits the search space of the… More >

Abstract Disease recognition in plants is one of the essential problems in agricultural image processing. This article focuses on designing a framework that can recognize and classify diseases on pomegranate plants exactly. The framework utilizes image processing techniques such as image acquisition, image resizing, image enhancement, image segmentation, ROI extraction (region of interest), and feature extraction. An image dataset related to pomegranate leaf disease is utilized to implement the framework, divided into a training set and a test set. In the implementation process, techniques such as image enhancement and image segmentation are primarily used for identifying More >

Abstract Detection of textual data from scene text images is a very thought-provoking issue in the field of computer graphics and visualization. This challenge is even more complicated when edge intelligent devices are involved in the process. The low-quality image having challenges such as blur, low resolution, and contrast make it more difficult for text detection and classification. Therefore, such exigent aspect is considered in the study. The technology proposed is comprised of three main contributions. (a) After synthetic blurring, the blurred image is preprocessed, and then the deblurring process is applied to recover the image.… More >

Abstract K-means is a simple and commonly used algorithm, which is widely applied in many fields due to its fast convergence and distinctive performance. In this paper, a novel algorithm is proposed to help K-means jump out of a local optimum on the basis of several ideas from evolutionary computation, through the use of random and evolutionary processes. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is capable of improving the accuracy of K-means and decreasing the SSE of K-means, which indicates that the proposed algorithm can prevent K-means from falling into the local optimum to More >

Abstract Recently, owing to the capability of mobile and wearable devices to sense daily human activity, human activity recognition (HAR) datasets have become a large-scale data resource. Due to the heterogeneity and nonlinearly separable nature of the data recorded by these sensors, the datasets generated require special techniques to accurately predict human activity and mitigate the considerable heterogeneity. Consequently, classic clustering algorithms do not work well with these data. Hence, kernelization, which converts the data into a new feature vector representation, is performed on nonlinearly separable data. This study aims to present a robust method to… More >

Abstract The traditional K-means clustering algorithm is difficult to determine the cluster number, which is sensitive to the initialization of the clustering center and easy to fall into local optimum. This paper proposes a clustering algorithm based on self-organizing mapping network and weight particle swarm optimization SOM&WPSO (Self-Organization Map and Weight Particle Swarm Optimization). Firstly, the algorithm takes the competitive learning mechanism of a self-organizing mapping network to divide the data samples into coarse clusters and obtain the clustering center. Then, the obtained clustering center is used as the initialization parameter of the weight particle swarm… More >
