  • This paper discusses a new algorithm, the PAPANET (Pivot And Probe Algorithm for NETwork optimization), for solving linear, capacitated linear network flow problem (NPs), PAPANET is a variation and specialization of the Pivot And Probe Algorithm (PAPA) developed by Sethi and Thompson, published in 1983-1984. PAPANET first solves an initial relaxed NP (RNP) with all the nodes from the original problem and a limited set of arcs (possibly all the artificial and slack arcs). From the arcs not considered in the current relaxation, we PROBE to identify candidate arcs that violate the current solution's dual constraints maximally. Candidate arcs are added to the RNP, and this new RNP is solved to optimality. This candidate pricing procedure and pivoting continue until all the candidate arcs price unfavorably and all of the dual constraints corresponding to the other, so-called noncandidate arcs, are satisfied. The implementation of PAPANET requires significantly fewer arcs and less solution CPU time than is required by the standard network simplex method implementation upon which it is based. Computational tests on randomly generated NPs indicate that our PAPANET implementation requires up to 40-50% fewer pivots and 30-40% less solution CPU time than is required by the comparable standard network simplex implementation from which it is derived.

  • When we detect side-view face in color image, we decide a candidate face region using skin-tone color, and confirm to the face by template matching. Cang Wei use a left and a right template of face, calculate to similarity value by hausdorff method, and decide the final side-view face. It has a characteristic that side-view face is wide spreading neck region. To get exactly result, face region is separated vertically by 3 pixel unit, and matched template. In this paper, we assume that a side-view face is a right side-view or a left side-view face. We separate a half of the candidate face region vertically, and regard a left side as left candidate face, a right side as right candidate face by template matching. This method detect faster than Gang Wei method.

  • In similarity join processing, a general technique employs a generation-verification framework, which includes two phases: the first phase generates a set of candidate pairs from a collection of records; and the second phase verifies each candidate pair by computing real similarity. In order to reduce the number of candidate pairs in the verification phase, the median of one record of each candidate pair is used as a filter in this paper to test whether the other record can has the proper number of overlapped tokens. We propose a similarity join algorithm with the median filter, and show that the proposed algorithm has better performance in execution time than recent algorithms without the filter through extensive experiments on real-world datasets.

  • A method to detect lots of porno documents on the internet is presented in this parer. The proposed method applies fuzzy inference mechanism to the conventional information retrieval techniques. First, several example sites on porno arc provided by users and then candidate words representing for porno documents are extracted from theme documents. In this process, lexical analysis and stemming are performed. Then, several values such as tole term frequency(TF), the document frequency(DF), and the Heuristic Information(HI) Is computed for each candidate word. Finally, fuzzy inference is performed with the above three values to weight candidate words. The weights of candidate words arc used to determine whether a liven site is sexual or not. From experiments on small test collection, the proposed method was shown useful to detect the sexual sites automatically.

  • Reading comprehension (RC) systems are to understand a given text and return answers in response to questions about the text. Many previous studies extract sentences that are the most similar to questions as answers. However, texts for RC tests are generally short and facts about an event or entity are often expressed in multiple sentences. The answers for some questions might be indirectly presented in the sentences having few overlapping words with the questions. This paper proposes a conceptual graph matching method towards RC tests to extract answer strings. The method first represents the text and questions as conceptual graphs, and then extracts subgraphs for every candidate answer concept from the text graph. All candidate answer concepts will be scored and ranked according to the matching similarity between their sub-graphs and question graph. The top one will be returned as answer seed to form a concise answer string. Since the sub-graphs for candidate answer concepts are not restricted to only covering a single sentence, our approach improved the performance of answer extraction on the Remedia test data.

  • In this paper, we propose a pothole detection method in asphalt pavement using various features. Segmentation, candidate, and decision steps of pothole detection are processed according to the values which are derived from feature characteristics. Segmentation step, we use histogram and closing operation of morphology filter which extracts dark regions for pothole detection. Candidate step, we extract candidate regions of pothole using various features such as size, compactness, etc. Finally, decision step, candidate regions are decided whether pothole or not using comparison of pothole and background's features. Experimental results show that our proposed pothole detection method has better results than existing methods and good performance in discrimination of pothole and similar patterns.

  • As a greedy algorithm reconstructing the sparse signal from underdetermined system, orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm has received much attention. In this paper, we multiple candidate matching pursuit (MuCaMP), which builds up candidate support set in every iteration and uses the minimum residual at last iteration. Using the restricted isometry property (RIP), we derive the sufficient condition for MuCaMP to recover the sparse signal exactly. The MuCaMP guarantees to reconstruct the K-sparse signal when the sensing matrix satisfies the RIP constant ${\delta}_{N+K}<\frac{\sqrt{N}}{\sqrt{K}+3\sqrt{N}}$. In addition, we show a recovery performance both noiseless and noisy measurements.

  • Recently simulation model becomes an essential tool for analysis and design of a system but it is often expensive and time consuming as it becomes complicate to achieve reliable results. Therefore, high-fidelity simulation model needs to be replaced by an approximate model, the so-called metamodel. Metamodeling techniques include 3 components of sampling, metamodel and validation. Cross-validation approach has been proposed to provide sequnatially new sample point based on cross-validation error but it is very expensive because cross-validation must be evaluated at each stage. To enhance the cross-validation of metamodel, sequential sampling method using candidate points and representative cross-validation is proposed in this paper. The candidate and representative cross-validation approach of sequential sampling is illustrated for two-dimensional domain. To verify the performance of the suggested sampling technique, we compare the accuracy of the metamodels for various mathematical functions with that obtained by conventional sequential sampling strategies such as maximum distance, mean squared error, and maximum entropy sequential samplings. Through this research we team that the proposed approach is computationally inexpensive and provides good prediction performance.

  • In order to reduce time-to-market, the demand for fast fault diagnosis has been increased. In this paper, a fault dropping technique with fault candidate ordering and test pattern ordering for fast fault diagnosis is proposed. Experimental results using the full-scanned ISCAS 89 benchmark circuits show the efficiency of the fault dropping technique with fault candidate ordering and test pattern ordering.

  • This research explores the effect of features of political candidate on the electors' emotion and support. Though lots of researches have been proceeded about nonverbal communication clues such as posture, gesture, makeup, the research on the effect of glasses which can express in the face of candidate on the electors can not be easily found. For this experimental research, 2 group of subjects composed of university students was exposed to different type of TV address video and respond to survey questions which were analysed by SPSS program. This research found that the glasses of candidate could affect good feeling and support of electors but not on intimacy and confidence of them.
