With the recent advances in information retrieval, cross-media retrieval has been attracting lot of attention, but several issues remain problems such as constructing effective correlations, calculating similarity between different kinds of media objects. To gain better cross-media retrieval performance, it is crucial to mine the semantic correlations among the heterogeneous multimedia data. This paper introduces a new method for cross-media retrieval which uses ontology to organize different media objects. The experiment results show that the proposed method is effective in cross-media retrieval.

In this study, an experiment of information retrieval using fuzzy connection matrix of keywords was conducted. A query for retrieval was constructed from each keyword and Boolean operator such as AND, OR, NOT. In a workstation environment, the performance of the fuzzy retrieval system was proved to be considerably effective than that of the system using the crisp set theory. And both recall ratio and precision ratio showed that the proposed technique would be a possible alternative in future information retrieval. Some special features of this experimental system were ; ranking the results in the order of connectivity, making the retrieval results correspond flexibly by changing the threshold value, trying to accord the retrieval process with the retrieval semantics by treating the averse-connectivity (fuzzy value) as a semantic approximation between kewords.

본 논문에서는 퍼지 트리플을 사용하는 내용 기반 이미지 검색 방법을 제안한다. 이미지 내 객체들 사이의 공간 관계는 내용 기반 이미지 검색을 위해 사용되는 주요한 속성들 중의 하나이다. 그러나, 기존의 트리플을 이용한 이미지 검색 시스템들은 개념 기반 검색 방법을 지원하지 못하고, 방향들 사이의 근사 정합을 처리하지 못하는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이 문제를 해결하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 개념 기반 정합과 근사 정합을 지원하는 퍼지 트리플을 이용한 이미지 검색 방법을 제안한다. 개념 기반 정합을 위해서는 퍼지 소속성 집합으로 이루어진 시소러스가 사용되며, 근사 정합을 위해서는 방향들 사이의 관계를 정량화 하기 위한 k-weight 함수가 각각 이용된다. 이 두 가지 정합은 퍼지 트리플 간의 퍼지 정합을 통하여 균일하게 지원될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 또한, 개념 기반 정합과 근사 정합에 대한 검색 효과를 정량적으로 평가하는 작업을 수행한다. Abstract This paper proposes an inexact and a concept-based image match technique based on fuzzy triples. The most general method adopted to index and retrieve images based on this spatial structure may be triple framework. However, there are two significant drawbacks in this framework; one is that it can not support a concept-based image retrieval and the other is that it fails to deal with an inexact match among directions. To compensate these problems, we develope an image retrieval technique based on fuzzy triples to make the inexact and concept-based match possible. For the concept-based match, we employ a set of fuzzy membership functions structured like a thesaurus, whereas for the inexact match, we introduce k-weight functions to quantify the similarity between directions. In fuzzy triples, the two facilities are uniformly supported by fuzzy matching. In addition, we analyze the retrieval effectiveness of our framework regarding the degree of the conceptual matching and the inexact matching.

In biology the advent of the high-throughput technology for sequencing, probing, or screening has produced huge volume of data which could not be manually handled. Biologists have resorted to software tools in order to effectively handle them. This paper introduces a bioinformatics tool to help biologists find potentially interesting pathway maps from a transcriptome data set in which the expression levels of genes are described for both case and control samples. The tool accepts a transcriptome data set, and then selects and categorizes some of genes into four classes using a fuzzy filtering technique where classes are defined by membership functions. It collects and edits the pathway maps related to those selected genes without analyst' intervention. It invokes a sequence of web service functions from KEGG, which an online pathway database system, in order to retrieve related information, locate pathway maps, and manipulate them. It maintains all retrieved pathway maps in a local database and presents them to the analysts with graphical user interface. The tool has been successfully used in identifying target genes for further analysis in transcriptome study of human cytomegalovirous. The tool is very helpful in that it can considerably save analysts' time and efforts by collecting and presenting the pathway maps that contain some interesting genes, once a transcriptome data set is just given.

There are two significant drawbacks in triple image indexing; one is that is cannot support concept-based image retrieval and the other is that it fails to allow disjunctive labeling of images. To remedy the drawbacks, we propose a new technique supporting a concept-based retrieval against images indexed by indefinite fuzzy triples (I-fuzzy triples). The I-fuzzy triples allow not only a disjunctive image labeling, but also a concept-based matching against images labeled disjunctively. The disjunctive labeling is based on the expended closed world assumption and the concept-based image retrieval is based on fuzzy matching. In this paper, we also propose a concept-based query evaluation against the image database to extract desired answers with the degree of certainty $\alpha$$\in$[1,0].

The decision making process is based on accurate and timely available information. To obtain precise information from the internet is becoming more difficult due to the continuous increase in vagueness and uncertainty from online information resources. This also poses a problem for blind people who desire the full use from online resources available to other users for decision making in their daily life. Ontology is considered as one of the emerging technology of knowledge representation and information sharing today. Fuzzy logic is a very popular technique of artificial intelligence which deals with imprecision and uncertainty. The classical ontology can deal ideally with crisp data but cannot give sufficient support to handle the imprecise data or information. In this paper, we incorporate fuzzy logic with heavyweight ontology to solve the imprecise information extraction problem from heterogeneous misty sources. Fuzzy ontology consists of fuzzy rules, fuzzy classes and their properties with axioms. We use Fuzzy OWL plug-in of Protege to model the fuzzy ontology. A prototype is developed which is based on OWL-2 (Web Ontology Language-2), PAL (Protege Axiom Language), and fuzzy logic in order to examine the effectiveness of the proposed system.

With the very large quantity of information available on the Internet, techniques for dealing with the abundance of documents have become increasingly necessary but the problem of processing information in the documents is still technically challenging and remains under study. Automatic document summary techniques have been considered as one of critical solutions for processing documents to retain the important points and to remove duplicated contents of the original documents. In this paper, we propose a document summarization technique that uses a fuzzy theory. Proposed summary technique solves the ambiguous problem of various features determining the importance of the sentence and the experiment result shows that the technique generates better results than other previous techniques.

A watermark is a signal added to the original signal in order to preserve the copyright of the owner of the digital content. The basic challenge for designing a watermarking system is a dilemma between transparency and robustness. If we want a higher rate of transparency, there has to be a compromise in terms of its robustness and vice versa. Also, until now, watermarking is generalized, resulting in the need for a specialized algorithm to work for a specialized image processing application domain. Our proposed technique takes into consideration the image characteristics for watermark insertion and it optimizes transparency and robustness. It achieved a 99.98% retrieval efficiency for an image blurring attack and counterfeits other attacks. Our proposed technique counterfeits almost all of the image processing attacks.

Relevance feedback is a technique to learn the user's subjective perception of similarity between images, and has recently gained attention in Content Based Image Retrieval. Most relevance feedback methods assume that the individual features that are used in similarity judgments do not interact with each other. However, this assumption severely limits the types of similarity judgments that can be modeled In this paper, we explore a more sophisticated model for similarity judgments based on fuzzy measures and the Choquet Integral, and propose a suitable algorithm for relevance feedback, Experimental results show that the proposed method is preferable to traditional weighted- average techniques.
