  • Adopting the method of user weighting fuzzy mathematics, the author accomplished the subject title “Study on Expert System of Chicken\`s Common Diseases Diagnostics”, which could properly diagnose 30 kinds of chicken\`s common diseases and the accordance rate reached 80% verified through 244 disease cases. On the basis of the accomplishment, the multimedia technology was adopted further more to establish a system, which integrated with the input, display, query, and processing of sound, picture and text etc., combined with the previous chicken disease diagnostic expert system, make the output information of computer more rich and comprehensive, and the accordance rate of disease diagnosis could be improved. The system consists of database, knowledge base, graphics and picture base. This system is easy to operate and interface of which is vivid and intuitive. It could output diagnostic result and prescribe rapidly, so that, such a system is not only adapted to large, medium chicken farm but also to grass-roots veterinary station for developing health care and disease diagnosing. It is sure that the system could have side prospect of application.

  • Boolean retrieval systems have been most widely used in the area of information retrieval due to easy implementation and efficient retrieval. Conventional Boolean retrieval systems. however, cannot rank retrieved documents in decreasing order of query-document similarities because they cannot compute similarity coefficients between queries and documents. Extended Boolean models such as fuzzy set. Waller-Kraft, Paice, P-Norm and Infinite-One have been developed to provide the document ranking facility. In extended Boolean models, the formulas evaluating Boolean operators AND and OR are an important component to affect the quality of document ranking. In this paper we present mathematical properties of the formulas, and analyse their effect on retrieval effectiveness. Our analyses show that P-Norm is the most suitable for achieving high retrieval effectiveness.

  • Electric load forecasting is essential for effective power system planning and operation. Complex and nonlinear relationships exist between the electric loads and their exogenous factors. In addition, time-series load data has non-stationary characteristics, such as trend, seasonality and anomalous day effects, making it difficult to predict the future loads. This paper proposes a locally-weighted polynomial neural network (LWPNN), which is a combination of a polynomial neural network (PNN) and locally-weighted regression (LWR) for daily shortterm peak load forecasting. Model over-fitting problems can be prevented effectively because PNN has an automatic structure identification mechanism for nonlinear system modeling. LWR applied to optimize the regression coefficients of LWPNN only uses the locally-weighted learning data points located in the neighborhood of the current query point instead of using all data points. LWPNN is very effective and suitable for predicting an electric load series with nonlinear and non-stationary characteristics. To confirm the effectiveness, the proposed LWPNN, standard PNN, support vector regression and artificial neural network are applied to a real world daily peak load dataset in Korea. The proposed LWPNN shows significantly good prediction accuracy compared to the other methods.

  • In this article we address some system characteristics and challenging issues in developing Context-aware Middleware for Ubiquitous Computing. The functionalities of a Context-aware Middleware includes gathering context data from hardware/software sensors, reasoning and inferring high-level context data, and disseminating/delivering appropriate context data to interested applications/services. The Middleware should facilitate the query, aggregation, and discovery for the contexts, as well as facilities to specify their privacy policy. Following a formal context model using ontology would enable syntactic and semantic interoperability, and knowledge sharing between different domains. Moddleware should also provide different kinds of context classification mechanical as pluggable modules, including rules written in different types of logic (first order logic, description logic, temporal/spatial logic, fuzzy logic, etc.) as well as machine-learning mechanical (supervised and unsupervised classifiers). Different mechanisms have different power, expressiveness and decidability properties, and system developers can choose the appropriate mechanism that best meets the reasoning requirements of each context. And finally, to promote the context-trigger actions in application level, it is important to provide a uniform and platform-independent interface for applications to express their need for different context data without knowing how that data is acquired. The action could involve adapting to the new environment, notifying the user, communicating with another device to exchange information, or performing any other task.

  • Background: Published manuscripts are the main source of biological knowledge. Since the manual examination is almost impossible due to the huge volume of literature data (approximately 19 million abstracts in PubMed), intelligent text mining systems are of great utility for knowledge discovery. However, most of current text mining tools have limited applicability because of i) providing abstract-based search rather than sentence-based search, ii) improper use or lack of ontology terms, iii) the design to be used for specific subjects, or iv) slow response time that hampers web services and real time applications. Results: We introduce an advanced text mining system called PubMine that supports intelligent knowledge discovery based on diverse bio-ontologies. PubMine improves query accuracy and flexibility with advanced search capabilities of fuzzy search, wildcard search, proximity search, range search, and the Boolean combinations. Furthermore, PubMine allows users to extract multi-dimensional relationships between genes, diseases, and chemical compounds by using OLAP (On-Line Analytical Processing) techniques. The HUGO gene symbols and the MeSH ontology for diseases, chemical compounds, and anatomy have been included in the current version of PubMine, which is freely available at http://pubmine.kobic.re.kr. Conclusions: PubMine is a unique bio-text mining system that provides flexible searches and analysis of biological entity relationships. We believe that PubMine would serve as a key bioinformatics utility due to its rapid response to enable web services for community and to the flexibility to accommodate general ontology.
