  • In this paper, we apply a likelihood ratio test (LRT) to a non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) based voice activity detection (VAD) to find optimal threshold. In our approach, the NMF based VAD is expressed as Euclidean distance between noise basis vector and input basis vector which are extracted through NMF. The optimal threshold each of noise environments depend on NMF results distribution in noise region which is estimated statistical model-based VAD. According to the experimental results, the proposed approach is found to be effective for statistical model-based VAD using LRT.

  • Picosecond lasers are a very effective tool for micromachining metals, especially when high accuracy, high surface roughness and no heat affected zone are required. However, low productivity has been a limit to broadening the spectrum of their industrial applications. Recently it was reported that in the micromachining of copper with a 1064nm picosecond laser, there exist the optimal pulse energy and repetition rate to achieve the maximum volume ablation rate. In this paper, we used a 515nm picosecond laser, which is more efficient for micromachining copper in terms of laser energy absorption, to obtain its optimal pulse energy and repetition rate. Theoretical analysis based on the experimental data on copper ablation showed that using a 515nm picosecond laser instead of a 1064nm picosecond laser is more favorable in that the calculated threshold fluence is 75% lower and optical penetration depth is 50% deeper.

  • Multiperiod portfolio selection problem attracts more and more attentions because it is in accordance with the practical investment decision-making problem. However, the existing literature on this field is almost undertaken by regarding security returns as random variables in the framework of probability theory. Different from these works, we assume that security returns are uncertain variables which may be given by the experts, and take absolute deviation as a risk measure in the framework of uncertainty theory. In this paper, a new multiperiod mean absolute deviation uncertain portfolio selection models is presented by taking transaction costs, borrowing constraints and threshold constraints into account, which an optimal investment policy can be generated to help investors not only achieve an optimal return, but also have a good risk control. Threshold constraints limit the amount of capital to be invested in each stock and prevent very small investments in any stock. Based on uncertain theories, the model is converted to a dynamic optimization problem. Because of the transaction costs, the model is a dynamic optimization problem with path dependence. To solve the new model in general cases, the forward dynamic programming method is presented. In addition, a numerical example is also presented to illustrate the modeling idea and the effectiveness of the designed algorithm.

  • Various accuracy measures that can be explained on the odds curve are discussed, and an alternative accuracy measure, the maximum square, is proposed based on the characteristics of the odds curve. Thresholds corresponding to these accuracy measures are obtained by considering various probability distribution functions and an illustrative example. Their characteristics are discussed while comparing many kinds of statistics measuring thresholds. Therefore, we can conclude that optimal thresholds could be explored from the odds curve, similar to the ROC curve, and that the maximum square measure can be used as a good accuracy measure that can improve the performance of the binary classification model.

  • High-utility itemset mining (HIUM) has emerged as a key data-mining paradigm for object-of-interest identification and recommendation systems that serve as frequent itemset identification tools, product or service recommendation systems, etc. Recently, it has gained widespread attention owing to its increasing role in business intelligence, top-N recommendation, and other enterprise solutions. Despite the increasing significance and the inability to provide swift and more accurate predictions, most at-hand solutions, including frequent itemset mining, HUIM, and high average- and fast high-utility itemset mining, are limited to coping with real-time enterprise demands. Moreover, complex computations and high memory exhaustion limit their scalability as enterprise solutions. To address these limitations, this study proposes a model to extract high-utility frequent closed itemsets based on an improved cumulative summary list structure (CSLFC-HUIM) to reduce an optimal set of candidate items in the search space. Moreover, it employs the lift score as the minimum threshold, called the cumulative utility threshold, to prune the search space optimal set of itemsets in a nested-list structure that improves computational time, costs, and memory exhaustion. Simulations over different datasets revealed that the proposed CSLFC-HUIM model outperforms other existing methods, such as closed- and frequent closed-HUIM variants, in terms of execution time and memory consumption, making it suitable for different mined items and allied intelligence of business goals.

  • Most classification accuracy measures for optimal threshold are divided into two types: one is expressed with cumulative distribution functions and probability density functions, the other is based on ROC curve and AUC. Unal (2017) proposed the index of union (IU) as an accuracy measure that considers two types to get them. In this study, ten kinds of accuracy measures (including IU) are divided into six categories, and the advantages of the IU are studied by comparing the measures belonging to each category. The optimal thresholds of these measures are obtained by setting various normal mixture distributions; subsequently, the first and second type of errors as well as the error sums corresponding to each threshold are calculated. The properties and characteristics of the IU statistic are explored by comparing the discriminative power of other accuracy measures based on error values.The values of the first type error and error sum of IU statistic converge to those of the best accuracy measures of the second category as the mean difference between the two distributions increases. Therefore, IU could be an accuracy measure to evaluate the discriminant power of a model.

  • We propose efficient mobility management schemes based on pointer forwarding for Proxy Mobile IPv6 Networks(PMIPv6) with the objective to reduce the overall network traffic incurred by mobility management and packet delivery. The proposed schemes are per-user-based, i.e., the optimal threshold of the forwarding chain length that minimizes the overall network traffic is dynamically determined for each individual mobile user, based on the user's specific mobility and service patterns. We demonstrate that there exists an optimal threshold of the forwarding chain length, given a set of parameters characterizing the specific mobility and service patterns of a mobile user. We also demonstrate that our schemes yield significantly better performance than schemes that apply a static threshold to all mobile users. A comparative analysis shows that our pointer forwarding schemes outperform routing-based mobility management protocols for PMIPv6.

  • In this Paper, we propose a multi-hop transmission in cognitive underlay network. In Secondary network, We assume that a secondary source S attempts to transmit D its signal to a secondary destination via N+1 hops with help of N relays $R_1$, $R_2$, ${\ldots}$, $R_N$. At hop k between relay $R_k$ and relay $R_{k+1}$. we assume that there is a primary user $PU_k$. In this paper, we assume that these channels are Rayleigh fading channels. In underlay network, the secondary transmitter has to adapt its power so that the interference caused at the primary user is less than a maximum interference threshold. considering the hop transmission between the transmitter and the repeater, we find transmit power and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR). Between the transmitter from the receiver depending on the number of relay in the underlay network, we compared to find the transmit power and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR). Finally we find optimal number of relay and optimal threshold value.

  • In This paper, we propose the unsupervised learning and fuzzy logic-based coupled data classification method base on ART. The unsupervised learning-based data classification helps improve the grouping technique, but decreases the processing efficiency. However, the data classification requires the decision technique to induce high success rate of data classification with optimal threshold. Therefore it is also necessary to solve the uncertainty of the threshold decision. The proposed method deduces the optimal threshold with the designing of fuzzy parameter and rules. In order to evaluate the proposed method, we design the simulation model with the GPCR(G protein coupled receptor) data in cloud computing environment. Simulation results verify the efficiency of our method with the high recognition rate and low processing time.

  • In South Korea, sewage pipeline exploration devices have been developed using high resolution digital cameras of 2 mega-pixels or more. On the other hand, most devices are less than 300 kilo-pixels. Moreover, because 100 kilo-pixels devices are used widely, the environment for image processing is very poor. In this study, very low resolution ($240{\times}320$ = 76,800 pixels) images were adapted when it is difficult to detect cracks. Considering that the images of sewers in South Korea have very low resolution, this study selected low resolution images to be investigated. An automatic crack detection technique was studied using digital image processing technology for low resolution images of sewage pipelines. The authors developed a program to automatically detect cracks as 6 steps based on the MATLAB functions. In this study, the second step covers an algorithm developed to find the optimal threshold value, and the fifth step deals with an algorithm to determine cracks. In step 2, Otsu's threshold for images with a white caption was higher than that for an image without caption. Therefore, the optimal threshold was found by decreasing the Otsu threshold by 0.01 from the beginning. Step 5 presents an algorithm that detects cracks by judging that the length is 10 mm (40 pixels) or more and the width is 1 mm (4 pixels) or more. As a result, the crack detection performance was good despite the very low-resolution images.
