Web based entity linking cannot be applied in tweet entity linking because twitter documents are shorter in comparison to web documents. Therefore, tweet entity linking uses the information of users or groups. However, data sparseness problem is occurred due to the users with the inadequate number of twitter experience data; in addition, a negative impact on the accuracy of the linking result for users is possible when using the information of unrelated groups. To solve the data sparseness problem, we consider three features including the meanings from single tweets, the users' own tweet set and the sets of other users' tweets. Furthermore, we improve the performance and the accuracy of the tweet entity linking by assigning a weight to the information of users with a high similarity. Through a comparative experiment using actual twitter data, we verify that the proposed tweet entity linking has higher performance and accuracy than existing methods, and has a correlation with solving the data sparseness problem and improved linking accuracy for use of information of high similarity users.

In pure P2P environment, it is possible to provide service by using a little real-time information without using accumulated information. But in case of using only a little information that was locally collected, quality of recommendation service can be fallen-off. Therefore, it is necessary to study a method to improve qualify of recommendation service by using users' context information. But because a great volume of users' context information can be recognized in a moment, there can be a scalability problem and there are limitations in supporting differentiated services according to fields and items. In this paper, we solved the scalability problem by clustering context information per each service field and classifying it per each user, using SOM. In addition, we could recommend proper services for users by quantifying the context information of the users belonging to the similar classification to the service requester among classified data and then using collaborative filtering.

Due to the usefulness of the collaborative filtering, it has been widely used in both the research and commercial field. However, there are still some challenges for it to be more efficient, especially the scalability problem, the sparsity problem and the cold start problem. In this paper. we address these problems and provide a novel distributed approach based on agents collaboration for the problems. We have tried to solve the scalability problem by making each agent save its users ratings and broadcast them to the users friends so that only friends ratings and his own ratings are kept in an agents local database. To reduce quality degradation of recommendation caused by the lack of rating data, we introduce a method using friends opinions instead of real rating data when they are not available. We also suggest a collaborative filtering algorithm based on user profile to provide new users with recommendation service. Experiments show that our suggested approach is helpful to the new user problem as well as is more scalable than traditional centralized CF filtering systems and alleviate the sparsity problem.

In cognitive radio networks, several research works typically address the framework which consists of a spectrum sensing period and a data transmission period. When the frame period is short, there is the problem that the throughput of secondary users decrease. In this paper, aggregated data slot structure is considered to increase the throughput of secondary users. Chapman-Kolmogorov equation is used for the modeling of the transmission probability of primary users and formulation of an optimization problem to maximize the throughput of secondary users. Solution of the optimization problem results in the optimal spectrum sensing time, the length of data slot and the number of data slots governed by a spectrum sensing.

Collaborative filtering(CF) uses the purchase or item rating history of other users, but does not need additional properties or attributes of users and items. Hence CF is known th be the most successful recommendation technology. But conventional CF approach has some significant weakness, such as the new user problem. In this paper, we propose a approach using word embedding with skip-gram for learning distributed item representations. In particular, we show that this approach can be used to capture precise item for solving the "new user problem." The proposed approach has been tested on the Movielens databases. We compare the performance of the user based CF, item based CF and our approach by observing the change of recommendation results according to the different number of item rating information. The experimental results shows the improvement in our approach in measuring the precision applied to new user problem situations.

User-based and item-based approaches have been developed as the solutions of the movie recommendation problem. However, the user-based approach is faced with the problem of sparsity, and the item-based approach is faced with the problem of not reflecting users' preferences. In order to solve these problems, there is a research on the combination of the two methods using the concept of similarity. In reality, it is not free from the problem of sparsity, since it has a lot of parameters to be calculated. In this study, we propose a combining method that simplifies the combination equation of prior study. This method is relatively free from the problem of sparsity, since it has less parameters to be calculated. Thus, it can get more accurate results by reflecting the users rating to calculate the parameters. It is very fast to predict new movie ratings as well. In experiments for the proposed method, the initial error is large, but the performance gets quickly stabilized after. In addition, it showed about 6% lower average error rate than the existing method using similarity.

Existing user research methods are subject to a variety of research conditions such as the amount and variety of data collected and the expertise of the facilitator of a group research session. In this study, we propose a new user research methodology using an 'Issue-Network' system, which is developed based on the theory and methods of social network analysis. The Issue-Network is designed to define problem spaces from the issues raised by users in a group research session in a form of an interactive network graph. The system helps to break out of ordinary perspectives of looking into problem spaces by enabling an alternative and more creative way to connect issues in the network. In this study, we took a case study of generating the Issue-Network on behalf of the problems raised by users in various driving-related situations. We were able to draw three navigation usage scenarios that cover relatively important problem spaces: safety and being ready for the unexpected, smart navigation and notifications, making use of the spare time. In the future, the Issue-Network system is expected to be used as a tool to identify problems and derive solutions in group research sessions involving a large number of users.

In this paper, we purpose the integrated TMS to solve the problem of current systems. The current system resulted in inconvenience because customers and users must contact to each system, when they want to know the information about orders. In this research, we develope a system with which customers and users can confirm all of order information from one system. To solve this problem, the information brought from two systems is integrated by constructing integrated database.

In this paper, we propose the power control problem for cognitive radio networks (CRNs) that maximizes the total utility of the secondary users (SUs). We use the interference temperature constraints to protect the primary users (PUs). The utility functions of SUs can be any increasing functions. We formulate the power control problem as monotonic optimization that can be solved in centralization to achieve the global optimum.

Among the standards of CALS, CITIS(Contractor Integrated Technical Information Service) is a standard in information share procedure which manages all data and services occurred between a contractor and a purchaser. CITIS services have some security problems like authentication problem and repudiation problem, when they are implemented using the Internet. To solve these problems, CITIS needs a user certificate system which can allow to access important information only to qualified users. This paper proposed a PKI(Public Key Infrastructure) Certificate Authority for CITIS, and created a real User Certificate System which can be adjusted to circumstances of real CITIS.
