Using spectral clustering algorithm is diffcult to find the clusters in the cases that dataset has a large difference in density and its clustering effect depends on the selection of initial centers. To overcome the shortcomings, we propose a novel spect... see more

A classical problem in computer/network reliability is that of identifying simple, regular and repetitive building blocks (motifs) which yield reliability enhancements at the system-level. Over time, this apparently simple problem has been addressed by va... see more

A set of ordered propositions describe the different intensities of a characteristic of an object, the intensities increase or decrease gradually. A basic support function is a set of truth-values of ordered propositions, it includes the determinate part ... see more

This paper deals with the synthesis of a new fuzzy controller applied to Electronic Throttle Valve (ETV) affected by an unknown input in order to enhance the rapidity and accuracy of trajectory tracking performance. Firstly, the Takagi-Sugeno (T-S) fuzzy ... see more

Unlike traditional networks, software-defined networking (SDN) are characterized by a physical separation of the control and the transfer plan. Thus, a centralized controller communicates the functions of control plan to each device via the OpenFlow Proto... see more

In this paper, a comparison of various transformation techniques, namely Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) and Discrete Walsh Hadamard Transform (DWHT) is performed in the context of their application to voiceless consonant... see more

Cell migration is a central process which happens along with multicellular organisms' development and maintenance. The process that cells move to specidic locations in particular directions has some similarities with pedestrian walking behaviour. In this ... see more

Inspired by the embedding representation in Natural Language Processing (NLP), we develop a financial embedded vector representation model to abstract the temporal characteristics of financial time series. Original financial features are discretized first... see more

The influence diagram is a probabilistic model for presenting decision problems as a directed graph. In this study, the dynamic influence diagram and the interactive dynamic influence diagram are used to model the three parties to service innovation: cust... see more
