Reduced-reference (RR) image quality assessment (IQA) metrics evaluate the quality of a distorted (or degraded) image by using some, not all, information of the original (reference) image. In this paper, we propose a novel ...
Aims to examine the rôles of libraries and their development. Their part in fostering
and supporting intellectuals in contemporary societies is discussed with particular
emphasis on free access to information and freedom ...

T. Kubiak raised in 1992 a question about Hausdorffness and compactness in L-topology. It is negatively solved in the present paper by constructing certain L-Hausdorffness and L-compactness axioms. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science ...

Recently, relevance feedback (RF) in content-based image retrieval (CBIR) has been implemented as an online binary classifier to separate the positive samples from the negative samples, where both sets of samples are labeled ...

Cache performance is strongly influenced by the
type of locality embodied in programs. In particular, multimedia
programs handling images and videos are characterized
by a bidimensional spatial locality, which is not ...
Support vector machines (SVMs), which were originally designed for binary classifications, are an excellent tool for machine learning. For the multiclass classifications, they are usually converted into binary ones before ...
Given the significant role attributed to community organisations by many social
capital scholars, it is appropriate to investigate the dynamics of that process. In particular,
Woolcott & Narayan (2001) have suggested ...
Generally, the disorders in a neural network diagnosis model are assumed independent each other. In this paper, we propose a neural network model for diagnostic problem solving where the disorder independence assumption ...

Face recognition by sketches in photos remains a challenging task. Unlike the existing sketch-photo recognition methods, which convert a photo into sketch and then perform the sketch-photo recognition through sketch-sketch ...
We introduce the concepts of interior, boundary, subspace, connected space, first- and second-countable spaces, and establish some of their properties in fuzzifying topology.
We point out a new approach for fuzzy topology with fuzzy logic, and discuss the neighborhood structure of a point and the convergence of nets and filters in this new framework.

With the rapid growth of networked data communications in size and complexity, network administrators today are facing more challenges to protect their networked computers and devices from all kinds of attacks. This paper ...

A complete set of frequent itemsets can get undesirably large due to redundancy when the minimum support threshold is low or when the database is dense. Several concise representations have been previously proposed to ...
A new fuzzy modeling based on fuzzy linear fractional transformations model is introduced. This new representation is shown to be a flexible tool for handling complicated nonlinear models. Particularly, the new fuzzy model ...
In this paper, we discuss the problem of feature selection and the importance of using mutual information in evaluating the discrimination ability of feature subsets between class labels. Because of the difficulties ...

The paper aims to find out what users expect from a news aggregator service, and how the current and available news aggregator services compare to each other in terms of their features and usability from users' perspectives. ...

In this article, we introduce a special novel multistate network that permits multiresource to be transmitted from the source node to multiple targets simultaneously without satisfying the flow conservation law. This network ...
