In conjunction with psychological stress, physiological indicators such as heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) are frequently employed. This study uses a substitute for heart rate variability (HRV) known as short-term pulse rate variability (PRV) to evaluate emotional changes. We examined sixteen college students using a low-cost photoplethysmograph and obtained a short-term PRV…

This paper extends the idea of creating a Quantum Machine Learning classifier and applying it to real weather data from the weather station behind the Pa Sak Jonlasit Dam. A systematic study of classical features and optimizers with different iterations of parametrized circuits is presented. The study of the weather behind the dam is based…

The Activity and Event Network (AEN) is a new dynamic knowledge graph that models different network entities and the relationships between them. The graph is generated by processing various network security logs, such as network packets, system logs, and intrusion detection alerts, which allows the graph to capture security-relevant activity and events in the network.…

Sleep stage performs a vital role in people’s daily lives in the detection of sleep-related diseases. Conventional automated sleep stage classifier models are not efficient due to the complexity linked to the design of mathematical models and extraction of hand-engineering features. Further, quick oscillations amongst sleep stages frequently lead to indistinct feature extraction, which might…

Aging is considered to be a complex process in almost every species’ life, which can be studied at a variety of levels of abstraction as well as in different organs. Not surprisingly, biometric characteristics from facial images play a significant role in predicting human’s age. Specifically, automatic age estimation in real-time situation has begun to…

Owing to technological development, the internet has become the world’s largest platform where an unaccountable amount of e-news information is freely available to use. Most of the time, e-newspaper readers have to examine the massive collection of e-news articles to locate necessary information relevant to them. Massive semi-structured and unstructured texts usually mislead the readers…

In current societies, web application systems take central roles in computer systems. Thus, web client programming using JavaScript has increased values to add dynamic features and functions in web pages by well working with HTML and CSS. In this paper, as a new type of exercise problem for its self-study, we propose a code modification…

This paper builds on the realization that since mobile devices have become a common tool for researchers to collect, process, and analyze large quantities of data, we are now entering a generation where the creation of solutions to difficult real-world problems will mostly come in the form of mobile device apps. One such relevant real-life…

Building detection in aerial or satellite imagery is one of the most challenging tasks due to the variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and textures of man-made objects. To this end, in this paper, we propose a novel approach to extracting buildings in high-resolution images based on prior knowledge of the shadow position. Firstly, the image…

The leading place among diseases of the musculoskeletal system is occupied by various feet deformations. Clinical movement analysis and posturological examination are required to objectively assess the distribution for load caused by the weight of human body on the feet and its locomotion effect. In normal conditions, the foot is exposed to elastic deformations. When…

An enduring vision of Artificial Intelligence is to build robots that can recognize and learn the visual world and who can speak about it in natural language. Automatic image description generation is a demanding problem in Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing. The applications of image description generation systems are in biomedicine, military, commerce, digital…

This work proposes a new unsupervised learning approach to detect and locate the risks “abnormal event” in video scenes using Faster R-CNN and Bidirectional LSTM autoencoder. The approach proposed in this work is carried out in two steps: In the first step, we used a bidirectional LSTM autoencoder to detect the frames containing risks. In…

The Japanese writing system is unique due to the number of characters employed and the methods used to write words. It consists of three different ’alphabets’, which may result in the methods used to process Latin script not being sufficient to obtain satisfactory results when attempting to apply them to a recognition of the Japanese…

In the last decade, South Africa has attracted and attained more investment by means of the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REI4P), which is, a structured invitation to Independent Power Producers (IPPs) to submit a bid to generate and supply power to the electrical grid. In spite of REI4P’s undeniable triumph, a much-discussed…

Central authorities have registered economic transactions based on trust since the dawn of time. With the advent of paper, methods for documenting transactions and records became more difficult and detailed. With the widespread use of computers in recent years, digital recording has made record keeping easier and since then every technical advancement has made data…

Scientists succeeded in implementing conventional public switch telephone network (PSTN) into internet protocol by launching H.323 IP telephony. The irrelevant and unknown captions in H.323, computer scientists have replaced H.323 by Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for Voice-over-IP (VoIP). However, the security of voice communication over IP is still a major concern. Besides, security and performance…

Internet addiction (IA) has adverse effects on psychophysiological responses, interpersonal relationships, and academic and occupational performance. IA detection has received increasing attention. Although questionnaires enable long-term assessment (over 6 months) and physiological measurements to aid the short-term evaluation (over 2 min) of IA, the lack of algorithms results in an inability to detect IA in…

Real-world applications modelled by time-dependent dynamical systems with specific properties such as long-range dependence or self-similarity are usually described by fractional Brownian motion. The investigation of the qualitative behaviour of its realisations is an important topic. For this purpose, efficient mappings from realisations of the dynamical system, i.e., time series, to a set of scalar-valued…

The study aims to assess the machine learning techniques in predicting students’ associated factors that affect their academic performance. The study sample consisted of 5084 middle and high school students between the ages of 10 and 17, attending public and UNRWA schools in the West Bank. The ‘Health Behaviors School Children’ questionnaire for the 2013-2014…

Identification of Kamphaeng Saen beef cattle is important of the registration and traceability purposes. For a traditional identification methods, Hot Branding, Freeze Branding, Paint Branding, and RFID Systems can be replaced by genius human.

We propose a novel framework exploiting domain-aware aspect similarity for solving the multi- source cross-domain sentiment classification problem under the constraint of little labeled data. Existing works mainly focus on identifying the common sentiment features from all domains with weighting based on the coarse-grained domain similarity. We argue that it might not provide an accurate…

In recent days, the fast growth of populations leading to an increase in medically complicated cases, especially fast spread viral cases around the world. These phenomena increased demand on auto-diagnose systems to speed up the diagnosis process and reduce human contacts, especially for the COVID-19 pandemic using deep learning (DL).
