In this study, we developed and evaluated an automatic abstractive summarization algorithm in Japanese using a neural network. We used a sequence-to-sequence encoder-decoder model for practical purposes. The encoder obtained a feature-based input vector of sentences using the bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) technique. A transformer-based decoder returned the summary sentence from the output…

The world is witnessing unprecedented advancements in ICT (Information & Communication Technology) related fields. These advancements are further boosted with the emergence of big data. It goes without saying that big data requires two major operations: storage and processing. The latter is usually provided through High-Performance Computing (HPC) which is delivered through two main venues:…

With the features of the application system make it easier for users to transact, make the user feel comfortable in using the application system. The problem is that the intensity of application usage decreases judging by the application rating given by the user each time they perform a transaction, this is because the company initially…

The adoption and diffusion of mobile applications (mobile apps) has become the base of modern activities in Africa owing to the services and values that are obtained through mobile apps innovations. More emphasis has been on the development of mobile apps whereas the adoption and diffusion process as well as their predictors are ignored or…

The technological evolution and the frequent use of the Internet as a technology within the framework of the Internet of Things and Robotics has affected various fields such as Industry 4.0, smart agriculture, smart cities, home automation and autonomous cars. These advances applied to everyday life have facilitated the implementation of new concepts to minimize…

Forest mapping by remote sensing is a hot topics in forestry. At present, many researchers focus on the research of forest type classification or tree species identification using different machine learning methods and try to improve the accuracy of classification of satellite image. However, forest type classification using deep belief network (DBN) is still limited…

Traditional networks have difficulty in meeting the technological developments and the continuous increase in the size of data to be processed. Software-Defined Network (SDN) approach has emerged as an alternative to traditional networks. SDN separates the control and data planes from each other and manages the network over the control plane with flexibility and cost…

Normalized Metered Energy Consumption (NMEC) is a solution for investors in determining the best energy-saving strategy for buildings. But on the other hand, investors need a fast and reliable evaluation results in measuring how effective the savings methods they use without wasting money. To address this issue, we selected Facebook’s latest predictive time series method…

The need to update the news at this time is very important. Journalists have responsibilities as their job. Apart from conveying the correct news to the public, they must also deliver it quickly. Journalists who are tasked as news seekers must always be updated about the latest news that is viral, therefore a journalist must…

In this article, the Grebennikov cubic spline, the Ryabenky cubic spline, and we offer the local interpolation cubic spline models are selected. The construction details of the models were given and the processes of approximating the functions were performed using selected local cubic splines. We can also say that the local interpolation cubic spline models…

Lime mortar, an age-long building material is primarily popular for its flexibility, the basis of its ability to accommodate masonry deformation, hence durability. However, lime’s characteristic delayed setting/hardening time, low mechanical strength and poor internal cohesion often characterised by volumetric changes have put its use into decline. These shortcomings have therefore relegated relevance of this…

The world has turned in the modern era to reduce peak times for electricity consumption, where the peak times cause excessive load on the electricity grid and power stations. In Egypt air conditioning loads are considered the main contributing reasons for the peak time’s problem due to presence of large unshaded glazed surfaces, which cause…
