    Being dominant factors driving the human actions, personalities can be excellent indicators in predicting the offline and online behavior of different individuals. However, because of the great expense and inevitable subjectivity in questionnaires and surveys, it is challenging for conventional studies to explore the connection between personality and behavior and gain insights in the context of large amount individuals. Considering the more and more important role of the online social media in daily communications, we argue that the footprint of massive individuals, like tweets in Weibo, can be the inspiring proxy to infer the personality and further understand its functions in shaping the online human behavior. In this study, a map from self-reports of personalities to online profiles of 293 active users in Weibo is established to train a competent machine learning model, which then successfully identifies over 7,000 users as extroverts or introverts. Systematical comparisons from perspectives of tempo-spatial patterns, online activities, emotion expressions and attitudes to virtual honor surprisingly disclose that the extrovert indeed behaves differently from the introvert in Weibo. Our findings provide solid evidence to justify the methodology of employing machine learning to objectively study personalities of massive individuals and shed lights on applications of probing personalities and corresponding behaviors solely through online profiles.Comment: Datasets of this study can be freely downloaded through: https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.4765150.v

    Balancing customization and standardization in knowledge intensive business services is the dilemma issue of the successful trade-off between efficiency and cost. This paper develops a modular service platform architecture for KIBS firms who are thinking various dynamic relationships containing niche market strategies, platform-centric tactics and operational means of core capabilities matching in the context of service innovation. Two-dimension front-back stage decoupling views on modular service architecture are identified. is the first one is the object dimension in the front stage for splitting abstract and virtual service requirements, the other one is the delivery dimension in the back stage for deploying specific service organization and visual service procedures. This theoretical framework is proposed to help further studies on service modularization design in KIBS

    In order to increase the efficiency of phase retrieval,Wang proposed a high-speed moire phase retrieval method.But it is used only to measure the tiny object. In view of the limitation of Wang method,we proposed a dynamic three-dimensional (3D) measurement based on the phase-shifting moire algorithm.First, four sinusoidal fringe patterns with a pi/2 phase-shift are projected on the reference plane and acquired four deformed fringe patterns of the reference plane in advance. Then only single-shot deformed fringe pattern of the tested object is captured in measurement process.Four moire fringe patterns can be obtained by numerical multiplication between the the AC component of the object pattern and the AC components of the reference patterns respectively. The four low-frequency components corresponding to the moire fringe patterns are calculated by the complex encoding FT (Fourier transform) ,spectrum filtering and inverse FT.Thus the wrapped phase of the object can be determined in the tangent form from the four phase-shifting moire fringe patterns using the four-step phase shifting algorithm.The continuous phase distribution can be obtained by the conventional unwrapping algorithm. Finally, experiments were conducted to prove the validity and feasibility of the proposed method. The results are analyzed and compared with those of Wang method, demonstrating that our method not only can expand the measurement scope, but also can improve accuracy.Comment: 14 pages,5 figures. ams.or

    Extended Depth-range Dual-wavelength Interferometry Based on Iterative Two-step Temporal Phase-unwrapping

    Full text link
    Phase retrieval is one of the most challenging processes in many interferometry techniques. To promote the phase retrieval, Xu et. al [X. Xu, Y. Wang, Y. Xu, W. Jin. 2016] proposed a method based on dual-wavelength interferometry. However, the phase-difference brings large noise due to its low sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Beside, special phase shifts are required in Xu's method. In the light of these problems, an extended depth-range dual-wavelength phase-shifting interferometry is proposed. Firstly, the least squares algorithm is utilized to retrieve the single-wavelength phase from a sequence of N-frame simultaneous phase-shifting dual-wavelength interferograms (SPSDWI) with random phase shifts. Then the phase-difference and phase-sum are calculated from the wrapped phases of single wavelength, and the iterative two-step temporal phase-unwrapping is introduced to unwrap the phase-sum, which can extend the depth-range and improve the sensitivity. Finally, the height of objects is achieved. Simulated experiments are conducted to demonstrate the superb precision and overall performance of the proposed method.Comment: 21 pages, 19 figure

    Investigating the management of the three dimensions of modular business service system from the perspective of the service-dominant (S-D) logic. An integrated approach with an abductive research process in theory building was conducted through case study. The results show that ten foundational premises of S-D logic, especially service -focused, customer-oriented, and rational views can be applied in defining and managing the modular business service system constructed by service modularization

    One shot profilometry using iterative two-step temporal phase-unwrapping

    Full text link
    This paper reviews two techniques that have been recently published for 3D profilometry and proposes one shot profilometry using iterative two-step temporal phase-unwrapping by combining the composite fringe projection and the iterative two-step temporal phase unwrapping algorithm. In temporal phase unwrapping, many images with different frequency fringe pattern are needed to project which would take much time. In order to solve this problem, Ochoa proposed a phase unwrapping algorithm based on phase partitions using a composite fringe, which only needs projecting one composite fringe pattern with four kinds of frequency information to complete the process of 3D profilometry. However, we found that the fringe order determined through the construction of phase partitions tended to be imprecise. Recently, we proposed an iterative two-step temporal phase unwrapping algorithm, which can achieve high sensitivity and high precision shape measurement. But it needs multiple frames of fringe images which would take much time. In order to take into account both the speed and accuracy of 3D shape measurement, we get a new, and more accurate unwrapping method based on composite fringe pattern by combining these two techniques. This method not only retains the speed advantage of Ochoa's algorithm, but also greatly improves its measurement accuracy. Finally, the experimental evaluation is conducted to prove the validity of the proposed method, and the experimental results show that this method is feasible.Comment: 14 pages, 15 figure

    Improved method for phase wraps reduction in profilometry

    Full text link
    In order to completely eliminate, or greatly reduce the number of phase wraps in 2D wrapped phase map, Gdeisat et al. proposed an algorithm, which uses shifting the spectrum towards the origin. But the spectrum can be shifted only by an integer number, meaning that the phase wraps reduction is often not optimal. In addition, Gdeisat's method will take much time to make the Fourier transform, inverse Fourier transform, select and shift the spectral components. In view of the above problems, we proposed an improved method for phase wraps elimination or reduction. First, the wrapped phase map is padded with zeros, the carrier frequency of the projected fringe is determined by high resolution, which can be used as the moving distance of the spectrum. And then realize frequency shift in spatial domain. So it not only can enable the spectrum to be shifted by a rational number when the carrier frequency is not an integer number, but also reduce the execution time. Finally, the experimental results demonstrated that the proposed method is feasible.Comment: 16 pages, 15 figures, 1 table. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1604.0723
