Extroverts Tweet Differently from Introverts in Weibo
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:

Platform-centric Modular Service Architecture Design KIBS-oriented Based on Front-Back Stage Decoupling
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
Dynamic 3D shape measurement based on the phase-shifting moir\'e algorithm
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
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
Service-dominant logic for exploring modular business service system
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
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
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
