Integration of a big data emerging on large sparse simulation and its application on green computing platform

The process of analyzing large data and verifying a big data set are a challenge for understanding the fundamental concept behind it. Many big data analysis techniques suffer from the poor scalability, variation inequality, instability, lower convergence, and weak accuracy of the large-scale numerical algorithms. Due to these limitations, a wider opportunity for numerical analysts to develop the efficiency and novel parallel algorithms has emerged. Big data analytics plays an important role in the field of sciences and engineering for extracting patterns, trends, actionable information from large sets of data and improving strategies for making a decision. A large data set consists of a large-scale data collection via sensor network, transformation from signal to digital images, high resolution of a sensing system, industry forecasts, existing customer records to predict trends and prepare for new demand. This paper proposes three types of big data analytics in accordance to the analytics requirement involving a large-scale numerical simulation and mathematical modeling for solving a complex problem. First is a big data analytics for theory and fundamental of nanotechnology numerical simulation. Second, big data analytics for enhancing the digital images in 3D visualization, performance analysis of embedded system based on the large sparse data sets generated by the device. Lastly, extraction of patterns from the electroencephalogram (EEG) data set for detecting the horizontal-vertical eye movements. Thus, the process of examining a big data analytics is to investigate the behavior of hidden patterns, unknown correlations, identify anomalies, and discover structure inside unstructured data and extracting the essence, trend prediction, multi-dimensional visualization and real-time observation using the mathematical model. Parallel algorithms, mesh generation, domain-function decomposition approaches, inter-node communication design, mapping the subdomain, numerical analysis and parallel performance evaluations (PPE) are the processes of the big data analytics implementation. The superior of parallel numerical methods such as AGE, Brian and IADE were proven for solving a large sparse model on green computing by utilizing the obsolete computers, the old generation servers and outdated hardware, a distributed virtual memory and multi-processors. The integration of low-cost communication of message passing software and green computing platform is capable of increasing the PPE up to 60% when compared to the limited memory of a single processor. As a conclusion, large-scale numerical algorithms with great performance in scalability, equality, stability, convergence, and accuracy are important features in analyzing big data simulation

Realizing Video Analytic Service in the Fog-Based Infrastructure-Less Environments

Deep learning has unleashed the great potential in many fields and now is the most significant facilitator for video analytics owing to its capability to providing more intelligent services in a complex scenario. Meanwhile, the emergence of fog computing has brought unprecedented opportunities to provision intelligence services in infrastructure-less environments like remote national parks and rural farms. However, most of the deep learning algorithms are computationally intensive and impossible to be executed in such environments due to the needed supports from the cloud. In this paper, we develop a video analytic framework, which is tailored particularly for the fog devices to realize video analytic service in a rapid manner. Also, the convolution neural networks are used as the core processing unit in the framework to facilitate the image analysing process

Two Approaches for Text Segmentation in Web Images

There is a significant need to recognise the text in images on web pages, both for effective indexing and for presentation by non-visual means (e.g., audio). This paper presents and compares two novel methods for the segmentation of characters for subsequent extraction and recognition. The novelty of both approaches is the combination of (different in each case) topological features of characters with an anthropocentric perspective of colour perception— in preference to RGB space analysis. Both approaches enable the extraction of text in complex situations such as in the presence of varying colour and texture (characters and background)

Scanning electron microscopy image representativeness: morphological data on nanoparticles.

A sample of a nanomaterial contains a distribution of nanoparticles of various shapes and/or sizes. A scanning electron microscopy image of such a sample often captures only a fragment of the morphological variety present in the sample. In order to quantitatively analyse the sample using scanning electron microscope digital images, and, in particular, to derive numerical representations of the sample morphology, image content has to be assessed. In this work, we present a framework for extracting morphological information contained in scanning electron microscopy images using computer vision algorithms, and for converting them into numerical particle descriptors. We explore the concept of image representativeness and provide a set of protocols for selecting optimal scanning electron microscopy images as well as determining the smallest representative image set for each of the morphological features. We demonstrate the practical aspects of our methodology by investigating tricalcium phosphate, Ca3 (PO4 )2 , and calcium hydroxyphosphate, Ca5 (PO4 )3 (OH), both naturally occurring minerals with a wide range of biomedical applications

Metadata Augmentation for Semantic- and Context- Based Retrieval of Digital Cultural Objects

Cultural objects are increasingly stored and generated in digital form, yet effective methods for their indexing and retrieval still remain an open area of research. The main problem arises from the disconnection between the content-based indexing approach used by computer scientists and the description-based approach used by information scientists. There is also a lack of representational schemes that allow the alignment of the semantics and context with keywords and low-level features that can be automatically extracted from the content of these cultural objects. This paper presents an integrated approach to address these problems, taking advantage of both computer science and information science approaches. The focus is on the rationale and conceptual design of the system and its various components. In particular, we discuss techniques for augmenting commonly used metadata with visual features and domain knowledge to generate high-level abstract metadata which in turn can be used for semantic and context-based indexing and retrieval. We use a sample collection of Vietnamese traditional woodcuts to demonstrate the usefulness of this approach
