Personalized Fuzzy Text Search Using Interest Prediction and Word Vectorization
In this paper we study the personalized text search problem. The keyword
based search method in conventional algorithms has a low efficiency in
understanding users' intention since the semantic meaning, user profile, user
interests are not always considered. Firstly, we propose a novel text search
algorithm using a inverse filtering mechanism that is very efficient for label
based item search. Secondly, we adopt the Bayesian network to implement the
user interest prediction for an improved personalized search. According to user
input, it searches the related items using keyword information, predicted user
interest. Thirdly, the word vectorization is used to discover potential targets
according to the semantic meaning. Experimental results show that the proposed
search engine has an improved efficiency and accuracy and it can operate on
embedded devices with very limited computational resources
AsterixDB: A Scalable, Open Source BDMS
AsterixDB is a new, full-function BDMS (Big Data Management System) with a
feature set that distinguishes it from other platforms in today's open source
Big Data ecosystem. Its features make it well-suited to applications like web
data warehousing, social data storage and analysis, and other use cases related
to Big Data. AsterixDB has a flexible NoSQL style data model; a query language
that supports a wide range of queries; a scalable runtime; partitioned,
LSM-based data storage and indexing (including B+-tree, R-tree, and text
indexes); support for external as well as natively stored data; a rich set of
built-in types; support for fuzzy, spatial, and temporal types and queries; a
built-in notion of data feeds for ingestion of data; and transaction support
akin to that of a NoSQL store.
Development of AsterixDB began in 2009 and led to a mid-2013 initial open
source release. This paper is the first complete description of the resulting
open source AsterixDB system. Covered herein are the system's data model, its
query language, and its software architecture. Also included are a summary of
the current status of the project and a first glimpse into how AsterixDB
performs when compared to alternative technologies, including a parallel
relational DBMS, a popular NoSQL store, and a popular Hadoop-based SQL data
analytics platform, for things that both technologies can do. Also included is
a brief description of some initial trials that the system has undergone and
the lessons learned (and plans laid) based on those early "customer"
engagements
A Review on the Application of Natural Computing in Environmental Informatics
Natural computing offers new opportunities to understand, model and analyze
the complexity of the physical and human-created environment. This paper
examines the application of natural computing in environmental informatics, by
investigating related work in this research field. Various nature-inspired
techniques are presented, which have been employed to solve different relevant
problems. Advantages and disadvantages of these techniques are discussed,
together with analysis of how natural computing is generally used in
environmental research.Comment: Proc. of EnviroInfo 201
