Analytical modelling in Dynamo
BIM is applied as modern database for civil
engineering. Its recent development allows to preserve
both structure geometrical and analytical information. The
analytical model described in the paper is derived directly
from BIM model of a structure automatically but in most
cases it requires manual improvements before being sent
to FEM software. Dynamo visual programming language
was used to handle the analytical data. Authors developed
a program which corrects faulty analytical model obtained
from BIM geometry, thus providing better automation for
preparing FEM model. Program logic is explained and test
cases shown
JPEG steganography with particle swarm optimization accelerated by AVX
Digital steganography aims at hiding secret messages in digital data transmitted over insecure channels. The JPEG format is prevalent in digital communication, and images are often used as cover objects in digital steganography. Optimization methods can improve the properties of images with embedded secret but introduce additional computational complexity to their processing. AVX instructions available in modern CPUs are, in this work, used to accelerate data parallel operations that are part of image steganography with advanced optimizations.Web of Science328art. no. e544
Exploratory topic modeling with distributional semantics
As we continue to collect and store textual data in a multitude of domains,
we are regularly confronted with material whose largely unknown thematic
structure we want to uncover. With unsupervised, exploratory analysis, no prior
knowledge about the content is required and highly open-ended tasks can be
supported. In the past few years, probabilistic topic modeling has emerged as a
popular approach to this problem. Nevertheless, the representation of the
latent topics as aggregations of semi-coherent terms limits their
interpretability and level of detail.
This paper presents an alternative approach to topic modeling that maps
topics as a network for exploration, based on distributional semantics using
learned word vectors. From the granular level of terms and their semantic
similarity relations global topic structures emerge as clustered regions and
gradients of concepts. Moreover, the paper discusses the visual interactive
representation of the topic map, which plays an important role in supporting
its exploration.Comment: Conference: The Fourteenth International Symposium on Intelligent
