Hybrid fuzzy multi-objective particle swarm optimization for taxonomy extraction
Ontology learning refers to an automatic extraction of ontology to produce the ontology learning layer cake which consists of five kinds of output: terms, concepts, taxonomy relations, non-taxonomy relations and axioms. Term extraction is a prerequisite for all aspects of ontology learning. It is the automatic mining of complete terms from the input document. Another important part of ontology is taxonomy, or the hierarchy of concepts. It presents a tree view of the ontology and shows the inheritance between subconcepts and superconcepts. In this research, two methods were proposed for improving the performance of the extraction result. The first method uses particle swarm optimization in order to optimize the weights of features. The advantage of particle swarm optimization is that it can calculate and adjust the weight of each feature according to the appropriate value, and here it is used to improve the performance of term and taxonomy extraction. The second method uses a hybrid technique that uses multi-objective particle swarm optimization and fuzzy systems that ensures that the membership functions and fuzzy system rule sets are optimized. The advantage of using a fuzzy system is that the imprecise and uncertain values of feature weights can be tolerated during the extraction process. This method is used to improve the performance of taxonomy extraction. In the term extraction experiment, five extracted features were used for each term from the document. These features were represented by feature vectors consisting of domain relevance, domain consensus, term cohesion, first occurrence and length of noun phrase. For taxonomy extraction, matching Hearst lexico-syntactic patterns in documents and the web, and hypernym information form WordNet were used as the features that represent each pair of terms from the texts. These two proposed methods are evaluated using a dataset that contains documents about tourism. For term extraction, the proposed method is compared with benchmark algorithms such as Term Frequency Inverse Document Frequency, Weirdness, Glossary Extraction and Term Extractor, using the precision performance evaluation measurement. For taxonomy extraction, the proposed methods are compared with benchmark methods of Feature-based and weighting by Support Vector Machine using the f-measure, precision and recall performance evaluation measurements. For the first method, the experiment results concluded that implementing particle swarm optimization in order to optimize the feature weights in terms and taxonomy extraction leads to improved accuracy of extraction result compared to the benchmark algorithms. For the second method, the results concluded that the hybrid technique that uses multi-objective particle swarm optimization and fuzzy systems leads to improved performance of taxonomy extraction results when compared to the benchmark methods, while adjusting the fuzzy membership function and keeping the number of fuzzy rules to a minimum number with a high degree of accuracy

Supervised Design-Space Exploration
Low-cost Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) electronics have revolutionized daily life and expanded the role of computation in science and engineering. Meanwhile, process-technology scaling has changed VLSI design to an exploration process that strives for the optimal balance among multiple objectives, such as power, performance, and area, i.e. multi-objective Pareto-set optimization. Besides, modern VLSI design has shifted to synthesis-centric methodologies in order to boost the design productivity, which leads to better design quality given limited time and resources. However, current decade-old synthesis-centric design methodologies suffer from: (i) long synthesis tool runtime, (ii) elusive optimal setting of many synthesis knobs, (iii) limitation to one design implementation per synthesis run, and (iv) limited capability of digesting only component-level designs as opposed to holistic system-wide synthesis. These challenges make Design Space Exploration (DSE) with synthesis tools a daunting task for both novice and experienced VLSI designers, thus stagnating the development of more powerful (i.e. more complex) computer systems.
To address these challenges, I propose Supervised Design-Space Exploration (SDSE), an abstraction layer between a designer and a synthesis tool, aiming to autonomously supervise synthesis jobs for DSE. For system-level exploration, SDSE can approximate a system Pareto set given limited information: only lightweight component characterization is required, yet the necessary component synthesis jobs are discovered on-the-fly in order to compose the system Pareto set. For component-level exploration, SDSE can approximate a component Pareto set by iteratively refining the approximation with promising knob settings, guided by synthesis-result estimation with machine-learning models. Combined, SDSE has been applied with the three major synthesis stages, namely high-level, logic, and physical synthesis, to the design of heterogeneous accelerator cores as well as high-performance processor cores. In particular, SDSE has been successfully integrated into the IBM Synthesis Tuning System, yielding 20% better circuit performance than the original system on the design of a 22nm server processor that is currently in production.
Looking ahead, SDSE can be applied to other VLSI designs beyond the accelerator and the programmable cores. Moreover, SDSE opens several research avenues for: (i) new development and deployment platforms of synthesis tools, (ii) large-scale collaborative design engineering, and (iii) new computer-aided design approaches for new classes of systems beyond VLSI chips
WiFi-Based Human Activity Recognition Using Attention-Based BiLSTM
Recently, significant efforts have been made to explore human activity recognition (HAR) techniques that use information gathered by existing indoor wireless infrastructures through WiFi signals without demanding the monitored subject to carry a dedicated device. The key intuition is that different activities introduce different multi-paths in WiFi signals and generate different patterns in the time series of channel state information (CSI). In this paper, we propose and evaluate a full pipeline for a CSI-based human activity recognition framework for 12 activities in three different spatial environments using two deep learning models: ABiLSTM and CNN-ABiLSTM. Evaluation experiments have demonstrated that the proposed models outperform state-of-the-art models. Also, the experiments show that the proposed models can be applied to other environments with different configurations, albeit with some caveats. The proposed ABiLSTM model achieves an overall accuracy of 94.03%, 91.96%, and 92.59% across the 3 target environments. While the proposed CNN-ABiLSTM model reaches an accuracy of 98.54%, 94.25% and 95.09% across those same environments
