    Personalized Fuzzy Text Search Using Interest Prediction and Word Vectorization

    Full text link
    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

    For the Semantic Web point of view, computers must have access to structured collections of information and sets of inference rules that they can use to conduct automated reasoning. Adding logic to the Web, the means to use rules to make inferences, choose courses of action and answer questions, is the actual task for the distributed IT community. The real power of Intelligent Web will be realized when people create many programs that collect Web content from diverse sources, process the information and exchange the results with other programs. The first part of this paper is an introductory of Semantic Web properties, and summarises agent characteristics and their actual importance in digital economy. The second part presents the predictability of a multiagent system used in a learning process for a control problem.Semantic Web, agents, fuzzy knowledge, evolutionary computing

    A novel Big Data analytics and intelligent technique to predict driver's intent

    Modern age offers a great potential for automatically predicting the driver's intent through the increasing miniaturization of computing technologies, rapid advancements in communication technologies and continuous connectivity of heterogeneous smart objects. Inside the cabin and engine of modern cars, dedicated computer systems need to possess the ability to exploit the wealth of information generated by heterogeneous data sources with different contextual and conceptual representations. Processing and utilizing this diverse and voluminous data, involves many challenges concerning the design of the computational technique used to perform this task. In this paper, we investigate the various data sources available in the car and the surrounding environment, which can be utilized as inputs in order to predict driver's intent and behavior. As part of investigating these potential data sources, we conducted experiments on e-calendars for a large number of employees, and have reviewed a number of available geo referencing systems. Through the results of a statistical analysis and by computing location recognition accuracy results, we explored in detail the potential utilization of calendar location data to detect the driver's intentions. In order to exploit the numerous diverse data inputs available in modern vehicles, we investigate the suitability of different Computational Intelligence (CI) techniques, and propose a novel fuzzy computational modelling methodology. Finally, we outline the impact of applying advanced CI and Big Data analytics techniques in modern vehicles on the driver and society in general, and discuss ethical and legal issues arising from the deployment of intelligent self-learning cars

    Big Data has significant impact in developing functional smart cities and supporting modern societies. In this paper, we investigate the importance of Big Data in modern life and economy, and discuss challenges arising from Big Data utilization. Different computational intelligence techniques have been considered as tools for Big Data analytics. We also explore the powerful combination of Big Data and Computational Intelligence (CI) and identify a number of areas, where novel applications in real world smart city problems can be developed by utilizing these powerful tools and techniques. We present a case study for intelligent transportation in the context of a smart city, and a novel data modelling methodology based on a biologically inspired universal generative modelling approach called Hierarchical Spatial-Temporal State Machine (HSTSM). We further discuss various implications of policy, protection, valuation and commercialization related to Big Data, its applications and deployment

    Personalized government online services with recommendation techniques

    Full text link
    University of Technology, Sydney. Faculty of Information Technology.With the integration of information from different government agencies, a vast resource of information and services may be gathered in one portal. Many businesses have difficulty locating the required information and services. In such a situation of vast information overload, one of the difficulties facing governments is how to provide businesses with information specific to their needs, rather than an undifferentiated mass of information. One way to do this is through the development of personalized government online services. Indeed, the recent Accenture e-government study indicates that personalization techniques in e-government are beginning to emerge. However, existing personalization with recommendation techniques focuses on text document retrieval and e-commerce product recommendation domain. Personalization and recommendation applications in e-government have paid relatively little research attention. Many mechanisms have been developed to deliver only relevant information to web users and prevent information overload. The most popular recent developments in the e- commerce domain are the user-preference based personalization and recommendation techniques. The existing techniques have a major drawback: they are difficulty to generate recommendation on one-and-only items, because most of them do not understand the item’s semantic features and attributes. Therefore, this study aims to: (1) propose a novel approach, semantic product relevance model and its attendant personalized recommendation technique, to handle the one-and-only item recommendation problem; (2) develop a recommender system prototype, called Smart Trade Exhibition Finder, to tailor the relevant trade exhibition information to each particular business user, and to assist export business selecting the right trade exhibitions for market promotion. Smart Trade Exhibition Finder may reduce significantly the time, cost and risk faced by exporters in selecting, entering and developing international markets. In particular, the proposed approach can be used to overcome the drawback of existing recommendation techniques and enable recommender systems to work within a much wider range of problems which cannot currently be handled. The outcome of this study will solve the rating data lacking and new item problem, and significantly improve the performance compared to existing recommendation techniques
