The supervised IBP: neighbourhood preserving infinite latent feature models
We propose a probabilistic model to infer supervised latent variables in the Hamming space from observed data. Our model allows simultaneous inference of the number of binary latent variables, and their values. The latent variables preserve neighbourhood structure of the data in a sense that objects in the same semantic concept have similar latent values, and objects in different concepts have dissimilar latent values. We formulate the supervised infinite latent variable problem based on an intuitive principle of pulling objects together if they are of the same type, and pushing them apart if they are not. We then combine this principle with a flexible Indian Buffet Process prior on the latent variables. We show that the inferred supervised latent variables can be directly used to perform a nearest neighbour search for the purpose of retrieval. We introduce a new application of dynamically extending hash codes, and show how to effectively couple the structure of the hash codes with continuously growing structure of the neighbourhood preserving infinite latent feature space
Meson decay in the Fock-Tani Formalism
The Fock-Tani formalism is a first principle method to obtain effective
interactions from microscopic Hamiltonians. Usually this formalism was applied
to scattering, here we introduced it to calculate partial decay widths for
mesons.Comment: Presented at HADRON05 XI. "International Conference on Hadron

Oxygen clamps in gold nanowires
We investigate how the insertion of an oxygen atom in an atomically thin gold
nanowire can affect its rupture. We find, using ab initio total energy density
functional theory calculations, that O atoms when inserted in gold nanowires
form not only stable but also very strong bonds, in such a way that they can
extract atoms from a stable tip, serving in this way as a clamp that could be
used to pull a string of gold atoms.Comment: 4 pages; 4 figure
Glueball-glueball scattering in a constituent gluon model
In this work we use a mapping technique to derive in the context of a
constituent gluon model an effective Hamiltonian that involves explicit gluon
degrees of freedom. We study glueballs with two gluons using the Fock-Tani
formalism. In the present work we consider two possibilities for : (i)
as a pure and calculate, in the context of a quark interchange
picture, the cross-section; (ii) as a glueball where a new calculation for this
cross-section is made, in the context of the constituent gluon model, with
gluon interchange.Comment: Proceedings of the International Workshop IX Hadron Physics and VII

Challenges of Internet of Things and Big Data Integration
The Internet of Things anticipates the conjunction of physical gadgets to the
In-ternet and their access to wireless sensor data which makes it expedient to
restrain the physical world. Big Data convergence has put multifarious new
opportunities ahead of business ventures to get into a new market or enhance
their operations in the current market. considering the existing techniques and
technologies, it is probably safe to say that the best solution is to use big
data tools to provide an analytical solution to the Internet of Things. Based
on the current technology deployment and adoption trends, it is envisioned that
the Internet of Things is the technology of the future, while to-day's
real-world devices can provide real and valuable analytics, and people in the
real world use many IoT devices. Despite all the advertisements that companies
offer in connection with the Internet of Things, you as a liable consumer, have
the right to be suspicious about IoT advertise-ments. The primary question is:
What is the promise of the Internet of things con-cerning reality and what are
the prospects for the future.Comment: Proceedings of the International Conference on International
