The scope for ICTs in economic development and poverty reduction has expanded. Under the Digital Malaysia initiative the ICT industries which are crowd sourcing industry has been identified as a potential industry to help increase income. The major component in crowd sourcing industry is the crowd sourcing platform. In ensuring the credibility and reliability of Malaysian platforms and also local...
Crowdsourcing is view as major changes in current economy as it has revolutionary effects on organizations. Unlike previous outsourcing trends that practices closed inter-organizational relationships subject to the long-term legal contract, these new crowdsourcing practices take place in an open and virtual context, characterized with small and shortterm deals. Crowdsourcing has been recognized as...
Microsourcing is an emerging outsourcing practice by organization to an undefined (and generally large) network of people in a form of an open call. It is considered as a new entrepreneurial evolution in digital economy value creation. Because of the challenges and competition faces by organization nowadays, organization approved the need to provide services with higher added value and less cost....
Micro sourcing is the act of outsourcing small or micro task to the crowd. During recent years, commercial micro sourcing has become a successful business model. Micro sourcing initiative in Malaysia is still nascent. The implementation is targeted to B40 group; those with low income household. This study is attempted to identify the critical success factor of micro sourcing initiative on the industry...
Malaysia is fostering a digital ecosystem through several initiatives with intention to create itself as developed digital economy country as well as uplifting household income of each family by 2020. Micro sourcing is one of the industries that can strongly support the country into this direction which it able to facilitate income generation among the poor. The poor which resides at the bottom 40...
Micro sourcing to generate income is an economic initiative that offers opportunities to people outside the traditional workforce and those with low household income level. Under Digital Malaysia, micro sourcing industry has been identified as a potential industry to uplift the income of the population in the bottom 40 percent household income (B40). The B40 in Malaysia is defined as household income...
This paper presents works involved in developing a three-dimensional lips in a visual speech synthesis system. Several works have been done in similar areas, but a systematic approach of identifying and determining appropriate number of vertices in the lips model were not explained thoroughly. Instead of the development technique, this paper is also presents an experimental set up designed to test...
The ability to acquire, identify and represent the knowledge that a human expert has about a particular domain is a powerful key method in the development of a knowledge-based computer system. This paper demonstrates a methodology for acquiring and analyzing data based on semi-structured interview responses conducted upon human experts. Human experts are asked to determine the acceptability of an...
This paper presents a preliminary study on conventional Jaccard Distance performance in recognizing shapes with and without pre processing tasks. This study also identified the pre processing tasks that should be conducted to improve recognition performance. Jaccard Distance is performed by measuring the asymmetric information on binary variable and the comparison between vectors component. It compared...
A big challenge in many face detection applications is how well faces can be reliably detected. An increasing number of algorithms have been published and many such face detectors have been made publicly available in the form of open source applications, such as the OpenCV classifiers. In this work, we attempt to compare four frontal face OpenCV classifiers and determine the most fit for adoption...
Much research on the rain harvesting has been undertaken by experts such as architects and engineers. The emphases are on the required materials, installation of appropriate equipments, techniques of capturing rain water and other issues that lead to the environmental studies. Computers are only for certain calculations or simulations using common software packages. The lack of comprehensive use on...
