This paper proposes a minimally supervised method for acquiring high-level semantic relations such as causality and prevention from the Web. Our method learns linguistic patterns that express causality such as ??x gave rise to y??, and uses them to extract causal noun pairs like (global warming, malaria epidemic) from sentences like ??global warming gave rise to a new malaria epidemic??. The novelty...
We show how to compute a minimal Riccati-balanced state map and a minimal Riccati-balanced state space representation starting from an image representation of a strictly dissipative system. The result is based on an iterative procedure to solve a generalization of the Nevanlinna interpolation problem.
The problem of navigation of the student over learning objects can be solved either by creating relations between learning objects or by using metadata of learning objects stored in concepts space of the domain. Every learning object has such defined metadata in a form of relation to several concepts. Concepts space contains information about structural and dependency relations between concepts. We...
The purpose of this paper is to present systemic creative product design methods based on user's life scenarios. Based on the nature of scenario and user's needs, combining with design principles and modeling activities in creative design process, this paper presented a solution to discovery user's needs from scenarios, and transfer these needs to structures, outlined a creative design model and some...
This paper is about the new theory and modeling framework about emergency information rapid release, we defined and analyzed the connotation and extension of emergency information release, provide a hierarchical workflow-organizing operating model, upon which established a mechanism based on workflow assembly. This paper introduced a new approach-the symbol matrix and arithmetic of symbol extracting...
Supplier evaluation and selection is one of the most critical activities of purchasing management in a supply chain. On the regular basis, managers constantly evaluate quality characteristics of suppliers' products and make decisions to select preferred suppliers. Fuzzy quality data commonly exists in the reality world. Under this fuzzy environment, we propose a quality-based supplier evaluation based...
With the market competition becoming increasingly fierce, metaphor is of vital significance to design as a ubiquitous way of emotion expression. Focused on the use of metaphorical symbol in modern furniture design from the perspective of product semantics, the paper analyzed concept, classification as well as features of metaphor design. By introducing metaphorical symbols, furniture design can not...
Concept design, which is currently quite fashionable, has almost permeated all areas of design, furniture design included certainly. Based on the principle of humanity and ecologization, this paper was mainly from the point of delight-orientation and personality to discuss the concept design of the furniture, in order to bring people a sophisticated living space, meeting their spiritual demands.
This paper investigates and analysis the psychological state and the basic physiological characteristics of children and analysis the situation of children's chair in the domestic and international market; illustrate the type and the advantage and disadvantage of children's chair by mixed forms, focus on the classification of famous foreign brand of children's chair and with this as the baseline of...
The paper established valuation methods of enterprises product image assets according to earnings present value methods of intangible assets valuation methods on condition that enterprises product image assets is intangible assets, The assets valuation methods of reverse calculation of the enterprise product image overcome the shortcomings of traditional assessment ideas.
Based on the dose distribution results under the condition of vertical incident beam by finite-size Pencil Beam (fsPB) matrix model using Monte Carlo simulation, this paper introduces the means of coordinate transformation, which can transform the dose distribution from the condition of vertical incident to the arbitrary collimator rotational angel. The dose distribution results of test examples are...
This paper presents a new model to image segmentation. We represent the object boundary by a partial differential equation model that is embedded in several scalar functions. The motion of the dynamic interface is governed by a p-Laplace equation. Such level set models are flexible in handling complex topological changes and are concise in extracting object boundaries despite of deep depression. Furthermore,...
Minimization of the operational costs, flexibility of the labor force and efficiency of all processes are increasingly important issues for every warehouse. Of all processes, order picking is recognized to be the most costly activity and therefore tends to get the most attention. Key objectives in designing an order picking operation include increases in productivity, reduction of cycle time, and...
A semielliptical trench flush-mounted under a metal plane and filled with double-negative (DNG) metamaterial is considered. The primary field is an electric line source parallel to the trench and located inside the trench or in the half-space above it. The two-dimensional boundary-value problem is solved exactly in terms of infinite series of elliptic-cylinder wavefunctions. In particular, the far...
Based on the demand of material, this paper first selected the evaluating factors about choosing suppliers, and analyzed the correlation among evaluating factors. Then, by combining the merits of Analytic Network Process (ANP) and entropy right, this paper proposed a method to calculate the compound rights of factors. The new method fully takes advantage of the relationship between factors and the...
There are close relationships between traffic volume and transportation volume. The resources and basic data in the traffic volume observation station can be effectively used in calculating the transportation volume of the highway network with that of the highway section. This can help to increase the timeliness of the statistical work of the highway transportation volume and effectively avoid a lot...
Recent computational methods of wafer defect detection often rely on the difference image between an inspected image and its reference image, and highly depend on registration accuracy. In this paper, we present a novel method for defect detection in patterned wafers, based on of the inspected image from the reference image using anisotropic kernels. This method avoids registration between the inspected...
Based on the coordinate transformation theory, arbitrary prism invisibility cloaks which is composed of complex, anisotropic and inhomogeneous materials are designed, the permittivity and permeability tensors of the materials are deduced for arbitrary prism cloaks. Such cloaks should be effective at all frequencies. Numerical simulation results are given to validate the arbitrary prism invisibility...
Regional industrial system is a complex system, it has the characteristics of complex system, among which "emergency " is the most important, while whether the emergency emergerges or not depends on the self-organization degree of the system elements, therefore, in the paper, we first analyzed the structure of regional industrial complex system, knew about the composition of regional industrial...
Equipment support capability is a permanent problem at equipment support realm. Grading the equipment support capability enables better equipment support scheme. This paper applies the theories and methods of fuzzy mathematics and comprehensive evaluation. Based on fuzzy inference, its perform evaluations that are both qualitative and quantitative and contain exact and inexact factors. The paper determines...
