Modelling of a complex carving surface is the most important process for digitization of art carving such as Chinese classical furniture carving, and it is difficult to be fulfilled. However, a complex 2D curve flower pattern can be easily acquired or drawn by handcraft or a drawing software. This paper presents a quick integrative 3D modeling method of complex carving surface based on a 2D cur...

Although feature modelling is a frequently used approach to the task of modelling commonality and variability within product lines, there is currently no standard modelling notation or methodology. On the assumption that the commonality/variability model will be used as a basis for architecture design, our modelling notation allows features to be augmented with behavioural detail, captured usin...

Wearable computers have the potential to act as intelligent agents in everyday life and assist the user in a variety of tasks, using context to determine how to act. Location is the most common form of context used by these agents to determine the user’s task. However, another potential use of location context is the creation of a predictive model of the user’s future movements. We present a sy...

In this paper we deal with the problem of enhancing the decision making abilities of broker agents in digital learning resources brokerage systems. Following a multi-criteria decision making approach, we provide broker agents with the means to qualitatively represent the user preferences and efficiently evaluate the proposed alternatives. Learner modelling and digital learning resources descrip...

Lifelong learning is the problem of learning multiple consecutive tasks in a sequential manner where knowledge gained from previous tasks is retained and used for future learning. It is essential towards the development of intelligent machines that can adapt to their surroundings. In this work we focus on a lifelong learning approach to generative modeling where we continuously incorporate newl...
