Applications of such technology range from military combat simulations to various civilian commercial applications. This paper presents CVE as a medium for Industrial Training and Electronic Commerce. Key-Words: Collaborative Virtual Environments, Virtual Reality, Collaboration, Java3D, VRML, Multim...

When an electronic nose (E-nose) is used to distinguish different kinds of gases, the label information of the target gas could be lost due to some fault of the operators or some other reason, although this is not expected. Another fact is that the cost of getting the labeled samples is usually higher than for unlabeled ones. In most cases, the classification accuracy of an E-nose trained using...
