In this paper a new body motion-based Human Behaviour Analysing (HBA) approach is proposed for the sake of events classification. Here, the inetersting events are as normal and abnormal behaviours in a ATM scenario. The concept of Laban Movement Analysis (LMA), which is a known human movement analysing system, is used in order to define and extract sufficient features. A two-phase probabilistic...

The Mixed Capacitated General Routing Problem (MCGRP) is defined over a mixed graph, for which some verticesmust be visited and some linksmust be traversed at least once. The problem consists of determining a set of least-cost vehicle routes that satisfy this requirement and respect the vehicle capacity. Few papers have been devoted to the MCGRP, in spite of interesting real-world applications,...

High-performance hardware designs often intersperse combinational logic freely between levelsensitive latch layers (wherein each layer is transparent during only one clock phase), rather than utilizing masterslave latch pairs with no combinational logic between. While such designs may generally achieve much faster clock speeds, this design style poses a challenge to verification. In particular,...

This paper describes a two-phase method for expanding abbreviations found in informal text (e.g., email, text messages, chat room conversations) using a machine translation system trained at the character level during the first phase. In this way, the system learns mappings between character-level “phrases” and is much more robust to new abbreviations than a word-level system. We generate trans...

The complexity of today’s enterprise application landscapes makes the selection of new applications which still fit into the existing landscape a complex and daunting task. In this paper, we present an approach to support this task by a two-phase landscape-dependent evaluation process. In the initial phase single characteristics of the landscape’s different applications and the application to b...

CoLiDeS + Pic is a cognitive model of web-navigation that takes into account the semantic information from graphical elements present on a web-page to compute the information scent value of the hyperlinks. The model is based on CoLiDeS which has a two-phase processing cycle: (a) attention phase, which first parses the web-page and focuses attention on the region of the web-page that is semantic...

Two intelligent abilities and three inverse problems are reelaborated from a probability theory based two pathway perspective, with challenges of statistical learning and efforts towards the challenges overviewed. Then, a detailed introduction is provided on the Bayesian Ying-Yang (BYY) harmony learning. Proposed firstly in (Xu,1995) and systematically developed in the past decade, this approac...

Abstract. In this work we deal with the no-slip drift-flux model for gas-liquid flow dynamics. We focus on a situation where there is a free interface separating the gas-liquid mixture from a pure gas region which takes a positive pressure p∗. This situation is highly relevant for gas-liquid flow in the context of wellbore operations. Previous works have assumed that there is vacuum, i.e., the ...

We describe an optimization application in the context of steel manufacturing, to design and schedule batches for annealing furnaces. Our solution approach uses a two-phase decomposition. The first phase groups together orders into batches using a mixed-integer linear programming model. The second phase assigns the batches to furnaces and schedules them over time, using constraint programming. ...

In this paper, we propose a new model for refining SMS text messages where two different kinds of grammatical errors frequently occur together. A two-phase approach based on the divide and conquer strategy is presented where HMM-based model is used for correcting spacing errors in the first phase, and rule-based correction model is used for correcting spelling errors in the second phase. Experi...
