Seasonal and diurnal rain heights variation at Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Johor was studied. Slant path rain attenuation prediction and modeling is crucial to satellite equipment design; a major input is the rain height. One year meteorological ground-based, S-band, 3D RAPIC precipitation radar data at 500m resolution sourced from the Malaysian Meteorological Department was complemented with two-year TRMM PR data sourced from JAXA Earth Observation Research Center. After filtering, sorting, extraction and decoding of the data, vertical reflectivity profiles were constructed; from which rain height parameters were extracted. TRMM PR processed monthly (3A25) and daily (2A23) rainfall precipitation data were similarly used to obtain rain height parameters to investigate the seasonal and diurnal variations. Results from this work suggested that rain height parameters are influenced by both seasonal and diurnal variations. Higher seasonal variability was observed during south-west and pre-southwest monsoons. Rain heights were also observed to be higher in the night than in the day time.

Learner learning style represents a key principle and core value of the adaptive learning systems (ALS). Moreover, understanding individual learner learning styles is a very good condition for having the best services of resource adaptation. However, the majority of the ALS, which consider learning styles, use questionnaires in order to detect it, whereas this method has a various disadvantages, For example, it is unsuitable for some kinds of respondents, time-consuming to complete, it may be misunderstood by respondent, etc. In the present paper, we propose an approach for automatically detecting learning styles in ALS based on eye tracking technology, because it represents one of the most informative characteristics of gaze behavior. The experimental results showed a high relationship among the Felder-Silverman Learning Style and the eye movements recorded whilst learning.

Gene expression data is popularized for its capability to disclose various disease conditions. However, the conventional procedure to extract gene expression data itself incorporates various artifacts that offer challenges in diagnosis a complex disease indication and classification like cancer. Review of existing research approaches indicates that classification approaches are few to proven to be standard with respect to higher accuracy and applicable to gene expression data apart from unaddresed problems of computational complexity. Therefore, the proposed manuscript introduces a novel and simplified model capable using Graph Fourier Transform, Eigen Value and vector for offering better classification performance considering case study of microarray database, which is one typical example of gene expression data. The study outcome shows that proposed system offers comparatively better accuracy and reduced computational complexity with the existing clustering approaches.

In modern public communication networks, digital data is massively transmitted through the internet with a high risk of data piracy. Steganography is a technique used to transmit data without arousing suspicion of secret data existence. In this paper, a color image steganography technique is proposed in spatial domain. The cover image is segmented into non-overlapping blocks which are scattered among image size window using Burrows Wheeler transform before embedding. Secret data is embedded in each block according to its sequence in the Burrows Wheeler transform output. The hiding method is an operation of an exclusive-or between a virtual bit which is generated from the most significant bit and the least significant bits of the cover pixel. Results of the algorithm are analyzed according to its degradation of the output image and embedding capacity. The results are also compared with other existing methods.

Text modeling and sentence selection are the fundamental steps of a typical extractive document summarization algorithm. The common text modeling method connects a pair of sentences based on their similarities. Even thought it can effectively represent the sentence similarity graph of given document(s) its big drawback is a large time complexity of $O(n^2)$, where n represents the number of sentences. The quadratic time complexity makes it impractical for large documents. In this paper we propose the fast approximation algorithms for the text modeling and the sentence selection. Our text modeling algorithm reduces the time complexity to near-linear time by rapidly finding the most similar sentences to form the sentences similarity graph. In doing so we utilized Locality-Sensitive Hashing, a fast algorithm for the approximate nearest neighbor search. For the sentence selection step we propose a simple memory-access-efficient node ranking method based on the idea of scanning sequentially only the neighborhood arrays. Experimentally, we show that sacrificing a rather small percentage of recall and precision in the quality of the produced summary can reduce the quadratic to sub-linear time complexity. We see the big potential of proposed method in text summarization for mobile devices and big text data summarization for internet of things on cloud. In our experiments, beside evaluating the presented method on the standard general and query multi-document summarization tasks, we also tested it on few alternative summarization tasks including general and query, timeline, and comparative summarization.

In this paper, a single neuron neural network beamformer is proposed. A perceptron model is designed to optimize the complex weights of a dipole array antenna to steer the beam to desired directions. The objective is to reduce the complexity by using a single neuron neural network and utilize it for adaptive beamforming in array antennas. The selection of nonlinear activation function plays the pivotal role in optimization depends on whether the weights are real or complex. We have appropriately proposed two types of activation functions for respective real and complex weight values. The optimized radiation patterns obtained from the single neuron neural network are compared with the respective optimized radiation patterns from the traditional Least Mean Square (LMS) method. Matlab is used to optimize the weights in neural network and LMS method as well as display the radiation patterns.

Multiple antenna configurations can be used to increase the data throughput reducing the effects of multipath fading and interference when channel bandwidth is limited. Orthogonal Space Time Block Codes along with Transmit antenna selection can improve the performance of multiple input multiple output systems. In this paper, we present the Transmit Antenna Selection (TAS) technique based on the Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) scheme with single antenna selection for image transmission. The performance analysis of the system was carried out under different fading channels i.e. Rayleigh and Rician channel for image input. We design end to end TAS/MRC system in Simulink with advancements in the channel designs and receive diversity techniques along with the feedback models. The Bit Error Rate (BER) analysis was performed for the combinations of number of transmit and receive antennas for TAS/MRC system for various fading environments.

An increase in use of web produces large content of information about products. Online reviews are used to make decision by peoples. Opinion mining is vast research area in which different types of reviews are analyzed. Several issues are existing in this area. Domain adaptation is emerging issue in opinion mining. Labling of data for every domain is time consuming and costly task. Hence the need arises for model that train one domain and applied it on other domain reducing cost aswell as time. This is called domain adaptation which is addressed in this paper. Using maximum entropy and clustering technique source domains data is trained. Trained data from source domain is applied on target data to labeling purpose A result shows moderate accuracy for 5 fold cross validation and combination of source domains for Blitzer et al (2007) multi domain product dataset.

Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) is a probability model for grouping hidden topics in documents by the number of predefined topics. If conducted incorrectly, determining the amount of K topics will result in limited word correlation with topics. Too large or too small number of K topics causes inaccuracies in grouping topics in the formation of training models. This study aims to determine the optimal number of corpus topics in the LDA method using the maximum likelihood and Minimum Description Length (MDL) approach. The experimental process uses Indonesian news articles with the number of documents at 25, 50, 90, and 600; in each document, the numbers of words are 3898, 7760, 13005, and 4365. The results show that the maximum likelihood and MDL approach result in the same number of optimal topics. The optimal number of topics is influenced by alpha and beta parameters. In addition, the number of documents does not affect the computation times but the number of words does. Computational times for each of those datasets are 2.9721, 6.49637, 13.2967, and 3.7152 seconds. The optimisation model has resulted in many LDA topics as a classification model. This experiment shows that the highest average accuracy is 61% with alpha 0.1 and beta 0.001.
