Multi-source, Multilingual Information Extraction and Summarization
by Thierry Poibeau Horacio Saggion Jakub Piskorski Roman YangarberInformation extraction (IE) and text summarization (TS) are powerful technologies for finding relevant pieces of information in text and presenting them to the user in condensed form. The ongoing information explosion makes IE and TS critical for successful functioning within the information society. These technologies face particular challenges due to the inherent multi-source nature of the information explosion. The technologies must now handle not isolated texts or individual narratives, but rather large-scale repositories and streams---in general, in multiple languages---containing a multiplicity of perspectives, opinions, or commentaries on particular topics, entities or events. There is thus a need to adapt existing techniques and develop new ones to deal with these challenges. This volume contains a selection of papers that present a variety of methodologies for content identification and extraction, as well as for content fusion and regeneration. The chapters cover various aspects of the challenges, depending on the nature of the information sought---names vs. events,--- and the nature of the sources---news streams vs. image captions vs. scientific research papers, etc. This volume aims to offer a broad and representative sample of studies from this very active research field.
Multi-spectral and Intelligent Sensing (SpringerBriefs in Computer Science)
by Xiaoming Tao Lu Sun Liting Wang Wentao ShenThis book provides a concise overview of intelligent technologies for vision and sensing, with a particular focus on their applications in various multispectral configurations, including safety monitoring in rural areas. Within the realm of intelligent perception and contemporary healthcare, the book emphasizes the real-time monitoring, analysis, and prediction of vital signals using biomedical optical sensors. This approach aims to offer more adaptable and personalized services within the medical health management domain. Furthermore, the book delves into the comprehensive comprehension of physiological signals and additional data sources, such as environmental and motion data. The goal is to enhance the breadth and depth of data analysis, providing more integrated support for the life and health sector. Additionally, the book explores the implementation of edge intelligence algorithms at the sensor level to enable real-time analysis, enhancing the efficiency of sensor data processing and utilization. Detailed explanations of the configuration and deployment of an active vision camera system featuring an integrated edge algorithm are provided to elucidate the coordination and communication mechanisms of edge intelligence technology across multiple edge devices. A specific application case is then presented—the universal camera jamming system—which underscores the benefits of intelligent sensing fusion for tasks such as attitude and position recognition, as well as self-feedback excitation jamming. The book underscores the pervasive and seamless integration of smart sensing in both current and future lifestyles, spanning from active vision cameras to diverse applications across multiple spectrums. Its insights are poised to stimulate innovation and application within the realms of smart vision and sensing, including a comprehensive analysis of future healthcare paradigms.
Multi-valued Logic for Decision-Making Under Uncertainty (Computer Science Foundations and Applied Logic)
by Ronald Yager Evgeny Kagan Alexander RybalovMulti-valued and fuzzy logics provide mathematical and computational tools for handling imperfect information and decision-making with rational collective reasoning and irrational individual judgements. The suggested implementation of multi-valued logics is based on the uninorm and absorbing norm with generating functions defined by probability distributions. Natural extensions of these logics result in non-commutative and non-distributive logics. In addition to Boolean truth values, these logics handle subjective truth and false values and model irrational decisions. Dynamics of decision-making are specified by the subjective Markov process and learning – by neural network with extended Tsetlin neurons. Application of the suggested methods is illustrated by modelling of irrational economic decisions and biased reasoning in the wisdom-of-the-crowd method, and by control of mobile robots and navigation of their groups. Topics and features: Bridges the gap between fuzzy and probability methods Includes examples in the field of machine-learning and robots’ control Defines formal models of subjective judgements and decision-making Presents practical techniques for solving non-probabilistic decision-making problems Initiates further research in non-commutative and non-distributive logics The book forms a basis for theoretical studies and practice of decision-making under uncertainty and will be useful for computer scientists and mathematicians interested in multi-valued and fuzzy logic, as well as for engineers working in the field of data mining and data analysis.
Multi-variant User Interfaces in E-commerce: A Practical Approach to UI Personalization (Progress in IS)
by Adam WasilewskiThis book focuses on the personalisation of the user interface in e-commerce based on collected data on customer behaviour. While product recommendation systems are widely used for this purpose today, they do not allow for a comprehensive adaptation of the layout to different user groups. The proposed approach is based on the conclusion that since e-commerce customers are different, the user interface should also be different. To make this possible, several components need to be combined, which together allow the design of the online shop to be automatically or expertly adapted to the customer's choices and behaviour. It presents and discusses a framework that allows data to be collected, processed and used to optimise UI variants for generated customer segments. The proposed approach has been verified in practice and further developed on this basis, so that the reader is presented with a solution that is not riddled with 'baby age' problems, and the limitations and challenges identified are described and commented on in detail. Typical e-commerce systems currently have a single UI for all customers. The implementation of multi-variant UIs therefore represents an opportunity for companies to create a marketing advantage by addressing the personalisation trends in e-commerce.The book is intended for those responsible for developing e-commerce platform and user interfaces for web-based systems, as well as individuals interested in practical applications of machine learning in business.
