Abstract:
<p> Normalization of deviance has been thoroughly studied and proven to have a dramatic impact on the medical industry, particularly in the field of anesthesiology, and for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Few such studies have been conducted in the mining industry. This research was designed to show whether normalization of deviance is occurring within the subculture of mining engineers.</p><p> This research project was based on a cross-sectional surveillance of a group of mining engineers and consultants belonging to the Society for Mining, Metallurgy and Explorati

How do we find patterns and anomalies, on graphs with billions of nodes and edges, which do not fit in memory? How to use parallelism for such Tera- or Peta-scale graphs? In this thesis, we propose PEGASUS, a large scale graph mining system implemented on the top of the HADOOP platform, the open source version of MAPREDUCE. PEGASUS includes algorithms which help us spot patterns and anomalous behaviors in large graphs. PEGASUS enables the structure analysis on large graphs. We unify many different structure analysis algorithms, including the analysis on connected components, PageRank, and radi

Abstract:
This project describes a novel approach to the development of a multimodal video segmentation system for the analysis of multimedia data. The current practices of multimedia data analysis rely either solely on one of the video and audio components or on the presence of both together. The proposed approach makes use of both the video and audio inputs in parallel, complementing each other during the video processing stage, towards optimising both the accuracy and speed of the method. Unlike in the other commonly established methods, the video analysis here is carried out using both the luminance

Abstract:
The large-scale wind energy industry is relatively new and is rapidly expanding. The ability of a wind turbine to extract power from the wind is a function of three main factors: the measured wind speed, the power curve of the turbine, and the ability of the machine to handle wind fluctuations. The key parameter determining wind turbine performance is wind speed and it is normally measured with an anemometer placed at the nacelle of a turbine. The dynamic nature of wind speed, however, is a barrier for applying predictive engineering in wind energy. Traditional approaches based on physical sci

Compact and succinct data structures use space that approaches the information-theoretic lower bound on the space that is required to represent the data. In practice, their memory footprint is orders of magnitude smaller than normal data structures and at the same time they are competitive in speed. A main drawback with many of these data structures is that they do not support dynamic operations efficiently. It can be exceedingly expensive to rebuild a static data structure each time an update occurs. In this thesis, we propose a number of novel compact dynamic data structures including m-Bons

Abstract:
This project investigated the possibility of tailoring the crystallinity of electrospun fibres (crystallinity studies), and the electrospinning of bi- and multicomponent scaffolds of PLLA. During the crystallinity studies, the effects of various electrospinning process parameters on the crystallinity of electrospun poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) fibres were investigated. It was observed that the electrospun fibres had crystallinities between 23 and 46% while that for the as-received granule was 37%, suggesting that the crystallinity of electrospun fibres can be controlled by optimizing the electro

Products that begin from design to mass production stage , the major problem of back-end testing is how to feedback the analysis result to FAB and enhance product yield. In back-end testing process, the engineering data and analysis performance will affect the speed of FAB to enhance new products’ yield and these kinds of problems always be interesting topics to IC makers. In order to fast r

碩士<br>義守大學<br>資訊工程學系<br>89<br>In this thesis, we present a systematic approach which integrates data mining techniques to the processes of database reverse engineering. Three new set-oriented (SQL language based) validation techniques and two heuristic searching methods of inclusion dependencies for static and dynamic databases are proposed. In addition, an efficient data mining algorithm to incrementally discover all functional dependencies from a relational database, in the presence of a new set of tuples added to the database, is proposed. The purpose of database reverse engine
