Abstract:

The use of semantic technologies and Semantic Web ontologies in particular have enabled many recent developments in information integration, search engines, and reasoning over formalised knowledge. Ontology Design Patterns have been proposed to be useful in simplifying the development of Semantic Web ontologies by codifying and reusing modelling best practices. This thesis investigates the quality of Ontology Design Patterns. The main contribution of the thesis is a theoretically grounded and partially empirically evaluated quality model for such patterns including a set of quality characteris

Abstract:

One method for improving the appeal of instruction is found in Christopher Alexander’s work on architectural design patterns. In this qualitative research study, student comments on teacher/course evaluation forms were analyzed to generate six instructional design patterns. The teacher enthusiasm pattern encourages teachers to show (a) increased scholarship and enthusiasm towards the subject matter, (b) genuine concern and enthusiasm towards the students, and (c) mastery of and enthusiasm towards the act of teaching. The balanced curriculum pattern recommends that teachers (a) determine the ap

Abstract:

Structural parameters that determine yarn quality include evenness, hairiness and twist. This thesis applies machine vision techniques to yarn inspection, to determine these parameters in a non-contact manner. Due to the increased costs of such a solution over conventional sensors, the thesis takes a wide look at, and where necessary develops, the potential uses of machine vision for several key aspects of yarn inspection at both low and high speed configurations. Initially, the optimum optical / imaging conditions for yarn imaging are determined by investigating the various factors which degr

Abstract:

The ever-increasing demand for good communications/toll quality speech has created a renewed interest into the perceptual impact of rate compression. Two general areas are investigated in this work, namely speech quality assessment and speech coding. In the field of speech quality assessment, a model is developed which simulates the processing stages of the peripheral auditory system. At the output of the model a "running" auditory spectrum is obtained. This represents the auditory (spectral) equivalent of any acoustic sound such as speech. Auditory spectra from coded speech segments serve as

Abstract:

The imaging process can be thought of as the acquisition of data and the processing and display of data. The image quality of the acquired data is assessed using objective methods. The spatial transfer characteristic was measured using the MTF, and the noise properties assessed using Wiener spectra for gamma camera and film-screen systems. An overall measure of image quality, noise equivalent quanta, can then be calculated. The image quality of the displayed data is assessed using subjective methods. Contrast detail test objects have been used for film-screen systems and forced choice experime

Abstract:

This thesis focuses on developing a nondestructive strategy for measuring the quality of food using hyperspectral imaging. The specific focus is to develop a classification methodology for detecting bruised/unbruised areas in hyperspectral images of fruits such as strawberries through the classification of pixels containing the edible portion of the fruit. A multiband segmentation algorithm is formulated to generate a mask for extracting the edible pixels from each band in a hypercube. A key feature of the segmentation algorithm is that it makes no prior assumptions for selecting the bands

Networks are becoming increasingly complex, making network quality of service (QoS) an ongoing and difficult problem. Important QoS challenges include ensuring availability of services, privacy and accuracy of data and preventing data loss. These challenges can be addressed by providing effective security mechanisms that meet the scalability requirements of modern networks, environments for testing these mechanisms and providing metrics to measure and increase information quality especially in resource limited networks such as sensor networks. To meet these goals, we present several topics. Fi

In addition, measurements from an entire image can be obtained and the system can assess images irrespective of their shape. The image anal

Approximately half of all wasted food is fruits and vegetables. One major cause of food waste is abnormal aesthetics; even if it is just as delicious as its normal counterpart. Food with a non-standard appearance (hereafter called ugly food) can be expelled by the markets. To reduce such waste, ugly food campaigns, which were developed in Europe and spread throughout the world, advocate for the consumption of ugly food. To study the problem of ugly food waste, this thesis examines ugly apples, since apples are the most common, representative, and readily accessible fruit. The objective of this

Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells or bone marrow stromal cells are one type of adult stem cells that are of particular interest. Since they are derived from a living human adult donor, they do not have the ethical issues associated with the use

Pour cela, le framework RDF propose de formater les données en phrases élémentaires de la forme (sujet, relation, objet) , appelées triplets. Les bases du Web des données, dites bases RDF, sont des ensembles de triplets. Dans une base RDF, l’ontologie – données structurelles – organise la description des données factuelles. Le nombre et la taille des bases du Web des données n’a pas cessé de croître depuis sa

Abstract:

Traditionally, the pharmaceutical industry is characterized by of peculiar characteristics (e.g., low production volumes, multi-products manufacturing based mainly on batch processes, strict regulatory framework) that make the implementation of modern quality principles more complex for this sector. However, the innovation gap with respect to other manufacturing industries is gradually reducing thanks to the introduction of the Quality-by-Design initiative by the Regulatory Agencies (such as the Food and Drug Administration, FDA and the European Medicines Agency, EMA). QbD is based on the conc

Abstract:

Le triage des noix en coque a pour but d'eliminer toutes celles qui presentent des defauts externes et internes. Son automatisation permet d'en augmenter la productivite et une meilleure qualite de noix vendues. Cette automatisation repose sur un systeme d'inspection par vision artificielle. Celui-ci est constitue de deux parties: l'une relative a la prise d'images internes et externes de noix et l'autre a la qualification de la qualite des noix a partir de leurs images, laquelle fait appel aux techniques de traitement d'images et de reconnaissance de formes. Dans cette etude, un tel systeme d
