Although many effective methods have been proposed for surveillance re-id in recent years, re-id on robot platform is still a novel unsolved problem. Most existing methods adapt the supervised metric learning offline to improve the accuracy. However, these methods can not adapt to unknown scenes. To solve this problem, an online re-id framework is proposed. Considering that robotics can afford to use high-resolution RGB-D sensors and clear human face may be captured, face information is used to update the metric model. Firstly, the metric model is pre-trained offline using labeled data. Then during the online stage, we use face information to mine incorrect body matching pairs which are collected to update the metric model online. In addition, to make full use of both appearance and skeleton information provided by RGB-D sensors, a novel feature funnel model （FFM） is proposed. Comparison studies show our approach is more effective and adaptable to varying environments.展开更多

Based on domain ontology, a structure called semantic tree is defined to de- scribe the semantics relationships among measured entity, meas- urable attribute and constraints, which provides the same method to define semantics of process metrics and data elements in enterprise information model. The arithmetic to map process metrics to enterprise information model is put forward, which can compute the query conditions to retrieve process metrics data from enterprise information systems accurately. This arithmetic has been applied in an information project.展开更多

Nevertheless, high-dimensional data remains a major challenge for classification algorithms due to its high computational cost and storage requirements. The 2016 Demographic and Health Survey of Ethiopia (EDHS 2016) used as the data source for this study which is publicly available contains several features that may not be relevant to the prediction task. In this paper, we developed a hybrid multidimensional metrics framework for predictive modeling for both model performance evaluation and feature selection to overcome the feature selection challenges and select the best model among the available models in DM and ML. The proposed hybrid metrics were used to measure the efficiency of the predictive models. Experimental results show that the decision tree algorithm is the most efficient model. The higher score of HMM (m, r) = 0.47 illustrates the overall significant model that encompasses almost all the user’s requirements, unlike the classical metrics that use a criterion to select the most appropriate model. On the other hand, the ANNs were found to be the most computationally intensive for our prediction task. Moreover, the type of data and the class size of the dataset (unbalanced data) have a significant impact on the efficiency of the model, especially on the computational cost, and the interpretability of the parameters of the model would be hampered. And the efficiency of the predictive model could be improved with other feature selection algorithms (especially hybrid metrics) considering the experts of the knowledge domain, as the understanding of the business domain has a significant impact.展开更多
