In this paper, the authors propose a SDN based disaster-aware smart routing scheme for highly-available information storage systems. The authors' proposed scheme is based on the concept of Symbiotic Computing to recognize disaster status in Real Space, and provides appropriate routes form...

The rise of online P2P lending, as a novel economic lending model, brings new opportunities and challenges for the research of credit risk evaluation. This paper aims to mine information from different data sources to improve the performance of credit risk evaluation models. Be-sides the...

A significant amount of microarray gene expression data is available on the Internet, and researchers are allowed to analyze such data freely. However, microarray data includes thousands of genes, and analysis using conventional techniques is too difficult. Therefore, selecting informative...

The change of lighting conditions and facial pose often affects the driver's face's video registration greatly, which affects the recognition accuracy of the driver's fatigue state. In this paper, the authors first analyze the reasons for the failure of the driver's face registration in the...

In their study, the authors sought to generate rules for cognitive distractions of car drivers using data from a driving simulation environment. They collected drivers' eye-movement and driving data from 18 research participants using a simulator. Each driver drove the same 15-minute course two...

Terrorist attacks launched by extremist groups or individuals have caused catastrophic consequences worldwide. Terrorism risk assessment therefore plays a crucial role in national and international security. Fuzzy reasoning based terrorism risk assessment systems offer a significant potential of...

Probabilistic programming allows artificial systems to better operate with uncertainty, and stochastic arithmetic provides a way to carry out approximate computations with few resources. As such, both are plausible models for natural cognition. The authors' work on the automatic design of...

In order to improve the efficiency of container terminals, eliminate the empty quay cranes movements, the simultaneous loading and unloading operations in same ship-bay is advanced. The AFSA-GA algorithm is proposed to solve the mixed integer programming model of the dual-cycle operation, which...
