Cognitive Computing (CC) is a contemporary field of studies on intelligent computing methodologies and brain-inspired mechanisms of cognitive systems, cognitive machine learning and cognitive robotics. The IEEE conference ICCI*CC'17 on Cognitive Informatics and Cognitive Computing was focused on...

The article elaborates difficulties faced during text identification from an image. The authors evaluated various algorithms in order to find the solutions. The aim of the research is to increase robustness with respect to different challenges. The system solves the problem of reading multiple...

Finger spelling in air helps user to operate a computer in order to make human interaction easier and faster than keyboard and touch screen. This article presents a real-time video based system which recognizes the English alphabets and words written in air using finger movements only. Optical...

In 2016, Buckingham University’s Vice-Chancellor predicted that the educators will lose their traditional role in 10 years and effectively become little more than classroom assistants (2017, News.com.au. This is supported by the Georgia Institute of Technology’s Computer Science Professor...

New data are created by the quintillions of bytes every day. This explosion of data makes possible fast-developing machine learning and artificial intelligence technology. These technologies thrive on repurposing and processing big data streams. In the big data era, orienting within this magma...

In this article, the author explores and advocates the use of an artificial intelligence tax treaty assistant with regard to resolving issues and problems in respect of the principal purpose test as proposed in relation to the OECD/G20 Base Erosion and Profit Shifting initiative. As the PPT is...

There has been a financial revolution lead by technology firms over the past decade. Many large established technology giants, from Google, Apple to Amazon in the U.S. are entering the financial service industry. Smaller start-ups, in particular robotic advisors, a.k.a. robo-advisors, have been...

The paper is a novel and simple method to determine the channel capacity using software called MATLAB. The neural network called Cerebellar Model Arithmetic Computer (CMAC) is designed, which is applied through a technique called system identification. CMAC consists of hundreds of thousands of...

Machine learning approaches for clinical psychology and psychiatry explicitly focus on learning statistical functions from multidimensional data sets to make generalizable predictions about individuals. The goal of this review is to provide an accessible understanding of why this approach is...

The study analyses the bankruptcy of newly formed Japanese small and medium-sized entities (SMEs) by comparing specific features with newly formed but survived SMEs. It applies Resource-based Firm Theory and other theories to identify the bankruptcy features and uses logit regression to validate...
