In order to solve the low searching efficiency in the peer-to-peer (P2P) network, introduce the ant colony algorithm with the particle swarm optimization in searching procedure. Present a new adaptive search protocol (SACASP) based on the ant colony algorithm with the particle swarm optimization in the Peer-to-Peer Network. The approach simulates the process of the ants’ searching food, and can...

the different model specifications have been proposed to estimate time-varying technical efficiency in the last two decades. these models have resulted different efficiency scores based on their built-in specifications. this study investigates the temporal pattern of technical efficiency based on cornwell, sickles, and schmidt (css, 1990) as well as lee and schmidt (ls, 1993) models. in order t...

Profile Hidden Markov Model (Profile-HMM) is an efficient statistical approach to represent protein families. Currently, several databases maintain valuable protein sequence information as profile-HMMs. There is an increasing interest to improve the efficiency of searching Profile-HMM databases to detect sequence-profile or profile-profile homology. However, most efforts to enhance searching ef...

This paper presents the proposed Query Expansion (QE) techniques based on Khmer specific characteristics to improve the retrieval performance of Khmer Information Retrieval (IR) system. Four types of Khmer specific characteristics: spelling variants, synonyms, derivative words and reduplicative words have been investigated in this research. In order to evaluate the effectiveness and the efficie...
