In this project we investigate two machine learning methods, one supervised and one unsupervised, that will allow the information content of Yelp data to be efficiently conveyed to the users. The first is matrix completion via the novel ”max-norm” constraint which out results show to be more powerful than the traditional nuclear norm minimization. The second is text summary via sparse PCA which...

Principal component analysis or PCA has been traditionally used as one of the feature extraction techniques in face recognition systems yielding high accuracy when requiring a small number of features. However, the covariance matrix and eigenvalue decomposition stages cause high computational complexity, especially for a large database. Thus, this research presents an alternative approach utili...

Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is one of the feature extraction techniques, commonly used in human facial recognition systems. PCA yields high accuracy rates when requiring lower dimensional vectors; however, the computation during covariance matrix and Eigenvalue Decomposition (EVD) stages leads to a high degree of complexity that corresponds to the increase of datasets. Thus, this researc...

The network traffic data used to build an intrusion detection system is frequently enormous and redundant with important useless information which decreases IDS efficiency. In order to overcome this problem, we have to reduce as much as possible this meaningless information from the original high dimensional data. To do this, we have compared the performance of two features reduction techniques...

Glomerular fibrin deposition and augmentation of procoagulant activity (PCA) are dependent on glomerular macrophage infiltration in anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody-induced glomerulonephritis (anti-GBM GN) in rabbits. Expression of PCA on the surface of glomerular macrophages and/or augmentation of intrinsic glomerular cell PCA by macrophage cytokines (such as IL 1) are potential mech...

Arginase 2, inducible- and endothelial-nitric-oxide synthase (iNOS and eNOS), indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and TGF-beta, might impair immune functions in prostate cancer (PCA) patients. However, their expression was not comparatively analysed in PCA and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). We evaluated the expression of these genes in PCA and BPH tissues. Seventy-six patients (42 BPH, 34 PC...

The selection of appropriate wavelets is an important target for any application. In this paper Face recognition has been performed using Principal component analysis (PCA), Gaussian based PCA and Gabor based PCA. PCA extracts the relevant information from complex data sets and provides a solution to reduce dimensionality. PCA is based on Euclidean distance calculation which is minimized by app...

4 DPA derivative samples are difficult to obtain. The excellent work of W. A. SCHRGEDER et al. utilized column chromatography to identify. and estimate N-nitrosoand nitrodiphenylamine products in smokeless powder· 2 however, the efficiency of separation and X .0 n -1 .-1 method of locating the products proved unsatisfactory for our use.
