This paper describes the vision of the Collective, a compute utility which runs internet services as well as the highly interactive applications we run on desktop computers today. As part of this vision, we wish to shift the burden of administering the desktops from users to professionals. To decrease the cost of administering systems, we find inspiration in the reliability and maintainability ...

Recently, information appliances with network connectivity and computing capabilities have begun to appear in homes. Being able to control these appliances over the network, these appliances are exposed to risks of being operated by unauthorized users. This paper describes an approach for secure management of appliances inside a house. The approach adapts Area Based Access Control, which is a s...

M-INFOSIFT: A GRAPH-BASED APPROACH FOR MULTICLASS DOCUMENT CLASSIFICATION

Error correcting output code (ECOC) is one of the widely used classifier ensemble technique .That technique provide solution for the various multiclass classification problem by dividing multiclass problem into binary class classification problem. In this paper, a new enhanced heuristic coding method, based on ECOC, RACS-ECOC is proposed. To generate strong classifiers for the multiclass classi...

Multiclass problems are often decomposed into multiple binary problems that are solved by individual binary classifiers whose results are integrated into a final answer. Various methods, including all-pairs (APs), one-versus-all (OVA), and error correcting output code (ECOC), have been studied, to decompose multiclass problems into binary problems. However, little study has been made to optimal...

Despite the success of ILP systems in learning first-order rules from small number of examples and complexly structured data in various domains, they struggle in dealing with multiclass problems. In most cases they boil down a multiclass problem into multiple black-box binary problems following the one-versus-one or one-versus-rest binarisation techniques and learn a theory for each one. When e...

We present two graph-based algorithms for multiclass segmentation of high-dimensional data. The algorithms use a diffuse interface model based on the Ginzburg-Landau functional, related to total variation compressed sensing and image processing. A multiclass extension is introduced using the Gibbs simplex, with the functional’s double-well potential modified to handle the multiclass case. The f...

statement of problem: some vertical changes might be observed during the first stage of orthodontic treatment, aligning and leveling. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate dental and/or skeletal vertical changes occurring in the first stage of preadjusted orthodontic treatment. materials and methods: fourteen patients with an average age of 14.1 years were selected for this study. prea...

In the past decades, the amount of electricity used by appliances has grown dramatically. As we are demanding more electricity, we should lower the damage to our environment by using energy efficiently. Conservation of energy by looking at one’s habits and notifying them to turn off unnecessary appliances can help out a lot. This research develop a framework, which is able to recognize the oper...
