Evolving fuzzy systems (EFS) have received increased attention from the community for purpose of data stream modeling in an incremental, single-pass and transparent manner. To date, a wide variety EFS approaches been developed successfully used real-world applications which address structural evolution parameter adaptation single models. We propose specific ensemble scheme to increase their rob...

Online prescription filling possesses great market potential; however, consumers’ perception of uncertainty tends to impede their adoption of online prescription filling. Trust is recognized as a critical factor affecting online shopping in general. We contend that trust can help consumers overcome perceived uncertainty, thereby enhancing their intention to adopt online prescription filling. Dr...

BACKGROUND Although the Internet is a promising medium to offer lifestyle interventions to large amounts of people at relatively low costs and effort, actual exposure rates of these interventions fail to meet the high expectations. Since public health impact of interventions is determined by intervention efficacy and level of exposure to the intervention, it is imperative to put effort in optim...

Understanding the behavior of users in online systems is of essential importance for sociology, system design, e-commerce, and beyond. Most existing models assume that individuals in diverse systems, ranging from social networks to e-commerce platforms, tend to what is already popular. We propose a statistical time-aware framework to identify the users who differ from the usual behavior by bein...

The significantly related diseases of sequences could play an important role in understanding the functions of these sequences. In this paper, we introduced BLAT2DOLite, an online system for annotating human genes and diseases and identifying the significant relationships between sequences and diseases. Currently, BLAT2DOLite integrates Entrez Gene database and Disease Ontology Lite (DOLite), w...

Despite the growing popularity of online game playing, there have been no surveys comparing adolescent and adult players. Therefore, an online questionnaire survey was used to examine various factors of online computer game players (n = 540) who played the most popular online game Everquest. The survey examined basic demographic information, playing frequency (i.e. amount of time spent playing ...

Perception algorithms in autonomous vehicles are vital for the vehicle to understand semantics of its surroundings, including detection and tracking objects environment. The outputs these turn used decision-making safety-critical scenarios like collision avoidance, automated emergency braking. Thus, it is crucial monitor such perception systems at runtime. However, due high-level, complex repre...
