Cold start is one of the main challenges in recommender systems. Solving sparsechallenge of cold start users is hard. More cold start users and items are new. Sine many general methods for recommender systems has over fittingon cold start users and items, so recommendation to new users and items is important and hard duty. In this work to overcome sparse problem, we present a new method for rec...

The objective of this research was to develop advanced diesel combustion strategies for emissions reduction in a multi-cylinder diesel engine. The engine was equipped with an electronically-controlled, common-rail fuel injection system, and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system. This experimental setup allowed a wide range of operating conditions to be explored. Effects of various injector ...

This chapter shows how a system can recommend to a group of users by aggregating information from individual user models and modelling the users affective state. It summarizes results from previous research in this area. It also shows how group recommendation techniques can be applied when recommending to individuals, in particular for solving the cold-start problem and dealing with multiple cr...

We perform a study on cold-start news popularity prediction using a collection of 13,319 news articles obtained from Yahoo News. We characterise the online popularity of news articles by two different metrics and try to predict them using machine learning techniques. Contrary to a prior work on the same topic, our findings indicate that predicting the news popularity at cold start is a difficul...

In this paper we offer a potential solution to the cold-start problem in group recommender systems. To do so, we use information about previous group recommendation events and copy ratings from a user who played a similar role in some previous group event. We show that copying in this way, i.e. conditioned on groups, is superior to copying nothing and also superior to copying ratings from the m...

Abstract Oil rim reservoirs are characterised with a small thickness relative to their overlying gas caps and underlying aquifers the development these planned very carefully in order avoid water coning maximise oil production. Studies have shown low recoveries from injection, while foam alternating injections resulted positive recoveries, it is viewed that an option of application chemical enh...

Abstract Here, we report on role of pre-ionization using non-resonant 2.45 GHz microwave heating ( P < 20 kW) in plasma start-up neutral beam injection (NBI) for heliotron configurations low power NB ) under condition. A rapid electron towards burn-through the low- Z impurities was observed experimentally early phase when seed density produced by enough start-up. Beam time to increased with ...

The spray formation and breakup of n-dodecane was investigated experimentally on a common rail diesel injector using a long working distance microscope. The objectives were to further the fundamental understanding of the processes involved in the initial stage of diesel spray formation under engine-like operating conditions, i.e. high ambient pressure and temperature. Present measurements show ...
