The parking assist system (PAS) provides information of parking slots around the vehicle. As the demand for an autonomous system is increasing, intelligent PAS has been developed to park the vehicle without the driver’s intervention. To locate parking slots, most existing methods detect slot markings on the ground using an around-view monitoring (AVM) image. There are many types of parking slots of different shapes in the real world. Due to this fact, these methods either limit their target types or use predefined slot information of different types to cover the types. However, the approach using predefined slot information cannot handle more complex cases where the slot markings are connected to other line markings and the angle between slot marking is slightly different from the predefined settings. To overcome this problem, we propose a method to detect parking slots of various shapes without predefined type information. The proposed method is the first to introduce a free junction type feature to represent the structure of parking slot junction. Since the parking slot has a modular or repeated junction pattern at both sides, junction pair consisting of one parking slot can be detected using the free junction type feature. In this process, the geometrically symmetric characteristic of the junction pair is crucial to find each junction pair. The entrance of parking slot is reconstructed according to the structure of junction pair. Then, the vacancy of the parking slot is determined by a support vector machine. The Kalman tracker is applied for each detected parking slot to ensure stability of the detection in consecutive frames. We evaluate the performance of the proposed method by using manually collected datasets, captured in different parking environments. The experimental results show that the proposed method successfully detects various types of parking slots without predefined slot type information in different environments.

Forum comments are valuable information for enterprises to discover public preferences and market trends. However, extensive marketing and malicious attack behaviors in forums are always an obstacle for enterprises to make effective use of this information. And these forum spammers are constantly updating technology to prevent detection. Therefore, how to accurately recognize forum spammers has become an important issue. Aiming to accurately recognize forum spammers, this paper changes the research target from understanding abnormal reviews and the suspicious relationship among forum spammers to discover how they must behave (follow or be followed) to achieve their monetary goals. First, we classify forum spammers into automated forum spammers and marketing forum spammers based on different behavioral features. Then, we propose a support vector machine-based automated spammer recognition (ASR) model and a k-means clustering-based marketing spammer recognition (MSR) model. The experimental results on the real-world labelled dataset illustrate the effectiveness of our methods on classification spammer from common users. To the best of our knowledge, this work is among the first to construct behavior-driven recognition models according to the different behavioral patterns of forum spammers.

ABSTRACT Introduction Early prediction of the acute hypotensive episode (AHE) in critically ill patients has the potential to improve outcomes. In this study, we apply different machine learning algorithms to the MIMIC III Physionet dataset, containing more than 60,000 real-world intensive care unit records, to test commonly used machine learning technologies and compare their performances. Materials and Methods Five classification methods including K-nearest neighbor, logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest, and a deep learning method called long short-term memory are applied to predict an AHE 30 minutes in advance. An analysis comparing model performance when including versus excluding invasive features was conducted. To further study the pattern of the underlying mean arterial pressure (MAP), we apply a regression method to predict the continuous MAP values using linear regression over the next 60 minutes. Results Support vector machine yields the best performance in terms of recall (84%). Including the invasive features in the classification improves the performance significantly with both recall and precision increasing by more than 20 percentage points. We were able to predict the MAP with a root mean square error (a frequently used measure of the differences between the predicted values and the observed values) of 10 mmHg 60 minutes in the future. After converting continuous MAP predictions into AHE binary predictions, we achieve a 91% recall and 68% precision. In addition to predicting AHE, the MAP predictions provide clinically useful information regarding the timing and severity of the AHE occurrence. Conclusion We were able to predict AHE with precision and recall above 80% 30 minutes in advance with the large real-world dataset. The prediction of regression model can provide a more fine-grained, interpretable signal to practitioners. Model performance is improved by the inclusion of invasive features in predicting AHE, when compared to predicting the AHE based on only the available, restricted set of noninvasive technologies. This demonstrates the importance of exploring more noninvasive technologies for AHE prediction.

In recent years, automatic ear recognition has become a popular research. Effective feature extraction is one of the most important steps in Content-based ear image retrieval applications. In this paper, the authors proposed a new vectors construction method for ear retrieval based on Block Discriminative Common Vector. According to this method, the ear image is divided into 16 blocks firstly and the features are extracted by applying DCV to the sub-images. Furthermore, Support Vector Machine is used as classifier to make decision. The experimental results show that the proposed method performs better than classical PCA+LDA, so it is an effective human ear recognition method.
