E-marketplace has gained popularity with the Indonesian society resulting in the increment of products offered. Consequently, customers require more effort to search for products. In this study, we classified products from several e-marketplaces. The classification was carried out using TF-IDF method for the weighting, cosine similarity to calculate product similarity distance, and k-nearest neighbor algorithm. Based on the first testing result using 150 product data, the k-nearest neighbor method with k=5 successfully classified 146 data with 4 data classified into the wrong class. This k=5 value gives the best result for this case, with an accuracy of 97.33%. The second testing result using 150 mixed brand product data, the k-nearest neighbor method successfully classified 145 data with 5 data classified into the wrong class. The accuracy of the second testing is 96.67%.

Sentiment analysis is a data processing to recognize topics that people talk about and their sentiments toward the topics, one of which in this study is about large-scale social restrictions (PSBB). This study aims to classify negative and positive sentiments by applying the K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm to see the accuracy value of 3 types of distance calculation which are cosine similarity, euclidean, and manhattan distance for Indonesian language tweets about large-scale social restrictions (PSBB) from social media twitter. With the results obtained, the K-Nearest Neighbor accuracy by the Cosine Similarity distance 82% at k = 3, K-Nearest Neighbor by the Euclidean Distance with an accuracy of 81% at k = 11 and K-Nearest Neighbor by Manhattan Distance with an accuracy 80% at k = 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13. So, in this study the K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm with the Cosine Similarity Distance calculation gets the highest point.

Future wireless communication networks will be composed of different technologies with complementary characteristics. Thus, vertical handover (VHO) must support seamless mobility in such heterogeneous environments. The network selection is an important phase in the VHO process and it can be formulated as a multiattribute decision-making problem. So, the mobile terminal equipped with multiple interfaces will be able to choose the most suitable network. This work proposes an access network selection algorithm, based on cosine similarity distance, subjective weights using Fuzzy ANP, and objective weights using particle swarm optimization. The comprehensive weights are based on the cosine similarity distance between the networks and the ideal network. Finally, the candidate network with the minimum cosine distance to the ideal network will be selected in the VHO network selection stage. The performance analysis shows that our proposed method, based on cosine similarity distance and combination weights, reduces the ranking abnormality and number of handoffs in comparison with other MADM methods in the literature.

The idea of the Q-neutrosophic soft set emerges from the neutrosophic soft set by upgrading the membership functions to a two-dimensional entity which indicate uncertainty, indeterminacy and falsity. Hence, it is able to deal with two-dimensional inconsistent, imprecise, and indeterminate information appearing in real life situations. In this study, the tools that measure the similarity, distance and the degree of fuzziness of Q-neutrosophic soft sets are presented. The definitions of distance, similarity and measures of entropy are introduced. Some formulas for Q-neutrosophic soft entropy were presented. The known Hamming, Euclidean and their normalized distances are generalized to make them well matched with the idea of Q-neutrosophic soft set. The distance measure is subsequently used to define the measure of similarity. Lastly, we expound three applications of the measures of Q-neutrosophic soft sets by applying entropy and the similarity measure to a medical diagnosis and decision making problems.

The aim of this study is to improve measurement in marketing research by constructing a new, simple, nonparametric, consistent, and powerful test to study scale invariance. The test is called D-test. D-test is constructed using symbolic dynamics and symbolic entropy as a measure of the difference between the response patterns which comes from two measurement scales. We also give a standard asymptotic distribution of our statistic. Given that the test is based on entropy measures, it avoids smoothed nonparametric estimation. We applied D-test to a real marketing research to study if scale invariance holds when measuring service quality in a sports service. We considered a free-scale as a reference scale and then we compared it with three widely used rating scales: Likert-type scale from 1 to 5 and from 1 to 7, and semantic-differential scale from −3 to +3. Scale invariance holds for the two latter scales. This test overcomes the shortcomings of other procedures for analyzing scale invariance; and it provides researchers a tool to decide the appropriate rating scale to study specific marketing problems, and how the results of prior studies can be questioned.

Thresholding algorithms segment an image into two parts (foreground and background) by producing a binary version of our initial input. It is a complex procedure (due to the distinctive characteristics of each image) which often constitutes the initial step of other image processing or computer vision applications. Global techniques calculate a single threshold for the whole image while local techniques calculate a different threshold for each pixel based on specific attributes of its local area. In some of our previous work, we introduced some specific fuzzy inclusion and entropy measures which we efficiently managed to use on both global and local thresholding. The general method which we presented was an open and adaptable procedure, it was free of sensitivity or bias parameters and it involved image classification, mathematical functions, a fuzzy symmetrical triangular number and some criteria of choosing between two possible thresholds. Here, we continue this research and try to avoid all these by automatically connecting our measures with the wanted threshold using some Artificial Neural Network (ANN). Using an ANN in image segmentation is not uncommon especially in the domain of medical images. However, our proposition involves the use of an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) which means that all we need is a proper database. It is a simple and immediate method which could provide researchers with an alternative approach to the thresholding problem considering that they probably have at their disposal some appropriate and specialized data.

AbstractHuman activity recognition (HAR) is used to support older adults to live independently in their own homes. Once activities of daily living (ADL) are recognised, gathered information will be used to identify abnormalities in comparison with the routine activities. Ambient sensors, including occupancy sensors and door entry sensors, are often used to monitor and identify different activities. Most of the current research in HAR focuses on a single-occupant environment when only one person is monitored, and their activities are categorised. The assumption that home environments are occupied by one person all the time is often not true. It is common for a resident to receive visits from family members or health care workers, representing a multi-occupancy environment. Entropy analysis is an established method for irregularity detection in many applications; however, it has been rarely applied in the context of ADL and HAR. In this paper, a novel method based on different entropy measures, including Shannon Entropy, Permutation Entropy, and Multiscale-Permutation Entropy, is employed to investigate the effectiveness of these entropy measures in identifying visitors in a home environment. This research aims to investigate whether entropy measures can be utilised to identify a visitor in a home environment, solely based on the information collected from motion detectors [e.g., passive infra-red] and door entry sensors. The entropy measures are tested and evaluated based on a dataset gathered from a real home environment. Experimental results are presented to show the effectiveness of entropy measures to identify visitors and the time of their visits without the need for employing extra wearable sensors to tag the visitors. The results obtained from the experiments show that the proposed entropy measures could be used to detect and identify a visitor in a home environment with a high degree of accuracy.
