A two-phase study was conducted which related the confusions among dot matrix characters to the two-dimensional spatial frequency similarity of these characters. During the first phase of the study, subjects were shown single alphanumeric characters from four different dot matrix fonts and five matrix size/character sub-tense combinations. Data from this phase of the research were analyzed in terms of both correctness and character confusion frequencies. The second phase of the study consisted of digitizing and analyzing all characters from two of the fonts used in the first phase. The fonts chosen represent the most and least confusable of the four, based on the performance data obtained. These characters were scanned photometrically using a computer-controlled X-Y stage and subjected to a 512 × 512 point fast Fourier transform (FFT). The Fourier coefficients were correlated for all possible character pairs within each font-matrix/character size cell. These correlations provided an objective similarity measure among characters based upon their 2-D spatial frequency spectra. In addition to the spatial frequency similarity measure, a simple digital Phi coefficient was calculated for each character pair. The final analysis performed in this study was the correlation of observed performance (confusions) with objective similarity measures (2-D spectra and Phi coefficients).

A novel two-phase method for two-dimensional (2D) direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation with L-shaped array based on decoupled atomic norm minimization (DANM) is proposed in this paper. In the first phase, given the sample crosscorrelation matrix, the gridless DANM technique considering the noise and finite snapshots effects is employed to exploit the structure and sparse properties of the crosscorrelation matrix. The resulting DANM-based algorithm not only enables the crosscorrelation matrix reconstruction (CCMR) but also reconstructs the covariance matrix of the L-shaped array. Hence, sequentially, in the second phase, the conventional 2D DOA estimators for the L-shaped array can be adopted for the angle estimation. With appropriate 2D DOA estimators, the resulting proposed algorithms can not only achieve better performance but also detect more source number, compared with conventional crosscorrelation-based DOA estimators. Moreover, the proposed method, termed CCMR-DANM, not only has blind characteristic that it does not require the prior information of source numbers but also is more efficient than the existing CCMR-based counterparts. Numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness and outperformance of the proposed method.

Interpretation of fine-scale microstructures containing high volume fractions of second phase is complex. In particular, microstructures developed through decomposition within low temperature miscibility gaps may be extremely fine. This paper compares the morphological interpretations of such complex microstructures by the high-resolution techniques of TEM and atom probe field-ion microscopy (APFIM).The Fe-25 at% Be alloy selected for this study was aged within the low temperature miscibility gap to form a <100> aligned two-phase microstructure. This triaxially modulated microstructure is composed of an Fe-rich ferrite phase and a B2-ordered Be-enriched phase. The microstructural characterization through conventional bright-field TEM is inadequate because of the many contributions to image contrast. The ordering reaction which accompanies spinodal decomposition in this alloy permits simplification of the image by the use of the centered dark field technique to image just one phase. A CDF image formed with a B2 superlattice reflection is shown in fig. 1. In this CDF micrograph, the the B2-ordered Be-enriched phase appears as bright regions in the darkly-imaging ferrite. By examining the specimen in a [001] orientation, the <100> nature of the modulations is evident.

A simple two-phase conceptual model is postulated to explain the initial growth of microbubbles after pressure release in dissolved air flotation. During the first phase bubbles merely expand from existing nucleation centres as air precipitates from solution, without bubble coalescence. This phase ends when all excess air is transferred to the gas phase. During the second phase, the total air volume remains the same, but bubbles continue to grow due to bubble coalescence. This model is used to explain the results from experiments where three different nozzle variations were tested, namely a nozzle with an impinging surface immediately outside the nozzle orifice, a nozzle with a bend in the nozzle channel, and a nozzle with a tapering outlet immediately outside the nozzle orifice. From these experiments, it is inferred that the first phase of bubble growth is completed at approximately 1.7 ms after the start of pressure release.

: Missing attribute values in medical datasets are one of the most common problems faced when mining medical datasets. Estimation of missing values is a major challenging task in pre-processing of datasets. Any wrong estimate of missing attribute values can lead to inefficient and improper classification thus resulting in lower classifier accuracies. Similarity measures play a key role during the imputation process. The use of an appropriate and better similarity measure can help to achieve better imputation and improved classification accuracies. This paper proposes a novel imputation measure for finding similarity between missing and non-missing instances in medical datasets. Experiments are carried by applying both the proposed imputation technique and popular benchmark existing imputation techniques. Classification is carried using KNN, J48, SMO and RBFN classifiers. Experiment analysis proved that after imputation of medical records using proposed imputation technique, the resulting classification accuracies reported by the classifiers KNN, J48 and SMO have improved when compared to other existing benchmark imputation techniques.

AbstractEdge computing extends traditional cloud services to the edge of the network, closer to users, and is suitable for network services with low latency requirements. With the rise of edge computing, its security issues have also received increasing attention. In this paper, a novel two-phase cycle algorithm is proposed for effective cyber intrusion detection in edge computing based on a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) and modified back-propagation neural network (MBPNN), namely TPC-MOGA-MBPNN. In the first phase, the MOGA is employed to build a multi-objective optimization model that tries to find the Pareto optimal parameter set for MBPNN. The Pareto optimal parameter set is applied for simultaneous minimization of the average false positive rate (Avg FPR), mean squared error (MSE) and negative average true positive rate (Avg TPR) in the dataset. In the second phase, some MBPNNs are created based on the parameter set obtained by MOGA and are trained to search for a more optimal parameter set locally. The parameter set obtained in the second phase is used as the input of the first phase, and the training process is repeated until the termination criteria are reached. A benchmark dataset, KDD cup 1999, is used to demonstrate and validate the performance of the proposed approach for intrusion detection. The proposed approach can discover a pool of MBPNN-based solutions. Combining these MBPNN solutions can significantly improve detection performance, and a GA is used to find the optimal MBPNN combination. The results show that the proposed approach achieves an accuracy of 98.81% and a detection rate of 98.23% and outperform most systems of previous works found in the literature. In addition, the proposed approach is a generalized classification approach that is applicable to the problem of any field having multiple conflicting objectives.
