Abstract:

Affective understanding is an area of affective computing which is concerned with advancing the ability of a computer to understand the affective state of its user. This area continues to receive attention in order to improve the human-computer interactions of automated systems and services. Systems Download

Abstract:

Driving daily through traffic congestion has been recognised as a major cause of stress. High levels of stress while driving negatively impact the driver’s decisions which could potentially lead to accidents and other long-term health hazards. Accordingly, there is a great need to determine stress l

Abstract:

Commuting when there is a significant volume of traffic congestion has been acknowledged as one of the key factors causing stress. Significant levels of stress whilst driving are seen to have a profoundly negative effect on the actions and ability of a driver; this has the capacity to result in

Abstract:

algorithm to handle weak, eliminated-long-vowel, hamzated, and geminated words since the linguistic approach does not handle such cases and a reasonably large portion of Arabic words in texts are irregular. The accuracy of the extracted roots is determined by comparing them with a predefined list of 5,405 triliteral and quadriliteral roots. The linguistic approach performance (with and without the proposed correction algorithm) was tested on an in-house text collection of eight categories. The proposed correction algorithm improved the accuracy of the linguistic one by about 14%.

Abstract:

Text interpretation depends among other things on a pre-processing stage in extracting effectively a correct stem or root. Since there is no available standard stemmer for Arabic, we address here five methods for extracting Arabic roots and the outcomes of the approach with best results will be used later on. Four of these methods are based on a positional-letter-ranking approach where such an approach is investigated along with an adjustment, and two proposed variants. The fifth one is a rule-based approach. An algorithm for correcting irregular words is applied for all methods and a comparison is made between all approaches. The accuracy of these methods was found by comparing extracted roots with a predefined list of roots using an in-house text collection. Results show that the correction algorithm improved the accuracy of the rule-based one by about 14% and the positional letter ranking based algorithms by 7% to 10%. The adjusted positional letter ranking method proved to be the highest in accuracy among all five algorithms but slightly higher than the rule-based one. However, the rule-based algorithm was found to be the approach with the highest accuracy among all ten algorithms when the correction algorithm was included in it.

Abstract:

Nowadays with the increasing number of cars, daily driving activity has become a source of stress. The increase in drivers' stress level may affect their decisions while driving causing accidents or it may have a long term effect on their health. Therefore, it is important to be aware of factors tha Download

Abstract:

Arabic text interpretation depends among other things on a pre-processing stage in extracting a correct stem or root. We address in this work a linguistic approach for root extraction as a pre-processing step for Arabic text mining. The linguistic approach is composed of a rule-based light stemmer and a pattern-based infix remover. Since this approach does not handle defective, vocalized words and slightly handles geminated words, we propose an algorithm to handle such cases by using 5737 possible correction cases in 71 predefined lists. This algorithm is proposed since there is reasonably large portion of Arabic words that are defective and most available stemmers of Arabic words either don't handle such words or handle them poorly. The accuracy of the extracted roots is determined by comparing them with a predefined list of 5404 triliteral and quadriliteral roots. The linguistic approach performance (with and without the proposed correction algorithm)was tested on an original text collection of eight categories. The accuracies of the linguistic algorithm along with the proposed correction one are reported here. The proposed correction algorithm improved the performance of the linguistic one by about 14%.
