Dual-Stage Social Friend Recommendation System Based on User Interests

The use of online social network (OSN) has become essential to humans' lives whether for entertainment, business or shopping. This increasing use of OSN motivates designing and implementing special systems that use OSN users' data to provide better user experience using machine learning and data mining algorithms and techniques. One system that is used extensively for this purpose is friend recommendation system (FRS) in which it recommends users to other users in professional or entertaining online social networks.

For this purpose, this study proposes a novel friend recommendation system, namely Hybrid Friend Recommendation (FR) model. The Hybrid model applies dual-stage methodology on unlabeled data of 1241 users collected from OSN users via our online survey platform featuring user interests and activities based upon which users with similar social behavioral patterns are recommended to each other. The model employs a variety of techniques including user-based collaborative filtering (UBCF) approach and graph-based approach friend-of-friend recommendation (FOF). The model offers unique solutions to common problems of FRS such as data sparsity by using dimensionality technique called non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) to create a dense representation of the collected data and reduce its sparsity as well as providing seamless integration with other FRSs. The evaluation of the hybrid FR model shows positive correlation of Pearson correlation coefficient (PCC) compared to the baseline used.

The Dual Notion of St-Polyform Modules

The concept of St-Polyform modules, was introduced and studied by Ahmed in [1], where a module M is called St-polyform, if for every submodule N of M and for any homomorphism 𝑓:N M; ker𝑓 is St-closed submodule in N. The novelty of this paper is to dualize this class of modules, the authors call it CSt-polyform modules, and according to this dualizations, some results which appeared in [1] are dualized for example we prove that in the class of hollow modules, every CSt-polyform module is coquasi-Dedekind. In addition, several important properties of CSt-polyform module are established, and other characterization of CSt-polyform is given. Moreover, many relationships of CSt-polyform modules with other related concepts are

Location Aspect Based Sentiment Analyzer for Hotel Recommender System

Recently personal recommender system has spread fast, because of its role in helping users to make their decision. Location-based recommender systems are one of these systems. These systems are working by sensing the location of the person and suggest the best services to him in his area. Unfortunately, these systems that depend on explicit user rating suffering from cold start and sparsity problems. The proposed system depends on the current user position to recommend a hotel to him, and on reviews analysis. The hybrid sentiment analyzer consists of supervised sentiment analyzer and the second stage is lexicon sentiment analyzer. This system has a contribute over the sentiment analyzer by extracting the aspects that users have been ment

Intelligent System for Multi-Layer Lip Reading Based Microlearning

     Intelligent systems can be used to build systems that simulate human behavior. One such system is lip reading. Hence, lip reading is considered one of the hardest problems in image analysis, and thus machine learning is used to solve this problem, which achieves remarkable results, especially when using a deep neural network, in which it dives deeply into the texture of any input. Microlearning is the new trend in E-learning. It is based on small pieces of information to make the learning process easier and more productive. In this paper, a proposed system for multi-layer lip reading is presented. The proposed system is based on micro content (letters) to achieve the lip reading process using deep learning and auto-correction mo

Pilot Based Channel Estimation and Synchronization in OFDM System

Channel estimation and synchronization are considered the most challenging issues in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system. OFDM is highly affected by synchronization errors that cause reduction in subcarriers orthogonality, leading to significant performance degradation. The synchronization errors cause two issues: Symbol Time Offset (STO), which produces inter symbol interference (ISI) and Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO), which results in inter carrier interference (ICI). The aim of the research is to simulate Comb type pilot based channel estimation for OFDM system showing the effect of pilot numbers on the channel estimation performance and propose a modified estimation method for STO with less numb

Performance Comparison between Recycled Single Stage and Double Stage Hydrocyclones

   This research presents a comparison of performance between recycled single stage and double stage hydrocyclones in separating water from water/kerosene emulsion. The comparison included several factors such as: inlet flow rate (3,5,7,9, and 11 L/min), water feed concentration (5% and 15% by volume), and split ratio (0.1 and 0.9). The comparison extended to include the recycle operation; once and twice recycles. The results showed that increasing flow rate as well as the split ratio enhancing the separation efficiency for the two modes of operation. On the contrary, reducing the feed concentration gave high efficiencies for the modes. The operation with two cycles was more efficient than one cycle. The maximum obtained effici

Motivations of Volunteers in Jordan: An Exploratory Study Based on a Sample of University Students within the Context of their Social Relations

Volunteerism is an element included in many human cultures. It represents a positive cooperative act between individuals and groups. It expresses the social value systems. As a social phenomenon, it develops in societies according to innumerous circumstances and conditions. This study uses a functional approach that assumes that volunteering performs six functions for volunteers. Namely, we assume that volunteering (1) creates a sense of protection (2) meets significant cultural values (3) improves professional status of volunteers, (4) strengthens their social relationships, (5) helps them achieve a better understanding of life, and finally, (6) enhances their outlook and self-esteem. The central aim of the study is to discuss these fun

Exercises based on the phosphogenic energy system to develop the ability to perform with precision and accuracy

Each sport has its own energy requirements that differ from the energy requirements of other sports, and a different method is used in each of them, so the trainer must first rely on the principle of privacy in training first, that is, privacy according to the working energy system, that is, he defines the controlling energy system In that event, and how the muscles use the available energy to perform according to the energy production systems. As we find the serving skill is the first volleyball skill with which the team starts the match in order to be able to gain points directly, through knowledge it turns out that there is a weakness in the skill performance, especially the skill of serving and being The key to victory for volle

Modified Elman Neural-PID Controller Design for DC-DC Buck Converter System Based on Dolphin Echolocation Optimization

This paper describes a new proposed structure of the Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) controller based on modified Elman neural network for the DC-DC buck converter system which is used in battery operation of the portable devices. The Dolphin Echolocation Optimization (DEO) algorithm is considered as a perfect on-line tuning technique therefore, it was used for tuning and obtaining the parameters of the modified Elman neural-PID controller to avoid the local minimum problem during learning the proposed controller. Simulation results show that the best weight parameters of the proposed controller, which are taken from the DEO, lead to find the best action and unsaturated state that will stabilize the Buck converter system performan
