An ontology learning system for customer needs representation in product development by Chen, Xingyu, Chen, Chun-Hsien, Leong, Kah Fai, Jiang, Xing

“…The conventional process of interpreting customer statements relies on imprecise information, making it highly unlikely, if not impossible, to acquire accurate need statements for the front-end process of product development. To deal with this problem, an ontology-learning customer needs representation (OCNR) system is proposed in this paper. …”

The suppression of the autonomous self in Singapore. by Li, Hansen.

“…Rem Koolhaas, in his architectural essay “Singapore Songlines”, asserts that: Singapore is clearly not free, but at the same time it is difficult to identify what precisely is unfree, how and where the exact repression occurs, to what extent its magnetic field … is imposed or, more ambiguously, [is] the result of a “deal,” a perceived common interest: liberties suspended in return for the unlimited benefits of a roller-coaster of development that, in 30 years, has only gone up. …”

Multiple-level feature-based measure for retargeted image quality by Zhang, Yabin, Lin, Weisi, Li, Qiaohong, Cheng, Wentao, Zhang, Xinfeng

“…Furthermore, a high-level face block similarity feature is designed to deal with sensitive region deformation. The multiple-level features are complementary as they quantify different aspects of quality degradation in the retargeted image, and the MLF measure learned by regression is used to predict the perceptual quality of retargeted images. …”
