As the technology evolved, the need to maintain a good and suitable climate in the greenhouse became imperative to ensure that the indoor plants are more productive hence the agriculture sector was not left behind. That notwithstanding, the introduction and deployment of IoT technology in agriculture solves many problems and increases crop production. This paper focuses mainly on the deployment of the Internet of Things (IoT) in acquiring real- time data of environmental parameters in the greenhouse. Various IoT technologies that can be applicable in greenhouse monitoring system was presented and in the proposed model, a method is developed to send the air temperature and humidity data obtained by the DHT11 sensor to the cloud using an ESP8266-based NodeMCU and firstly to the cloud platform Thing- Speak, and then to Adafruit.IO in which MQTT protocol was used for the reception of sensor data to the application layer referred as Human-Machine Interface. The system has been completely implemented in an actual prototype, allowing the acquiring of data and the publisher/subscriber concept used for communication. The data is published with a broker’s aid, which is responsible for transferring messages to the intended clients based on topic choice. Lastly, the functionality testing of MQTT was carried out and the results showed that the messages are successfully published.展开更多

A total of 64 participants, 39 undergraduate students (novice users) and 25 graduate students (intermediate-level users) participated in the study. The experimental design was 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 mixed design using two between-subject variables (display complexity, user experience) and two within-subject variables (display format, question difficulty). The results indicated that response time was superior for graphs (relative to tables), especially when the questions were difficult. The intermediate users seemed to adopt more extensive search strategies than novices, as revealed by an analysis of the number of changes they made to the display prior to answering questions. It was concluded that designers of data displays should consider the (a) type of display, (b) difficulty of the task, and (c) expertise level of the user to obtain optimal levels of performance.展开更多

The data is published with a broker’s aid, which is responsible for transferring messages to the intended clients based on topic choice. Lastly, the functionality testing of MQTT was carried out and the results showed that the messages are successfully published.
文摘This paper examines the visualization of symbolic data and considers the challenges rising from its complex structure.Symbolic data is usually aggregated from large data sets and used to hide entry specific details and to transform huge amounts of data(like big data)into analyzable quantities.It is also used to offer an overview in places where general trends are more important than individual details.Symbolic data comes in many forms like intervals,histograms,categories and modal multi-valued objects.Symbolic data can also be considered as a distribution.Currently,the de facto visualization approach for symbolic data is zoomstars which has many limitations.The biggest limitation is that the default distributions(histograms)are not supported in 2D as additional dimension is required.This paper proposes several new improvements for zoomstars which would enable it to visualize histograms in 2D by using a quantile or an equivalent interval approach.In addition,several improvements for categorical and modal variables are proposed for a clearer indication of presented categories.Recommendations for different approaches to zoomstars are offered depending on the data type and the desired goal.Furthermore,an alternative approach that allows visualizing the whole data set in comprehensive table-like graph,called shape encoding,is proposed.These visualizations and their usefulness are verified with three symbolic data sets in exploratory data mining phase to identify trends,similar objects and important features,detecting outliers and discrepancies in the data.

文摘The explosion of online information with the recent advent of digital technology in information processing,information storing,information sharing,natural language processing,and text mining techniques has enabled stock investors to uncover market movement and volatility from heterogeneous content.For example,a typical stock market investor reads the news,explores market sentiment,and analyzes technical details in order to make a sound decision prior to purchasing or selling a particular company’s stock.However,capturing a dynamic stock market trend is challenging owing to high fluctuation and the non-stationary nature of the stock market.Although existing studies have attempted to enhance stock prediction,few have provided a complete decision-support system for investors to retrieve real-time data from multiple sources and extract insightful information for sound decision-making.To address the above challenge,we propose a unified solution for data collection,analysis,and visualization in real-time stock market prediction to retrieve and process relevant financial data from news articles,social media,and company technical information.We aim to provide not only useful information for stock investors but also meaningful visualization that enables investors to effectively interpret storyline events affecting stock prices.Specifically,we utilize an ensemble stacking of diversified machine-learning-based estimators and innovative contextual feature engineering to predict the next day’s stock prices.Experiment results show that our proposed stock forecasting method outperforms a traditional baseline with an average mean absolute percentage error of 0.93.Our findings confirm that leveraging an ensemble scheme of machine learning methods with contextual information improves stock prediction performance.Finally,our study could be further extended to a wide variety of innovative financial applications that seek to incorporate external insight from contextual information such as large-scale online news articles and social media data.

文摘Scholarly communication of knowledge is predominantly document-based in digital repositories,and researchers find it tedious to automatically capture and process the semantics among related articles.Despite the present digital era of big data,there is a lack of visual representations of the knowledge present in scholarly articles,and a time-saving approach for a literature search and visual navigation is warranted.The majority of knowledge display tools cannot cope with current big data trends and pose limitations in meeting the requirements of automatic knowledge representation,storage,and dynamic visualization.To address this limitation,the main aim of this paper is to model the visualization of unstructured data and explore the feasibility of achieving visual navigation for researchers to gain insight into the knowledge hidden in scientific articles of digital repositories.Contemporary topics of research and practice,including modifiable risk factors leading to a dramatic increase in Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia,warrant deeper insight into the evidence-based knowledge available in the literature.The goal is to provide researchers with a visual-based easy traversal through a digital repository of research articles.This paper takes the first step in proposing a novel integrated model using knowledge maps and next-generation graph datastores to achieve a semantic visualization with domain-specific knowledge,such as dementia risk factors.The model facilitates a deep conceptual understanding of the literature by automatically establishing visual relationships among the extracted knowledge from the big data resources of research articles.It also serves as an automated tool for a visual navigation through the knowledge repository for faster identification of dementia risk factors reported in scholarly articles.Further,it facilitates a semantic visualization and domain-specific knowledge discovery from a large digital repository and their associations.In this study,the implementation of the proposed model in the Neo4j graph data repository,along with the results achieved,is presented as a proof of concept.Using scholarly research articles on dementia risk factors as a case study,automatic knowledge extraction,storage,intelligent search,and visual navigation are illustrated.The implementation of contextual knowledge and its relationship for a visual exploration by researchers show promising results in the knowledge discovery of dementia risk factors.Overall,this study demonstrates the significance of a semantic visualization with the effective use of knowledge maps and paves the way for extending visual modeling capabilities in the future.

文摘Visual data mining is one of important approach of data mining techniques. Most of them are based on computer graphic techniques but few of them exploit image-processing techniques. This paper proposes an image processing method, named RNAM (resemble neighborhood averaging method), to facilitate visual data mining, which is used to post-process the data mining result-image and help users to discover significant features and useful patterns effectively. The experiments show that the method is intuitive, easily-understanding and effectiveness. It provides a new approach for visual data mining.
文摘The study investigated user experience, display complexity, display type (tables versus graphs), and task difficulty as variables affecting the user’s ability to navigate through complex visual data. A total of 64 participants, 39 undergraduate students (novice users) and 25 graduate students (intermediate-level users) participated in the study. The experimental design was 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 mixed design using two between-subject variables (display complexity, user experience) and two within-subject variables (display format, question difficulty). The results indicated that response time was superior for graphs (relative to tables), especially when the questions were difficult. The intermediate users seemed to adopt more extensive search strategies than novices, as revealed by an analysis of the number of changes they made to the display prior to answering questions. It was concluded that designers of data displays should consider the (a) type of display, (b) difficulty of the task, and (c) expertise level of the user to obtain optimal levels of performance.
