A core source of raw information used as inputs to the reputation systems of online services is the feedback ratings provided by users. However, it is impossible that all users rate services with the same criteria and so ratings of different users are incommensurable. Meanwhile, users are not necessarily willing to provide honest feedbacks. Thus, aggregating dishonest cardinal ratings into reputation will potentially lead to unreliable and misleading reputation. In this paper, we propose a reputation model that aggregates ordinal user preferences rather than cardinal ratings for online services with user incentive. A distance metric is defined to measure the discrepancy between ordinal preferences. Then an optimal reputation model with the attributes of incentive compatible and individually rational is proposed. We design a B&B algorithm to solve the optimization problem so that a reputation vector that maximizes the total value of all users can be found efficiently. A comprehensive experimental study and performance analysis are conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed method.
In computer vision applications, recognizing a 3D object is considered an effective research area. The recognition of 3D objects can be accomplished by building accurate 3D models of these objects. The 3D object recon...

This work focuses on breast cancer classification in mammograms using SVMs classifier and histogram of oriented gradients features. The envisioned system is designed in such a way to enhance the diagnostic precision through integration of the virtues of both SVMs and HOG in identifying discriminative characteristics of breast tissue. Special emphasis was given on comparing and testing the performance of the intended model with other models on a public mammogram dataset containing both malignant and benign cases; the optimized SVM model provided an accuracy of 92%. 5%, sensitivity of 91. 0%, specificity of 93. 74 (fig 5) and 8%, and an AUC-ROC of 0. 95. This study shows that the method is efficient in discriminating between the malignant and benign first axillary lymph node tissue. The developed CAD system was found to possess the prospect of becoming a valuable support system for radiologists in the early detection of breast cancer. Keywords: Breast cancer; Mammograms; Support Vector Machines; Histogram of Oriented Gradient Descent; computer-aided diagnosis.
