High-quality content-based music similarity retrieval methods are non-vectorial and use non-metric divergence measures, which prevents the expansion of music recommendation systems. We presents a GPU-based method to s...

In order to provide citizens with safe, convenient and comfortable services and infrastructure in a metropolis, the prediction of passenger flows in the metro-net of subway system has become more important than ever before. Al- though a great number of prediction methods have been pre- sented in the field of transportation, all of them belong to the station oriented approach, which is not well suited to the Bei- jing subway system. This paper proposes a novel metro-net oriented method, called the probability tree based passenger flow model, which is also based on historic origin-destination (OD) information. First it learns and obtains the appearance probabilities for each kind of OD pair. For the real-time origin datum, the destination datum is calculated, and then several kinds of passenger flow in the metro-net can be pre- dicted by gathering all the contributions. The results of exper- iments, using the historical data of Beijing subway, show that although the proposed method has lower performance than existing prediction approaches for forecasting exit passenger flows, it is able to predict several additional kinds of passen- ger flow in stations and throughout the subway system; and it is a more feasible, suitable, and advanced passenger flow prediction model for Beijing subway system.

Many algorithms have been proposed to statically assign files in parallel I/O systems. Most of them were built on the basis that the underlying storage devices are homogeneous, while the wide use of SSDs makes hybrid storage architecture composed of SSDs and HDDs to be adopted in many parallel I/O systems. In this way, the previous static assignment algorithms could not fulfill the need of this new storage architecture any more. In this paper, we first develop an extensive hybrid parallel I/O system, in which the SSDs and HDDs are laid in the same system level. Then we build the performance model for both SSDs and HDDs in order to find the appropriate roles for them in the parallel I/O system. Based on the performance model, we propose a novel static file assignment algorithm named HySF for the hybrid parallel I/O system targeted to acquire low response time and load balancing. We reach the low response time goal by assigning files to the appropriate respective storage medium and load balancing goal by sorting the files by the access rate. The experiment results show that the HySF algorithm achieves much better performance on mean response time than the other algorithms and presents great flexibility.

Current query by humming system can hardly be extended to large massive database as most of them adopt the features extracted from MIDI files which are not widely used and the very time-consuming match methods. In this work, we regard query by humming as a subsequence similarity match problem and exploit the modified SPRING algorithm instead of DTW as the core match method to compare the melody feature extracted from polyphonic music. The SPRING algorithm reduces the algorithm complexity of subsequence match dramatically. Furthermore, we also make it possible for our system to achieve a high speedup over the serial version on different GPU platforms. Experimental results show that our system has more advantages over the state of the art subsequence match method, and has a good scalability to massive database. The processing capacity can reach to thousands of sequences match per second under down sampling. At the same time, the retrieval accuracy results related to all aspects of query by humming point out the encountered problems and the future direction.

Attribute reduction is one of the kernel components in the rough set theory, which has been successfully applied in many fields. This paper firstly analyzes the major drawbacks that most of the current algorithmic approaches hold. Then it proposes a novel heuristic algorithm, which redefines the significance function of attributes using mutual information and conditional entropy. Also this paper considers the redundancy variation of the existing attributes within the reduct set influenced by the newly-added elements. Besides, the attribute dependency measurement is modified instead of common entropy-based assessment during the procedure in this article. The experimental result shows that our algorithm can obtain the reduct set with minimal number of members under most circumstances with faster convergence rate than other entropy-based methods.

Improving the energy efficiency of high performance clusters has become important research issue. We proposed a new algorithm that reduces energy consumption of precedence constrained parallel tasks in power-scalable clusters. To reduce energy consumption without increasing the schedule length, our algorithm reclaims both static and dynamic slack time and employs different frequency adjusting techniques in different slack time. The optimal frequency is obtained through analyzing the precedence constraints of parallel tasks. We conducted experiments to compare the proposed algorithm with two other existing algorithms. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can get better energy efficiency without increasing the make span.

The tile assembly model is a highly distributed parallel model of molecular computation. Plenty of experiments have proved that the simple binary arithmetic could be fulfilled by the process of self-assembly of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) tiles. Finite field GF(2n) is one of the most commonly used mathematic sets. A DNA computing system was designed based on the tile assembly model and applied to perform the operation of square over finite field GF(2n). One concrete example is proposed to show the details of our tile assembly system.
