Relationship marketing principals of co-creating value and interactivity through a process of co-production are fundamental (e.g., Ballantyne, Egan, et al) and yet there has been little investigation into how this translates to an online socially networked context. This paper examines one such online tribal community to investigate its characteristics and examine its relationship marketing... [Journal Article]

Acceptance rate ~40%Encapsulation is one of the most fundamental programming language mechanisms available to software developers for managing the complexity of software systems. One might therefore expect clear guidelines and consistent practices to be used in mature programming languages, and particularly in object oriented (OO) languages, with their rich support for encapsulation.

Various simplified procedue have been developed, using case studies that liquefied or not during earthquake, to estimate liquefaction potential of soils. In order to address the collective knowledge built up in conventional liquefaction engineering, this paper proposed to use a artificial neural network, ANN as an alternative tools. ANN has the capability to train itself with available data... [Conference Paper]

"A" Ranked conference in Australasian ERA.Switching between windows on a computer is a frequent activity, but current switching mechanisms make it difficult to find items. We carried out a longitudinal study that recorded actual window switching behaviour. We found that window revisitation is very common, and that people spend most time working with a small set of windows and applications. We identify two design principles from these...

The concept of Multi-User Virtual Environments (MUVEs) has opened new avenues in the educational spectrum. Despite its popularity as an educational environment tool, the successful implementation of a virtual classroom is heavily reliant on the educator. This research focuses on the perceptions of educators regarding the acceptance of the MUVE as an educational tool. The Technology Acceptance... [Thesis or Dissertation]

Over the years many organizations have implemented an enterprise system (ES), also called enterprise resource planning (ERP) system, to streamline the flow of information and improve organizational effectiveness to produce business benefits which justify the ES investment. The effectiveness of these systems to achieve benefits is an area being proactively researched by both professionals and... [Thesis or Dissertation]

Advanced analysis of data streams is quickly becoming a key area of data mining research as the number of applications demanding such processing increases. Online mining when such data streams evolve over time, that is when concepts drift or change completely, is becoming one of the core issues. When tackling non-stationary concepts, ensembles of classifiers have several advantages over single... [Conference Item]

Mining of data streams must balance three evaluation dimensions: accuracy, time and memory. Excellent accuracy on data streams has been obtained with Naive Bayes Hoeffding Trees—Hoeffding Trees with naive Bayes models at the leaf nodes—albeit with increased runtime compared to standard Hoeffding Trees. In this paper, we show that runtime can be reduced by replacing naive Bayes with... [Conference Item]

Massive Online Analysis (MOA) is a software environment for implementing algorithms and running experiments for online learning from evolving data streams. MOA includes a collection of offline and online methods as well as tools for evaluation. In particular, it implements boosting, bagging, and Hoeffding Trees, all with and without Naïve Bayes classifiers at the leaves. MOA supports... [Journal Article]

This paper is about inferring markup information, a generalization of part-of-speech-tagging. We use compression models based on a marked-up training corpus and apply them to fresh, unmarked, text. In effect, this technique builds filters that extract information from text in a way that is generalized because it depends on training text rather than preprogrammed heuristics. [Conference Item]

A device for predicting the solar exposure at a location operates by gathering image data from that location with a known camera orientation. The image data is then processed to identify the sky regions and the solar exposure is predicted using a standard sun path model and tracing the rays from the sun through the processed images. Critical to the success of this technique is the image... [Conference Paper]

Aim: The aim of the study is to examine the information seeking experiences of mothers who bottle feed young infants. What are their information needs and how do they seek to fill them? What emotional impact does the information seeking process have on this group? What role can Libraries play in helping this group find information? Methodology: This research utilises Dervin's sense-making...

Many real world problems involve data which can be considered as multi-label data streams. Efficient methods exist for multi-label classification in non streaming scenarios. However, learning in evolving streaming scenarios is more challenging, as the learners must be able to adapt to change using limited time and memory. This paper proposes a new experimental framework for studying multi-label...

Meat quality is a subject of growing interest. The meat industry, in response to consumer demand for products of consistent quality, is placing more and more emphasis on quality assurance issues. Tenderness is an important quality parameter. An accurate, consistent, rapid and non-destructive method to evaluate meat tenderness is needed in the meat industry. Recent advances in the area of...

In this study, the ability of neural network models for lamb carcass classification was compared with a multivariate statistical technique with respect to the classification accuracy. The lamb carcass classification system is based on image and texture analyses. Digital images of lamb chops were used to calculate twelve image geometric variables. In addition, a set of ninety textural features... [Book]

This paper presents results of an investigation conducted to study displacement and strain field surrounding a crack tip in timber in tension using the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique. Opening mode fracture was studied with a crack parallel and perpendicular to grain and mixed-mode fracture was studied with a crack parallel to grain but located 30⁰, 45⁰, and 60⁰ with respect to...

As a result of constantly growing consumer expectations for meat quality, the meat industry is placing more and more emphasis on quality assurance issues. Fat content in meat influences some important meat quality parameters and meat marketability. Visible fat includes marbling (intramuscular) and intermuscular fat. Chemical analysis is currently used to determine the fat percentage in meat.... [Book]
