Title: Handwritten Text Segmentation using Average Longest Path Algorithm
Authors: Dhaval Salvi, Jun Zhou, Jarrell Waggoner, and Song Wang
Abstract: Offline handwritten text recognition is a very challenging problem. Aside from the large variation of different hand-writing styles, neighboring characters within a word are usually connected, and we may need to segment a word into individual characters for accurate character recognition. Many existing methods achieve text segmentation by evaluating the local stroke geometry and imposing constraint on the size of each resulting character, such as the character width, height and aspect ratio. These constraints are well suited for printed texts, but may not hold for handwritten texts. Other methods apply holistic approach by using setof lexicons to guide and correct the segmentation and recognition. This approach may fail when the lexicon domain is insufficient. In this paper, we present a new global non-holistic method for handwritten text segmentation, which does not make any limiting assumptions on the characterize and the number of characters in a word. Specifically, the proposed method finds the text segmentation with the maximum average likeliness for the resulting characters. For this purpose, we use a graph model that describes the possible locations for segmenting neighboring characters, and we then develop an average longest path algorithm to identify the globally optimal segmentation. We conduct experiments on real images of handwritten texts taken from the IAM handwriting database and compare the performance of the proposed method against an existing text segmentation algorithm that uses dynamic programming.

Title: Influence of Sci-Fi Films on Artificial Intelligence and Vice-Versa
Authors: D Lorenk, M Tarhaniov and P Sincak
Abstract: Sci-fi technological movie domain is an important part of human culture. The paper focus on comparison study of selected robotics sci-fi movie domain from a technological point of view. It is necessary to accomplish technological analysis of studied sci-fi movies and able to distinguish about possible current technology and future direction of the artificial intelligence in the domain of Robot intelligence. The review of existing movies which are in fact influencing thinking of humans is essential since it can influence a future research direction in AI. This information is interesting for inspiration of students and research associates in theory and applications. In conclusion, we envision potential problems of social networks and impact of Internet of things facts which is becoming a reality with IPv6 protocol. The goal of the paper is also to underline the importance of such cultural phenomena as sci-fi movies for the future of humanity.

Title: Tell Me More? The Effects of Mental Model Soundness on Personalizing an Intelligent Agent
Authors: Todd Kulesza, Simone Stumpf, Margaret Burnett, Irwin Kwan
Abstract: What does a user need to know to productively work with an intelligent agent? Intelligent agents and recommender systems are gaining widespread use, potentially creating a need for end users to understand how these systems operate in order to fix their agents personalized behavior. This paper explores the effects of mental model soundness on such personalization by providing structural knowledge of a music recommender system in an empirical study. Our findings show that participants were able to quickly build sound mental models of the recommender system’s reasoning, and that participants who most improved their mental models during the study were significantly more likely to make the recommender operate to their satisfaction. These results suggest that by helping end users understand a system’s reasoning, intelligent agents may elicit more and better feedback, thus more closely aligning their output with each user’s intentions.

Title: A survey of skyline processing in highly distributed environments
Authors: Katja Hose Akrivi Vlachou
Abstract: During the last decades, data management and storage have become increasingly distributed. Advanced query operators, such as skyline queries, are necessary in order to help users to handle the huge amount of available data by identifying a set of interesting data objects. Skyline query processing in highly distributed environments poses inherent challenges and demands and requires non-traditional techniques due to the distribution of content and the lack of global knowledge. This paper surveys this interesting and still evolving research area, so that readers can easily obtain an overview of the state-of-the-art. We outline the objectives and the main principles that any distributed skyline approach have to fulfill, leading to useful guidelines for developing algorithms for distributed skyline processing. We review in detail existing approaches that are applicable for highly distributed environments, clarify the assumptions of each approach, and provide a comparative performance analysis. Moreover, we study the skyline variants each approach supports. Our analysis leads to taxonomy of existing approaches. Finally, we present interesting research topics on distributed skyline computation that have not yet been explored.
