In order to improve the reliability of cost estimation results using CBR, there has been a continuous issue on similarity measurement to accurately compute the distance among attributes and cases to retrieve the most similar singular or plural cases. However, these existing similarity measures have limitations in taking the covariance among attributes into consideration and reflecting the effects of covariance in computation of distances among attributes. To deal with this challenging issue, this research examines the weighted Mahalanobis distance based similarity measure applied to CBR cost estimation and carries out the comparative study on the existing distance measurement methods of CBR. To validate the suggest CBR cost model, leave-one-out cross validation (LOOCV) using two different sets of simulation data are carried out. Consequently, this research is expected to provide an analysis of covariance effects in similarity measurement and a basis for further research on the fundamentals of case retrieval.

The fractal study in river basin has been performed for the sinuosity of an individual stream and bifurcation of the stream network. The previous studies has suggested many methods or equations for the fractal dimension estimation in a river network. This study used those many equations for the estimation of fractal dimensions on the streams such as Bokha, Gonjiam, and Pocheon streams. The estimated dimensions are in the range of 1 to 1.359 for the individual stream and 1.634 to 2 for the stream network. The most of equations were suggested based on the assumption of self-similarity of a river basin for the individual stream and stream network. However, the real river basin could be characterized by self-affinity rather than self-similarity. Even though we estimate the dimensions by using many equations, we could not recommend which one is better equation for the estimation of fractal dimension. This might be from the self-similarity assumption of equations. Therefore, the assumption and research work of self-affinity will be needed for the appropriate estimation of fractal dimension in river basin.

In this paper, we propose a method to measure the similarity between golf swings in videos. As it is known that deep learning-based artificial intelligence technology is effective in the field of computer vision, attempts to utilize artificial intelligence in video-based sports data analysis are increasing. In this study, the joint coordinates of a person in a golf swing video were obtained using a deep learning-based pose estimation model, and based on this, the similarity of each swing segment was measured. For the evaluation of the proposed method, driver swing videos from the GolfDB dataset were used. As a result of measuring swing similarity by pairing swing videos of a total of 36 players, 26 players evaluated that their other swing sequence was the most similar, and the average ranking of similarity was confirmed to be about 5th. This ensured that the similarity could be measured in detail even when the motion was performed similarly.

We propose a semi-supervised learning algorithm based on a form of regularization that incorporates similarity and dissimilarity penalty terms. Our approach uses a graph-based encoding of similarity and dissimilarity. We also present a model-selection method which employs cross-validation techniques to choose hyperparameters which affect the performance of the proposed method. Simulations using two types of dat sets demonstrate that the proposed method is promising.

The Euclidean distance is sensitive to the absolute offsets of time sequences, so it is not a suitable similarity measure in terms of shape. In this paper. we propose an indexing scheme for efficient matching and retrieval of time sequences based on the minimum distance. The minimum distance can give a better estimation of similarity in shape between two time sequences. Our indexing scheme can match time sequences of similar shapes irrespective of their vortical positions and guarantees no false dismissals

Given a query (a health question), retrieval of relevant frequently asked questions (FAQs) is essential as the FAQs provide both reliable and readable information to healthcare consumers. The retrieval requires the estimation of the semantic similarity between the query and each FAQ. The similarity estimation is challenging as semantic structures of Chinese healthcare FAQs are quite different from those of the FAQs in other domains. In this paper, we propose a conceptual model for Chinese healthcare FAQs, and based on the conceptual model, present a technique ECA that estimates conceptual similarities between FAQs. Empirical evaluation shows that ECA can help various kinds of retrievers to rank relevant FAQs significantly higher. We also make ECA online to provide services for FAQ retrievers.

Malware has its own unique behavior characteristics, like DNA for living things. To respond APT (Advanced Persistent Threat) attacks in advance, it needs to extract behavioral characteristics from malware. To this end, it needs to do classification for each malware based on its behavioral similarity. In this paper, various similarity of Windows malware is estimated; and based on these similarity values, malware's family is predicted. The similarity measures used in this paper are as follows: 'TF-IDF cosine similarity', 'Nilsimsa similarity', 'malware function cosine similarity' and 'Jaccard similarity'. As a result, we find the prediction rate for each similarity measure is widely different. Although, there is no similarity measure which can be applied to malware classification with high accuracy, this result can be helpful to select a similarity measure to classify specific malware family.

Estimating software development effort remains a complex problem attracting considerable research attention. Improving the estimation techniques available to project managers would facilitate more effective control of time and budgets in software development as well as market. However, estimation is difficult because of its similarity to export judgment approaches and fur its potential as an expert assistant in support of human judgment. Especially, in software development for DCS (Distributed Control System), because of infrastructure software related to target-machines hardware and process characteristics should be considered, estimating software development effort is more complex. This paper suggests software development effort estimation technique using neural network. The methods considered are based on COCOMO and case-based projects. Estimation results applied to case-based project appeared to have value fur software development effort estimation models.

We propose a robust visual object tracking algorithm fusing a convolutional neural network tracker trained offline from a large number of video repositories and a color histogram based tracker to track objects for mixing immersive audio. Our algorithm addresses the problem of occlusion and large movements of the CNN based GOTURN generic object tracker. The key idea is the offline training of a binary classifier with the color histogram similarity values estimated via both trackers used in this method to opt appropriate tracker for target tracking and update both trackers with the predicted bounding box position of the target to continue tracking. Furthermore, a histogram similarity constraint is applied before updating the trackers to maximize the tracking accuracy. Finally, we compute the depth(z) of the target object by one of the prominent unsupervised monocular depth estimation algorithms to ensure the necessary 3D position of the tracked object to mix the immersive audio into that object. Our proposed algorithm demonstrates about 2% improved accuracy over the outperforming GOTURN algorithm in the existing VOT2014 tracking benchmark. Additionally, our tracker also works well to track multiple objects utilizing the concept of single object tracker but no demonstrations on any MOT benchmark.
