Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleOptimizing Feature Construction Process for Dynamic Aggregation of Relational AttributesRayner AlfredProblem statement: The importance of input representation has been recognized already in machine learning. Feature construction is one of the methods used to generate relevant features for learning data. This study addressed the question whether or not the descriptive accuracy of the DARA algorithm benefits from the feature construction process. In other words, this paper discusses the application of genetic … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 6,929 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBioDARA: Data Summarization Approach to Extracting Bio-Medical Structuring InformationChung Seng Kheau, Rayner Alfred, Joe Henry ObitProblem statement: Due to the ever growing amount of biomedical datasets stored in multiple tables, Information Extraction (IE) from these datasets is increasingly recognized as one of the crucial technologies in bioinformatics. However, for IE to be practically applicable, adaptability of a system is crucial, considering extremely diverse demands in biomedical IE application. One should be able to extract a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 24 Oct 2011 · 7,936 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Fertilization Frequency and Amount on the Chemometric Characteristics, Physiology, and Yield of Tomato Under Substrate CultivationEnling Ji, Qianqian Di, Qingjie Du et al.This study examined the effects of fertilization frequency and quantity on growth, yield, and quality of tomatoes under substrate cultivation. A factorial experiment evaluated two fertilization frequencies (every 5 or 10 days) and three fertilization levels (15.69, 31.38, or 62.76 kg·ha⁻¹), along with an unfertilized control. Plants were assessed for growth and development, photosynthetic pigment content, gas exchange parameters, nutrient … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2026 · 1,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSWITCHING-ALGEBRAIC ANALYSIS OF RELATIONAL DATABASESAli Muhammad Ali Rushdi, Omar Mohammed Ba-RukabThere is an established equivalence between relational database Functional Dependencies (FDs) and a fragment of switching algebra that is built typically of Horn clauses. This equivalence pertains to both concepts and procedures of the FD relational database domain and the switching algebraic domain. This study is an exposition of the use of switching-algebraic tools in solving problems typically encountered in … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 18 Apr 2014 · 6,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Validation of a Measure of Relational Leadership: Implications for Leadership Theory and PoliciesJames CarifioProblem statement: This study reports the development and validation of the Relational Leadership Questionnaire (RLQ). The consensus attributes of relational leadership are that the relational leader is caring, empowering, ethical, inclusive and has vision. These characteristics also reflect the newest theory and view of leadership in the psychological literature as well. Approach: For each of these 5 attributes, 10 Likert … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 20 Jun 2010 · 40,434 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiscretization Numerical Data for Relational Data with One-to-Many RelationsRayner AlfredProblem statement: Handling numerical data stored in a relational database has been performed differently from handling those numerical data stored in a single table due to the multiple occurrences (one-to-many association) of an individual record in the non-target table and non-determinate relations between tables. Numbers in Multi-Relational Data Mining (MRDM) were often discretized, after considering the schema of the relational … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRobust and Blind Watermarking of Relational Database SystemsA. Al-Haj, A. OdehProblem statement: Digital multimedia watermarking technology was suggested in the last decade to embed copyright information in digital objects such images, audio and video. However, the increasing use of relational database systems in many real-life applications created an ever increasing need for watermarking database systems. As a result, watermarking relational database systems is now merging as a research area that … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTopologies Induced by Relations with ApplicationsA. S. SalamaTopological structures induced by relations represents the process of extracting interesting decision rules from data. The attributes reduction and the calculation of core are the essentials to extract the decision rules. Finding the reducts, core and decision rules topologically is a new mathematical tool for discovering attribute dependencies in information systems.
