Evolutionary Algorithm for Selecting Dynamic Signatures Partitioning Approach
PublikacjaIn the verification of identity, the aim is to increase effectiveness and reduce involvement of verified users. A good compromise between these issues is ensured by dynamic signature verification. The dynamic signature is represented by signals describing the position of the stylus in time. They can be used to determine the velocity or acceleration signal. Values of these signals can be analyzed, interpreted, selected, and compared....

Receiver-side fingerprinting method for color images based on a series of quaternion rotations
PublikacjaThe proposed method is a new Joint Fingerprinting and Decryption (JFD) method that uses a cipher based on quaternion rotation to encrypt color images that are then sent to all users via multicast transmission. Individual encryption keys depend on the users’ fingerprints, so that a unique fingerprint is introduced into the image during decryption for each decryption key. A simulation-based research was conducted to examine the method’s...

Things You Might Not Know about the k-Nearest Neighbors Algorithm
PublikacjaRecommender Systems aim at suggesting potentially interesting items to a user. The most common kind of Recommender Systems is Collaborative Filtering which follows an intuition that users who liked the same things in the past, are more likely to be interested in the same things in the future. One of Collaborative Filtering methods is the k Nearest Neighbors algorithm which finds k users who are the most similar to an active user...

Using contextual conditional preferences for recommendation taska: a case study in the movie domain
PublikacjaRecommendation engines aim to propose users items they are interested in by looking at the user interaction with a system. However, individual interests may be drastically influenced by the context in which decisions are taken. We present an attempt to model user interests via a set of contextual conditional preferences. We show that usage of proposed preferences gives reasonable values of the accuracy and the precision even when...

An Ontology-based Contextual Pre-filtering Technique for Recommender Systems
PublikacjaContext-aware Recommender Systems aim to provide users with the most adequate recommendations for their current situation. However, an exact context obtained from a user could be too specific and may not have enough data for accurate rating prediction. This is known as the data sparsity problem. Moreover, often user preference representation depends on the domain or the specific recommendation approach used. Therefore, a big effort...
