Efficient sanitization of unsafe data correlations
(
CEUR-WS
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we present a study to counter privacy violation due to unsafe data correlation. We propose a safe correlation requirement to keep correlated values bounded by l-diversity and evaluate the trade-off to be ...
Towards an ontology-driven game-based educational platform with automatic student monitoring
(
IEEE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a new educational platform for young children. It is based mainly on serious games and semantic web. The platform is used to assess and monitor the children' progress and performance in meeting preset ...
Bank efficiency assessment using a hybrid approach of random forests and data envelopment analysis
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This study introduces a three-stage integrated framework consisting of data envelopment analysis (DEA), random forest, and logistic regression to examine and predict the impact of environmental variables on banks' performance. ...
Post fault operation of a dual matrix converter fed open-end load
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates the fault tolerant control strategies for a three to five-phase dual matrix converter fed open-end load system. There are two three to five phase matrix converter at both the ends of the load. In ...
A weight-management camp followed by weekly after-school lifestyle education sessions as an obesity intervention for Qatari children: a prospective cohort study
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Background Weight-management camp interventions for obese children are eff ective for short-term weight loss. However, there is little evidence indicating how gains made with such interventions can be maintained in the ...

The focus of my research is to develop the concept of sustainable design, which involves process-design activities that lead to economic growth, environmental protection, and social progress for the current generation ...
Multi-cloud distribution of virtual functions and dynamic service deployment: OpenADN perspective
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and Service Chaining (SC) are novel service deployment approaches in the contemporary cloud environments for increased flexibility and cost efficiency to the Application Service Providers ...
Multi-objective sensor placement using the effective independence model (SPEM) for wireless sensor networks in structural health monitoring
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper studies the optimal placement problem in structural health monitoring (SHM) using wireless sensor networks (WSN). This problem is formulated as a refined multi-objective optimization problem with various constraints ...

Vector anisotropic filter for multispectral image denoising
(
SPIE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we propose an approach to extend the application of anisotropic Gaussian filtering for multi- spectral image denoising. We study the case of images corrupted with additive Gaussian noise and use sparse matrix ...
