Using Deep Learning to Predict Stock Movements Direction in Emerging Markets: The Case of Qatar Stock Exchange
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2020 , Conference Paper)Deep learning approaches have been utilized to predict stocks. In this study, we use convolutional neural network (CNN) to predict stocks direction in Qatar stock exchange (QE) as a case of emerging markets. Prediction in ... -
Using driving simulator to study the effect of crash fact signs on speeding behaviour along freeways
( Taylor & Francis , 2022 , Article)A driving simulator study was utilized to evaluate a potential countermeasure for speeding behaviour in order to reduce speed spillover. The behaviour of 56 subjects was observed. Participants drove a freeway for 5300 ... -
Using e-journaling to improve self-regulated learning in introductory computer programming course
( IEEE , 2014 , Conference Paper)Usually, students face different difficulties when learning computer programming, this leads many of them to drop out of computing major, or continue with fear of programming assignments in subsequent courses. The main ... -
Using electric power to synthesize resorcinol-formaldehyde gels with enhanced characteristics
( John Wiley and Sons Ltd , 2020 , Article)A novel electrochemical approach was introduced for crosslinking resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) gels at room temperature without utilizing a catalyst or a buffer. The electrochemically cross-linked gels and their subsequent ... -
Using Electrospinning Technique for Preparation of Cobalt Hydroxide Nanoparticles

Using Financial Options for Pricing of IaaS Cloud Resources
( IEEE Computer Society , 2017 , Conference Paper)IaaS cloud resources are offered by cloud providers using various pricing schemes such as reservation, scheduled, on-demand and spot pricing. Such pricing models suffer from either wasteful payment in case of underutilization ... -
Using flipped classroom approach to teach computer programming
( IEEE , 2016 , Conference Paper)Flipped classroom approach has been increasingly adopted in higher institutions. Although this approach has many advantages, there are also many challenges that should be considered. In this paper, we discuss the suitability ... -
Using fringes for minimal conceptual decomposition of binary contexts
( World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd , 2012 , Article)Extracting knowledge from huge data in a reasonable time is still a challenging problem. Most real data (structured or not) can be mapped to an equivalent binary context, with or without using a scaling method, as for ... -
Using geodesic space density gradients for network community detection
( IEEE Computer Society , 2017 , Article)Many real world complex systems naturally map to network data structures instead of geometric spaces because the only available information is the presence or absence of a link between two entities in the system. To enable ... -
