In this paper, we conduct a preliminary study about newly established course evaluation survey given to the students by our institution. This contains several free-text questions which generates more qualitative but also voluminous unstructured feedback compared previous Likert scale question-based survey. Our aim is apply data mining techniques extract knowledge from these surveys, with goal help educators and administrators gain insight into student sentiment views. Specifically, text...

Abstract The goal of this research is to develop an algorithm that accurately segments high‐resolution images, where linear features, such as roads, are corrupted by noise. In there two types noises obstacles road segmentation. Noise could be within areas (such cars, water, differences in composite surface mix) or unwanted contents outside areas, like buildings and trees. To remove contents, the geographical information from United States Geographical Survey (USGS) used. USGS provides a...

The level of service is an important aspect the operation and management at a railway passenger station. Particularly, in waiting room (LOSWR) one most influential factors deciding passengers’ satisfaction. This paper proposes model for finding LOSWR based on maximum number passengers, Arena simulation that simulates aggregation behaviors presented analyzing LOSWR. Through simulation, we demonstrate how advanced arrival time accompany rate influence passengers In addition, also illustrates...

Driving simulators have been used in many traffic studies because experiments driving are much safer and cheaper than the ones real world. simulation integrates software hardware components, an important one of which is road database. Today most existing databases fixed creation new a time-consuming task This may limit users from developing wanted scenarios. In this paper, method introduced for automatically creating given design parameters.

According to recent studies published in AI Magazine (2005), 2000, "people aged 65 and older made up 12.3 percent of the U.S. population, while by 2030, they will constitute 19.2 percent, after which growth is projected level off so that this cohort represents 20 population 2050." In response respective needs, National Institute Science Technology (NIST), Intelligent Systems Division, began Healthcare Mobility Project address healthcare issue patient lift mobility, developing Home Lift,...

This project used a driving simulator to investigate patterns of drivers’ behavior during rainfall events using different geometries. We conducted literature review previous transportation studies simulators and selected analyzed extensive field data on major highway sections throughout Florida. The at the University Central Florida simulated parameters such as speed intensity observed in field.Based our analysis, we found that drivers are not affected by light events. However, heavy has...

This paper proposes a framework where road designs can be visualised in virtual reality environment prior to any physical construction. A software algorithm for generating computer graphics models automatically enables this effective. Key design parameters such as the number of lanes, shoulder length, speed limits, turn angles, etc., must first identified and then program is developed build based on these parameters. The generated will include triangle meshes, textures, height maps which...

Incorporating social networks in the curriculum to better engage students has gained a lot of attention as result popularity with college students. We introduce EasySocial, network plugin for Eclipse, written by CS educator, second author this poster. The goal is be able easily write code using their own personal data, e.g. on Facebook or Twitter account, minimal knowledge specific API. EasySocial several features which makes it useful our classes: seamlessly embeds process authenticating...

We are proposing an undergraduate course to introduce cloud computing technologies with guidance from industry recognized certification: Amazon Certified Associate Developer. Today, providers provide many services. For example, Web Services 46 broad types of services, without mentioning the combinations these It is impossible all or even most them in one course. This poster addresses question how select important and representative subset for developing on computing. propose align our...

This paper proposes a framework of visualizing roadway plans in driving simulators. Conventionally, are demonstrated as electronic sketches when being developed by civil engineers. Several problems exist this practice. The first is that engineers examine the roads very abstract and static way. second public can hardly have access to understand these professional plans. With proposed framework, both drive simulators which be implemented either ones with projector, motion base, real cab, etc.,...
