We have developed a method and system that uses mutually agreed problem structuring and self-selection to bring together meeting attendees with complementary interests. The method builds upon previous tools which facilitate structuring and to these w... Read More about Well-Connected: Promoting Collaboration by Effective Networking.

A New Image Encryption Scheme Based on Dynamic S-Boxes and Chaotic Maps (2016)
Journal Article
Rehman, A. U., Khan, J. S., Ahmad, J., & Hwang, S. O. (2016). A New Image Encryption Scheme Based on Dynamic S-Boxes and Chaotic Maps. 3D research, 7(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s13319-016-0084-9

Substitution box is a unique and nonlinear core component of block ciphers. A better designing technique of substitution box can boost up the quality of ciphertexts. In this paper, a new encryption method based on dynamic substitution boxes is propos... Read More about A New Image Encryption Scheme Based on Dynamic S-Boxes and Chaotic Maps.

Unsupervised Commonsense Knowledge Enrichment for Domain-Specific Sentiment Analysis (2016)
Journal Article
Ofek, N., Poria, S., Rokach, L., Cambria, E., Hussain, A., & Shabtai, A. (2016). Unsupervised Commonsense Knowledge Enrichment for Domain-Specific Sentiment Analysis. Cognitive Computation, 8(3), 467-477. https://doi.org/10.1007/s12559-015-9375-3

Sentiment analysis in natural language text is a challenging task involving a deep understanding of both syntax and semantics. Leveraging the polarity of multiword expressions—or concepts—rather than single words can mitigate the difficulty of such a...
