TL;DR: In this paper, the relative abundance of tree palms in tropical and subtropical moist forests was quantified to help improve understanding of tropical forests and reduce uncertainty about these ecosystems under climate change.
Abstract: Aim: Palms are an iconic, diverse and often abundant component of tropical ecosystems that provide many ecosystem services. Being monocots, tree palms are evolutionarily, morphologically and physiologically distinct from other trees, and these differences have important consequences for ecosystem services (e.g., carbon sequestration and storage) and in terms of responses to climate change. We quantified global patterns of tree palm relative abundance to help improve understanding of tropical forests and reduce uncertainty about these ecosystems under climate change. Location: Tropical and subtropical moist forests. Time period: Current. Major taxa studied: Palms (Arecaceae). Methods: We assembled a pantropical dataset of 2,548 forest plots (covering 1,191 ha) and quantified tree palm (i.e., ≥10 cm diameter at breast height) abundance relative to co-occurring non-palm trees. We compared the relative abundance of tree palms across biogeographical realms and tested for associations with palaeoclimate stability, current climate, edaphic conditions and metrics of forest structure. Results: On average, the relative abundance of tree palms was more than five times larger between Neotropical locations and other biogeographical realms. Tree palms were absent in most locations outside the Neotropics but present in >80% of Neotropical locations. The relative abundance of tree palms was more strongly associated with local conditions (e.g., higher mean annual precipitation, lower soil fertility, shallower water table and lower plot mean wood density) than metrics of long-term climate stability. Life-form diversity also influenced the patterns; palm assemblages outside the Neotropics comprise many non-tree (e.g., climbing) palms. Finally, we show that tree palms can influence estimates of above-ground biomass, but the magnitude and direction of the effect require additional work. Conclusions: Tree palms are not only quintessentially tropical, but they are also overwhelmingly Neotropical. Future work to understand the contributions of tree palms to biomass estimates and carbon cycling will be particularly crucial in Neotropical forests.

19 Jul 2010TL;DR: A model that inherits the click information of rare/new ads from other semantically related ads, derived from the query ad click-through graphs and advertisers account information, gives a very good prediction for the CTR values.
Abstract: Ads on the search engine (SE) are generally ranked based on their Click-through rates (CTR). Hence, accurately predicting the CTR of an ad is of paramount importance for maximizing the SE's revenue. We present a model that inherits the click information of rare/new ads from other semantically related ads. The semantic features are derived from the query ad click-through graphs and advertisers account information. We show that the model learned using these features give a very good prediction for the CTR values.

20 Jan 2013TL;DR: This work constructs a small set of good sequences such that for every program class there exists a near-optimal optimization sequence in the good sequences set and completely circumvents the need to solve the program classification problem.
Abstract: The compiler optimizations we enable and the order in which we apply them on a program have a substantial impact on the program execution time. Compilers provide default optimization sequences which can give good program speedup. As the default sequences have to optimize programs with different characteristics, they embed in them multiple subsequences which can optimize different classes of programs. These multiple subsequences may falsely interact with each other and affect the potential program speedup achievable. Instead of searching for a single universally optimal sequence, we can construct a small set of good sequences such that for every program class there exists a near-optimal optimization sequence in the good sequences set. If we can construct such a good sequences set which covers all the program classes in the program space, then we can choose the best sequence for a program by trying all the sequences in the good sequences set. This approach completely circumvents the need to solve the program classification problem. Using a sequence set size of around 10 we got an average speedup up to 14p on PolyBench programs and up to 12p on MiBench programs. Our approach is quite different from either the iterative compilation or machine-learning-based prediction modeling techniques proposed in the literature so far. We use different training and test datasets for cross-validation as against the Leave-One-Out cross-validation technique.

TL;DR: A new fuzzy rule based classifier is presented in this paper with an aim to provide Healthcare-as-a-Service and results obtained confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme with respect to various performance evaluation metrics in cloud computing environment.
Abstract: With advancements in information and communication technology, there is a steep increase in the remote healthcare applications in which patients can get treatment from the remote places also. The data collected about the patients by remote healthcare applications constitute big data because it varies with volume, velocity, variety, veracity, and value. To process such a large collection of heterogeneous data is one of the biggest challenges which requires a specialized approach. To address this challenge, a new fuzzy rule based classifier is presented in this paper with an aim to provide Healthcare-as-a-Service. The proposed scheme is based upon the initial cluster formation, retrieval, and processing of the big data in cloud environment. Then, a fuzzy rule based classifier is designed for efficient decision making for data classification in the proposed scheme. To perform inferencing from the collected data, membership functions are designed for fuzzification and defuzzification processes. The proposed scheme is evaluated on various evaluation metrics, such as average response time, accuracy, computation cost, classification time, and false positive ratio. The results obtained confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme with respect to various performance evaluation metrics in cloud computing environment.
