Abstract
In this paper we introduce a new conceptualization for the reduction of the number of support vectors (SVs) for an efficient design of support vector machines. The techniques here presented provide a good balance between SVs reduction and generalization capability. Our proposal explores concepts from classification with reject option. These methods output a third class (the rejected instances) for a binary problem when a prediction cannot be given with sufficient confidence. Rejected instances along with misclassified ones are discarded from the original data to give rise to a classification problem that can be linearly solved. Our experimental study on two benchmark datasets show significant gains in terms of SVs reduction with competitive performances.

Abstract
The signal of the wireless sensor network in grounding grid, owing to energy loss, network congestion, path constraints and other factors, is easy to delay even partially losing. In order to ensure that the signal can be transmitted effectively in grounding grids for the substation, this paper presents a method based on traffic model of back-off balanced multiple sensor network cooperation model. As we all know, cognitive radio (CR) technology is adopted in multi-channel wireless networks to provide enough channels for data transmission. The MAC protocols should enable the secondary users to maintain the accurate channel state information to identify and utilize the leftover frequency spectrum in a way that constrains the level of interference to the primary users. We proposed a novel cooperation spectrum sensing scheme in which the secondary users adopt backoff-based sensing policy based on the traffic model of the primary users to maximum the throughput of the network. To obtain the full accurate information of the spectrum is a difficult task so that we propose the backoff sensing as a sub-optimal strategy. Since the secondary users sense only a subset of the channels in our proposed scheme, less time is spent to get the channel state information as more time is saved for the data transmission. And while dealing the signal data, I combine the intensity transfer method instead of the priority method. This can effectively reduce the network congestion, to ensure that the main information can be transfer well. It is also very useful to signal transmission for the Multi-sensor in Substations Grounding Grid (SGG).

Abstract
In predictive modeling tasks, knowledge about the training examples is neither fully complete nor totally incomplete. Unlike semisupervised learning, where one either has perfect knowledge about the label of the point or is completely ignorant about it, here we address a setting where, for each example, we only possess partial information about the label. Each example is described using two (or more) different feature sets or views, where neither are necessarily observed for a given example. If a single view is observed, then the class is only due to that feature set; if more views are present, the observed class label is the maximum of the values corresponding to the individual views. After formalizing this new learning concept, we propose two new learning methodologies that are adapted to this learning paradigm. We also compare their instantiation in experiments with different base models and with conventional methods. The experimental results made both on real and synthetic data sets verify the usefulness of the proposed approaches.

Abstract
Syncopation is a rhythmic phenomenon present in various musical styles and cultures. We present here a set of simple rhythmic transformations that can serve as a formalized model for syncopation. The transformations are based on fundamental features of the musical meter and syncopation, as seen from a cognitive and a musical perspective. Based on this model, rhythmic patterns can be organized in tree structures where patterns are interconnected through simple transformations. A Max4Live device is presented as a creative application of the model. It manipulates the syncopation of midi "clips" by automatically de-syncopating and syncopating the midi notes.
