In order to enable clustering to be done under a lower dimension, a new feature selection method for clustering is proposed. This method has three steps which are all carried out in a wrapper framework. First, all the original features are ranked according to their importance. An evaluation function E(f) used to evaluate the importance of a feature is introduced. Secondly, the set of important features is selected sequentially. Finally, the possible redundant features are removed from the important feature subset. Because the features are selected sequentially, it is not necessary to search through the large feature subset space, thus the efficiency can be improved. Experimental results show that the set of important features for clustering can be found and those unimportant features or features that may hinder the clustering task will be discarded by this method.
The emphasis of component system regression testing is retesting of the event interaction between updated components and other components in a system.A component system regression testing method based on a new component testing association model (CTAM) is proposed.First,the modification-affected component groups are identified by the impact analysis on CTAM,and each component in this group is assigned with an influence degree.Then,previous test cases are selected according to the influence degree,to generate the minimal regression test suite.Compared with traditional methods,CTAM is derived from the statistic on the interactive events that occurred in previous test executions,and focuses on the complicated relationship between components,which is more applicable to the component system regression testing.
This paper proposes a checking method based on mutual instances and discusses three key problems in the method: how to deal with mistakes in the mutual instances and how to deal with too many or too few mutual instances. It provides the checking based on the weighted mutual instances considering fault tolerance, gives a way to partition the large-scale mutual instances, and proposes a process greatly reducing the manual annotation work to get more mutual instances. Intension annotation that improves the checking method is also discussed. The method is practical and effective to check subsumption relations between concept queries in different ontologies based on mutual instances.

Fuzzy ontologics are efficient tools to handle fuzzy and uncertain knowledge on the semantic web; but there are heterogeneity problems when gaining interoperability among different fuzzy ontologies. This paper uses concept approximation between fuzzy ontologies based on instances to solve the heterogeneity problems. It firstly proposes an instance selection technology based on instance clustering and weighting to unify the fuzzy interpretation of different ontologies and reduce the number of instances to increase the efficiency. Then the paper resolves the problem of computing the approximations of concepts into the problem of computing the least upper approximations of atom concepts. It optimizes the search strategies by extending atom concept sets and defining the least upper bounds of concepts to reduce the searching space of the problem. An efficient algorithm for searching the least upper bounds of concept is given.
