    • Approaches based on tree-structures classifiers to protein fold prediction

      Mauricio-Sanchez, David; de Andrade Lopes, Alneu; higuihara Juarez Pedro Nelson (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017-08)
      Protein fold recognition is an important task in the biological area. Different machine learning methods such as multiclass classifiers, one-vs-all and ensemble nested dichotomies were applied to this task and, in most of the cases, multiclass approaches were used. In this paper, we compare classifiers organized in tree structures to classify folds. We used a benchmark dataset containing 125 features to predict folds, comparing different supervised methods and achieving 54% of accuracy. An approach related to tree-structure of classifiers obtained better results in comparison with a hierarchical approach.

      The purpose of using Predictive Modeling for presumptive diagnosis of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus based on symptomatic analysis is the optimization of the diagnosis phase of the disease through the process of evaluating symptomatic characteristics and daily habits, allowing the forecasting of T2DM without the need of medical exams through predictive analysis. The tool used was SAP Predictive Analytics and in order to identify the most suitable algorithm for the prediction, we evaluated them based on precision and false positive/negative relations, having found the Auto Classification algorithm as the most accurate with a 91.7% precision and a better correlation between false positives (8) and false negatives (3).
    • Sustainable Energy Model for the production of biomass briquettes based on rice husk in low-income agricultural areas in Peru.

      Arévalo, Juan; Quispe, Grimaldo; Raymundo, Carlos (Elsevier B.V., 2017-12)
      The proposed Sustainable Energy Model is based on rice husk and the development of briquettes made from agricultural waste, which will increase efficiency in the domestic sector, and potentially replace conventional polluting fuels such as firewood. Large volumes of rice husks from millers are found scattered in rural agricultural areas of the San Martin region of Peru, where people are exposed daily to the emissions of polluting gases produced by burning these wastes, causing respiratory and lung diseases. Despite present circumstances, this waste has a great energetic potential that is not yet used by society, representing an opportunity to encourage socioenvironmental development and generate added value to the husk. Based on a compaction and drying process, briquettes were obtained with 4,040 kcal / kg of heat power and 80.39% combustion efficiency, allowing the little use of biofuel compared to firewood, and consequently, the utilization of this biofuel would reduce levels of deforestation. In contrast to similar projects, the sustainability of an energetic model of briquette production will be achieved when economic, environmental and social aspects are met, developing clean technologies and an efficient supply chain, from the supply of the husk to the commercialization of briquettes

    • Modelo de madurez Tecno-organizacional para la puesta en marcha exitosa de iniciativas de Data Governance

      Ampuero Mendoza, Libusi; Alfaro Carranza, Rosa (International Institute of Informatics and Systemics, IIIS, 2017-03)
      Data management has undergone several changes over the last few years, leaving behind the days when it was necessary to convince people about the value of data in their organizations. Over the years, the volume and expense of data management have been increasing at a high rate. Today, organizations need to have strategic management that allows them to transform data collected from various sources with clear and accurate information. So, that they can dispose of it when they need it. The motivation of the present study is to generate a model of measurement of the level of organizational maturity that allows them to ensure the success of a Data Governance initiative. In this way ensure that all the information of the organization meets the demands of the business. It is for this reason that an organizational maturity model is proposed for the success of Data Governance initiatives based on 11 categories taking into consideration the analysis of the most widespread and adopted frameworks by industry (Kalido, Dataflux, etc.) in order to know the level of maturity and the steps to be taken at each of these levels. In this way ensure the success of a Data Governance initiative.

      Asres Kidanu, Salomon; Cardinales, Yudith; Chbeir, Richard; De Ponte, Víctor; Figueroa, Alejandro; Rodríguez, Figueroa; Raymundo Ibañez, Carlos Arturo (Computational Science and Engineering, 2016-08)
      Currently multimedia contents dominate the information exchanged in Internet, particularly through social networks. Each actor on the Internet becomes producer and consumer of contents. Nevertheless, social network and other traditional collaborative environments present limitations regarding content selection, categorization, aggregation, linking and interoperability, and usage control and privacy. In [1], we proposed the architecture (based on a peer-to-peer infrastructure and Semantic Web) of a MultiMedia Digital EcoSystem (MMDES), as a new environment for collaboration and sharing of multimedia resources, multimedia processings, as well as for computing and storage capabilities. In this paper, we describe MMDES framework and functionalities related to managing the collective knowledge and equilibrium in MMDES. We also describe the implementation of MMDES using a mobile platform in order to provide resources’ sharing for the Archivo Nacional de Arte Rupestre (ANAR) in Venezuela

      Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas (UPC) (IEEE, 2014-07)
      The public research centers were created to research activities and knowledge generation. Some studies, around the world, have been developed about this problematic and the opportunities for technology transfer, from these institutes. In the Peruvian case, until now, the national institutes of research have structured and applied its programs and models of technology transfer in an incipient form. Some of difficulties perceived are: the lack of studies on technology management, ignorance about other local experiences on technology transfer, the lack of comparison with technology transfer models. In this context, this paper aims to identify and analyze the technology transfer experiences since the public research institutes in Peru. The methodology consisted in the literature review over the technology transfer topic, followed by a diagnostic of the technology transfer at the Peruvian public research institutes, its discussion and analysis. Major results from the study showed a disordered sector, with lack of mechanisms for technological transfer, and scarcity of codification the few experiences. However the potential knowledge is substantial.
