  • Advancing real-time flood prediction in large estuaries: iFLOOD a fully coupled surge-wave automated web-based guidance system
    Environmental Modelling & Software, 2020
    Co-Authors: Arslaan Khalid, Celso M. Ferreira
    Abstract:

    Abstract Real-time flood forecasting computational frameworks that can dynamically integrate oceanic, coastal and estuarine processes are becoming essential to provide accurate and timely information for emergency response and planning in largely populated estuaries during extreme events. This study presents a newly developed real-time total water flood guidance system that is fully automated based on the coupled surge-wave (ADCIRC + SWAN) model and provides water level forecasts in the Chesapeake Bay for a lead-time of 84 h twice a day displayed on a web-based Public Interface. This system improved the current total water level predictions in the Bay (RMSE

  • estimating the clustering coefficient of a social network by a non backtracking random walk
    International Conference on Big Data and Smart Computing, 2018
    Co-Authors: Kenta Iwasaki, Kazuyuki Shudo
    Abstract:

    The clustering coefficient of social networks can be estimated via an unbiased sampling technique such as random walk sampling. To this end, we propose an algorithm that assumes no prior knowledge of the network and that accesses the network only through a Publicly available Interface. The clustering coefficient of a network is estimated by counting triangles in a non-backtracking random walk (NBRW). A social network is viewed as an undirected graph and the NBRW is retrieved through a Public Interface, which theoretically guarantees its retrieval. In a simulation study on real social networks, the proposed method achieved higher efficiency and accuracy than the prior state-of-the-art method based on a simple random walk.

  • Women on display : representation or stereotypes? : session 5 : interpretations, representations and Public Interface (Part 2)
    South African Museums Association Bulletin, 2002
    Co-Authors: Estelle Liebenberg-barkhuizen
    Abstract:

    At the Cape Town Triennial in 1988 the South African artist, Penny Siopis exhibited a collage-type work entitled 'Patience on a Monument: A History Painting'. The painting consists of a semi-nude black woman sitting on a pile of junk within a landscape filled with what appears to be debris. Closer inspection reveals that the debris is made up of archivally-derived images depicting familiar South African historical events, individuals, stereotypical representations of 'savages': the Boers, the Red Coats, the landing of Jan van Riebeeck, images of Sarah Baartman. Patience is a black woman, semi-clothed, and she seems unaware of her environment. Yet, she skillfully performs the domestic activity of peeling lemons.
