In recent privacy has emerged as one of the major concerns of deep learning, since it requires huge amount of personal data. Medical Image Analysis is one of the prominent areas where sensitive data are shared to a third party service provider. In this paper, a secure deep learning scheme called Metamorphosed Learning (MpLe) is proposed to protect the privacy of images in medical image analysis. An augmented convolutional layer and image morphing are two main components of MpLe scheme. Data providers morph the images without privacy information using image morphing component. The human unrecognizable image is then delivered to the service providers who then apply deep learning algorithms on morphed data using augmented convolution layer without any performance penalty. MpLe provides sturdy security and privacy with optimal computational overhead. The proposed scheme is experimented using VGG-16 network on CIFAR dataset. The performance of MpLe is compared with similar works such as GAZELLE and MiniONN and found that the MpLe attracts very less computational and data transmission overhead. MpLe is also analyzed for various adversarial attack and realized that the success rate is as low as . The efficiency of the proposed scheme is proved through experimental and performance analysis.

The introduction of cloud computing techniques revolutionized the current of information processing and storing. Cloud computing as a competitive edge provides easy and automated access to the vast ocean of resources through standard network mechanisms to businesses and organizations. Due to the vast diversity of service providers and their respective variety of available services with different qualities, top managements often face difficulty for choosing the best available option. So, considering the growing significance of the mentioned issue, this study aims to identify and rank contributing factors in selection of cloud service providers. In that attempt, this research approaches its goal by going through three major phases. Firstly, in phase one, prior studies are reviewed for extracting related elements of selection. Secondly, by employing Fuzzy Delphi method and obtaining results by interviewing experts in this field such as IT managers and technicians, this study tries to finalize the list of contributing factors. Lastly, by utilizing Fuzzy best-worst multi-criteria decision-making method, which is one of the most recent techniques employed to statistically rank variables, this research introduces a list of vital factors for cloud service selection. Based on the findings of this study, there are five major categories involved in the selection process which are: performance, security, data management, personal data protection and environmental-organizational. The finalized result of ranking shows that, performance related factors such as accessibility, response time and capacity are the first priority. The runner-up is security with reliability and governance. Environmental-organizational variables lands in the third place by considering rental and network costs.

Dynamic Balanced Scorecard (DBSC) is an effective business performance management control tool for dealing with business uncertainty, performance monitoring, evaluation and forecasting. DBSC has been proposed and utilized extensively over the years as an effective tool to manage and control the dynamics of business processes (BP) and their performance. However, there is little evidence of its application in knowledge-intensive (KI) organizations and how they can develop and enhance key aspects of their business processes, such as product-service systems innovation, and sustainability, for example. Moreover, the literature does not mention nor does it provide a vision or a DBSC model in cases where business process management (BPM), linked to knowledge creation and organizational transformation initiatives, are factored in the DBSC model. Hence this article explores this vein and aims to demonstrate the advantages of DBSC in this type of scenarios, with stark contrast of failed organizations of the past, particularly in small and medium-size enterprises (SME). Most of the private sector in developing countries like Chile is comprised of SMEs, which thrive and seek to grow sustainably adhering to a global economic trend. The DBSC model being shown here illustrates SMEs strategy, which reveals how intrinsic characteristics of knowledge-intensive organizations can foster sustainability and innovation in BPM.

The production of counterfeit paper currencies has become cheaper because of the advancement in the printing technologies. The circulation of counterfeit currencies down the economy of a country. By leveraging this, there is a mandate to develop an intelligent technique for the detection and classification of counterfeit currencies. The intelligent techniques play a major role in the field of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) too. This paper deals with the detection of counterfeit Indian currencies. The proposed method feature extraction is based on the characteristics of Indian paper currencies. The first order and second order statistical features are extracted initially from the input. The effective feature vectors are given to the SVM classifier unit for classification. The proposed method produced classification accuracy of 95.8%. The experimental results are compared with state-of-the methods and produced reliable results.

Information Management and Analysis (IMA) implies the single data and knowledge base of the business organization whose algorithm and software complex is designed to solve functional problems of operating and dispatch management, marketing, financial arrangements, accounting, strategic planning and organizing e-document flow between the sources and users of information. The “information – communication - control” vector is directed at the achievement of corporate objectives. Assessment of IMA implementation efficiency is complicated by the fact that implementation of managerial (informational) solutions is possible indirectly, with the flows of material, financial and informational resources; the IMA algorithms are valid for a certain range of situations and modes, whose frequency and duration of action are not known in advance. The study is aimed at formalizing compatibility conditions for a set of economic and technical, actual, and probabilistic indicators applied for justifying the IMA implementation efficiency for industrial entrepreneurship. The IMA effectiveness is expected to be calculated as a total of network (communication) effects per each block of IMA algorithms, factored the presentation of information operability; to calculate cost-effectiveness (recoupment of investment) it is supposed to modernize the structural capital evaluation procedure according to A.Puliс. The article contains an introduction, concept of IMA, application of system efficiency theory to IMA, building the structure of IMA efficiency indicators, and conclusion. The main method of study: system approach.

This paper is aimed at evaluating critical success factors in Business Intelligence (BI) implementation in an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) environment. The data analysis method used in this paper is the Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory Model (DEMATEL). The study has been conducted on a cement manufacturing strategic holding company that has implemented ERP since 2010. This research is done through literature review and interviews with the head of the BI development team as the expert for this research, before distributing questionnaires to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) Team and BI stakeholders. The questionnaire has been addressed to 18 respondents consisting of the BI development team and stakeholders, which include the Strategic Planning Division, Business Development Division, Transformation Management Division, and Accounting Division. There are 13 factors evaluated, consisting of 4 factors related to the organization, four factors related to the development process, three factors related to the technology, and two factors associated with the external environment. The most critical factor for organizational criteria is Top management support. The most important factor for process criteria is Effective project management. The most important factor for technology criteria is System reliability, flexibility, and scalability. The most important factor for environment criteria is the selection of a vendor.

Sentiment analysis is the process of analyzing a person’s perception or belief about a particular subject matter. However, finding correct opinion or interest from multi-facet sentiment data is a tedious task. In this paper, a method to improve the sentiment accuracy by utilizing the concept of categorized dictionary for sentiment classification and analysis is proposed.  A categorized dictionary is developed for the sentiment classification and further calculation of sentiment accuracy. The concept of categorized dictionary involves the creation of dictionaries for different categories making the comparisons specific. The categorized dictionary includes words defining the positive and negative sentiments related to the particular category. It is used by the mapper reducer algorithm for the classification of sentiments. The data is collected from social networking site and is pre-processed. Since the amount of data is enormous therefore a reliable open-source framework Hadoop is used for the implementation. Hadoop hosts various software utilities to inspect and process any type of big data. The comparative analysis presented in this paper proves the worthiness of the proposed method.

Nowadays, the tourism industry accounts for approximately 10% of the global GDP, while it only contributes 3% of the economy in Iran. Since the pressure of US sanctions increases day after day on the Iranian economy, the necessity of paying attention to this industry as a source of foreign currency is felt more than ever. The purpose of this research is to analyze the reviews of users of social commerce websites by using a combination of text mining and data mining techniques. For this purpose, the database of TripAdvisor website (TripAdvisor.com) was evaluated, and all profile information of users who commented on hotels in Iran was collected. These comments on all the content of the website, such as hotels, restaurants, and attractions, were then extracted and analyzed. The optimal number of clusters was considered four clusters by calculating the Davies-Bouldin index, namingly water therapy tourists, boutique hotels style and Iran urban tourists, travelholics and food tourists, business and health tourists. Every single cluster possesses unique attributes and features. Afterward, the association rules were further identified for each cluster according to the characteristics of each cluster and the information in the users' profiles. Finally, a solution is proposed to increase the participation of the users on the website, and targeted promotional plans are expressed in accordance with the well-known features of each cluster.
