摘要： The embodiments herein disclose a herbal oil based non-toxic insecticide composition comprises lemon grass oil, peppermint oil and liquid soap/soap solution. The herbal oil based non-toxic insecticide composition is tested on the insects/bugs. The predetermined amount of lemon grass oil is in a range of 3% v/v-45% v/v. The predetermined amount of peppermint oil is in a range of 0.05% v/v-25% v/v. The predetermined amount of liquid soap/soap solution is in a range of 0.01% v/v-20% v/v. The liquid soap/soap solution does not comprise chemical dyes, perfumes and phosphate composition. The soap solution/liquid soap is plant based and does not comprise animal derived products. The soap solution/liquid soap prevents separation of peppermint oil and lemon grass oil in the herbal oil based non-toxic insecticide composition. The bed bugs, roaches and hornets die after spraying the herbal oil based non-toxic insecticide composition.

摘要： A system and method is described for using a component business model to partition a business into non-overlapping components, and then allocating different components to appropriate organizing strategies, based on attribute values assigned to each component. In the best mode of implementation there are two attributes: whether or not the component differentiates the business within the market place; and whether the component is industry standard or is tailored by the organization. These attributes and their values map the components of the business to a matrix. Based on the combination of attribute values in each cell of the matrix, available organizing strategies are also mapped to the matrix, thereby identifying for each component an appropriate organizing strategy.

摘要： An automated employee selection system can use a variety of techniques to provide information for assisting in selection of employees. For example, pre-hire and post-hire information can be collected electronically and used to build an artificial-intelligence based model. The model can then be used to predict a desired job performance criterion (e.g., tenure, number of accidents, sales level, or the like) for new applicants. A wide variety of features can be supported, such as electronic reporting. Pre-hire information identified as ineffective can be removed from a collected pre-hire information. For example, ineffective questions can be identified and removed from a job application. New items can be added and their effectiveness tested. As a result, a system can exhibit adaptive learning and maintain or increase effectiveness even under changing conditions.

摘要： A method and apparatus for ontology-based classification of media content are provided. With the method and apparatus, initial confidence values of classifiers in a hierarchical classification structure are modified based on relationships between classifiers. A confidence value for a classifier is boosted by a boosting factor based on a correspondence between the confidence value and confidence values of ancestor classifiers in the hierarchical classification structure. A confidence value for a classifier is modified by a confusion factor based on a correspondence between the confidence value of the classifier and the confidence values of mutually exclusive classifiers in the hierarchical classification structure. In this way, a more accurate representation of the actual confidence that media content falls within the classification associated with the classifier is obtained. From this improved classification mechanism, indices for media content may be generated for use in accessing the media content at a later time.

摘要： A manual annotation system of multi-modal characteristics in multimedia files. There is provided an arrangement for selection an observation modality of video with audio, video without audio, audio with video, or audio without video, to be used to annotate multimedia content. While annotating video or audio features is isolation results in less confidence in the identification of features, observing both audio and video simultaneously and annotating that observation results in a higher confidence level.
