JackHare: a framework for SQL to NoSQL translation using MapReduce

As data exploration has increased rapidly in recent years, the datastore and data processing are getting more and more attention in extracting important information. To find a scalable solution to process the large-scale data is a critical issue in either the relational database system or the emerging NoSQL database. With the inherent scalability and fault tolerance of Hadoop, MapReduce is attractive to process the massive data in parallel. Most of previous researches focus on developing the SQL or SQL-like queries translator with the Hadoop distributed file system. However, it could be difficult to update data frequently in such file system. Therefore, we need a flexible datastore as HBase not only to place the data over a scale-out storage system, but also to manipulate the changeable data in a transparent way. However, the HBase interface is not friendly enough for most users. A GUI composed of SQL client application and database connection to HBase will ease the learning curve. In this paper, we propose the JackHare framework with SQL query compiler, JDBC driver and a systematical method using MapReduce framework for processing the unstructured data in HBase. After importing the JDBC driver to a SQL client GUI, we can exploit the HBase as the underlying datastore to execute the ANSI-SQL queries. Experimental results show that our approaches can perform well with efficiency and scalability.

D-HOCS: an algorithm for discovering the hierarchical overlapping community structure of a social network

Social networks often demonstrate a hierarchical organization, with communities embedded within other communities; moreover, nodes can be shared between different communities, i.e. communities in social networks may be overlapping. In this paper, we define a hierarchical overlapping community structure to present overlapping communities of a social network at different levels of granularity. Discovering the hierarchical overlapping community structure of a social network can provide us a deeper understanding of the complex nature of social networks. We propose an algorithm, called D-HOCS, to derive the hierarchical overlapping community structure of social networks. Firstly, D-HOCS generates a probability transition matrix by applying random walk to a social network, and then trains a Gaussian Mixture Model using the matrix. Further D-HOCS derives overlapping communities by analyzing mean vectors of the Gaussian mixture model. Varying the number of components, D-HOCS repeatedly trains the Gaussian mixture model, detecting the overlapping communities at different levels of granularity. Organizing the overlapping communities into a hierarchy, D-HOCS can finally obtain the hierarchical overlapping community structure of the social network. The experiments conducted on synthetic and real dataset demonstrate the feasibility and applicability of the proposed algorithm. We further employ D-HOCS to explore Enron e-mail corpus, and obtain several interesting insights. For example, we find out a coordinator who coordinated many sections of the Enron Corporation to complete an important task during first half of 2001. We also identify a community that corresponds to a real organization in Enron Corporation.     

Enhancing decisions with life cycle analysis for risk management

Although corporate financial distress is an infrequent occurrence, it has an extremely debilitating effect on the stability of a firm when it does occur. For this reason, an accurate risk assessment mechanism is needed in numerous industry sectors, particularly in financial institutions and banking. Based on corporation life cycle theory and risk management, this study develops a risk pre-warning model, namely the RSVMDT model, to eliminate serious financial punching and to examine the effectiveness of transparency and the full disclosure index (TFDI) during each life cycle stage. The RSVMDT model includes three techniques: random forest (RF), support vector machines (SVMs), and decision trees (DTs). The RF is used to determine the essential attributes of firms and therefore decrease the computational complexity of financial analysis and improve the classification accuracy. The SVM is employed as a classifier to identify corporations in financial distress. Finally, the DT is utilized as a rule generator that allows decision makers to adjust the financial structures of firms at specific life cycle stages. Together, these three techniques can increase the probability of corporate survival in a highly competitive environment. Additionally, the study further evaluates the importance of the TFDI during a turbulent economy. The public sectors can benefit from this evaluation by formulating future policies based on the rules derived from the developed RSVMDT model.     

Propylene epoxidation over Ti/MCM-41 catalysts prepared by chemical vapor deposition

Ti-containing mesoporous catalysts were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of TiCl₄ on silica MCM-41 in the 700–900 °C temperature range. These samples were characterized (with XRD, ICP, nitrogen adsorption, FT-IR, ESCA, and TEM) and evaluated for the epoxidation of propylene with two alkyl hydroperoxides. The increase of CVD temperature resulted in the decrease of titanium content, catalyst hydroxyl population, crystallinity, and surface area. Catalyst selectivity to the desired product – propylene oxide – was highly sensitive to the deposition temperature. The best Ti/MCM-41 catalyst was prepared at the temperature of 800 °C, which had the maximum propylene oxide yield of 94.3%.

Al2O3─SiC Composites from Aluminosilicate Precursors

Al₂O₃ and SiC composite materials have been produced from mixtures of aluminosilicates (both natural minerals and synthetic) and carbon as precursor materials. These composites are produced by heating a mixture of kaolinite (or synthetic aluminosilicates) and carbon in stoichiometric proportion above 1550°C, so that only Al₂O₃ and SiC remain as the major phases. A similar process has also been used for synthesizing other composite powders having mixtures of Al₂O₃, SiC, TiC, and ZrO₂ in different proportions (all compounds together or selective mixtures of some of them), as desired. The microstructure of hot-pressed dense compacts, produced from these powders, revealed that the SiC phase is distributed very homogeneously, even occasionally within Al₂O₃ grains on a nanosize scale. The homogeneous distribution of SiC particles within the system produced high fracture toughness of the hot-pressed material (K_IC∼ 7.0 MPa · m^1/2) and having Vicker's hardness values greater than 2000 kgf/mm².     

Poly(Vinyl Pyrrolidone), a Dispersant for Non-Aqueous Processing of Silicon Carbide

In this paper, poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) was selected as a dispersant for preparation of high concentrated silicon carbide (SiC) slurries in an ethanol (EtOH)/methyl ethylene ketone (MEK) solvent system. The interactions between (1) solvent and powders, (2) the solvent and dispersant, and (3) dispersant and powder were characterized in terms of adsorption and viscosity measurement. It was evidenced that the dispersion of SiC slurries was highly dependent on the solvent composition. Well-stabilized SiC slurries could be obtained using PVP as a dispersant in EtOH/MEK media with the content of EtOH in the 40–50 wt% range. The optimal dosage of PVP as a dispersant was at a PVP/SiC mass ratio of 17 mg/g. Results showed that PVP was an effective dispersant for SiC in EtOH/MEK media.
