Concept sorting is a knowledge elicitation technique where domain concepts are written on individual cards which experts then sort into piles based on shared attributes. This reveals the expert's conceptual organization and relationships among concepts in their domain. It can be applied to objects or images as well. Concept sorting provides insight into an expert's classifications and domain structure in a fast, easy to analyze manner without lengthy transcription. However, experts may inconsistently apply distinctions which could confound dimensions during categorization.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER IN CONDENSING HEAT EXCHANGERS...ssuser7dcef0
Power plants release a large amount of water vapor into the
atmosphere through the stack. The flue gas can be a potential
source for obtaining much needed cooling water for a power
plant. If a power plant could recover and reuse a portion of this
moisture, it could reduce its total cooling water intake
requirement. One of the most practical way to recover water
from flue gas is to use a condensing heat exchanger. The power
plant could also recover latent heat due to condensation as well
as sensible heat due to lowering the flue gas exit temperature.
Additionally, harmful acids released from the stack can be
reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation. reduced in a condensing heat exchanger by acid condensation.
Condensation of vapors in flue gas is a complicated
phenomenon since heat and mass transfer of water vapor and
various acids simultaneously occur in the presence of noncondensable
gases such as nitrogen and oxygen. Design of a
condenser depends on the knowledge and understanding of the
heat and mass transfer processes. A computer program for
numerical simulations of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4)
condensation in a flue gas condensing heat exchanger was
developed using MATLAB. Governing equations based on
mass and energy balances for the system were derived to
predict variables such as flue gas exit temperature, cooling
water outlet temperature, mole fraction and condensation rates
of water and sulfuric acid vapors. The equations were solved
using an iterative solution technique with calculations of heat
and mass transfer coefficients and physical properties.
Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

2. Knowledge Elicitation (Introduction)
• Knowledge Elicitation is the process of acquiring knowledge about a
specific domain.
• It is one of the most important and a crucial task of the development of an
expert system since it directly has an impact on the overall quality of the
system.
• Knowledge elicitation is also often viewed as the bottleneck in the
development of expert systems or knowledge based systems as it is difficult
and time consuming activity.
• Among various known Knowledge Elicitation techniques available choice to
be used depends on the nature of the situation within which the
knowledge is elicited, the domain knowledge and availability of experts.
3. Knowledge Elicitation (Introduction) Cont…
• Knowledge Elicitation process gets tricky as the vast amount of information
is often kept inside the heads of domain experts.
• This makes the entire process complicated as the domain experts may not
be willing to disclose the information, due to worries of being sidelined or
becoming less important or getting redundant.
• There are various techniques used in the Knowledge Elicitation process :
• Interview
• Protocol Analysis
• Laddering
• Concept Sorting (Will be discussing)
• Repertory Grid
• Structural Assessment
4. When to use which technique?
• For Knowledge identification
• Unstructured interview, laddering
• For Knowledge specification
• Domain schema: Concept Sorting, repertory grid
• Template selection: self report
• Task & inference knowledge: self report
• For Knowledge Refinement
• Structured interview
5. What is Concept Sorting ?
• Concept sorting is a psychological technique that is useful in tapping
organization knowledge.
• It a way of finding out how an expert compares, orders concepts and relates
among a set of concepts.
• Used to capture conceptual knowledge and tacit knowledge.
• Can also sort objects or pictures instead of cards
• It works best on small group.
• Simple to apply
• Its is also Called Card Sorting.
• Simplest form is Concept Sorting
• Collection of concepts (or other knowledge objects) are written on separate cards
• Cards sorted into piles by an expert in to piles - each card in a pile must have something
in common
• Each time the cards are sorted it will be based on an attribute and each pile will
represent a value
6. Concept Sorting – How To ?
• To apply this technique , the KE follows the following steps:
1- First , KE Decide what classes of concepts he/she want to explore
(in particular their properties – attributes and values).
2- Consults a textbook, training manual, or in-house domain expert to
identify the major top-level concepts represented in the domain.
3- Place write the name of each concept on a separate note card .
4- Next, the KE asks the domain expert to begin sorting these cards
placing them in groups according to those that belong together.
5- As the domain expert sorts the cards the KE uses questioning
techniques to determine why they are placed together.
6- Repeat steps 4, and 5 until the expert can’t sort anymore

• The Number of 15 models of cars may be grouped into two categories named “Foreign"
and “Domestic
• Then re-sorted into three categories; “Sedan" , “Hatchback", and “Sports";
• Then re-sorted into four categories; " Expensive Domestic", " Less Expensive Domestic",
" Expensive Foreign", “Less Expensive Foreign“.
• A hierarchy tree may be created expressing the group categories as levels within the
hierarchy.

12. Application of Concept Sorting
• Concept sorting is basically used in several disciplines like
- Knowledge Engineering
- Psychology
- Marketing etc.
13. Pros and Cons
• Pros
• Fast to apply and easy to analyze
• Often instructive to the expert in a sense that it may lead expert to see
structure that he himself has not consciously articulated before
• Time saving by not having to transcribe and analyze lengthy verbal reports
• Can be used for images and objects as well
14. Pros and Cons Cont…
• Cons
• Experts can often confound dimensions by not consistently applying the same
semantic distinctions throughout an elicitation session
• May face problem in categorization of elements in meaningful way
15. Conclusion
• Card Sorting techniques provide a means of achieving a more focused
or systematic understanding of the classifications and relationships in
the expert's domain.
