Analyzing Evolution Of Rare Events Through Social Media Data, Xiaoyu Lu Aug 2019

Analyzing Evolution Of Rare Events Through Social Media Data, Xiaoyu Lu

Dissertations

Recently, some researchers have attempted to find a relationship between the evolution of rare events and temporal-spatial patterns of social media activities. Their studies verify that the relationship exists in both time and spatial domains. However, few of those studies can accurately deduce a time point when social media activities are most highly affected by a rare event because producing an accurate temporal pattern of social media during the evolution of a rare event is very difficult. This work expands the current studies along three directions. Firstly, we focus on the intensity of information volume and propose an innovative clustering …


Towards Efficient Intrusion Detection Using Hybrid Data Mining Techniques, Fadi Salo Jun 2019

Towards Efficient Intrusion Detection Using Hybrid Data Mining Techniques, Fadi Salo

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

The enormous development in the connectivity among different type of networks poses significant concerns in terms of privacy and security. As such, the exponential expansion in the deployment of cloud technology has produced a massive amount of data from a variety of applications, resources and platforms. In turn, the rapid rate and volume of data creation in high-dimension has begun to pose significant challenges for data management and security. Handling redundant and irrelevant features in high-dimensional space has caused a long-term challenge for network anomaly detection. Eliminating such features with spectral information not only speeds up the classification process, but …
