Deep Neural Networks For Sentiment Analysis In Tweets With Emoticons, Mutharasu Narayanaperumal
Deep Neural Networks For Sentiment Analysis In Tweets With Emoticons, Mutharasu Narayanaperumal
CCE Theses and Dissertations
Businesses glean meaningful feedback in regard to products and services from social media posts in order to improve the quality of products and services, as well as to meet customer expectations. Sentiment analysis is increasingly being used to help businesses by assigning positive or negative polarity to such posts. Although methods currently exist to determine the polarity of sentiments, such methods are unreliable when posts contain terms that are not typically part of a standard dictionary used for sentiment analysis, such as slang and informal language. This dissertation has aimed to empirically investigate alternative methods to improve the classification accuracy …
Adaptive Batch Size Selection In Active Learning For Regression, Anthony L. Faulds
Adaptive Batch Size Selection In Active Learning For Regression, Anthony L. Faulds
CCE Theses and Dissertations
Training supervised machine learning models requires labeled examples. A judicious choice of examples is helpful when there is a significant cost associated with assigning labels. This dissertation aims to improve upon a promising extant method - Batch-mode Expected Model Change Maximization (B-EMCM) method - for selecting examples to be labeled for regression problems. Specifically, it aims to develop and evaluate alternate strategies for adaptively selecting batch size in B-EMCM, named adaptive B-EMCM (AB-EMCM).
By determining the cumulative error that occurs from the estimation of the stochastic gradient descent, a stop criteria for each iteration of the batch can be specified …
A Hierarchical Temporal Memory Sequence Classifier For Streaming Data, Jeffrey Barnett
A Hierarchical Temporal Memory Sequence Classifier For Streaming Data, Jeffrey Barnett
CCE Theses and Dissertations
Real-world data streams often contain concept drift and noise. Additionally, it is often the case that due to their very nature, these real-world data streams also include temporal dependencies between data. Classifying data streams with one or more of these characteristics is exceptionally challenging. Classification of data within data streams is currently the primary focus of research efforts in many fields (i.e., intrusion detection, data mining, machine learning). Hierarchical Temporal Memory (HTM) is a type of sequence memory that exhibits some of the predictive and anomaly detection properties of the neocortex. HTM algorithms conduct training through exposure to a stream …
