Deep Air Learning: Interpolation, Prediction, And Feature Analysis Of Fine-Grained Air Quality, Zhongang Qi, Tianchun Wang, Guojie Song, Weisong Hu, Xi Li, Zhongfei Mark Zhang Dec 2018

Deep Air Learning: Interpolation, Prediction, And Feature Analysis Of Fine-Grained Air Quality, Zhongang Qi, Tianchun Wang, Guojie Song, Weisong Hu, Xi Li, Zhongfei Mark Zhang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The interpolation, prediction, and feature analysis of fine-gained air quality are three important topics in the area of urban air computing. The solutions to these topics can provide extremely useful information to support air pollution control, and consequently generate great societal and technical impacts. Most of the existing work solves the three problems separately by different models. In this paper, we propose a general and effective approach to solve the three problems in one model called the Deep Air Learning (DAL). The main idea of DAL lies in embedding feature selection and semi-supervised learning in different layers of the deep …


Prediction Of Relatedness In Stack Overflow: Deep Learning Vs. Svm: A Reproducibility Study, Bowen Xu, Amirreza Shirani, David Lo, Mohammad Amin Alipour Oct 2018

Prediction Of Relatedness In Stack Overflow: Deep Learning Vs. Svm: A Reproducibility Study, Bowen Xu, Amirreza Shirani, David Lo, Mohammad Amin Alipour

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Background Xu et al. used a deep neural network (DNN) technique to classify the degree of relatedness between two knowledge units (question-answer threads) on Stack Overflow. More recently, extending Xu et al.'s work, Fu and Menzies proposed a simpler classification technique based on a fine-tuned support vector machine (SVM) that achieves similar performance but in a much shorter time. Thus, they suggested that researchers need to compare their sophisticated methods against simpler alternatives.Aim The aim of this work is to replicate the previous studies and further investigate the validity of Fu and Menzies' claim by evaluating the DNN- and SVM-based …


Online Deep Learning: Learning Deep Neural Networks On The Fly, Doyen Sahoo, Hong Quang Pham, Jing Lu, Steven C. H. Hoi Jul 2018

Online Deep Learning: Learning Deep Neural Networks On The Fly, Doyen Sahoo, Hong Quang Pham, Jing Lu, Steven C. H. Hoi

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) are typically trained by backpropagation in a batch setting, requiring the entire training data to be made available prior to the learning task. This is not scalable for many real-world scenarios where new data arrives sequentially in a stream. We aim to address an open challenge of “Online Deep Learning” (ODL) for learning DNNs on the fly in an online setting. Unlike traditional online learning that often optimizes some convex objective function with respect to a shallow model (e.g., a linear/kernel-based hypothesis), ODL is more challenging as the optimization objective is non-convex, and regular DNN with …


Urlnet: Learning A Url Representation With Deep Learning For Malicious Url Detection, Hung Le, Hong Quang Pham, Doyen Sahoo, Steven C. H. Hoi Mar 2018

Urlnet: Learning A Url Representation With Deep Learning For Malicious Url Detection, Hung Le, Hong Quang Pham, Doyen Sahoo, Steven C. H. Hoi

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Malicious URLs host unsolicited content and are used to perpetrate cybercrimes. It is imperative to detect them in a timely manner. Traditionally, this is done through the usage of blacklists, which cannot be exhaustive, and cannot detect newly generated malicious URLs. To address this, recent years have witnessed several efforts to perform Malicious URL Detection using Machine Learning. The most popular and scalable approaches use lexical properties of the URL string by extracting Bag-of-words like features, followed by applying machine learning models such as SVMs. There are also other features designed by experts to improve the prediction performance of the …
