Evaluating Machine Learning Classifiers For Defensive Cyber Operations, Michael D. Rich, Robert F. Mills, Thomas E. Dube, Steven K. Rogers Dec 2016

Evaluating Machine Learning Classifiers For Defensive Cyber Operations, Michael D. Rich, Robert F. Mills, Thomas E. Dube, Steven K. Rogers

Military Cyber Affairs

Today’s defensive cyber sensors are dominated by signature-based analytical methods that require continuous maintenance and lack the ability to detect unknown threats. Anomaly detection offers the ability to detect unknown threats, but despite over 15 years of active research, the operationalization of anomaly detection and machine learning for Defensive Cyber Operations (DCO) is lagging. This article provides an introduction to machine learning concepts with a focus on the unique challenges to using machine learning for DCO. Traditional machine learning evaluation methods are challenged in favor of a value-focused evaluation method that incorporates evaluator-specific weights for classifier and sensitivity threshold selection …


Feature Selection For Movie Recommendation, Zehra Çataltepe, Mahi̇ye Uluyağmur, Esengül Tayfur Jan 2016

Feature Selection For Movie Recommendation, Zehra Çataltepe, Mahi̇ye Uluyağmur, Esengül Tayfur

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

TV users have an abundance of different movies they could choose from, and with the quantity and quality of data available both on user behavior and content, better recommenders are possible. In this paper, we evaluate and combine different content-based and collaborative recommendation methods for a Turkish movie recommendation system. Our recommendation methods can make use of user behavior, different types of content features, and other users' behavior to predict movie ratings. We gather different types of data on movies, such as the description, actors, directors, year, and genre. We use natural language processing methods to convert the Turkish movie …


A Mapreduce-Based Distributed Svm Algorithm For Binary Classification, Ferhat Özgür Çatak, Mehmet Erdal Balaban Jan 2016

A Mapreduce-Based Distributed Svm Algorithm For Binary Classification, Ferhat Özgür Çatak, Mehmet Erdal Balaban

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Although the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm has a high generalization property for classifying unseen examples after the training phase~and a small loss value, the algorithm is not suitable for real-life classification and regression problems. SVMs cannot solve hundreds of thousands of examples in a training dataset. In previous studies on distributed machine-learning algorithms, the SVM was trained in a costly and preconfigured computer environment. In this research, we present a MapReduce-based distributed parallel SVM training algorithm for binary classification problems. This work shows how to distribute optimization problems over cloud computing systems with the MapReduce technique. In the second …
