Modeling Contemporaneous Basket Sequences With Twin Networks For Next-Item Recommendation, Duc Trong Le, Hady W. Lauw, Yuan Fang Jul 2018

Modeling Contemporaneous Basket Sequences With Twin Networks For Next-Item Recommendation, Duc Trong Le, Hady W. Lauw, Yuan Fang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Our interactions with an application frequently leave a heterogeneous and contemporaneous trail of actions and adoptions (e.g., clicks, bookmarks, purchases). Given a sequence of a particular type (e.g., purchases)-- referred to as the target sequence, we seek to predict the next item expected to appear beyond this sequence. This task is known as next-item recommendation. We hypothesize two means for improvement. First, within each time step, a user may interact with multiple items (a basket), with potential latent associations among them. Second, predicting the next item in the target sequence may be helped by also learning from another supporting sequence …

This abstract reviews the literature on computational models of spatial semantics and the potential of deep learning models as an useful approach to this challenge.


An Investigation Into The Effects Of Multiple Kernel Combinations On Solutions Spaces In Support Vector Machines, Paul Kelly, Luca Longo May 2018

An Investigation Into The Effects Of Multiple Kernel Combinations On Solutions Spaces In Support Vector Machines, Paul Kelly, Luca Longo

Conference papers

The use of Multiple Kernel Learning (MKL) for Support Vector Machines (SVM) in Machine Learning tasks is a growing field of study. MKL kernels expand on traditional base kernels that are used to improve performance on non-linearly separable datasets. Multiple kernels use combinations of those base kernels to develop novel kernel shapes that allow for more diversity in the generated solution spaces. Customising these kernels to the dataset is still mostly a process of trial and error. Guidelines around what combinations to implement are lacking and usually they requires domain specific knowledge and understanding of the data. Through a brute …

Artificial Neural Network (Ann) In A Small Dataset To Determine Neutrality In The Pronunciation Of English As A Foreign Language In Filipino Call Center Agents, Proceso L. Fernandez Jr, Rey Benjamin M. Baquirin Jan 2018

Artificial Neural Network (Ann) In A Small Dataset To Determine Neutrality In The Pronunciation Of English As A Foreign Language In Filipino Call Center Agents, Proceso L. Fernandez Jr, Rey Benjamin M. Baquirin

Department of Information Systems & Computer Science Faculty Publications

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) have continued to be efficient models in solving classification problems. In this paper, we explore the use of an ANN with a small dataset to accurately classify whether Filipino call center agents’ pronunciations are neutral or not based on their employer’s standards. Isolated utterances of the ten most commonly used words in the call center were recorded from eleven agents creating a dataset of 110 utterances. Two learning specialists were consulted to establish ground truths and Cohen’s Kappa was computed as 0.82, validating the reliability of the dataset. The first thirteen Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) were …


Development Of An Electronic Nose For Olfactory System Modelling Using Artificial Neural Network, Proceso L. Fernandez Jr, Mary Anne Sy Roa Jan 2018

Development Of An Electronic Nose For Olfactory System Modelling Using Artificial Neural Network, Proceso L. Fernandez Jr, Mary Anne Sy Roa

Department of Information Systems & Computer Science Faculty Publications

Electronic nose (e-nose) devices have received considerable attention in the field of sensor technology because of their many potential uses such as in identification of toxic wastes, monitoring air quality, examining odors in infected wounds and in inspection of food. Notwithstanding the vast amount of literature on the usage of e-noses for specific purposes, the technology originally and ultimately aims to mimic the capability of mammals to discriminate odors from all sorts of objects. This study demonstrates the theoretical and practical feasibility of designing an e-nose towards general odor classification. A multi-sensor array hardware unit was carefully constructed for data …
