Extracting Interest Tags From Twitter User Biographies, Ying Ding, Jing Jiang
Extracting Interest Tags From Twitter User Biographies, Ying Ding, Jing Jiang
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Twitter, one of the most popular social media platforms, has been studied from different angles. One of the important sources of information in Twitter is users’ biographies, which are short self-introductions written by users in free form. Biographies often describe users’ background and interests. However, to the best of our knowledge, there has not been much work trying to extract information from Twitter biographies. In this work, we study how to extract information revealing users’ personal interests from Twitter biographies. A sequential labeling model is trained with automatically constructed labeled data. The popular patterns expressing user interests are extracted and …

I’Ve Heard You Have Problems: Cellular Signal Monitoring Through Ue Participatory Sensing, Huiguang Liang, Hyong Kim, Hwee-Pink Tan, Wai-Leong Yeow
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The operating environment of cellular networks can be in a constant state of change. One Singaporean operator expressed difficulty with the coverage assertion (CA) problem of whether regulated minimum coverage is met, especially in urban areas. Currently, the operator manually appraises coverage through laborious and expensive walk/drive-tests. In this paper, we propose Tattle, a distributed, low-cost and comprehensive cellular network measurement collection and processing framework. We exemplify Tattle by leveraging on participating UEs to report on network coverage in real-time. Tattle exploits wireless local-area interfaces to exchange RSCP measurements amongst devices to preserve the co-locality of readings and conserve power. …

Unisense: A Unified And Sustainable Sensing And Transport Architecture For Large Scale And Heterogeneous Sensor Networks, Yunye Jin, Hwee-Pink Tan
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this paper, we propose UNISENSE, a unified and sustainable sensing and transport architecture for large scale and heterogeneous sensor networks. The proposed architecture incorporates seven principal components, namely, application profiling, node architecture, intelligent network design, network management, deep sensing, generalized participatory sensing, and security. We describe the design and implementation for each component. We also present the deployment and performance of the UNISENSE architecture in four practical applications.

An Empirical Study On The Adequacy Of Testing In Open Source Projects, Pavneet Singh Kochhar, Ferdian Thung, David Lo, Julia Lawall
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
During software maintenance, testing is crucial to ensure the quality of code as it evolves. With the increasing size and complexity of software, adequate software testing has become increasingly important. Code coverage is an important metric to gauge the effectiveness of test cases and the adequacy of testing. However, what is the coverage level exhibited by large-scale open-source projects? What is the correlation between software metrics and the code coverage of the software?In this study, we investigate the state-of-the-practice of testing by measuring code coverage in open-source software projects. We examine over300 large open-source projects written in Java, coming from …
Identifying The High-Value Social Audience From Twitter Through Text-Mining Methods, Siaw Ling Lo, David Cornforth, Raymond Chiong
Identifying The High-Value Social Audience From Twitter Through Text-Mining Methods, Siaw Ling Lo, David Cornforth, Raymond Chiong
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Doing business on social media has become a common practice for many companies these days. While the contents shared on Twitter and Facebook offer plenty of opportunities to uncover business insights, it remains a challenge to sift through the huge amount of social media data and identify the potential social audience who is highly likely to be interested in a particular company. In this paper, we analyze the Twitter content of an account owner and its list of followers through various text mining methods, which include fuzzy keyword matching, statistical topic modeling and machine learning approaches. We use tweets of …
Automated Runtime Recovery For Qos-Based Service Composition, Tian Huat Tan, Manman Chen, Étienne André, Jun Sun, Yang Liu, Jin Song Dong
Automated Runtime Recovery For Qos-Based Service Composition, Tian Huat Tan, Manman Chen, Étienne André, Jun Sun, Yang Liu, Jin Song Dong
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Service composition uses existing service-based applications as components to achieve a business goal. The composite service operates in a highly dynamic environment; hence, it can fail at any time due to the failure of component services. Service composition languages such as BPEL provide a compensation mechanism to rollback the error. But such a compensation mechanism has several issues. For instance, it cannot guarantee the functional properties of the composite service after compensation. In this work, we propose an automated approach based on a genetic algorithm to calculate the recovery plan that could guarantee the satisfaction of functional properties of the …
Hybrid Euclidean-And-Riemannian Metric Learning For Image Set Classification, Zhiwu Huang, R. Wang, S. Shan, X. Chen
Hybrid Euclidean-And-Riemannian Metric Learning For Image Set Classification, Zhiwu Huang, R. Wang, S. Shan, X. Chen
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We propose a novel hybrid metric learning approach to combine multiple heterogenous statistics for robust image set classification. Specifically, we represent each set with multiple statistics – mean, covariance matrix and Gaussian distribution, which generally complement each other for set modeling. However, it is not trivial to fuse them since the mean vector with dd-dimension often lies in Euclidean space RdRd, whereas the covariance matrix typically resides on Riemannian manifold Sym+dSymd+. Besides, according to information geometry, the space of Gaussian distribution can be embedded into another Riemannian manifold Sym+d+1Symd+1+. To fuse these statistics from heterogeneous spaces, we propose a Hybrid …
Developer Involvement Considered Harmful? An Empirical Examination Of Android Bug Resolution Times, Subhajit Datta, Proshanta Sarkar, Subhashis Majumder
Developer Involvement Considered Harmful? An Empirical Examination Of Android Bug Resolution Times, Subhajit Datta, Proshanta Sarkar, Subhashis Majumder
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In large scale software development ecosystems, there is a common perception that higher developer involvement leads to faster resolution of bugs. This is based on conjectures around more ``eyeballs" making bugs "shallow" -- whose validity and applicability are not without dispute. In this paper, we posit that the level of developer attention as well as its extent of diversity influence how quickly bugs get resolved. We report results from a study of 1,000+ Android bugs. We find statistically significant evidence that attention and diversity have contrasting relationships with the resolution time of bugs, even after controlling for factors such as …
Linguistic Analysis Of Toxic Behavior In An Online Video Game, Haewoon Kwak, Telefonica
Linguistic Analysis Of Toxic Behavior In An Online Video Game, Haewoon Kwak, Telefonica
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this paper we explore the linguistic components of toxic behavior by using crowdsourced data from over 590 thousand cases of accused toxic players in a popular match-based competition game, League of Legends. We perform a series of linguistic analyses to gain a deeper understanding of the role communication plays in the expression of toxic behavior. We characterize linguistic behavior of toxic players and compare it with that of typical players in an online competition game. We also find empirical support describing how a player transitions from typical to toxic behavior. Our findings can be helpful to automatically detect and …
A First Look At Global News Coverage Of Disasters By Using The Gdelt Dataset, Haewoon Kwak, Jisun. An
A First Look At Global News Coverage Of Disasters By Using The Gdelt Dataset, Haewoon Kwak, Jisun. An
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this work, we reveal the structure of global news coverage of disasters and its determinants by using a large-scale news coverage dataset collected by the GDELT (Global Data on Events, Location, and Tone) project that monitors news media in over 100 languages from the whole world. Significant variables in our hierarchical (mixed-effect) regression model, such as population, political stability, damage, and more, are well aligned with a series of previous research. However, we find strong regionalism in news geography, highlighting the necessity of comprehensive datasets for the study of global news coverage.
Exploiting Geographical Neighborhood Characteristics For Location Recommendation, Yong Liu, Wei Wei, Aixin Sun, Chunyan Miao
Exploiting Geographical Neighborhood Characteristics For Location Recommendation, Yong Liu, Wei Wei, Aixin Sun, Chunyan Miao
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Geographical characteristics derived from the historical check-in data have been reported effective in improving location recommendation accuracy. However, previous studies mainly exploit geographical characteristics from a user’s perspective, via modeling the geographical distribution of each individual user’s check-ins. In this paper, we are interested in exploiting geographical characteristics from a location perspective, by modeling the geographical neighborhood of a location. The neighborhood is modeled at two levels: the instance-level neighborhood defined by a few nearest neighbors of the location, and the region-level neighborhood for the geographical region where the location exists. We propose a novel recommendation approach, namely Instance-Region Neighborhood …
Managing Seller Heterogeneity In A Competitive Marketplace, R. Wu, Mei Lin
Managing Seller Heterogeneity In A Competitive Marketplace, R. Wu, Mei Lin
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The growth of online marketplaces is accompanied by significant heterogeneity of the third-party sellers. The marketplace owner often applies policies that favor the sellers who offer higher values to buyers, which puts the lower-value sellers at an even greater disadvantage. This leads to the phenomenon of Matthew Effect. Our study focuses on a marketplace owner’s policy in managing seller heterogeneity and analyzes Matthew Effect in a competitive market environment. By extending the circular city model, we analytically examine the price competition among a large number of sellers that differ both in variety and in their value offerings. We present the …
Predicting Effectiveness Of Ir-Based Bug Localization Techniques, Tien-Duy B. Le, Ferdian Thung, David Lo
Predicting Effectiveness Of Ir-Based Bug Localization Techniques, Tien-Duy B. Le, Ferdian Thung, David Lo
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Recently, many information retrieval (IR) based bug localization approaches have been proposed in the literature. These approaches use information retrieval techniques to process a textual bug report and a collection of source code files to find buggy files. They output a ranked list of files sorted by their likelihood to contain the bug. Recent approaches can achieve reasonable accuracy, however, even a state-of-the-art bug localization tool outputs many ranked lists where buggy files appear very low in the lists. This potentially causes developers to distrust bug localization tools. Parnin and Orso recently conduct a user study and highlight that developers …

Traccs: Trajectory-Aware Coordinated Urban Crowd-Sourcing, Cen Chen, Shih-Fen Cheng, Aldy Gunawan, Archan Misra, Koustuv Dasgupta, Deepthi Chander
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We investigate the problem of large-scale mobile crowd-tasking, where a large pool of citizen crowd-workers are used to perform a variety of location-specific urban logistics tasks. Current approaches to such mobile crowd-tasking are very decentralized: a crowd-tasking platform usually provides each worker a set of available tasks close to the worker's current location; each worker then independently chooses which tasks she wants to accept and perform. In contrast, we propose TRACCS, a more coordinated task assignment approach, where the crowd-tasking platform assigns a sequence of tasks to each worker, taking into account their expected location trajectory over a wider time …

Buglocalizer: Integrated Tool Support For Bug Localization, Ferdian Thung, Tien-Duy B. Le, Pavneet Singh Kochhar, David Lo
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
To manage bugs that appear in a software, developers often make use of a bug tracking system such as Bugzilla. Users can report bugs that they encounter in such a system. Whenever a user reports a new bug report, developers need to read the summary and description of the bug report and manually locate the buggy files based on this information. This manual process is often time consuming and tedious. Thus, a number of past studies have proposed bug localization techniques to automatically recover potentially buggy files from bug reports. Unfortunately, none of these techniques are integrated to bug tracking …

K-Sketch: Digital Storytelling With Animation Sketches, Richard Christopher Davis, Nur Camellia Binte Zakaria
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
K-Sketch gives novice animators an easy way to tell stories with animation sketches. It relies on users’ intuitive sense of space and time, and makes animation easy through the use of sketching and demonstration. Our studies have shown that people take naturally to telling stories with K-Sketch, and it is particularly helpful for exploring the timing of events. We also found that K-Sketch is a good collaborative medium for telling stories. In this demonstration we will show how K-Sketch works and explain how these advantages are realized in practice.

Modloc: Localizing Multiple Objects In Dynamic Indoor Environment, Xiaonan Guo, Dian Zhang, Kaishun Wu, Lionel M. Ni
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Radio frequency (RF) based technologies play an important role in indoor localization, since Radio Signal Strength (RSS) can be easily measured by various wireless devices without additional cost. Among these, radio map based technologies (also referred as fingerprinting technologies) are attractive due to high accuracy and easy deployment. However, these technologies have not been extensively applied on real environment for two fatal limitations. First, it is hard to localize multiple objects. When the number of target objects is unknown, constructing a radio map of multiple objects is almost impossible. Second, environment changes will generate different multipath signals and severely disturb …
An Ecological Model For Digital Platforms Maintenance And Evolution, Paolo Rocchi, Paolo Spagnoletti, Subhajit Datta
An Ecological Model For Digital Platforms Maintenance And Evolution, Paolo Rocchi, Paolo Spagnoletti, Subhajit Datta
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The maintenance of software products has been studied extensively in both software engineering and management information systems. Such studies are mainly focused on the activities that take place prior to starting the maintenance phase. Their contribution is either related to the improvement of software quality or to validating contingency models for reducing maintenance efforts. The continuous maintenance philosophy suggests to shift the attention within the maintenance phase for better coping with the evolutionary trajectories of digital platforms. In this paper, we examine the maintenance process of a digital platform from the perspective of the software vendor. Based on our empirical …

Rapid: A Toolkit For Reliability Analysis Of Non-Deterministic Systems, Lin Gui, Jun Sun, Yang Liu, Truong Khanh Nguyen, Jin Song Dong Dong
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Non-determinism in concurrent or distributed software systems (i.e., various possible execution orders among different distributed components) presents new challenges to the existing reliability analysis methods based on Markov chains. In this work, we present a toolkit RaPiD for the reliability analysis of non-deterministic systems. Taking Markov decision process as reliability model, RaPiD can help in the analysis of three fundamental and rewarding aspects regarding software reliability. First, to have reliability assurance on a system, RaPiD can synthesize the overall system reliability given the reliability values of system components. Second, given a requirement on the overall system reliability, RaPiD can distribute …

Band Selection For Hyperspectral Images Using Probabilistic Memetic Algorithm, Liang Feng, Ah-Hwee Tan, Meng-Hiot Lim, Si Wei Jiang
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Band selection plays an important role in identifying the most useful and valuable information contained in the hyperspectral images for further data analysis such as classification, clustering, etc. Memetic algorithm (MA), among other metaheuristic search methods, has been shown to achieve competitive performances in solving the NP-hard band selection problem. In this paper, we propose a formal probabilistic memetic algorithm for band selection, which is able to adaptively control the degree of global exploration against local exploitation as the search progresses. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed probabilistic mechanism, empirical studies conducted on five well-known hyperspectral images against two …

Online Transfer Learning, Peilin Zhao, Steven C. H. Hoi, Jialei Wang, Bin Li
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
This paper investigates a new machine learning framework of Online Transfer Learning (OTL), which aims to attack an online learning task on a target domain by transferring knowledge from some source domain. We do not assume data in the target domain follows the same distribution as that in the source domain, and the motivation of our work is to enhance a supervised online learning task on a target domain by exploiting the existing knowledge that had been learnt from training data in source domains. OTL is in general a challenging problem since data in both source and target domains not …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Learning effective feature representations and similarity measures are crucial to the retrieval performance of a content-based image retrieval (CBIR) system. Despite extensive research efforts for decades, it remains one of the most challenging open problems that considerably hinders the successes of real-world CBIR systems. The key challenge has been attributed to the well-known "semantic gap" issue that exists between low-level image pixels captured by machines and high-level semantic concepts perceived by human. Among various techniques, machine learning has been actively investigated as a possible direction to bridge the semantic gap in the long term. Inspired by recent successes of deep …
Historical Traffic-Tolerant Paths In Road Networks, Pui Hang Li, Man Lung Yiu, Kyriakos Mouratidis
Historical Traffic-Tolerant Paths In Road Networks, Pui Hang Li, Man Lung Yiu, Kyriakos Mouratidis
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Historical traffic information is valuable for transportation analysis and planning, as well as for route search services. In view of these applications, we propose the k traffic-tolerant paths problem (TTP) on road networks, which takes a source-destination pair and historical traffic information as input, and returns k paths that minimize the aggregate (historical) travel time. Unlike the shortest path problem, the TTP problem has a combinatorial search space that renders the optimal solution expensive to compute. We propose an exact algorithm and a heuristic algorithm for this problem. Experiments on real traffic data demonstrate the effectiveness of TTP paths and …
Dynamic Clustering Of Contextual Multi-Armed Bandits, Trong T. Nguyen, Hady W. Lauw
Dynamic Clustering Of Contextual Multi-Armed Bandits, Trong T. Nguyen, Hady W. Lauw
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
With the prevalence of the Web and social media, users increasingly express their preferences online. In learning these preferences, recommender systems need to balance the trade-off between exploitation, by providing users with more of the "same", and exploration, by providing users with something "new" so as to expand the systems' knowledge. Multi-armed bandit (MAB) is a framework to balance this trade-off. Most of the previous work in MAB either models a single bandit for the whole population, or one bandit for each user. We propose an algorithm to divide the population of users into multiple clusters, and to customize the …

Player Acceptance Of Human Computation Games: An Aesthetic Perspective, Xiaohui Wang, Dion Hoe Lian Goh, Ee Peng Lim, Adrian Wei Liang Vu
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Human computation games (HCGs) are applications that use games to harness human intelligence to perform computations that cannot be effectively done by software systems alone. Despite their increasing popularity, insufficient research has been conducted to examine the predictors of player acceptance for HCGs. In particular, prior work underlined the important role of game enjoyment in predicting acceptance of entertainment technology without specifying its driving factors. This study views game enjoyment through a taxonomy of aesthetic experiences and examines the effect of aesthetic experience, usability and information quality on player acceptance of HCGs. Results showed that aesthetic experience and usability were …
On Joint Modeling Of Topical Communities And Personal Interest In Microblogs, Tuan-Anh Hoang, Ee Peng Lim
On Joint Modeling Of Topical Communities And Personal Interest In Microblogs, Tuan-Anh Hoang, Ee Peng Lim
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this paper, we propose the Topical Communities and Personal Interest (TCPI) model for simultaneously modeling topics, topical communities, and users’ topical interests in microblogging data. TCPI considers different topical communities while differentiating users’ personal topical interests from those of topical communities, and learning the dependence of each user on the affiliated communities to generate content. This makes TCPI different from existing models that either do not consider the existence of multiple topical communities, or do not differentiate between personal and community’s topical interests. Our experiments on two Twitter datasets show that TCPI can effectively mine the representative topics for …

Online Passive Aggressive Active Learning And Its Applications, Jing Lu, Peilin Zhao, Steven C. H. Hoi
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We investigate online active learning techniques for classification tasks in data stream mining applications. Unlike traditional learning approaches (either batch or online learning) that often require to request the class label of each incoming instance, online active learning queries only a subset of informative incoming instances to update the classification model, which aims to maximize classification performance using minimal human labeling effort during the entire online stream data mining task. In this paper, we present a new family of algorithms for online active learning called Passive-Aggressive Active (PAA) learning algorithms by adapting the popular Passive-Aggressive algorithms in an online active …
