The increasing popularity of mobile Internet has led to several crucial changes in the way that people use search engines compared with traditional Web search on desktops. On one hand, there is limited output bandwidth with the small screen sizes of most mobile devices. Mobile Internet users prefer direct answers on the search engine result page (SERP). On the other hand, voice-based / text-based conversational interfaces are becoming increasing popular as shown in the wide adoption of intelligent assistant services and devices such as Amazon Echo, Microsoft Cortana and Google Assistant around the world. These important changes have triggered several …

Image classification has been a core topic in the computer vision community. Its recent success with convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithm has led to various real world applications such as large scale management of photos/videos on cloud/social-media, image based search for online retailers, self-driving cars, building robots and healthcare. Image classification can be broadly categorized into binary, multi-class and multi-label classification problems. Binary classification involves assigning one of the two class labels to an instance. In multi-class classification problem, an instance should be categorized into one of more than two classes. Multi-label classification is a generalized version of the multi-class …

"In this digital age, big-data sets are commonly found in the field of healthcare, manufacturing and others where sustainable analysis is necessary to create useful information. Big-data sets are often characterized by high-dimensionality and massive sample size. High dimensionality refers to the presence of unwanted dimensions in the data where challenges such as noise, spurious correlation and incidental endogeneity are observed. Massive sample size, on the other hand, introduces the problem of heterogeneity because complex and unstructured data types must analyzed. To mitigate the impact of these challenges while considering the application of classification, a two step analysis approach is …
