Domain Specific Document Retrieval Framework For Real-Time Social Health Data, Swapnil Soni

Kno.e.sis Publications

With the advent of the web search and microblogging, the percentage of Online Health Information Seekers (OHIS) using these online services to share and seek health real-time information has in- creased exponentially. OHIS use web search engines or microblogging search services to seek out latest, relevant as well as reliable health in- formation. When OHIS turn to microblogging search services to search real-time content, trends and breaking news, etc. the search results are not promising. Two major challenges exist in the current microblogging search engines are keyword based techniques and results do not contain real-time information. To address these challenges, …

Using Support Vector Machine Ensembles For Target Audience Classification On Twitter, Siaw Ling Lo, Raymond Chiong, David Cornforth

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The vast amount and diversity of the content shared on social media can pose a challenge for any business wanting to use it to identify potential customers. In this paper, our aim is to investigate the use of both unsupervised and supervised learning methods for target audience classification on Twitter with minimal annotation efforts. Topic domains were automatically discovered from contents shared by followers of an account owner using Twitter Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). A Support Vector Machine (SVM) ensemble was then trained using contents from different account owners of the various topic domains identified by Twitter LDA. Experimental results …

Temporal Mining For Distributed Systems, Yexi Jiang

FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Many systems and applications are continuously producing events. These events are used to record the status of the system and trace the behaviors of the systems. By examining these events, system administrators can check the potential problems of these systems. If the temporal dynamics of the systems are further investigated, the underlying patterns can be discovered. The uncovered knowledge can be leveraged to predict the future system behaviors or to mitigate the potential risks of the systems. Moreover, the system administrators can utilize the temporal patterns to set up event management rules to make the system more intelligent.

Analysis Into Developing Accurate And Efficient Intrusion Detection Approaches, Priya Rabadia, Craig Valli

Australian Digital Forensics Conference

Cyber-security has become more prevalent as more organisations are relying on cyber-enabled infrastructures to conduct their daily actives. Subsequently cybercrime and cyber-attacks are increasing. An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is a cyber-security tool that is used to mitigate cyber-attacks. An IDS is a system deployed to monitor network traffic and trigger an alert when unauthorised activity has been detected. It is important for IDSs to accurately identify cyber-attacks against assets on cyber-enabled infrastructures, while also being efficient at processing current and predicted network traffic flows. The purpose of the paper is to outline the importance of developing an accurate and …
