Enconter: Entity Constrained Progressive Sequence Generation Via Insertion-Based Transformer, Lee Hsun Hsieh, Yang Yin Lee, Ee-Peng Lim
Enconter: Entity Constrained Progressive Sequence Generation Via Insertion-Based Transformer, Lee Hsun Hsieh, Yang Yin Lee, Ee-Peng Lim
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Pretrained using large amount of data, autoregressive language models are able to generate high quality sequences. However, these models do not perform well under hard lexical constraints as they lack fine control of content generation process. Progressive insertion-based transformers can overcome the above limitation and efficiently generate a sequence in parallel given some input tokens as constraint. These transformers however may fail to support hard lexical constraints as their generation process is more likely to terminate prematurely. The paper analyses such early termination problems and proposes the ENtity-CONstrained insertion TransformER (ENCONTER), a new insertion transformer that addresses the above pitfall …

Sentiment-Oriented Metric Learning For Text-To-Image Retrieval, Quoc Tuan Truong, Hady W. Lauw
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this era of multimedia Web, text-to-image retrieval is a critical function of search engines and visually-oriented online platforms. Traditionally, the task primarily deals with matching a text query with the most relevant images available in the corpus. To an increasing extent, the Web also features visual expressions of preferences, imbuing images with sentiments that express those preferences. Cases in point include photos in online reviews as well as social media. In this work, we study the effects of sentiment information on text-to-image retrieval. Particularly, we present two approaches for incorporating sentiment orientation into metric learning for cross-modal retrieval. Each …

Time Period-Based Top-K Semantic Trajectory Pattern Query, Munkh-Erdene Yadamjav, Farhana Murtaza Choudhury, Zhifeng Bao, Baihua Zheng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The sequences of user check-ins form semantic trajectories that represent the movement of users through time, along with the types of POIs visited. Extracting patterns in semantic trajectories can be widely used in applications such as route planning and trip recommendation. Existing studies focus on the entire time duration of the data, which may miss some temporally significant patterns. In addition, they require thresholds to define the interestingness of the patterns. Motivated by the above, we study a new problem of finding top-k semantic trajectory patterns w.r.t. a given time period and categories by considering the spatial closeness of POIs. …
Dycuckoo: Dynamic Hash Tables On Gpus, Yuchen Li, Qiwei Zhu, Zheng Lyu, Zhongdong Huang, Jianling Sun
Dycuckoo: Dynamic Hash Tables On Gpus, Yuchen Li, Qiwei Zhu, Zheng Lyu, Zhongdong Huang, Jianling Sun
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The hash table is a fundamental structure that has been implemented on graphics processing units (GPUs) to accelerate a wide range of analytics workloads. Most existing works have focused on static scenarios and occupy large GPU memory to maximize the insertion efficiency. In many cases, data stored in hash tables get updated dynamically, and existing approaches use unnecessarily large memory resources. One naïve solution is to rebuild a hash table (known as rehashing) whenever it is either filled or mostly empty. However, this approach renders significant overheads for rehashing. In this paper, we propose a novel dynamic cuckoo hash table …

A Fully Dynamic Algorithm For K-Regret Minimizing Sets, Yanhao Wang, Yuchen Li, Raymond Chi-Wing Wong, Kian-Lee Tan
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Selecting a small set of representatives from a large database is important in many applications such as multi-criteria decision making, web search, and recommendation. The k-regret minimizing set (k-RMS) problem was recently proposed for representative tuple discovery. Specifically, for a large database P of tuples with multiple numerical attributes, the k-RMS problem returns a size-r subset Q of P such that, for any possible ranking function, the score of the top-ranked tuple in Q is not much worse than the score of the kth-ranked tuple in P. Although the k-RMS problem has been extensively studied in the literature, existing methods …

Cross-Topic Rumor Detection Using Topic-Mixtures, Weijieying Ren, Jing Jiang, Ling Min Serena Khoo, Hai Leong Chieu
Cross-Topic Rumor Detection Using Topic-Mixtures, Weijieying Ren, Jing Jiang, Ling Min Serena Khoo, Hai Leong Chieu
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
There has been much interest in rumor detection using deep learning models in recent years. A well-known limitation of deep learning models is that they tend to learn superficial patterns, which restricts their generalization ability. We find that this is also true for cross-topic rumor detection. In this paper, we propose a method inspired by the “mixture of experts” paradigm. We assume that the prediction of the rumor class label given an instance is dependent on the topic distribution of the instance. After deriving a vector representation for each topic, given an instance, we derive a “topic mixture” vector for …
Iotbox: Sandbox Mining To Prevent Interaction Threats In Iot Systems, Hong Jin Kang, Sheng Qin Sim, David Lo
Iotbox: Sandbox Mining To Prevent Interaction Threats In Iot Systems, Hong Jin Kang, Sheng Qin Sim, David Lo
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Internet of Things (IoT) apps provide great convenience but exposes us to new safety threats. Unlike traditional software systems, threats may emerge from the joint behavior of multiple apps. While prior studies use handcrafted safety and security policies to detect these threats, these policies may not anticipate all usages of the devices and apps in a smart home, causing false alarms. In this study, we propose to use the technique of mining sandboxes for securing an IoT environment. After a set of behaviors are analyzed from a bundle of apps and devices, a sandbox is deployed, which enforces that previously …

Escape From An Echo Chamber, Kuan-Chieh Lo, Shih-Chieh Dai, Aiping Xiong, Jing Jiang, Lun-Wei Ku
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
An echo chamber effect refers to the phenomena that online users revealed selective exposure and ideological segregation on political issues. Prior studies indicate the connection between the spread of misinformation and online echo chambers. In this paper, to help users escape from an echo chamber, we propose a novel news-analysis platform that provides a panoramic view of stances towards a particular event from different news media sources. Moreover, to help users better recognize the stances of news sources which published these news articles, we adopt a news stance classification model to categorize their stances into “agree”, “disagree”, “discuss”, or “unrelated” …
Learning Network-Based Multi-Modal Mobile User Interface Embeddings, Gary Ang, Ee-Peng Lim
Learning Network-Based Multi-Modal Mobile User Interface Embeddings, Gary Ang, Ee-Peng Lim
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Rich multi-modal information - text, code, images, categorical and numerical data - co-exist in the user interface (UI) design of mobile applications. UI designs are composed of UI entities supporting different functions which together enable the application. To support effective search and recommendation applications over mobile UIs, we need to be able to learn UI representations that integrate latent semantics. In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised model - Multi-modal Attention-based Attributed Network Embedding (MAAN) model. MAAN is designed to capture both multi-modal and structural network information. Based on the encoder-decoder framework, MAAN aims to learn UI representations that …

Building And Using Digital Libraries For Etds, Edward A. Fox
Building And Using Digital Libraries For Etds, Edward A. Fox
The Journal of Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Despite the high value of electronic theses and dissertations (ETDs), the global collection has seen limited use. To extend such use, a new approach to building digital libraries (DLs) is needed. Fortunately, recent decades have seen that a vast amount of “gray literature” has become available through a diverse set of institutional repositories as well as regional and national libraries and archives. Most of the works in those collections include ETDs and are often freely available in keeping with the open-access movement, but such access is limited by the services of supporting information systems. As explained through a set of …

Analysis Of System Performance Metrics Towards The Detection Of Cryptojacking In Iot Devices, Richard Matthews
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
This single-case mechanism study examined the effects of cryptojacking on Internet of Things (IoT) device performance metrics. Cryptojacking is a cyber-threat that involves stealing the computational resources of devices belonging to others to generate cryptocurrencies. The resources primarily include the processing cycles of devices and the additional electricity needed to power this additional load. The literature surveyed showed that cryptojacking has been gaining in popularity and is now one of the top cyberthreats. Cryptocurrencies offer anyone more freedom and anonymity than dealing with traditional financial institutions which make them especially attractive to cybercriminals. Other reasons for the increasing popularity of …

Stabilization Of Cultural Innovations Depends On Population Density: Testing An Epidemiological Model Of Cultural Evolution Against A Global Dataset Of Rock Art Sites And Climate-Based Estimates Of Ancient Population Densities, Richard Walker, Anders Eriksson, Camille Ruiz, Taylor Howard Newton, Francesco Casalegno
Stabilization Of Cultural Innovations Depends On Population Density: Testing An Epidemiological Model Of Cultural Evolution Against A Global Dataset Of Rock Art Sites And Climate-Based Estimates Of Ancient Population Densities, Richard Walker, Anders Eriksson, Camille Ruiz, Taylor Howard Newton, Francesco Casalegno
Department of Information Systems & Computer Science Faculty Publications
Demographic models of human cultural evolution have high explanatory potential but weak empirical support. Here we use a global dataset of rock art sites and climate and genetics-based estimates of ancient population densities to test a new model based on epidemiological principles. The model focuses on the process whereby a cultural innovation becomes endemic in a population; predicting that this cannot occur unless population density exceeds a critical threshold. Analysis of the data; using a Bayesian statistical framework; shows that the model has stronger empirical support than a proportional model; where detection is directly proportional to population density; or a …

Block The Root Takeover: Validating Devices Using Blockchain Protocol, Sharmila Paul
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
This study addresses a vulnerability in the trust-based STP protocol that allows malicious users to target an Ethernet LAN with an STP Root-Takeover Attack. This subject is relevant because an STP Root-Takeover attack is a gateway to unauthorized control over the entire network stack of a personal or enterprise network. This study aims to address this problem with a potentially trustless research solution called the STP DApp. The STP DApp is the combination of a kernel /net modification called stpverify and a Hyperledger Fabric blockchain framework in a NodeJS runtime environment in userland. The STP DApp works as an Intrusion …
Towards Identity Relationship Management For Internet Of Things, Mohammad Muntasir Nur
Towards Identity Relationship Management For Internet Of Things, Mohammad Muntasir Nur
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
Identity and Access Management (IAM) is in the core of any information systems. Traditional IAM systems manage users, applications, and devices within organizational boundaries, and utilize static intelligence for authentication and access control. Identity federation has helped a lot to deal with boundary limitation, but still limited to static intelligence – users, applications and devices must be under known boundaries. However, today’s IAM requirements are much more complex. Boundaries between enterprise and consumer space, on premises and cloud, personal devices and organization owned devices, and home, work and public places are fading away. These challenges get more complicated for Internet …

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an environment of connected physical devices and objects that communicate amongst themselves over the internet. The IoT is based on the notion of always-connected customers, which allows businesses to collect large volumes of customer data to give them a competitive edge. Most of the data collected by these IoT devices include personal information, preferences, and behaviors. However, constant connectivity and sharing of data create security and privacy concerns. Laws and regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of 2016 ensure that customers are protected by providing privacy and security guidelines to businesses. Data …
Jrevealpeg: A Semi-Blind Jpeg Steganalysis Tool Targeting Current Open-Source Embedding Programs, Charles A. Badami
Jrevealpeg: A Semi-Blind Jpeg Steganalysis Tool Targeting Current Open-Source Embedding Programs, Charles A. Badami
Masters Theses & Doctoral Dissertations
Steganography in computer science refers to the hiding of messages or data within other messages or data; the detection of these hidden messages is called steganalysis. Digital steganography can be used to hide any type of file or data, including text, images, audio, and video inside other text, image, audio, or video data. While steganography can be used to legitimately hide data for non-malicious purposes, it is also frequently used in a malicious manner. This paper proposes JRevealPEG, a software tool written in Python that will aid in the detection of steganography in JPEG images with respect to identifying a …
Can We Classify Cashless Payment Solution Implementations At The Country Level?, Dennis Ng, Robert J. Kauffman, Paul Robert Griffin
Can We Classify Cashless Payment Solution Implementations At The Country Level?, Dennis Ng, Robert J. Kauffman, Paul Robert Griffin
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
This research commentary proposes a 3-D implementation classification framework to assist service providers and business leaders in understanding the kinds of contexts in which more or less successful cashless payment solutions are observed at point-of-sale (PoS) settings. Three constructs characterize the framework: the digitalization of the local implementation environment; the relative novelty of a given payment technology solution in a country at a specific point in time; and the development status of the country’s national infrastructure. The framework is motivated by a need to support cross-country research in this domain. We analyze eight country mini-cases based on an eight-facet (2 …

How Do Monetary Incentives Influence Giving? An Empirical Investigation Of Matching Subsidies On Kiva, Zhiyuan Gao, Zhiling Guo, Qian Tang
How Do Monetary Incentives Influence Giving? An Empirical Investigation Of Matching Subsidies On Kiva, Zhiyuan Gao, Zhiling Guo, Qian Tang
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Matching subsidies, through which third-party institutions provide a dollar-for-dollar match of private contributions made through selected campaigns, have served as effective tools to boost fundraising. We utilize a quasi-experiment on a prosocial crowdfunding platform to examine the effectiveness of matching subsidies in shaping funding outcomes and lender behaviors. Although matching subsidies offer matched loans competitive advantages over unmatched loans, we find that total private contributions made to both matched and unmatched loans increase compared to their prematching counterparts, suggesting a positive spillover effect on unmatched loans. However, matching subsidies lead to decreased private contributions made on the platform after a …
Enhancing Healthcare Professional And Caregiving Staff Informedness With Data Analytics For Chronic Disease Management, Na Liu, Robert John Kauffman
Enhancing Healthcare Professional And Caregiving Staff Informedness With Data Analytics For Chronic Disease Management, Na Liu, Robert John Kauffman
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
An important area in healthcare to which data analytics can be applied is chronic disease management. The chronic care model is mostly patient-centric, so patients have been considered as the end users of data analytics. The information needs of healthcare providers have been overlooked. Drawing upon the theory of informedness and the transtheoretical model of health behavior change, we use a multicase study approach to investigate the information needs of different caregiving stakeholders in the spectrum of chronic diseases, and how data analytics can be designed to meet the varying needs of professionals and staff to support their informedness.
Is The Ground Truth Really Accurate? Dataset Purification For Automated Program Repair, Deheng Yang, Yan Lei, Xiaoguang Mao, David Lo, Huan Xie, Meng Yan
Is The Ground Truth Really Accurate? Dataset Purification For Automated Program Repair, Deheng Yang, Yan Lei, Xiaoguang Mao, David Lo, Huan Xie, Meng Yan
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Datasets of real-world bugs shipped with human-written patches are intensively used in the evaluation of existing automated program repair (APR) techniques, wherein the human-written patches always serve as the ground truth, for manual or automated assessment approaches, to evaluate the correctness of test-suite adequate patches. An inaccurate human-written patch tangled with other code changes will pose threats to the reliability of the assessment results. Therefore, the construction of such datasets always requires much manual effort on isolating real bug fixes from bug fixing commits. However, the manual work is time-consuming and prone to mistakes, and little has been known on …

Learning To Assess The Quality Of Stroke Rehabilitation Exercises, Min Hun Lee, Daniel P. Siewiorek, Asim Smailagic, Alexandre Bernardino, Sergi Bermúdez I Badia
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Due to the limited number of therapists, task-oriented exercises are often prescribed for post-stroke survivors as in-home rehabilitation. During in-home rehabilitation, a patient may become unmotivated or confused to comply prescriptions without the feedback of a therapist. To address this challenge, this paper proposes an automated method that can achieve not only qualitative, but also quantitative assessment of stroke rehabilitation exercises. Specifically, we explored a threshold model that utilizes the outputs of binary classifiers to quantify the correctness of a movements into a performance score. We collected movements of 11 healthy subjects and 15 post-stroke survivors using a Kinect sensor …
Deepis: Susceptibility Estimation On Social Networks, Wenwen Xia, Yuchen Li, Jun Wu, Shenghong Li
Deepis: Susceptibility Estimation On Social Networks, Wenwen Xia, Yuchen Li, Jun Wu, Shenghong Li
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Influence diffusion estimation is a crucial problem in social network analysis. Most prior works mainly focus on predicting the total influence spread, i.e., the expected number of influenced nodes given an initial set of active nodes (aka. seeds). However, accurate estimation of susceptibility, i.e., the probability of being influenced for each individual, is more appealing and valuable in real-world applications. Previous methods generally adopt Monte Carlo simulation or heuristic rules to estimate the influence, resulting in high computational cost or unsatisfactory estimation error when these methods are used to estimate susceptibility. In this work, we propose to leverage graph neural …
