On Modeling Labor Markets For Fine-Grained Insights, Hendrik Santoso Sugiarto, Ee-Peng Lim
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
The labor market consists of job seekers looking for jobs, and job openings waiting for applications. Classical labor market models assume that salary is the primary factor explaining why job-seekers select certain jobs. In practice, job seeker behavior is much more complex and there are other factors that should be considered. In this paper, we therefore propose the Probabilistic Labor Model (PLM) which considers salary satisfaction, topic preference matching, and accessibility as important criteria for job seekers to decide when they apply for jobs. We also determine the user and job latent variables for each criterion and define a graphical …

Temporal Heterogeneous Interaction Graph Embedding For Next-Item Recommendation, Yugang Ji, Mingyang Yin, Yuan Fang, Hongxia Yang, Xiangwei Wang, Tianrui Jia, Chuan Shi
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In the scenario of next-item recommendation, previous methods attempt to model user preferences by capturing the evolution of sequential interactions. However, their sequential expression is often limited, without modeling complex dynamics that short-term demands can often be influenced by long-term habits. Moreover, few of them take into account the heterogeneous types of interaction between users and items. In this paper, we model such complex data as a Temporal Heterogeneous Interaction Graph (THIG) and learn both user and item embeddings on THIGs to address next-item recommendation. The main challenges involve two aspects: the complex dynamics and rich heterogeneity of interactions. We …

A Methodology To Identify Alternative Suitable Nosql Data Models Via Observation Of Relational Database Interactions, Paul M. Beach
Theses and Dissertations
The effectiveness and performance of data-intensive applications are influenced by the suitability of the data models upon which they are built. The relational data model has been the de facto data model underlying most database systems since the 1970’s. However, the recent emergence of NoSQL data models have provided users with alternative ways of storing and manipulating data. Previous research has demonstrated the potential value in applying NoSQL data models in non-distributed environments. However, knowing when to apply these data models has generally required inputs from system subject matter experts to make this determination. This research, sponsored by the Air …

Social Influence Attentive Neural Network For Friend-Enhanced Recommendation, Yuanfu Lu, Ruobing Xie, Chuan Shi, Yuan Fang, Wei Wang, Xu Zhang, Leyu Lin
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
With the thriving of online social networks, there emerges a new recommendation scenario in many social apps, called FriendEnhanced Recommendation (FER) in this paper. In FER, a user is recommended with items liked/shared by his/her friends (called a friend referral circle). These friend referrals are explicitly shown to users. Different from conventional social recommendation, the unique friend referral circle in FER may significantly change the recommendation paradigm, making users to pay more attention to enhanced social factors. In this paper, we first formulate the FER problem, and propose a novel Social Influence Attentive Neural network (SIAN) solution. In order to …

Machine Learning Applications For Drug Repurposing, Hansaim Lim
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
The cost of bringing a drug to market is astounding and the failure rate is intimidating. Drug discovery has been of limited success under the conventional reductionist model of one-drug-one-gene-one-disease paradigm, where a single disease-associated gene is identified and a molecular binder to the specific target is subsequently designed. Under the simplistic paradigm of drug discovery, a drug molecule is assumed to interact only with the intended on-target. However, small molecular drugs often interact with multiple targets, and those off-target interactions are not considered under the conventional paradigm. As a result, drug-induced side effects and adverse reactions are often neglected …

The Gap Of Semantic Parsing: A Survey On Automatic Math Word Problem Solvers, Dongxiang Zhang, Lei Wang, Luming Zhang, Bing Tian Dai, Heng Tao Shen
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Solving mathematical word problems (MWPs) automatically is challenging, primarily due to the semantic gap between human-readable words and machine-understandable logics. Despite the long history dated back to the 1960s, MWPs have regained intensive attention in the past few years with the advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Solving MWPs successfully is considered as a milestone towards general AI. Many systems have claimed promising results in self-crafted and small-scale datasets. However, when applied on large and diverse datasets, none of the proposed methods in the literature achieves high precision, revealing that current MWP solvers still have much room for improvement. This motivated …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this paper, we demonstrate a satisfaction-boosting bus scheduling assistant called FASTS, which assists users to find an optimal bus schedule. FASTS performs bus scheduling based on the constraints specified by the user in either a coarse-grained or a fine-grained manner, supports different explorations with a varying number of constraints, and provides analysis to quantify the performance of bus schedules and presents the results in a visually pleasing way. We demonstrate FASTS using real-world bus routes (396 routes) and one-week bus touch-on/touch-off records (28 million trip records) in Singapore.

Valid Time Rdf, Hsien-Tseng Wang
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
The Semantic Web aims at building a foundation of semantic-based data models and languages for not only manipulating data and knowledge, but also supporting decision making by machines. Naturally, time-varying data and knowledge are required in Semantic Web applications to incorporate time and further reason about it. However, the original specifications of Resource Description Framework (RDF) and Web Ontology Language (OWL) do not include constructs for handling time-varying data and knowledge. For simplicity, RDF model is confined to binary predicates, hence some form of reification is needed to represent higher-arity predicates. To this date, there are many proposals extending RDF …

This work is extended from our participation in the Dialogue System Technology Challenge (DSTC7), where we participated in the Audio Visual Scene-aware Dialogue System (AVSD) track. The AVSD track evaluates how dialogue systems understand video scenes and responds to users about the video visual and audio content. We propose a hierarchical attention approach on user queries, video caption, audio and visual features that contribute to improved evaluation results. We also apply a nonlinear feature fusion approach to combine the visual and audio features for better knowledge representation. Our proposed model shows superior performance in terms of both objective evaluation and …

Moving objects equipped with location-positioning devices continuously generate a large amount of spatio-temporal trajectory data. An interesting finding over a trajectory stream is a group of objects that are travelling together for a certain period of time. Existing studies on mining co-moving objects do not consider an important correlation between co-moving objects, which is the reoccurrence of the movement pattern. In this study, we define a problem of finding recurrent pattern of co-moving objects from streaming trajectories and propose an efficient solution that enables us to discover recent co-moving object patterns repeated within a given time period. Experimental results on …

Persona Perception Scale: Development And Exploratory Validation Of An Instrument For Evaluating Individuals' Perceptions Of Personas, Joni Salminen, Joao M. Santos, Haewoon Kwak, Jisun An, Soon-Gyo Jung
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Although used in many domains, the evaluation of personas is difficult due to the lack of validated measurement instruments. To tackle this challenge, we propose the Persona Perception Scale (PPS), a survey instrument for evaluating how individuals perceive personas. We develop the scale by reviewing relevant literature from social psychology, persona studies, and Human-Computer Interaction to find relevant constructs and items for measuring persona perceptions. Following initial pilot testing, we conduct an exploratory validation of the scale with 412 respondents and find that the constructs and items of the scale perform satisfactorily for deployment. The research has implications for both …

Deep Learning techniques have been prevalent in various domains, and more and more open source projects in GitHub rely on deep learning libraries to implement their algorithms. To that end, they should always keep pace with the latest versions of deep learning libraries to make the best use of deep learning libraries. Aptly managing the versions of deep learning libraries can help projects avoid crashes or security issues caused by deep learning libraries. Unfortunately, very few studies have been done on the dependency networks of deep learning libraries. In this paper, we take the first step to perform an exploratory …

Time-Warped Sparse Non-Negative Factorization For Functional Data Analysis, Chen Zhang, Steven C. H. Hoi, Fugee Tsung
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
This article proposes a novel time-warped sparse non-negative factorization method for functional data analysis. The proposed method on the one hand guarantees the extracted basis functions and their coefficients to be positive and interpretable, and on the other hand is able to handle weakly correlated functions with different features. Furthermore, the method incorporates time warping into factorization and hence allows the extracted basis functions of different samples to have temporal deformations. An efficient framework of estimation algorithms is proposed based on a greedy variable selection approach. Numerical studies together with case studies on real-world data demonstrate the efficacy and applicability …

Deepstyle: User Style Embedding For Authorship Attribution Of Short Texts, Zhiqiang Hu, Roy Ka-Wei Lee, Lei Wang, Ee-Peng Lim
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Authorship attribution (AA), which is the task of finding the owner of a given text, is an important and widely studied research topic with many applications. Recent works have shown that deep learning methods could achieve significant accuracy improvement for the AA task. Nevertheless, most of these proposed methods represent user posts using a single type of features (e.g., word bi-grams) and adopt a text classification approach to address the task. Furthermore, these methods offer very limited explainability of the AA results. In this paper, we address these limitations by proposing DeepStyle, a novel embedding-based framework that learns the representations …

Weakly Paired Multi-Domain Image Translation, M.Y. Zhang, Zhiwu Huang, D.P. Paudel, J. Thoma, Gool L. Van
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
In this paper, we aim at studying the new problem of weakly paired multi-domain image translation. To this end, we collect a dataset that contains weakly paired images from multiple domains. Two images are considered to be weakly paired if they are captured from nearby locations and share an overlapping field of view. These images are possibly captured by two asynchronous cameras—often resulting in images from separate domains, e.g. summer and winter. Major motivations for using weakly paired images are: (i) performance improvement towards that of paired data; (ii) cheap labels and abundant data availability. For the first time in …
