Assessing Topical Homogeneity With Word Embedding And Distance Matrices, Jeffrey M. Stanton, Yisi Sang 2020 Syracuse University

Assessing Topical Homogeneity With Word Embedding And Distance Matrices, Jeffrey M. Stanton, Yisi Sang

School of Information Studies - Faculty Scholarship

Researchers from many fields have used statistical tools to make sense of large bodies of text. Many tools support quantitative analysis of documents within a corpus, but relatively few studies have examined statistical characteristics of whole corpora. Statistical summaries of whole corpora and comparisons between corpora have potential application in the analysis of topically organized applications such social media platforms. In this study, we created matrix representations of several corpora and examined several statistical tests to make comparisons between pairs of corpora with respect to the topical homogeneity of documents within each corpus. Results of three experiments suggested that a …

Testing Mediation Via Indirect Effects In Pls-Sem: A Social Networking Site Illustration, Murad Moqbel, Rakesh Guduru, Ahasan Harun

Information Systems Faculty Publications

Mediation analysis, in the context of structural equation modeling via partial least squares (PLSSEM), affords a better understanding of the relationships among independent and dependent variables, when the variables seem to not have a definite connection. In this paper, we demonstrate such an analysis in the context of social networking sites, using WarpPLS, a leading PLS-SEM software tool.

Tpr: Text-Aware Preference Ranking For Recommender Systems, Yu-Neng CHUANG, Chih-Ming CHEN, Chuan-Ju WANG, Ming-Feng TSAI, Yuan FANG, Ee-peng LIM 2020 Singapore Management University

Tpr: Text-Aware Preference Ranking For Recommender Systems, Yu-Neng Chuang, Chih-Ming Chen, Chuan-Ju Wang, Ming-Feng Tsai, Yuan Fang, Ee-Peng Lim

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Textual data is common and informative auxiliary information for recommender systems. Most prior art utilizes text for rating prediction, but rare work connects it to top-N recommendation. Moreover, although advanced recommendation models capable of incorporating auxiliary information have been developed, none of these are specifically designed to model textual information, yielding a limited usage scenario for typical user-to-item recommendation. In this work, we present a framework of text-aware preference ranking (TPR) for top-N recommendation, in which we comprehensively model the joint association of user-item interaction and relations between items and associated text. Using the TPR framework, we construct a joint …


Towards Locality-Aware Meta-Learning Of Tail Node Embeddings On Networks, Zemin LIU, Wentao ZHANG, Yuan FANG, Xinming ZHANG, Steven C. H. HOI 2020 Singapore Management University

Towards Locality-Aware Meta-Learning Of Tail Node Embeddings On Networks, Zemin Liu, Wentao Zhang, Yuan Fang, Xinming Zhang, Steven C. H. Hoi

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Network embedding is an active research area due to the prevalence of network-structured data. While the state of the art often learns high-quality embedding vectors for high-degree nodes with abundant structural connectivity, the quality of the embedding vectors for low-degree or tail nodes is often suboptimal due to their limited structural connectivity. While many real-world networks are long-tailed, to date little effort has been devoted to tail node embedding. In this paper, we formulate the goal of learning tail node embeddings as a few-shot regression problem, given the few links on each tail node. In particular, since each node resides …

Presentation Of Computer Security Risk Information: Impact Of Framing And Base Size, Xinhui ZHAN, Fiona Fui-hoon NAH, Keng SIAU, Richard HALL, Maggie CHENG 2020 Singapore Management University

Presentation Of Computer Security Risk Information: Impact Of Framing And Base Size, Xinhui Zhan, Fiona Fui-Hoon Nah, Keng Siau, Richard Hall, Maggie Cheng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

This research explores how the presentation of computer security risks impacts users’ risk perceptions and behavior. It draws on Prospect Theory to generate hypotheses related to users’ decision-making in the computer security context. A 2 × 3 mixed factorial experimental design (N = 178) was carried out and the results show that framing and base size of information on computer security risks influence users’ perceived risk and risk-taking behavior. More specifically, negative framing and large base size increase users’ perceived risk and reduce users’ risk-taking behavior. The findings from this research suggest that using negative framing and large base size …


Meta-Rcnn: Meta Learning For Few-Shot Object Detection, Xiongwei WU, Doyen SAHOO, Steven HOI 2020 Singapore Management University

Meta-Rcnn: Meta Learning For Few-Shot Object Detection, Xiongwei Wu, Doyen Sahoo, Steven Hoi

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Despite significant advances in deep learning based object detection in recent years, training effective detectors in a small data regime remains an open challenge. This is very important since labelling training data for object detection is often very expensive and time-consuming. In this paper, we investigate the problem of few-shot object detection, where a detector has access to only limited amounts of annotated data. Based on the meta-learning principle, we propose a new meta-learning framework for object detection named "Meta-RCNN", which learns the ability to perform few-shot detection via meta-learning. Specifically, Meta-RCNN learns an object detector in an episodic learning …


Federated Topic Discovery: A Semantic Consistent Approach, Yexuan SHI, Yongxin TONG, Zhiyang SU, Di JIANG, Zimu ZHOU, Wenbin ZHANG 2020 Singapore Management University

Federated Topic Discovery: A Semantic Consistent Approach, Yexuan Shi, Yongxin Tong, Zhiyang Su, Di Jiang, Zimu Zhou, Wenbin Zhang

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

General-purpose topic models have widespread industrial applications. Yet high-quality topic modeling is becoming increasingly challenging because accurate models require large amounts of training data typically owned by multiple parties, who are often unwilling to share their sensitive data for collaborative training without guarantees on their data privacy. To enable effective privacy-preserving multiparty topic modeling, we propose a novel federated general-purpose topic model named private and consistent topic discovery (PC-TD). On the one hand, PC-TD seamlessly integrates differential privacy in topic modeling to provide privacy guarantees on sensitive data of different parties. On the other hand, PC-TD exploits multiple sources of …


Cross-Domain Cross-Modal Food Transfer, Bin ZHU, Chong-wah NGO, Jingjing CHEN 2020 Singapore Management University

Cross-Domain Cross-Modal Food Transfer, Bin Zhu, Chong-Wah Ngo, Jingjing Chen

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

The recent works in cross-modal image-to-recipe retrieval pave a new way to scale up food recognition. By learning the joint space between food images and recipes, food recognition is boiled down as a retrieval problem by evaluating the similarity of embedded features. The major drawback, nevertheless, is the difficulty in applying an already-trained model to recognize different cuisines of dishes unknown to the model. In general, model updating with new training examples, in the form of image-recipe pairs, is required to adapt a model to new cooking styles in a cuisine. Nevertheless, in practice, acquiring sufficient number of image-recipe pairs …

Annapurna: An Automated Smartwatch-Based Eating Detection And Food Journaling System, Sougata Sen, Vigneshwaran Subbaraju, Archan Misra, Rajesh Krishna Balan, Youngki Lee

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Maintaining a food journal can allow an individual to monitor eating habits, including unhealthy eating sessions, food items causing severe reactions, or portion size related information. However, manually maintaining a food journal can be burdensome. In this paper, we explore the vision of a pervasive, automated, completely unobtrusive, food journaling system using a commodity smartwatch. We present a prototype system — Annapurna— which is composed of three key components: (a) a smartwatch-based gesture recognizer that can robustly identify eating-specific gestures occurring anywhere, (b) a smartwatch-based image captor that obtains a small set of relevant images (containing views of the food …
