Understanding Learners' Motivation Through Machine Learning Analysis On Reflection Writing, Elizabeth Pluskwik, Yuezhou Wang, Lauren Singelmann
Integrated Engineering Department Publications
Educational data mining (EDM) is an emerging interdisciplinary field that utilizes a machine learning (ML) algorithm to collect and analyze educational data, aiming to better predict students' performance and retention. In this WIP paper, we report our methodology and preliminary results from utilizing a ML program to assess students’ motivation through their upper-division years in the XYZ project-based learning (PBL) program. ML, or more specifically, the clustering algorithm, opens the door to processing large amounts of student-written artifacts, such as reflection journals, project reports, and written assignments, and then identifies keywords that signal their levels of motivation (i.e., extrinsic vs. …

Information Technology & Decision Sciences Faculty Publications
(First paragraph) Smart manufacturing (SM) distinguishes itself from other system paradigms by introducing ‘smartness’ as a measure to a manufacturing system; however, researchers in different domains have different expectations of system smartness from their own perspectives. In this Special Issue (SI), SM refers to a system paradigm where digital technologies are deployed to enhance system smartness by (1) empowering physical resources in production, (2) utilizing virtual and dynamic assets over the internet to expand system capabilities, (3) supporting data-driven decision making at all domains and levels of businesses, or (4) reconfiguring systems to adapt changes and uncertainties in dynamic environments. …

University of Arkansas, Fayetteville
Technology Agency On Usage: Grounded Theory And Measurement Of Technology Induced Usage Behavior, Sandip Kumar Sarkar
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Most of today’s software applications involve a dyadic interplay between human and technology agency. The use of algorithms driven by user can alter users' interaction patterns by affording them novel and relevant technology action possibilities. I argue that algorithmic activities and features embedded in apps can keep users on IT applications (apps) for longer periods of time. I refer to the behavior of interacting with the apps for longer time than planned as technology-induced excessive use. While practitioners are beginning to recognize characteristics of technology-induced excessive use, research on this topic is very limited. I used a multimethod approach to …

Structured Encryption For Knowledge Graphs, Yujie Xue, Lanxiang Chen, Yu Mi, Lingfang Zeng, Fatemeh Rezaeibagha, Robert H. Deng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We investigate the problem of structured encryption (STE) for knowledge graphs (KGs) where the knowledge of data can be efficiently and privately queried. Presently, the application of natural language processing (NLP) for knowledge-based search is gradually emerging. Compared with the traditional search based only on keywords of documents-symmetric searchable encryption (SSE), the knowledge-based search system transforms the latent knowledge contained in documents into a semantic network as a knowledge base, which greatly improves the accuracy and relevance of search results. In order to develop a knowledge-based search, the contents of documents are analyzed and extracted using KG techniques (e.g. multi-relational …

Destress: Computation-Optimal And Communication-Efficient Decentralized Nonconvex Finite-Sum Optimization, Boyue Li, Zhize Li, Yuejie Chi
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Emerging applications in multiagent environments such as internet-of-things, networked sensing, autonomous systems, and federated learning, call for decentralized algorithms for finite-sum optimizations that are resource efficient in terms of both computation and communication. In this paper, we consider the prototypical setting where the agents work collaboratively to minimize the sum of local loss functions by only communicating with their neighbors over a predetermined network topology. We develop a new algorithm, called DEcentralized STochastic REcurSive gradient methodS (DESTRESS) for nonconvex finite-sum optimization, which matches the optimal incremental first-order oracle complexity of centralized algorithms for finding first-order stationary points, while maintaining communication …

Context: Championed by IBM’s vision of autonomic computing paper in 2003, the autonomic computing research field has seen increased research activity over the last 20 years. Several conferences (SEAMS, SASO, ICAC) and workshops (SISSY) have been established and have contributed to the autonomic computing knowledge base in search of a new kind of system — a self-adaptive system (SAS). These systems are characterized by being context-aware and can act on that awareness. The actions carried out could be on the system or on the context (or environment). The underlying goal of a SAS is the sustained achievement of its goals …

Crosscbr: Cross‑View Contrastive Learning For Bundle Recommendation, Yunshan Ma, Yingzhi He, An Zhang, Xiang Wang, Tat-Seng Chua
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Bundle recommendation aims to recommend a bundle of related items to users, which can satisfy the users' various needs with one-stop convenience. Recent methods usually take advantage of both user-bundle and user-item interactions information to obtain informative representations for users and bundles, corresponding to bundle view and item view, respectively. However, they either use a unified view without differentiation or loosely combine the predictions of two separate views, while the crucial cooperative association between the two views' representations is overlooked.In this work, we propose to model the cooperative association between the two different views through cross-view contrastive learning. By encouraging …

Gamification, an umbrella term for incorporating game design elements into non-game systems to make them more engaging and productive, is of interest to Information System (IS) communities, because it has wide applications, such as, gamification designs for workplace, learning and health apps, social media, online communities, and the gig economy. As a multidisciplinary research domain, gamification integrates elements of technology, human motivation, task design, human-computer-interface design, and algorithms/AI design, and is a fertile ground for IS researchers with a variety of different background. There are many challenges in conducting gamification research, including how to get started in this highly multidisciplinary …

Extract Human Mobility Patterns Powered By City Semantic Diagram, Zhangqing Shan, Weiwei Shan, Baihua Zheng
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
With widespread deployment of GPS devices, massive spatiotemporal trajectories became more accessible. This booming trend paved the solid data ground for researchers to discover the regularities or patterns of human mobility. However, there are still three challenges in semantic pattern extraction including semantic absence, semantic bias and semantic complexity. In this paper, we invent and apply a novel data structure namely City Semantic Diagram to overcome above three challenges. First, our approach resolves semantic absence by exactly identifying semantic behaviours from raw trajectories. Second, the delicate design of semantic purification helps us to detect semantic complexity from human mobility. Third, …

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Ransomware remains a major threat for organizations. Despite a lot of research done, existing solutions still have at least two shortcomings. (I) Slow detection time: by the time we realize that the system is under ransomware attack, almost all files have been encrypted. (II) Without a ransomwareaware backup scheme: Most existing systems, in particular those in SMEs (small and medium enterprises), do not have a proper backup system. Even they have it, either it is not a remote-site backup (i.e., files in the backup system may also be encrypted) or it is not designed for ransomware attacks. In this paper, …

Interpreting Trajectories From Multiple Views: A Hierarchical Self-Attention Network For Estimating The Time Of Arrival, Zebin Chen, Xiaolin Xiao, Yue-Jiao Gong, Jun Fang, Nan Ma, Hua Chai, Zhiguang Cao
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
Estimating the time of arrival is a crucial task in intelligent transportation systems. Although considerable efforts have been made to solve this problem, most of them decompose a trajectory into several segments and then compute the travel time by integrating the attributes from all segments. The segment view, though being able to depict the local traffic conditions straightforwardly, is insufficient to embody the intrinsic structure of trajectories on the road network. To overcome the limitation, this study proposes multi-view trajectory representation that comprehensively interprets a trajectory from the segment-, link-, and intersection-views. To fulfill the purpose, we design a hierarchical …

Variational Graph Author Topic Modeling, Ce Zhang, Hady Wirawan Lauw
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
While Variational Graph Auto-Encoder (VGAE) has presented promising ability to learn representations for documents, most existing VGAE methods do not model a latent topic structure and therefore lack semantic interpretability. Exploring hidden topics within documents and discovering key words associated with each topic allow us to develop a semantic interpretation of the corpus. Moreover, documents are usually associated with authors. For example, news reports have journalists specializing in writing certain type of events, academic papers have authors with expertise in certain research topics, etc. Modeling authorship information could benefit topic modeling, since documents by the same authors tend to reveal …

Multimodal Private Signatures, Khoa Nguyen, Fuchun Guo, Willy Susilo, Guomin Yang
Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems
We introduce Multimodal Private Signature (MPS) - an anonymous signature system that offers a novel accountability feature: it allows a designated opening authority to learn some partial information op about the signer’s identity id, and nothing beyond. Such partial information can flexibly be defined as op = id (as in group signatures), or as op = 0 (like in ring signatures), or more generally, as op = Gj (id), where Gj (·) is a certain disclosing function. Importantly, the value of op is known in advance by the signer, and hence, the latter can decide whether she/he wants to disclose …
