Access control technology is critical to the safe and reliable operation of information systems. However, owing to the massive policy scale and number of access control entities in open distributed information systems, such as big data, the Internet of Things, and cloud computing, existing access control permission decision methods suffer from a performance bottleneck. Consequently, the large access control time overhead affects the normal operation of business services. To overcome the above-mentioned problem, this paper proposes an efficient permission decision engine scheme based on machine learning (EPDE-ML). The proposed scheme converts the attribute-based access control request into a permission decision vector, and the access control permission decision problem is transformed into a binary classification problem that allows or denies access. The random forest algorithm is used to construct a vector decision classifier in order to establish an efficient permission decision engine. Experimental results show that the proposed method can achieve a permission decision accuracy of around 92.6% on a test dataset, and its permission decision efficiency is significantly higher than that of the benchmark method. In addition, its performance improvement becomes more obvious as the scale of policy increases.

Physiological measurements have been widely used by researchers and practitioners in order to address the stress detection challenge. So far, various datasets for stress detection have been recorded and are available to the research community for testing and benchmarking. The majority of the stress-related available datasets have been recorded while users were exposed to intense stressors, such as songs, movie clips, major hardware/software failures, image datasets, and gaming scenarios. However, it remains an open research question if such datasets can be used for creating models that will effectively detect stress in different contexts. This paper investigates the performance of the publicly available physiological dataset named WESAD (wearable stress and affect detection) in the context of user experience (UX) evaluation. More specifically, electrodermal activity (EDA) and skin temperature (ST) signals from WESAD were used in order to train three traditional machine learning classifiers and a simple feed forward deep learning artificial neural network combining continues variables and entity embeddings. Regarding the binary classification problem (stress vs. no stress), high accuracy (up to 97.4%), for both training approaches (deep-learning, machine learning), was achieved. Regarding the stress detection effectiveness of the created models in another context, such as user experience (UX) evaluation, the results were quite impressive. More specifically, the deep-learning model achieved a rather high agreement when a user-annotated dataset was used for validation.

Abstract It this paper it is proposed a new access control model – Hybrid Role and Attribute Based Access Control (HRABAC). It is an extension of Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). HRABAC is designed for information systems and enterprise software and combines the advantages of RBAC and Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC). HRABAC is easy configurable, fine-grained and supports role hierarchies. The proposed model HRABAC describes the access control scheme in Laravel package laravelroles/rolespermissions, which is developed by the author of the paper, as an answer to the requirements of practice of fine-grained and easy configurable access control solution. Laravel is chosen, because it is the most popular and the most widely used PHP framework. The package laravelroles/rolespermissions is developed on Laravel so that maximum number of programmers could use it. This package contains working and tested functionalities for managing users, roles and permissions, and it is applied in accounting information system.

Abstract Recently, research has been conducted to automatically control anesthesia using machine learning, with the aim of alleviating the shortage of anesthesiologists. In this study, we address the problem of predicting decisions made by anesthesiologists during surgery using machine learning; specifically, we formulate a decision making problem by increasing the flow rate at each time point in the continuous administration of analgesic remifentanil as a supervised binary classification problem. The experiments were conducted to evaluate the prediction performance using six machine learning models: logistic regression, support vector machine, random forest, LightGBM, artificial neural network, and long short-term memory (LSTM), using 210 case data collected during actual surgeries. The results demonstrated that when predicting the future increase in flow rate of remifentanil after 1 min, the model using LSTM was able to predict with scores of 0.659 for sensitivity, 0.732 for specificity, and 0.753 for ROC-AUC; this demonstrates the potential to predict the decisions made by anesthesiologists using machine learning. Furthermore, we examined the importance and contribution of the features of each model using shapley additive explanations—a method for interpreting predictions made by machine learning models. The trends indicated by the results were partially consistent with known clinical findings.

Multi-label classification (MLC) is a machine learning task aiming to predict multiple labels for a given instance. The widely known binary relevance (BR) learns one classifier for each label without considering the correlation among labels. In this paper, an improved binary relevance algorithm (IBRAM) is proposed. This algorithm is derived form binary relevance method. It sets two layers to decompose the multi-label classification problem into L independent binary classification problems respectively. In the first layer, binary classifier is built one for each label. In the second layer, the label information from the first layer is fully used to help to generate final predicting by consider the correlation among labels. Experiments on benchmark datasets validate the effectiveness of proposed approach against other well-established methods.

<p>Fraud and error are two underlying sources of misstated financial statements. Modern machine learning techniques provide a potential direction to distinguish the two factors in such statements. In this paper, a thorough evaluation is conducted evaluation on how the off-the-shelf machine learning tools perform for fraud/error classification. In particular, the task is treated as a standard binary classification problem; i.e., mapping from an input vector of financial indices to a class label which is either error or fraud. With a real dataset of financial restatements, this study empirically evaluates and analyzes five state-of-the-art classifiers, including logistic regression, artificial neural network, support vector machines, decision trees, and bagging. There are several important observations from the experimental results. First, it is observed that bagging performs the best among these commonly used general purpose machine learning tools. Second, the results show that the underlying relationship from the statement indices to the fraud/error decision is likely to be non-linear. Third, it is very challenging to distinguish error from fraud, and general machine learning approaches, though perform better than pure chance, leave much room for improvement. The results suggest that more advanced or task-specific solutions are needed for fraud/error classification.</p>

Sentiment analysis is a process in which we classify text data as positive, negative, or neutral or into some other category, which helps understand the sentiment behind the data. Mainly machine learning and natural language processing methods are combined in this process. One can find customer sentiment in reviews, tweets, comments, etc. A company needs to evaluate the sentiment behind the reviews of its product. Customer sentiment can be a valuable asset to the company. This ultimately helps the company make better decisions regarding its product marketing and improving product quality. This paper focuses on the sentiment analysis of customer reviews from Amazon. The reviews contain textual feedback along with a rating system. The aim is to build a supervised machine learning model to classify the review as positive or negative. As reviews are in the text format, there is a need to vectorize the text to numerical format for the computer to process the data. To do this, we use the Bag-of-words model and the TF-IDF (Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency) model. These two models are related to each other, and the aim is to find which model performs better in our case. The problem in our case is a binary classification problem; the logistic regression algorithm is used. Finally, the performance of the model is calculated using a metric called the F1 score.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Satellite imagery from earth observation missions enable processing big data to gather information about the world. Automatizing the creation of maps that reflect ground truth is a desirable outcome that would aid decision makers to take adequate actions in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. In order to harness the power that the availability of the new generation of satellites enable, it is necessary to implement techniques capable of handling annotations for the massive volume and variability of high spatial resolution imagery for further processing. However, the availability of public datasets for training machine learning models for image segmentation plays an important role for scalability.</p><p>This work focuses on bridging remote sensing and computer vision by providing an open source based pipeline for generating machine learning training datasets for road detection in an area of interest. The proposed pipeline addresses road detection as a binary classification problem using road annotations existing in OpenStreetMap for creating masks. For this case study, Planet images of 3m resolution are used for creating a training dataset for road detection in Kenya.</p>
