Recently, link prediction has attracted more attention from various disciplines such as computer science, bioinformatics and economics. In link prediction, numerous information such as network topology, profile information and user-generated contents are considered to discover missing links between nodes. Whereas numerous previous researches had focused on the structural features of the networks for link prediction, recent studies have shown more interest in profile and content information, too. So, some of these researches combine structural and content information. However, some issues such as scalability and feature engineering need to be investigated to solve a few remaining problems. Moreover, most of the previous researches are presented only for undirected and unweighted networks. In this article, a novel link prediction framework named ‘DeepLink’ is presented, which is based on deep learning techniques. While deep learning has the advantage of extracting automatically the best features for link prediction, many other link prediction algorithms need manual feature engineering. Moreover, in the proposed framework, both structural and content information are employed. The framework is capable of using different structural feature vectors that are prepared by various link prediction methods. It learns all proximity orders that are presented on a network during the structural feature learning. We have evaluated the effectiveness of DeepLink on two real social network datasets, Telegram and irBlogs. On both datasets, the proposed framework outperforms several other structural and hybrid approaches for link prediction.

As Internet technologies develop continuously social networks are getting more popular day by day. People are connected with each other via virtual applications. Using the Link Prediction in social networks more people get connected, may be they are friends, may be work together at the same workplace and may be their education are. Machine learning techniques are used to analyze the link between the nodes of the network and also create a better link prediction model through deep learning. The objective of this research is to measure the performance using the different techniques to predict link between the social networks. Using deep learning, feature engineering can be reduced for link prediction. In this research, the feature based learning is used to predict the link for better performance. Dataset is obtained by scraping the profile of Facebook users and they are used along with the random forest and graph convolution neural network to measure the performance of link prediction in social networks.

The problem of predicting links has gained much attention in recent years due to its vast application in various domains such as sociology, network analysis, information science, etc. Many methods have been proposed for link prediction such as RA, AA, CCLP, etc. These methods required hand-crafted structural features to calculate the similarity scores between a pair of nodes in a network. Some methods use local structural information while others use global information of a graph. These methods do not tell which properties are better than others. With an in-depth analysis of these methods, we understand that one way to overcome this problem is to consider network structure and node attribute information to capture the discriminative features for link prediction tasks. We proposed a deep learning Autoencoder based Link Prediction (ALP) architecture for the latent representation of a graph, unified with non-negative matrix factorization to automatically determine the underlying roles in a network, after that assigning a mixed-membership of these roles to each node in the network. The idea is to transfer these roles as a feature vector for the link prediction task in the network. Further, cosine similarity is applied after getting the required features to compute the pairwise similarity score between the nodes. We present the performance of the algorithm on the real-world datasets, where it gives the competitive result compared to other algorithms.

While even the most common definition of pain is under debate, pain assessment has remained the same for decades. But the paramount importance of precise pain management for successful healthcare has encouraged initiatives to improve the way pain is assessed. Recent approaches have proposed automatic pain evaluation systems using machine learning models trained with data coming from behavioural or physiological sensors. Although yielding promising results, machine learning studies for sensor-based pain recognition remain scattered and not necessarily easy to compare to each other. In particular, the important process of extracting features is usually optimised towards specific datasets. We thus introduce a comparison of feature extraction methods for pain recognition based on physiological sensors in this paper. In addition, the PainMonit Database (PMDB), a new dataset including both objective and subjective annotations for heat-induced pain in 52 subjects, is introduced. In total, five different approaches including techniques based on feature engineering and feature learning with deep learning are evaluated on the BioVid and PMDB datasets. Our studies highlight the following insights: (1) Simple feature engineering approaches can still compete with deep learning approaches in terms of performance. (2) More complex deep learning architectures do not yield better performance compared to simpler ones. (3) Subjective self-reports by subjects can be used instead of objective temperature-based annotations to build a robust pain recognition system.

Automatic speech emotion recognition (SER) is a challenging component of human-computer interaction (HCI). Existing literatures mainly focus on evaluating the SER performance by means of training and testing on a single corpus with a single language setting. However, in many practical applications, there are great differences between the training corpus and testing corpus. Due to the diversity of different speech emotional corpus or languages, most previous SER methods do not perform well when applied in real-world cross-corpus or cross-language scenarios. Inspired by the powerful feature learning ability of recently-emerged deep learning techniques, various advanced deep learning models have increasingly been adopted for cross-corpus SER. This paper aims to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive survey of cross-corpus SER, especially for various deep learning techniques associated with supervised, unsupervised and semi-supervised learning in this area. In addition, this paper also highlights different challenges and opportunities on cross-corpus SER tasks, and points out its future trends.

With the widespread of modern technologies and social media networks, a new form of bullying occurring anytime and anywhere has emerged. This new phenomenon, known as cyberaggression or cyberbullying, refers to aggressive and intentional acts aiming at repeatedly causing harm to other person involving rude, insulting, offensive, teasing or demoralising comments through online social media. As these aggressions represent a threatening experience to Internet users, especially kids and teens who are still shaping their identities, social relations and well-being, it is crucial to understand how cyberbullying occurs to prevent it from escalating. Considering the massive information on the Web, the developing of intelligent techniques for automatically detecting harmful content is gaining importance, allowing the monitoring of large-scale social media and the early detection of unwanted and aggressive situations. Even though several approaches have been developed over the last few years based both on traditional and deep learning techniques, several concerns arise over the duplication of research and the difficulty of comparing results. Moreover, there is no agreement regarding neither which type of technique is better suited for the task, nor the type of features in which learning should be based. The goal of this work is to shed some light on the effects of learning paradigms and feature engineering approaches for detecting aggressions in social media texts. In this context, this work provides an evaluation of diverse traditional and deep learning techniques based on diverse sets of features, across multiple social media sites.

Abstract Recent advances in Deep Neural Network (DNN) architectures have received a great deal of attention due to their ability to outperform state-of-the-art machine learning techniques across a wide range of application, as well as automating the feature engineering process. In this paper, we broadly study the applicability of deep learning to website fingerprinting. First, we show that unsupervised DNNs can generate lowdimensional informative features that improve the performance of state-of-the-art website fingerprinting attacks. Second, when used as classifiers, we show that they can exceed performance of existing attacks across a range of application scenarios, including fingerprinting Tor website traces, fingerprinting search engine queries over Tor, defeating fingerprinting defenses, and fingerprinting TLS-encrypted websites. Finally, we investigate which site-level features of a website influence its fingerprintability by DNNs.
