At present, most of departments in colleges have their own official accounts, which have become the primary channel for announcements and news. In the official accounts, the popularity of articles is influenced by many different factors, such as the content of articles, the aesthetics of the layout, and so on. This paper mainly studies how to learn a computational model for predicting page view on college official accounts with quality-aware features extracted from pictures. First, we built a new picture database by collecting 1,000 pictures from the official accounts of nine well-known universities in the city of Beijing. Then, we proposed a new model for predicting page view by using a selective ensemble technology to fuse three sets of quality-aware features that could represent how a picture looks. Experimental results show that the proposed model has achieved competitive performance against state-of-the-art relevant models on the task for inferring page view from pictures on college official accounts.

Multimodal summarization with multimodal output (MSMO) is to generate a multimodal summary for a multimodal news report, which has been proven to effectively improve users' satisfaction. The existing MSMO methods are trained by the target of text modality, leading to the modality-bias problem that ignores the quality of model-selected image during training. To alleviate this problem, we propose a multimodal objective function with the guidance of multimodal reference to use the loss from the summary generation and the image selection. Due to the lack of multimodal reference data, we present two strategies, i.e., ROUGE-ranking and Order-ranking, to construct the multimodal reference by extending the text reference. Meanwhile, to better evaluate multimodal outputs, we propose a novel evaluation metric based on joint multimodal representation, projecting the model output and multimodal reference into a joint semantic space during evaluation. Experimental results have shown that our proposed model achieves the new state-of-the-art on both automatic and manual evaluation metrics. Besides, our proposed evaluation method can effectively improve the correlation with human judgments.

Weakly Supervised

Analyzing public attitudes plays an important role in opinion mining systems. Stance detection aims to determine from a text whether its author is in favor of, against, or neutral towards a given target. One challenge of this task is that a text may not explicitly express an attitude towards the target, but existing approaches utilize target content alone to build models. Moreover, although weakly supervised approaches have been proposed to ease the burden of manually annotating largescale training data, such approaches are confronted with noisy labeling problem. To address the above two issues, in this paper, we propose a Topic-Aware Reinforced Model (TARM) for weakly supervised stance detection. Our model consists of two complementary components: (1) a detection network that incorporates target-related topic information into representation learning for identifying stance effectively; (2) a policy network that learns to eliminate noisy instances from auto-labeled data based on off-policy reinforcement learning. Two networks are alternately optimized to improve each other’s performances. Experimental results demonstrate that our proposed model TARM outperforms the state-of-the-art approaches.

Document Triage

Abstract Background Biomedical document triage is the foundation of biomedical information extraction, which is important to precision medicine. Recently, some neural networks-based methods have been proposed to classify biomedical documents automatically. In the biomedical domain, documents are often very long and often contain very complicated sentences. However, the current methods still find it difficult to capture important features across sentences. Results In this paper, we propose a hierarchical attention-based capsule model for biomedical document triage. The proposed model effectively employs hierarchical attention mechanism and capsule networks to capture valuable features across sentences and construct a final latent feature representation for a document. We evaluated our model on three public corpora. Conclusions Experimental results showed that both hierarchical attention mechanism and capsule networks are helpful in biomedical document triage task. Our method proved itself highly competitive or superior compared with other state-of-the-art methods.

A new model is proposed for analyzing the capacitive effects in a newly developed high frequency coaxial transformer (HFCT). The proposed model can describe both the electric energy storage and common-mode (CM) electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise behaviors of a transformer, considering the voltage distribution in the HFCT windings. To determine the parameters of the model, a parasitic capacitance network is developed to describe the HFCT’s real winding’s structure, and the distributed parasitic capacitances of the network are evaluated using FEM based on the theory of capacitances in a multi-conductor system. The calculated inter-capacitance of the HFCT is in good agreement with the experimental results.

Authorship attribution deals with identifying the authors of anonymous texts. Traditionally, research in this field has focused on formal texts, such as essays and novels, but recently more attention has been given to texts generated by on-line users, such as e-mails and blogs. Authorship attribution of such on-line texts is a more challenging task than traditional authorship attribution, because such texts tend to be short, and the number of candidate authors is often larger than in traditional settings. We address this challenge by using topic models to obtain author representations. In addition to exploring novel ways of applying two popular topic models to this task, we test our new model that projects authors and documents to two disjoint topic spaces. Utilizing our model in authorship attribution yields state-of-the-art performance on several data sets, containing either formal texts written by a few authors or informal texts generated by tens to thousands of on-line users. We also present experimental results that demonstrate the applicability of topical author representations to two other problems: inferring the sentiment polarity of texts, and predicting the ratings that users would give to items such as movies.

Trust is an important factor in the interaction between humans and automation that can mediate the reliance of human operators. In this work, we evaluate a computational model of human trust on swarm systems based on Sheridan (2019)’s modified Kalman estimation model using existing experiment data (Nam, Li, Li, Lewis, & Sycara, 2018). Results show that our Kalman Filter model outperforms existing state of the art alternatives including dynamic Bayesian networks and inverse reinforcement learning. This work is novel in that: 1) The Kalman estimator is the first computational model formulating the human trust evolution as a combination of both open-loop trust anticipation and closed-loop trust feedback. 2) The proposed model considers the operator’s cognitive time lag between perceiving and processing the system display. 3) The proposed model provides a personalized model for each individual and reaches a better level of fitness than state-of-the-art alternatives.

Types Of Information

Combinational  network embedding, which learns the node representation by exploring both  topological and non-topological information, becomes popular due to the fact that the two types of information are complementing each other.  Most of the existing methods either consider the  topological and non-topological  information being aligned or possess predetermined preferences during the embedding process.Unfortunately, previous methods  fail to either explicitly describe the correlations between topological and non-topological information or adaptively weight their impacts. To address the existing issues, three new assumptions are proposed to better describe the embedding space and its properties. With the proposed assumptions, nodes, communities and topics are mapped into one embedding space. A novel generative model is proposed to formulate the generation process of the network and content from the embeddings, with respect to the Bayesian framework. The proposed model automatically leans to the information which is more discriminative.The embedding result can be obtained by maximizing the posterior distribution by adopting the variational inference and reparameterization trick. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method gives superior performances compared to the state-of-the-art methods when a variety of real-world networks is analyzed.

<p>In computer vision, image classification is one of the potential image processing tasks. Nowadays, fish classification is a wide considered issue within the areas of machine learning and image segmentation. Moreover, it has been extended to a variety of domains, such as marketing strategies. This paper presents an effective fish classification method based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs). The experiments were conducted on the new dataset of Bangladesh’s indigenous fish species with three kinds of splitting: 80-20%, 75-25%, and 70-30%. We provide a comprehensive comparison of several popular optimizers of CNN. In total, we perform a comparative analysis of 5 different state-of-the-art gradient descent-based optimizers, namely adaptive delta (AdaDelta), stochastic gradient descent (SGD), adaptive momentum (Adam), adaptive max pooling (Adamax), Root mean square propagation (Rmsprop), for CNN. Overall, the obtained experimental results show that Rmsprop, Adam, Adamax performed well compared to the other optimization techniques used, while AdaDelta and SGD performed the worst. Furthermore, the experimental results demonstrated that Adam optimizer attained the best results in performance measures for 70-30% and 80-20% splitting experiments, while the Rmsprop optimizer attained the best results in terms of performance measures of 70-25% splitting experiments. Finally, the proposed model is then compared with state-of-the-art deep CNNs models. Therefore, the proposed model attained the best accuracy of 98.46% in enhancing the CNN ability in classification, among others.</p>

In a rapidly growing industry like telecommunications, customer churn prediction is a crucial challenge affecting the sustainability of the business as a whole. The fact that retaining a customer is more profitable than acquiring new customers is important to predict potential churners and present them with offers to prevent them from churning. This work presents a stacked CLV-based heuristic incorporated ensemble (SCHIE) to enable identification of potential churners so as to provide them with offers that can eventually aid in retaining them. The proposed model is composed of two levels of prediction followed by a recommendation to reduce customer churn. The first level involves identifying effective models to predict potential churners. This is followed by result segregation, CLV-based prediction, and user shortlisting for offers. Experimental results indicate high efficiencies in predicting potential churners and non-churners. The proposed model is found to reduce the overall loss by up to 50% in comparison to state-of-the-art models.

Multi-target regression (MTR) comprises the prediction of multiple continuous target variables from a common set of input variables. There are two major challenges when addressing the MTR problem: the exploration of the inter-target dependencies and the modeling of complex input–output relationships. This paper proposes a neural network model that is able to simultaneously address these two challenges in a flexible way. A deep architecture well suited for learning multiple continuous outputs is designed, providing some flexibility to model the inter-target relationships by sharing network parameters as well as the possibility to exploit target-specific patterns by learning a set of nonshared parameters for each target. The effectiveness of the proposal is analyzed through an extensive experimental study on 18 datasets, demonstrating the benefits of using a shared representation that exploits the commonalities between target variables. According to the experimental results, the proposed model is competitive with respect to the state-of-the-art in MTR.
