Online App Review Analysis for Identifying Emerging Issues

Detecting emerging issues (e.g., new bugs) timely and precisely is crucial for developers to update their apps. App reviews provide an opportunity to proactively collect user complaints and promptly improve apps' user experience, in terms of bug fixing and feature refinement. However, the tremendous quantities of reviews and noise words (e.g., misspelled words) increase the difficulties in accurately identifying newly-appearing app issues. In this paper, we propose a novel and automated framework IDEA, which aims to IDentify Emerging App issues effectively based on online review analysis. We evaluate IDEA on six popular apps from Google Play and Apple's App Store, employing the official app changelogs as our ground truth. Experiment results demonstrate the effectiveness of IDEA in identifying emerging app issues. Feedback from engineers and product managers shows that 88.9% of them think that the identified issues can facilitate app development in practice. Moreover, we have successfully applied IDEA to several products of Tencent, which serve hundreds of millions of users.
Generative Modeling with Conditional Autoencoders: Building an Integrated Cell

We present a conditional generative model to learn variation in cell and nuclear morphology and the location of subcellular structures from microscopy images. Our model generalizes to a wide range of subcellular localization and allows for a probabilistic interpretation of cell and nuclear morphology and structure localization from fluorescence images. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach by producing photorealistic cell images using our generative model. The conditional nature of the model provides the ability to predict the localization of unobserved structures given cell and nuclear morphology.
Decreased mental time travel to the past correlates with default-mode network disintegration under lysergic acid diethylamide.

This paper reports on the effects of LSD on mental time travel during spontaneous mentation. Twenty healthy volunteers participated in a placebo-controlled crossover study, incorporating intravenous administration of LSD (75 μg) and placebo (saline) prior to functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Six independent, blind judges analysed mentation reports acquired during structured interviews performed shortly after the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans (approximately 2.5 h post-administration). Within each report, specific linguistic references to mental spaces for the past, present and future were identified. Results revealed significantly fewer mental spaces for the past under LSD and this effect correlated with the general intensity of the drug's subjective effects. No differences in the number of mental spaces for the present or future were observed. Consistent with the previously proposed role of the default-mode network (DMN) in autobiographical memory recollection and ruminative thought, decreased resting-state functional connectivity (RSFC) within the DMN correlated with decreased mental time travel to the past. These results are discussed in relation to potential therapeutic applications of LSD and related psychedelics, e.g. in the treatment of depression, for which excessive reflection on one's past, likely mediated by DMN functioning, is symptomatic.
What can N-grams learn for malware detection?

Recent work has shown that byte n-grams learn mostly low entropy features, such as function imports and strings, which has brought into question whether byte n-grams can learn information corresponding to higher entropy levels, such as binary code. We investigate that hypothesis in this work by performing byte n-gram analysis on only specific sub-sections of the binary file, and compare to results obtained by n-gram analysis on assembly code generated from disassembled binaries. We do this by leveraging the change in model performance and ensembles to glean insights about the data. In doing so we discover that byte n-grams can learn from the code regions, but do not necessarily learn any new information. We also discover that assembly n-grams may not be as effective as previously thought and that disambiguating instructions by their binary opcode, an approach not previously used for malware detection, is critical for model generalization.
Exploitation of Dual-Polarization Diversity for 5G Millimeter-Wave MIMO Beamforming Systems

For the first time, to the best of our knowledge, this paper reports a complete millimeter wave (mmWave) wireless system, which coherently utilizes polarization diversity, multi-input multioutput (MIMO), and beamforming technologies applicable for upcoming fifth generation wireless mobile terminals. Using an interdisciplinary approach across the entire layers constituting of antennas, RF architecture, and digital modem, the polarization of the presented mmWave beamforming antenna system dynamically adapts to the channel environments and MIMO transmission modes. Empirical investigations, which are taken under real-life environments, ascertain that implementing switchable dual-polarized array antennas can alleviate the complexity of the beam searching procedure and MIMO channelization. In addition, experimental results acquired from intensive system level tests indicate more than 22 dB averaged cross-polarization discrimination under polarized MIMO channel conditions at the 60 GHz band. The beam selection algorithm that can be easily implemented based on power metric is confirmed to feature a 99.5% accuracy in comparison with the optimal selection algorithm derived from the theoretical maximal capacity.
Time Expression Recognition Using a Constituent-based Tagging Scheme

Wefind from four datasets that time expressions are formed by loose structure and the words used to express time information can differentiate time expressions from common text. The findings drive us to design a learning method named TOMN to model time expressions. TOMN defines a constituent-based tagging scheme named TOMN scheme with four tags, namely T, O, M, and N, indicating the constituents of time expression, namely Time token,Modifier,Numeral, and the words Outside time expression. In modeling, TOMN assigns a word with a TOMN tag under conditional random fields with minimal features. Essentially, our constituent-based TOMN scheme overcomes the problem of inconsistent tag assignment that is caused by the conventional position-based tagging schemes (e.g., BIO scheme and BILOU scheme). Experiments show that TOMN is equally or more effective than state-of-the-art methods on various datasets, and much more robust on cross-datasets. Moreover, our analysis can explain many empirical observations in other works about time expression recognition and named entity recognition.  Xiaoshi Zhong and Erik Cambria.

Compact MMIC CPW and asymmetric CPS branch-line couplers and Wilkinson dividers using shunt and series stub loading

Circuit size may be reduced by up to 60% by embedding series and shunt uniplanar stubs inside the main uniplanar line since this reuses physical space in the longitudinal direction. This size-efficient stub loading of the main uniplanar line results in robust options for designing compact K-band 90/spl deg/ hybrid couplers and Wilkinson dividers. The approach is confirmed by experimental results that agree well with theory up to at least 30 GHz using both coplanar waveguide (CPW) and asymmetric coplanar stripline (ACPS). Furthermore, these couplers and dividers do not use lumped inductors or capacitors and, consequently, have excellent design accuracy even at millimeter-wave frequencies. Additionally, it is shown that it is possible to design an ACPS 90/spl deg/ branch-line coupler without the conventional CPW quarter wavelength transformers used to match the input and output port characteristic impedances.
End-node Fingerprinting for Malware Detection on HTTPS Data

One of the current challenges in network intrusion detection research is the malware communicating over HTTPS protocol. Usually the task is to detect infected end-nodes with this type of malware by monitoring network traffic. The challenge lies in a very limited number of weak features that can be extracted from the network traffic capture of encrypted HTTP communication. This paper suggests a novel fingerprinting method that addresses this problem by building a higher-level end-node representation on top of the weak features. Conducted large-scale experiments on real network data show superior performance of the proposed method over the state-of-the-art solution in terms of both a lower number of produced false alarms (precision) and a higher number of detected infections (recall).
A review on cyber security datasets for machine learning algorithms

It is an undeniable fact that currently information is a pretty significant presence for all companies or organizations. Therefore protecting its security is crucial and the security models driven by real datasets has become quite important. The operations based on military, government, commercial and civilians are linked to the security and availability of computer systems and network. From this point of security, the network security is a significant issue because the capacity of attacks is unceasingly rising over the years and they turn into be more sophisticated and distributed. The objective of this review is to explain and compare the most commonly used datasets. This paper focuses on the datasets used in artificial intelligent and machine learning techniques, which are the primary tools for analyzing network traffic and detecting abnormalities.
Social media driven image retrieval

People often try to find an image using a short query and images are usually indexed using short annotations. Matching the query vocabulary with the indexing vocabulary is a difficult problem when little text is available. Textual user generated content in Web 2.0 platforms contains a wealth of data that can help solve this problem. Here we describe how to use Wikipedia and Flickr content to improve this match. The initial query is launched in Flickr and we create a query model based on co-occurring terms. We also calculate nearby concepts using Wikipedia and use these to expand the query. The final results are obtained by ranking the results for the expanded query using the similarity between their annotation and the Flickr model. Evaluation of these expansion and ranking techniques, over the Image CLEF 2010 Wikipedia Collection containing 237,434 images and their multilingual textual annotations, shows that a consistent improvement compared to state of the art methods.
Review of Face Detection Systems Based Artificial Neural Networks Algorithms

Face detection is one of the most relevant applications of image processing and biometric systems. Artificial neural networks (ANN) have been used in the field of image processing and pattern recognition. There is lack of literature surveys which give overview about the studies and researches related to the using of ANN in face detection. Therefore, this research includes a general review of face detection studies and systems which based on different ANN approaches and algorithms. The strengths and limitations of these literature studies and systems were included also.
A Survey Of Cross-lingual Word Embedding Models

Cross-lingual representations of words enable us to reason about word meaning in multilingual contexts and are a key facilitator of cross-lingual transfer when developing natural language processing models for low-resource languages. In this survey, we provide a comprehensive typology of cross-lingual word embedding models. We compare their data requirements and objective functions. The recurring theme of the survey is that many of the models presented in the literature optimize for the same objectives, and that seemingly different models are often equivalent modulo optimization strategies, hyper-parameters, and such. We also discuss the different ways cross-lingual word embeddings are evaluated, as well as future challenges and research horizons.
Childhood predictors differentiate life-course persistent and adolescence-limited antisocial pathways among males and females.

This article reports a comparison on childhood risk factors of males and females exhibiting childhood-onset and adolescent-onset antisocial behavior, using data from the Dunedin longitudinal study. Childhood-onset delinquents had childhoods of inadequate parenting, neurocognitive problems, and temperament and behavior problems, whereas adolescent-onset delinquents did not have these pathological backgrounds. Sex comparisons showed a male-to-female ratio of 10:1 for childhood-onset delinquency but a sex ratio of only 1.5:1 for adolescence-onset delinquency. Showing the same pattern as males, childhood-onset females had high-risk backgrounds but adolescent-onset females did not. These findings are consistent with core predictions from the taxonomic theory of life-course persistent and adolescence-limited antisocial behavior.
DropConnected neural network trained with diverse features for classifying heart sounds

A fully-connected, two-hidden-layer neural network trained by error backpropagation, and regularized with DropConnect is used to classify heart sounds as normal or abnormal. The heart sounds are segmented using an open-source algorithm based on a hidden semi-Markov model. Features are extracted from the heart sounds using a wavelet transform, mel-frequency cepstral coefficients, inter-beat properties, and signal complexity. Features are normalized by subtracting by their means and dividing by their standard deviations across the whole training set. Any feature which is not significantly different between normal and abnormal recordings in the training data is removed, as are highly-correlated features. The dimensionality of the features vector is reduced by projecting it onto its first 70 principal components. A 10 fold cross-validation study gives a mean classification score of 84.1% with a variance of 2.9%. The final score on the test data was 85.2%.
A New Similarity Measure to Understand Visitor Behavior in a Web Site

The behavior of visitors browsing in a web site offers a lot of information about their requirements and the way they use the respective site. Analyzing such behavior can provide the necessary information in order to improve the web site’s structure. The literature contains already several suggestions on how to characterize web site usage and to identify the respective visitor requirements based on clustering of visitor sessions. Here we propose to combine visitor behavior with the content of the respective web pages and the similarity between different page sequences in order to define a similarity measure between different visits. This similarity serves as input for clustering of visitor sessions. The application of our approach to a bank’s web site and its visitor sessions shows its potential for internet-based businesses. key words: web mining, browsing behavior, similarity measure, clustering.
Deep Learning Relevance: Creating Relevant Information (as Opposed to Retrieving it)

What if Information Retrieval (IR) systems did not just retrieve relevant information that is stored in their indices, but could also “understand” it and synthesise it into a single document? We present a preliminary study that makes a first step towards answering this question. Given a query, we train a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) on existing relevant information to that query. We then use the RNN to “deep learn” a single, synthetic, and we assume, relevant document for that query. We design a crowdsourcing experiment to assess how relevant the “deep learned” document is, compared to existing relevant documents. Users are shown a query and four wordclouds (of three existing relevant documents and our deep learned synthetic document). The synthetic document is ranked on average most relevant of all.
Design of IRNSS receiver antennae for smart city applications in India

In this research paper, a rectangular fractal antenna is designed which may be used for IRNSS based smart city applications in India. For tracking and positioning applications, the government of India has developed its own navigation system which is called Indian Regional Navigational Satellite System (IRNSS). To design an antenna for such an application is desirable. For the upcoming smart cities in India, the IRNSS will play a vital role in terms of traffic management, intelligent transportation, vehicle tracking and disaster management. A rectangular fractal antenna based on Sierpinski carpet antenna geometry for dual band resonant frequencies is simulated and tested. The antenna has operational frequencies at 2492.08 MHz (S-band) and 1176.45 MHz (L5-band) at return loss of -24.323 dB and -13.41dB respectively.
Deep Sequence-to-Sequence Neural Networks for Ionospheric Activity Map Prediction

The ability to predict the ionosphere activity is of interest for several applications such as satellite telecommunications or Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). A few studies have proposed models able to predict Total Electron Content (TEC) values of the ionosphere locally over measuring stations, but not worldwide for most of them. We propose a method using Deep Neural Networks (DNN) to predict a sequence of global TEC maps consecutive to an input sequence of past TEC maps, by combining Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with convolutional Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks. The numerical experiments show that the approach provides significant improvement over methods implemented for benchmarking and is competitive with state-of-the-art methods while providing global TEC predictions. The proposed architecture can be adapted to any sequence-to-sequence prediction problem.
Real-Time Mental Arithmetic Task Recognition From EEG Signals

Electroencephalography (EEG)-based monitoring the state of the user's brain functioning and giving her/him the visual/audio/tactile feedback is called neurofeedback technique, and it could allow the user to train the corresponding brain functions. It could provide an alternative way of treatment for some psychological disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), where concentration function deficit exists, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), or dyscalculia where the difficulty in learning and comprehending the arithmetic exists. In this paper, a novel method for multifractal analysis of EEG signals named generalized Higuchi fractal dimension spectrum (GHFDS) was proposed and applied in mental arithmetic task recognition from EEG signals. Other features such as power spectrum density (PSD), autoregressive model (AR), and statistical features were analyzed as well. The usage of the proposed fractal dimension spectrum of EEG signal in combination with other features improved the mental arithmetic task recognition accuracy in both multi-channel and one-channel subject-dependent algorithms up to 97.87% and 84.15% correspondingly. Based on the channel ranking, four channels were chosen which gave the accuracy up to 97.11%. Reliable real-time neurofeedback system could be implemented based on the algorithms proposed in this paper.

Towards the Development of Realistic Botnet Dataset in the Internet of Things for Network Forensic Analytics: Bot-IoT Dataset

The proliferation of IoT systems, has seen them targeted by malicious third parties. To address this, realistic protection and investigation countermeasures need to be developed. Such countermeasures include network intrusion detection and network forensic systems. For that purpose, a well-structured and representative dataset is paramount for training and validating the credibility of the systems. Although there are several network, in most cases, not much information is given about the Botnet scenarios that were used. This paper, proposes a new dataset, Bot-IoT, which incorporates legitimate and simulated IoT network traffic, along with various types of attacks. We also present a realistic testbed environment for addressing the existing dataset drawbacks of capturing complete network information, accurate labeling, as well as recent and complex attack diversity. Finally, we evaluate the reliability of the BoT-IoT dataset using different statistical and machine learning methods for forensics purposes compared with the existing datasets. This work provides the baseline for allowing botnet identificaiton across IoT-specific networks. The Bot-IoT dataset can be accessed at .
Angry, disgusted, or afraid? Studies on the malleability of emotion perception.

Current theories of emotion perception posit that basic facial expressions signal categorically discrete emotions or affective dimensions of valence and arousal. In both cases, the information is thought to be directly "read out" from the face in a way that is largely immune to context. In contrast, the three studies reported here demonstrated that identical facial configurations convey strikingly different emotions and dimensional values depending on the affective context in which they are embedded. This effect is modulated by the similarity between the target facial expression and the facial expression typically associated with the context. Moreover, by monitoring eye movements, we demonstrated that characteristic fixation patterns previously thought to be determined solely by the facial expression are systematically modulated by emotional context already at very early stages of visual processing, even by the first time the face is fixated. Our results indicate that the perception of basic facial expressions is not context invariant and can be categorically altered by context at early perceptual levels.
Study of Viola-Jones Real Time Face Detector

Face detection has been one of the most studied topics in computer vision literature. Given an arbitrary image, the goal of face detection is to determine whether or not there are any faces in the image and, if present, return the image location and extent of each face. While this appears to be a trivial task for human beings, it is a very challenging task for computers. The difficulty associated with face detection can be attributed to many variations in scale, location, view point, illumination, occlusions, etc. Although there have been hundreds of reported approaches to face detection, if one were asked to name a single face detection algorithm that has the most impact in recent decades, it will most likely be the Viola and Jones face detection, which is capable of processing images extremely rapidly and achieve high detection rates. This project is going to study and understand the Viola-Jones algorithm by implementing the whole detection framework and based on the implementation, conduct experiment to hopefully further improve the performance.
