In this paper,a semi-supervised learning based probabilistic latent semantic analysis( PLSA) model for automatic image annotation is presenred. Since it's often hard to obtain or create labeled images in large quantities while unlabeled ones are easier to collect,a transductive support vector machine( TSVM) is exploited to enhance the quality of the training image data. Then,different image features with different magnitudes will result in different performance for automatic image annotation. To this end,a Gaussian normalization method is utilized to normalize different features extracted from effective image regions segmented by the normalized cuts algorithm so as to reserve the intrinsic content of images as complete as possible. Finally,a PLSA model with asymmetric modalities is constructed based on the expectation maximization( EM) algorithm to predict a candidate set of annotations with confidence scores. Extensive experiments on the general-purpose Corel5k dataset demonstrate that the proposed model can significantly improve performance of traditional PLSA for the task of automatic image annotation.展开更多

文摘Semi-supervised new intent discovery is a significant research focus in natural language understanding.To address the limitations of current semi-supervised training data and the underutilization of implicit information,a Semi-supervised New Intent Discovery for Elastic Neighborhood Syntactic Elimination and Fusion model(SNID-ENSEF)is proposed.Syntactic elimination contrast learning leverages verb-dominant syntactic features,systematically replacing specific words to enhance data diversity.The radius of the positive sample neighborhood is elastically adjusted to eliminate invalid samples and improve training efficiency.A neighborhood sample fusion strategy,based on sample distribution patterns,dynamically adjusts neighborhood size and fuses sample vectors to reduce noise and improve implicit information utilization and discovery accuracy.Experimental results show that SNID-ENSEF achieves average improvements of 0.88%,1.27%,and 1.30%in Normalized Mutual Information(NMI),Accuracy(ACC),and Adjusted Rand Index(ARI),respectively,outperforming PTJN,DPN,MTP-CLNN,and DWG models on the Banking77,StackOverflow,and Clinc150 datasets.The code is available at https://github.com/qsdesz/SNID-ENSEF,accessed on 16 January 2025.

文摘Deep Learning(DL)is such a powerful tool that we have seen tremendous success in areas such as Computer Vision,Speech Recognition,and Natural Language Processing.Since Automated Modulation Classification(AMC)is an important part in Cognitive Radio Networks,we try to explore its potential in solving signal modulation recognition problem.It cannot be overlooked that DL model is a complex model,thus making them prone to over-fitting.DL model requires many training data to combat with over-fitting,but adding high quality labels to training data manually is not always cheap and accessible,especially in real-time system,which may counter unprecedented data in dataset.Semi-supervised Learning is a way to exploit unlabeled data effectively to reduce over-fitting in DL.In this paper,we extend Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs)to the semi-supervised learning will show it is a method can be used to create a more dataefficient classifier.

文摘Direct online measurement on product quality of industrial processes is difficult to be realized,which leads to a large number of unlabeled samples in modeling data.Therefore,it needs to employ semi-supervised learning(SSL)method to establish the soft sensor model of product quality.Considering the slow time-varying characteristic of industrial processes,the model parameters should be updated smoothly.According to this characteristic,this paper proposes an online adaptive semi-supervised learning algorithm based on random vector functional link network(RVFLN),denoted as OAS-RVFLN.By introducing a L2-fusion term that can be seen a weight deviation constraint,the proposed algorithm unifies the offline and online learning,and achieves smoothness of model parameter update.Empirical evaluations both on benchmark testing functions and datasets reveal that the proposed OAS-RVFLN can outperform the conventional methods in learning speed and accuracy.Finally,the OAS-RVFLN is applied to the coal dense medium separation process in coal industry to estimate the ash content of coal product,which further verifies its effectiveness and potential of industrial application.
文摘The majority of big data analytics applied to transportation datasets suffer from being too domain-specific,that is,they draw conclusions for a dataset based on analytics on the same dataset.This makes models trained from one domain(e.g.taxi data)applies badly to a different domain(e.g.Uber data).To achieve accurate analyses on a new domain,substantial amounts of data must be available,which limits practical applications.To remedy this,we propose to use semi-supervised and active learning of big data to accomplish the domain adaptation task:Selectively choosing a small amount of datapoints from a new domain while achieving comparable performances to using all the datapoints.We choose the New York City(NYC)transportation data of taxi and Uber as our dataset,simulating different domains with 90%as the source data domain for training and the remaining 10%as the target data domain for evaluation.We propose semi-supervised and active learning strategies and apply it to the source domain for selecting datapoints.Experimental results show that our adaptation achieves a comparable performance of using all datapoints while using only a fraction of them,substantially reducing the amount of data required.Our approach has two major advantages:It can make accurate analytics and predictions when big datasets are not available,and even if big datasets are available,our approach chooses the most informative datapoints out of the dataset,making the process much more efficient without having to process huge amounts of data.

文摘It is crucial to maintain the safe and stable operation of distribution transformers,which constitute a key part of power systems.In the event of transformer failure,the fault type must be diagnosed in a timely and accurate manner.To this end,a transformer fault diagnosis method based on infrared image processing and semi-supervised learning is proposed herein.First,we perform feature extraction on the collected infrared-image data to extract temperature,texture,and shape features as the model reference vectors.Then,a generative adversarial network(GAN)is constructed to generate synthetic samples for the minority subset of labelled samples.The proposed method can learn information from unlabeled sample data,unlike conventional supervised learning methods.Subsequently,a semi-supervised graph model is trained on the entire dataset,i.e.,both labeled and unlabeled data.Finally,we test the proposed model on an actual dataset collected from a Chinese electricity provider.The experimental results show that the use of feature extraction,sample generation,and semi-supervised learning model can improve the accuracy of transformer fault classification.This verifies the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘Intelligent seismic facies identification based on deep learning can alleviate the time-consuming and labor-intensive problem of manual interpretation,which has been widely applied.Supervised learning can realize facies identification with high efficiency and accuracy;however,it depends on the usage of a large amount of well-labeled data.To solve this issue,we propose herein an incremental semi-supervised method for intelligent facies identification.Our method considers the continuity of the lateral variation of strata and uses cosine similarity to quantify the similarity of the seismic data feature domain.The maximum-diff erence sample in the neighborhood of the currently used training data is then found to reasonably expand the training sets.This process continuously increases the amount of training data and learns its distribution.We integrate old knowledge while absorbing new ones to realize incremental semi-supervised learning and achieve the purpose of evolving the network models.In this work,accuracy and confusion matrix are employed to jointly control the predicted results of the model from both overall and partial aspects.The obtained values are then applied to a three-dimensional(3D)real dataset and used to quantitatively evaluate the results.Using unlabeled data,our proposed method acquires more accurate and stable testing results compared to conventional supervised learning algorithms that only use well-labeled data.A considerable improvement for small-sample categories is also observed.Using less than 1%of the training data,the proposed method can achieve an average accuracy of over 95%on the 3D dataset.In contrast,the conventional supervised learning algorithm achieved only approximately 85%.

文摘Intrusion detection involves identifying unauthorized network activity and recognizing whether the data constitute an abnormal network transmission.Recent research has focused on using semi-supervised learning mechanisms to identify abnormal network traffic to deal with labeled and unlabeled data in the industry.However,real-time training and classifying network traffic pose challenges,as they can lead to the degradation of the overall dataset and difficulties preventing attacks.Additionally,existing semi-supervised learning research might need to analyze the experimental results comprehensively.This paper proposes XA-GANomaly,a novel technique for explainable adaptive semi-supervised learning using GANomaly,an image anomalous detection model that dynamically trains small subsets to these issues.First,this research introduces a deep neural network(DNN)-based GANomaly for semi-supervised learning.Second,this paper presents the proposed adaptive algorithm for the DNN-based GANomaly,which is validated with four subsets of the adaptive dataset.Finally,this study demonstrates a monitoring system that incorporates three explainable techniques—Shapley additive explanations,reconstruction error visualization,and t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding—to respond effectively to attacks on traffic data at each feature engineering stage,semi-supervised learning,and adaptive learning.Compared to other single-class classification techniques,the proposed DNN-based GANomaly achieves higher scores for Network Security Laboratory-Knowledge Discovery in Databases and UNSW-NB15 datasets at 13%and 8%of F1 scores and 4.17%and 11.51%for accuracy,respectively.Furthermore,experiments of the proposed adaptive learning reveal mostly improved results over the initial values.An analysis and monitoring system based on the combination of the three explainable methodologies is also described.Thus,the proposed method has the potential advantages to be applied in practical industry,and future research will explore handling unbalanced real-time datasets in various scenarios.

文摘In the upcoming large-scale Internet of Things(Io T),it is increasingly challenging to defend against malicious traffic,due to the heterogeneity of Io T devices and the diversity of Io T communication protocols.In this paper,we propose a semi-supervised learning-based approach to detect malicious traffic at the access side.It overcomes the resource-bottleneck problem of traditional malicious traffic defenders which are deployed at the victim side,and also is free of labeled traffic data in model training.Specifically,we design a coarse-grained behavior model of Io T devices by self-supervised learning with unlabeled traffic data.Then,we fine-tune this model to improve its accuracy in malicious traffic detection by adopting a transfer learning method using a small amount of labeled data.Experimental results show that our method can achieve the accuracy of 99.52%and the F1-score of 99.52%with only 1%of the labeled training data based on the CICDDoS2019 dataset.Moreover,our method outperforms the stateof-the-art supervised learning-based methods in terms of accuracy,precision,recall and F1-score with 1%of the training data.

文摘Artificial intelligent based dialog systems are getting attention from both business and academic communities.The key parts for such intelligent chatbot systems are domain classification,intent detection,and named entity recognition.Various supervised,unsupervised,and hybrid approaches are used to detect each field.Such intelligent systems,also called natural language understanding systems analyze user requests in sequential order:domain classification,intent,and entity recognition based on the semantic rules of the classified domain.This sequential approach propagates the downstream error;i.e.,if the domain classification model fails to classify the domain,intent and entity recognition fail.Furthermore,training such intelligent system necessitates a large number of user-annotated datasets for each domain.This study proposes a single joint predictive deep neural network framework based on long short-term memory using only a small user-annotated dataset to address these issues.It investigates value added by incorporating unlabeled data from user chatting logs into multi-domain spoken language understanding systems.Systematic experimental analysis of the proposed joint frameworks,along with the semi-supervised multi-domain model,using open-source annotated and unannotated utterances shows robust improvement in the predictive performance of the proposed multi-domain intelligent chatbot over a base joint model and joint model based on adversarial learning.

文摘For the classification problem in practice,one of the challenging issues is to obtain enough labeled data for training.Moreover,even if such labeled data has been sufficiently accumulated,most datasets often exhibit long-tailed distribution with heavy class imbalance,which results in a biased model towards a majority class.To alleviate such class imbalance,semisupervised learning methods using additional unlabeled data have been considered.However,as a matter of course,the accuracy is much lower than that from supervised learning.In this study,under the assumption that additional unlabeled data is available,we propose the iterative semi-supervised learning algorithms,which iteratively correct the labeling of the extra unlabeled data based on softmax probabilities.The results show that the proposed algorithms provide the accuracy as high as that from the supervised learning.To validate the proposed algorithms,we tested on the two scenarios:with the balanced unlabeled dataset and with the imbalanced unlabeled dataset.Under both scenarios,our proposed semi-supervised learning algorithms provided higher accuracy than previous state-of-the-arts.Code is available at https://github.com/HeewonChung92/iterative-semi-learning.

文摘Radio frequency fingerprinting(RFF)is a remarkable lightweight authentication scheme to support rapid and scalable identification in the internet of things(IoT)systems.Deep learning(DL)is a critical enabler of RFF identification by leveraging the hardware-level features.However,traditional supervised learning methods require huge labeled training samples.Therefore,how to establish a highperformance supervised learning model with few labels under practical application is still challenging.To address this issue,we in this paper propose a novel RFF semi-supervised learning(RFFSSL)model which can obtain a better performance with few meta labels.Specifically,the proposed RFFSSL model is constituted by a teacher-student network,in which the student network learns from the pseudo label predicted by the teacher.Then,the output of the student model will be exploited to improve the performance of teacher among the labeled data.Furthermore,a comprehensive evaluation on the accuracy is conducted.We derive about 50 GB real long-term evolution(LTE)mobile phone’s raw signal datasets,which is used to evaluate various models.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed RFFSSL scheme can achieve up to 97%experimental testing accuracy over a noisy environment only with 10%labeled samples when training samples equal to 2700.

文摘In recent years,multimedia annotation problem has been attracting significant research attention in multimedia and computer vision areas,especially for automatic image annotation,whose purpose is to provide an efficient and effective searching environment for users to query their images more easily. In this paper,a semi-supervised learning based probabilistic latent semantic analysis( PLSA) model for automatic image annotation is presenred. Since it's often hard to obtain or create labeled images in large quantities while unlabeled ones are easier to collect,a transductive support vector machine( TSVM) is exploited to enhance the quality of the training image data. Then,different image features with different magnitudes will result in different performance for automatic image annotation. To this end,a Gaussian normalization method is utilized to normalize different features extracted from effective image regions segmented by the normalized cuts algorithm so as to reserve the intrinsic content of images as complete as possible. Finally,a PLSA model with asymmetric modalities is constructed based on the expectation maximization( EM) algorithm to predict a candidate set of annotations with confidence scores. Extensive experiments on the general-purpose Corel5k dataset demonstrate that the proposed model can significantly improve performance of traditional PLSA for the task of automatic image annotation.
