Over the last few years, there has been an increasing number of studies about facial emotion recognition because of the importance and the impact that it has in the interaction of humans with computers. With the growing number of challenging datasets, the application of deep learning techniques have all become necessary. In this paper, we study the challenges of Emotion Recognition Datasets and we also try different parameters and architectures of the Conventional Neural Networks (CNNs) in order to detect the seven emotions in human faces, such as: anger, fear, disgust, contempt, happiness, sadness and surprise. We have chosen iCV MEFED (Multi-Emotion Facial Expression Dataset) as the main dataset for our study, which is relatively new, interesting and very challenging.
Short messages usage has been tremendously increased such as SMS, tweets and status updates. Due to its popularity and ease of use, many companies use it for advertisement purpose. Hackers also use SMS to defraud users and steal personal information. In this paper, the use of Graphs centrality metrics is proposed for spam SMS detection. The graph centrality measures: degree, closeness, and eccentricity are used for classification of SMS. Graphs for each class are created using labeled SMS and then unlabeled SMS is classified using the centrality scores of the token available in the unclassified SMS. Our results show that highest precision and recall is achieved by using degree centrality. Degree centrality achieved the highest precision i.e. 0.81 and recall i.e., 0.76 for spam messages.
Analyzing clustering results may lead to the privacy disclosure issue in big data mining. In this paper, we put forward a differential privacy-based protecting data preprocessing method for distance-based clustering. Firstly, the data distortion technique differential privacy is used to prevent the distances in distance-based clustering from disclosing the relationships. Differential privacy may affect the clustering results while protecting privacy. Then an adaptive privacy budget parameter adjustment mechanism is applied for keeping the balance between the privacy protection and the clustering results. By solving the maximum and minimum problems, the differential privacy budget parameter can be obtained for different clustering algorithms. Finally, we conduct extensive experiments to evaluate the performance of our proposed method. The results demonstrate that our method can provide privacy protection with precise clustering results.
Twitter provides a public streaming API that is strictly limited, making it difficult to simultaneously achieve good coverage and relevance when monitoring tweets for a specific topic of interest. In this paper, we address the tweet acquisition challenge to enhance monitoring of tweets based on the client/application needs in an online adaptive manner such that the quality and quantity of the results improves over time. We propose a Tweet Acquisition System (TAS), that iteratively selects phrases to track based on an explore-exploit strategy. Our experimental studies show that TAS significantly improves recall of relevant tweets and the performance improves when the topics are more specific.
Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack, exhausts the resources of server/service and makes it unavailable for legitimate users. With increasing use of online services and attacks on these services, the importance of Intrusion Detection System (IDS) for detection of DoS/DDoS attacks has also grown. Detection accuracy & CPU utilization of Data mining based IDS is directly proportional to the quality of training dataset used to train it. Various preprocessing methods like normalization, discretization, fuzzification are used by researchers to improve the quality of training dataset. This paper evaluates the effect of various data preprocessing methods on the detection accuracy of DoS/DDoS attack detection IDS and proves that numeric to binary preprocessing method performs better compared to other methods. Experimental results obtained using KDD 99 dataset are provided to support the efficiency of proposed combination.
