Raman spectroscopy in open world learning settings using the Objectosphere approach

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Raman spectroscopy in combination with machine learning has significant promise for applications in clinical settings as a rapid, sensitive, and label-free identification method. These approaches perform well in classifying data that contains classes that occur during the training phase. However, in practice, there are always substances whose spectra have not yet been taken or are not yet known and when the input data are far from the training set and include new classes that were not seen at the training stage, a significant number of false positives are recorded which limits the clinical relevance of these algorithms. Here we show that these obstacles can be overcome by implementing recently introduced Entropic Open Set and Objectosphere loss functions. To demonstrate the efficiency of this approach, we compiled a database of Raman spectra of 40 chemical classes separating them into 20 biologically relevant classes comprised of amino acids, 10 irrelevant classes comprised of bio-related chemicals, and 10 classes that the Neural Network has not seen before, comprised of a variety of other chemicals. We show that this approach enables the network to effectively identify the unknown classes while preserving high accuracy on the known ones, dramatically reducing the number of false positives while preserving high accuracy on the known classes, which will allow this technique to bridge the gap between laboratory experiments and clinical applications.


Towards Robust Knowledge Graph Embedding via Multi-task Reinforcement Learning

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Nowadays, Knowledge graphs (KGs) have been playing a pivotal role in AI-related applications. Despite the large sizes, existing KGs are far from complete and comprehensive. In order to continuously enrich KGs, automatic knowledge construction and update mechanisms are usually utilized, which inevitably bring in plenty of noise. However, most existing knowledge graph embedding (KGE) methods assume that all the triple facts in KGs are correct, and project both entities and relations into a low-dimensional space without considering noise and knowledge conflicts. This will lead to low-quality and unreliable representations of KGs. To this end, in this paper, we propose a general multi-task reinforcement learning framework, which can greatly alleviate the noisy data problem. In our framework, we exploit reinforcement learning for choosing high-quality knowledge triples while filtering out the noisy ones. Also, in order to take full advantage of the correlations among semantically similar relations, the triple selection processes of similar relations are trained in a collective way with multi-task learning. Moreover, we extend popular KGE models TransE, DistMult, ConvE and RotatE with the proposed framework. Finally, the experimental validation shows that our approach is able to enhance existing KGE models and can provide more robust representations of KGs in noisy scenarios.

Detecting Fake Points of Interest from Location Data

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The pervasiveness of GPS-enabled mobile devices and the widespread use of location-based services have resulted in the generation of massive amounts of geo-tagged data. In recent times, the data analysis now has access to more sources, including reviews, news, and images, which also raises questions about the reliability of Point-of-Interest (POI) data sources. While previous research attempted to detect fake POI data through various security mechanisms, the current work attempts to capture the fake POI data in a much simpler way. The proposed work is focused on supervised learning methods and their capability to find hidden patterns in location-based data. The ground truth labels are obtained through real-world data, and the fake data is generated using an API, so we get a dataset with both the real and fake labels on the location data. The objective is to predict the truth about a POI using the Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) method. In the proposed work, MLP based on data classification technique is used to classify location data accurately. The proposed method is compared with traditional classification and robust and recent deep neural methods. The results show that the proposed method is better than the baseline methods.


Social Fraud Detection Review: Methods, Challenges and Analysis

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Social reviews have dominated the web and become a plausible source of product information. People and businesses use such information for decision-making. Businesses also make use of social information to spread fake information using a single user, groups of users, or a bot trained to generate fraudulent content. Many studies proposed approaches based on user behaviors and review text to address the challenges of fraud detection. To provide an exhaustive literature review, social fraud detection is reviewed using a framework that considers three key components: the review itself, the user who carries out the review, and the item being reviewed. As features are extracted for the component representation, a feature-wise review is provided based on behavioral, text-based features and their combination. With this framework, a comprehensive overview of approaches is presented including supervised, semi-supervised, and unsupervised learning. The supervised approaches for fraud detection are introduced and categorized into two sub-categories; classical, and deep learning. The lack of labeled datasets is explained and potential solutions are suggested. To help new researchers in the area develop a better understanding, a topic analysis and an overview of future directions is provided in each step of the proposed systematic framework.


Machine Learning Models Disclosure from Trusted Research Environments (TRE), Challenges and Opportunities

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Trusted Research environments (TRE)s are safe and secure environments in which researchers can access sensitive data. With the growth and diversity of medical data such as Electronic Health Records (EHR), Medical Imaging and Genomic data, there is an increase in the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in general and the subfield of Machine Learning (ML) in particular in the healthcare domain. This generates the desire to disclose new types of outputs from TREs, such as trained machine learning models. Although specific guidelines and policies exists for statistical disclosure controls in TREs, they do not satisfactorily cover these new types of output request. In this paper, we define some of the challenges around the application and disclosure of machine learning for healthcare within TREs. We describe various vulnerabilities the introduction of AI brings to TREs. We also provide an introduction to the different types and levels of risks associated with the disclosure of trained ML models. We finally describe the new research opportunities in developing and adapting policies and tools for safely disclosing machine learning outputs from TREs.

The Internet of Federated Things (IoFT): A Vision for the Future and In-depth Survey of Data-driven Approaches for Federated Learning

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

The Internet of Things (IoT) is on the verge of a major paradigm shift. In the IoT system of the future, IoFT, the cloud will be substituted by the crowd where model training is brought to the edge, allowing IoT devices to collaboratively extract knowledge and build smart analytics/models while keeping their personal data stored locally. This paradigm shift was set into motion by the tremendous increase in computational power on IoT devices and the recent advances in decentralized and privacy-preserving model training, coined as federated learning (FL). This article provides a vision for IoFT and a systematic overview of current efforts towards realizing this vision. Specifically, we first introduce the defining characteristics of IoFT and discuss FL data-driven approaches, opportunities, and challenges that allow decentralized inference within three dimensions: (i) a global model that maximizes utility across all IoT devices, (ii) a personalized model that borrows strengths across all devices yet retains its own model, (iii) a meta-learning model that quickly adapts to new devices or learning tasks. We end by describing the vision and challenges of IoFT in reshaping different industries through the lens of domain experts. Those industries include manufacturing, transportation, energy, healthcare, quality & reliability, business, and computing.


Multi-Label Classification Neural Networks with Hard Logical Constraints

Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research

Multi-label classification (MC) is a standard machine learning problem in which a data point can be associated with a set of classes. A more challenging scenario is given by hierarchical multi-label classification (HMC) problems, in which every prediction must satisfy a given set of hard constraints expressing subclass relationships between classes. In this article, we propose C-HMCNN(h), a novel approach for solving HMC problems, which, given a network h for the underlying MC problem, exploits the hierarchy information in order to produce predictions coherent with the constraints and to improve performance. Furthermore, we extend the logic used to express HMC constraints in order to be able to specify more complex relations among the classes and propose a new model CCN(h), which extends C-HMCNN(h) and is again able to satisfy and exploit the constraints to improve performance. We conduct an extensive experimental analysis showing the superior performance of both C-HMCNN(h) and CCN(h) when compared to state-of-the-art models in both the HMC and the general MC setting with hard logical constraints.


Creating A Coefficient of Change in the Built Environment After a Natural Disaster

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

This study proposes a novel method to assess damages in the built environment using a deep learning workflow to quantify it. Thanks to an automated crawler, aerial images from before and after a natural disaster of 50 epicenters worldwide were obtained from Google Earth, generating a 10,000 aerial image database with a spatial resolution of 2 m per pixel. The study utilizes the algorithm Seg-Net to perform semantic segmentation of the built environment from the satellite images in both instances (prior and post-natural disasters). For image segmentation, Seg-Net is one of the most popular and general CNN architectures. The Seg-Net algorithm used reached an accuracy of 92% in the segmentation. After the segmentation, we compared the disparity between both cases represented as a percentage of change. Such coefficient of change represents the damage numerically an urban environment had to quantify the overall damage in the built environment. Such an index can give the government an estimate of the number of affected households and perhaps the extent of housing damage.
