Word-Entity Duet Representations for Document Ranking
This paper presents a word-entity duet framework for utilizing knowledge
bases in ad-hoc retrieval. In this work, the query and documents are modeled by
word-based representations and entity-based representations. Ranking features
are generated by the interactions between the two representations,
incorporating information from the word space, the entity space, and the
cross-space connections through the knowledge graph. To handle the
uncertainties from the automatically constructed entity representations, an
attention-based ranking model AttR-Duet is developed. With back-propagation
from ranking labels, the model learns simultaneously how to demote noisy
entities and how to rank documents with the word-entity duet. Evaluation
results on TREC Web Track ad-hoc task demonstrate that all of the four-way
interactions in the duet are useful, the attention mechanism successfully
steers the model away from noisy entities, and together they significantly
outperform both word-based and entity-based learning to rank systems
Energy efficient privacy preserved data gathering in wireless sensor networks having multiple sinks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) generally have a many-to-one structure so that event information flows from sensors to a unique sink. In recent WSN applications, many-tomany structures are evolved due to need for conveying collected event information to multiple sinks at the same time. This study proposes an anonymity method bases on k-anonymity for preventing record disclosure of collected event information in WSNs. Proposed method takes the anonymity requirements of multiple sinks into consideration by providing different levels of privacy for each destination sink. Attributes, which may identify of an event owner, are generalized or encrypted in order to
meet the different anonymity requirements of sinks. Privacy guaranteed event information can be multicasted to all sinks instead of sending to each sink one by one. Since minimization of energy consumption is an important design criteria for WSNs, our method enables us to multicast the same event information
to multiple sinks and reduce energy consumption
