NOUS: Construction and Querying of Dynamic Knowledge Graphs
The ability to construct domain specific knowledge graphs (KG) and perform
question-answering or hypothesis generation is a transformative capability.
Despite their value, automated construction of knowledge graphs remains an
expensive technical challenge that is beyond the reach for most enterprises and
academic institutions. We propose an end-to-end framework for developing custom
knowledge graph driven analytics for arbitrary application domains. The
uniqueness of our system lies A) in its combination of curated KGs along with
knowledge extracted from unstructured text, B) support for advanced trending
and explanatory questions on a dynamic KG, and C) the ability to answer queries
where the answer is embedded across multiple data sources.Comment: Codebase: https://github.com/streaming-graphs/NOU
An Incremental Construction of Deep Neuro Fuzzy System for Continual Learning of Non-stationary Data Streams
Existing FNNs are mostly developed under a shallow network configuration
having lower generalization power than those of deep structures. This paper
proposes a novel self-organizing deep FNN, namely DEVFNN. Fuzzy rules can be
automatically extracted from data streams or removed if they play limited role
during their lifespan. The structure of the network can be deepened on demand
by stacking additional layers using a drift detection method which not only
detects the covariate drift, variations of input space, but also accurately
identifies the real drift, dynamic changes of both feature space and target
space. DEVFNN is developed under the stacked generalization principle via the
feature augmentation concept where a recently developed algorithm, namely
gClass, drives the hidden layer. It is equipped by an automatic feature
selection method which controls activation and deactivation of input attributes
to induce varying subsets of input features. A deep network simplification
procedure is put forward using the concept of hidden layer merging to prevent
uncontrollable growth of dimensionality of input space due to the nature of
feature augmentation approach in building a deep network structure. DEVFNN
works in the sample-wise fashion and is compatible for data stream
applications. The efficacy of DEVFNN has been thoroughly evaluated using seven
datasets with non-stationary properties under the prequential test-then-train
protocol. It has been compared with four popular continual learning algorithms
and its shallow counterpart where DEVFNN demonstrates improvement of
classification accuracy. Moreover, it is also shown that the concept drift
detection method is an effective tool to control the depth of network structure
while the hidden layer merging scenario is capable of simplifying the network
complexity of a deep network with negligible compromise of generalization
performance.Comment: This paper has been published in IEEE Transactions on Fuzzy System
Attribute oriented induction with star schema
This paper will propose a novel star schema attribute induction as a new
attribute induction paradigm and as improving from current attribute oriented
induction. A novel star schema attribute induction will be examined with
current attribute oriented induction based on characteristic rule and using non
rule based concept hierarchy by implementing both of approaches. In novel star
schema attribute induction some improvements have been implemented like
elimination threshold number as maximum tuples control for generalization
result, there is no ANY as the most general concept, replacement the role
concept hierarchy with concept tree, simplification for the generalization
strategy steps and elimination attribute oriented induction algorithm. Novel
star schema attribute induction is more powerful than the current attribute
oriented induction since can produce small number final generalization tuples
and there is no ANY in the results.Comment: 23 Pages, IJDM
A methodology for the generation of efficient error detection mechanisms
A dependable software system must contain error detection mechanisms and error recovery mechanisms. Software components for the detection of errors are typically designed based on a system specification or the experience of software engineers, with their efficiency typically being measured using fault injection and metrics such as coverage and latency. In this paper, we introduce a methodology for the design of highly efficient error detection mechanisms. The proposed methodology combines fault injection analysis and data mining techniques in order to generate predicates for efficient error detection mechanisms. The results presented demonstrate the viability of the methodology as an approach for the development of efficient error detection mechanisms, as the predicates generated yield a true positive rate of almost 100% and a false positive rate very close to 0% for the detection of failure-inducing states. The main advantage of the proposed methodology over current state-of-the-art approaches is that efficient detectors are obtained by design, rather than by using specification-based detector design or the experience of software engineers
