User behavior prediction via heterogeneous information preserving network embedding
© 2018 Elsevier B.V. User behavior prediction with low-dimensional vectors generated by user network embedding models has been verified to be efficient and reliable in real applications. However, most user network embedding models utilize homogeneous properties to represent users, such as attributes or user network structure. Though some works try to combine two kinds of properties, the existing works are still not enough to leverage the rich semantics of users. In this paper, we propose a novel heterogeneous information preserving user network embedding model, which is named HINE, for user behavior classification in user network. HINE applies attributes, user network connection, user network structure, and user behavior label information for user representation in user network embedding. The embedded vectors considering these multi-type properties of users contribute to better user behavior classification performances. Experiments verified the superior performances of the proposed approach on real-world complex user network dataset
Latent Semantic Learning with Structured Sparse Representation for Human Action Recognition
This paper proposes a novel latent semantic learning method for extracting
high-level features (i.e. latent semantics) from a large vocabulary of abundant
mid-level features (i.e. visual keywords) with structured sparse
representation, which can help to bridge the semantic gap in the challenging
task of human action recognition. To discover the manifold structure of
midlevel features, we develop a spectral embedding approach to latent semantic
learning based on L1-graph, without the need to tune any parameter for graph
construction as a key step of manifold learning. More importantly, we construct
the L1-graph with structured sparse representation, which can be obtained by
structured sparse coding with its structured sparsity ensured by novel L1-norm
hypergraph regularization over mid-level features. In the new embedding space,
we learn latent semantics automatically from abundant mid-level features
through spectral clustering. The learnt latent semantics can be readily used
for human action recognition with SVM by defining a histogram intersection
kernel. Different from the traditional latent semantic analysis based on topic
models, our latent semantic learning method can explore the manifold structure
of mid-level features in both L1-graph construction and spectral embedding,
which results in compact but discriminative high-level features. The
experimental results on the commonly used KTH action dataset and unconstrained
YouTube action dataset show the superior performance of our method.Comment: The short version of this paper appears in ICCV 201
Generic Trace Semantics via Coinduction
Trace semantics has been defined for various kinds of state-based systems,
notably with different forms of branching such as non-determinism vs.
probability. In this paper we claim to identify one underlying mathematical
structure behind these "trace semantics," namely coinduction in a Kleisli
category. This claim is based on our technical result that, under a suitably
order-enriched setting, a final coalgebra in a Kleisli category is given by an
initial algebra in the category Sets. Formerly the theory of coalgebras has
been employed mostly in Sets where coinduction yields a finer process semantics
of bisimilarity. Therefore this paper extends the application field of
coalgebras, providing a new instance of the principle "process semantics via
coinduction."Comment: To appear in Logical Methods in Computer Science. 36 page
edge2vec: Representation learning using edge semantics for biomedical knowledge discovery
Representation learning provides new and powerful graph analytical approaches
and tools for the highly valued data science challenge of mining knowledge
graphs. Since previous graph analytical methods have mostly focused on
homogeneous graphs, an important current challenge is extending this
methodology for richly heterogeneous graphs and knowledge domains. The
biomedical sciences are such a domain, reflecting the complexity of biology,
with entities such as genes, proteins, drugs, diseases, and phenotypes, and
relationships such as gene co-expression, biochemical regulation, and
biomolecular inhibition or activation. Therefore, the semantics of edges and
nodes are critical for representation learning and knowledge discovery in real
world biomedical problems. In this paper, we propose the edge2vec model, which
represents graphs considering edge semantics. An edge-type transition matrix is
trained by an Expectation-Maximization approach, and a stochastic gradient
descent model is employed to learn node embedding on a heterogeneous graph via
the trained transition matrix. edge2vec is validated on three biomedical domain
tasks: biomedical entity classification, compound-gene bioactivity prediction,
and biomedical information retrieval. Results show that by considering
edge-types into node embedding learning in heterogeneous graphs,
\textbf{edge2vec}\ significantly outperforms state-of-the-art models on all
three tasks. We propose this method for its added value relative to existing
graph analytical methodology, and in the real world context of biomedical
knowledge discovery applicability.Comment: 10 page
