A review of associative classification mining
Associative classification mining is a promising approach in data mining that utilizes the
association rule discovery techniques to construct classification systems, also known as
associative classifiers. In the last few years, a number of associative classification algorithms
have been proposed, i.e. CPAR, CMAR, MCAR, MMAC and others. These algorithms
employ several different rule discovery, rule ranking, rule pruning, rule prediction and rule
evaluation methods. This paper focuses on surveying and comparing the state-of-the-art associative
classification techniques with regards to the above criteria. Finally, future directions in associative
classification, such as incremental learning and mining low-quality data sets, are also
highlighted in this paper
Pedestrian Attribute Recognition: A Survey
Recognizing pedestrian attributes is an important task in computer vision
community due to it plays an important role in video surveillance. Many
algorithms has been proposed to handle this task. The goal of this paper is to
review existing works using traditional methods or based on deep learning
networks. Firstly, we introduce the background of pedestrian attributes
recognition (PAR, for short), including the fundamental concepts of pedestrian
attributes and corresponding challenges. Secondly, we introduce existing
benchmarks, including popular datasets and evaluation criterion. Thirdly, we
analyse the concept of multi-task learning and multi-label learning, and also
explain the relations between these two learning algorithms and pedestrian
attribute recognition. We also review some popular network architectures which
have widely applied in the deep learning community. Fourthly, we analyse
popular solutions for this task, such as attributes group, part-based,
\emph{etc}. Fifthly, we shown some applications which takes pedestrian
attributes into consideration and achieve better performance. Finally, we
summarized this paper and give several possible research directions for
pedestrian attributes recognition. The project page of this paper can be found

Mining Brain Networks using Multiple Side Views for Neurological Disorder Identification
Mining discriminative subgraph patterns from graph data has attracted great
interest in recent years. It has a wide variety of applications in disease
diagnosis, neuroimaging, etc. Most research on subgraph mining focuses on the
graph representation alone. However, in many real-world applications, the side
information is available along with the graph data. For example, for
neurological disorder identification, in addition to the brain networks derived
from neuroimaging data, hundreds of clinical, immunologic, serologic and
cognitive measures may also be documented for each subject. These measures
compose multiple side views encoding a tremendous amount of supplemental
information for diagnostic purposes, yet are often ignored. In this paper, we
study the problem of discriminative subgraph selection using multiple side
views and propose a novel solution to find an optimal set of subgraph features
for graph classification by exploring a plurality of side views. We derive a
feature evaluation criterion, named gSide, to estimate the usefulness of
subgraph patterns based upon side views. Then we develop a branch-and-bound
algorithm, called gMSV, to efficiently search for optimal subgraph features by
integrating the subgraph mining process and the procedure of discriminative
feature selection. Empirical studies on graph classification tasks for
neurological disorders using brain networks demonstrate that subgraph patterns
selected by the multi-side-view guided subgraph selection approach can
effectively boost graph classification performances and are relevant to disease
diagnosis.Comment: in Proceedings of IEEE International Conference on Data Mining (ICDM)

Outlier Detection Techniques For Wireless Sensor Networks: A Survey
In the field of wireless sensor networks, measurements that
significantly deviate from the normal pattern of sensed data are
considered as outliers. The potential sources of outliers include
noise and errors, events, and malicious attacks on the network.
Traditional outlier detection techniques are not directly
applicable to wireless sensor networks due to the multivariate
nature of sensor data and specific requirements and limitations of
the wireless sensor networks. This survey provides a comprehensive
overview of existing outlier detection techniques specifically
developed for the wireless sensor networks. Additionally, it
presents a technique-based taxonomy and a decision tree to be used
as a guideline to select a technique suitable for the application
at hand based on characteristics such as data type, outlier type,
outlier degree
