The Case for Learned Index Structures
Indexes are models: a B-Tree-Index can be seen as a model to map a key to the
position of a record within a sorted array, a Hash-Index as a model to map a
key to a position of a record within an unsorted array, and a BitMap-Index as a
model to indicate if a data record exists or not. In this exploratory research
paper, we start from this premise and posit that all existing index structures
can be replaced with other types of models, including deep-learning models,
which we term learned indexes. The key idea is that a model can learn the sort
order or structure of lookup keys and use this signal to effectively predict
the position or existence of records. We theoretically analyze under which
conditions learned indexes outperform traditional index structures and describe
the main challenges in designing learned index structures. Our initial results
show, that by using neural nets we are able to outperform cache-optimized
B-Trees by up to 70% in speed while saving an order-of-magnitude in memory over
several real-world data sets. More importantly though, we believe that the idea
of replacing core components of a data management system through learned models
has far reaching implications for future systems designs and that this work
just provides a glimpse of what might be possible
A novel hybrid approach of SVM combined with NLP and probabilistic neural network for email phishing
Phishing attacks are one of the slanting cyber-attacks that apply socially engineered messages that are imparted to individuals from expert hackers going for tricking clients to uncover their delicate data, the most mainstream correspondence channel to those messages is through clients' emails. Phishing has turned into a generous danger for web clients and a noteworthy reason for money related misfortunes. Therefore, different arrangements have been created to handle this issue. Deceitful emails, also called phishing emails, utilize a scope of impact strategies to convince people to react, for example, promising a fiscal reward or summoning a feeling of criticalness. Regardless of far reaching alerts and intends to instruct clients to distinguish phishing sends, these are as yet a pervasive practice and a worthwhile business. The creators accept that influence, as a style of human correspondence intended to impact others, has a focal job in fruitful advanced tricks. Cyber criminals have ceaselessly propelling their techniques for assault. The current strategies to recognize the presence of such malevolent projects and to keep them from executing are static, dynamic and hybrid analysis. In this work we are proposing a hybrid methodology for phishing detection incorporating feature extraction and classification of the mails using SVM. At last, alongside the chose features, the PNN characterizes the spam mails from the genuine mails with more exactness and accuracy
A Bayesian Model for Plan Recognition in RTS Games applied to StarCraft
The task of keyhole (unobtrusive) plan recognition is central to adaptive
game AI. "Tech trees" or "build trees" are the core of real-time strategy (RTS)
game strategic (long term) planning. This paper presents a generic and simple
Bayesian model for RTS build tree prediction from noisy observations, which
parameters are learned from replays (game logs). This unsupervised machine
learning approach involves minimal work for the game developers as it leverage
players' data (com- mon in RTS). We applied it to StarCraft1 and showed that it
yields high quality and robust predictions, that can feed an adaptive AI.Comment: 7 pages; Artificial Intelligence and Interactive Digital

Categorical Missing Data Imputation Using Fuzzy Neural Networks with Numerical and Categorical Inputs
There are many situations where input feature vectors are incomplete and methods to tackle the problem have been studied for a long time. A commonly used procedure is to replace each missing value with an imputation. This paper presents a method to perform categorical missing data imputation from numerical and categorical variables. The imputations are based on Simpson’s fuzzy min-max neural networks where the input variables for learning and classification are just numerical. The proposed method extends the input to categorical variables by introducing new fuzzy sets, a new operation and a new architecture. The procedure is tested and compared with others using opinion poll data
