New method for private learning with public features improves convergence rates.
Study shows how missing data from certain groups can unfairly bias risk models.
The paper proposes to analyze a data set of Finnish ranks of academic publication channels with Extreme Learning Machine (ELM). The purpose is to introduce and test recently proposed ELM-based mislabel detection approach with a rich set of features characterizing a publication channel. We will compare the architecture,…
The aim of the present article is to treat the Greek public debt issue strictly as a curve fitting problem. Thus, based on Eurostat data and using the Mathematica technical computing software, an exponential function that best fits the data is determined modelling how the Greek public debt expands with time. Exploring …

Improved image generation with private data using perceptual features.
Private learning needs more data or better features.
Representation learning, especially which by using deep learning, has been widely applied in classification. However, how to use limited size of labeled data to achieve good classification performance with deep neural network, and how can the learned features further improve classification remain indefinite. In this pa…
Study predicts coastal water quality using machine learning, identifying salinity as key factor.
Author name disambiguation in bibliographic databases is the problem of grouping together scientific publications written by the same person, accounting for potential homonyms and/or synonyms. Among solutions to this problem, digital libraries are increasingly offering tools for authors to manually curate their publica…
Study shows diverse data types improve SARS-COV-2 case surge predictions.
Study detects unlawful insider trading using SHAP and CF, identifying key features.
Proposes a copula-based filter for diabetes risk prediction.
Before any publication, data analysis of high-energy physics experiments must be validated. This validation is granted only if a perfect understanding of the data and the analysis process is demonstrated. Therefore, physicists prefer using transparent machine learning algorithms whose performances highly rely on the su…
Satellite images predict U.S. county mortality rates.
MLS improves feature selection for imbalanced data.
PriRec preserves privacy in POI recommendation by keeping data and models on users' devices.
Recently, due to the booming influence of online social networks, detecting fake news is drawing significant attention from both academic communities and general public. In this paper, we consider the existence of confounding variables in the features of fake news and use Propensity Score Matching (PSM) to select gener…
Automatic summarisation is a popular approach to reduce a document to its main arguments. Recent research in the area has focused on neural approaches to summarisation, which can be very data-hungry. However, few large datasets exist and none for the traditionally popular domain of scientific publications, which opens …
Dataset analyzes tweets' impact on stock returns.
In this work, we utilize T1-weighted MR images and StackNet to predict fluid intelligence in adolescents. Our framework includes feature extraction, feature normalization, feature denoising, feature selection, training a StackNet, and predicting fluid intelligence. The extracted feature is the distribution of different…
DeepUnHide uses deep learning to reveal hidden demographic features in recommender systems.
A new framework for optimizing interventions with limited data.
Study on InstaHide's security, linking to phase retrieval problem.
In recent years, many publications showed that convolutional neural network based features can have a superior performance to engineered features. However, not much effort was taken so far to extract local features efficiently for a whole image. In this paper, we present an approach to compute patch-based local feature…
In this work a new way to calculate the multivariate joint entropy is presented. This measure is the basis for a fast information-theoretic based evaluation of gene relevance in a Microarray Gene Expression data context. Its low complexity is based on the reuse of previous computations to calculate current feature rele…
Motivation: Biomarker discovery from high-dimensional data is a crucial problem with enormous applications in biology and medicine. It is also extremely challenging from a statistical viewpoint, but surprisingly few studies have investigated the relative strengths and weaknesses of the plethora of existing feature sele…
The volume of stroke lesion is the gold standard for predicting the clinical outcome of stroke patients. However, the presence of stroke lesion may cause neural disruptions to other brain regions, and these potentially damaged regions may affect the clinical outcome of stroke patients. In this paper, we introduce the t…
Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) is a significant public health problem. The most troubling symptoms after mTBI are cognitive complaints. Studies show measurable differences between patients with mTBI and healthy controls with respect to tissue microstructure using diffusion MRI. However, it remains unclear which dif…
We consider learning problems where the training set consists of two types of examples: private and public. The goal is to design a learning algorithm that satisfies differential privacy only with respect to the private examples. This setting interpolates between private learning (where all examples are private) and cl…
Study public-data assisted private stochastic optimization with labeled or unlabeled public data.
Scalable feature selection improves GBDT model training speed.
Feature selection, which searches for the most representative features in observed data, is critical for health data analysis. Unlike feature extraction, such as PCA and autoencoder based methods, feature selection preserves interpretability, meaning that the selected features provide direct information about certain h…
Model precision in a classification task is highly dependent on the feature space that is used to train the model. Moreover, whether the features are sequential or static will dictate which classification method can be applied as most of the machine learning algorithms are designed to deal with either one or another ty…
Private estimation with public data reduces sample complexity.
In this paper, we study the problem of estimating smooth Generalized Linear Models (GLMs) in the Non-interactive Local Differential Privacy (NLDP) model. Different from its classical setting, our model allows the server to access some additional public but unlabeled data. In the first part of the paper we focus on GLMs…
