Advantage of Integration in Big Data: Feature Generation in Multi-Relational Databases for Imbalanced Learning
DownloadFall 2016
Most data mining and machine learning techniques rely on a single flat table and assume balanced training data. However, most real-world applications comprise databases having multiple tables and imbalanced data. It becomes further complicated in the realm of Big Data where related information is...

An Exploration of Dialog Act Classification in Open-domain Conversational Agents and the Applicability of Text Data Augmentation
DownloadFall 2023
Recognizing dialog acts of users is an essential component in building successful conversational agents. In this work, we propose a dialog act (DA) classifier for two of our open domain conversational agents. For this, we curated a high-quality, multi-domain dataset with ∼24k user utterances...

With the large presence of organizations from different sectors of economy on the web, the problem of detecting which sector a given website belongs to is both important and challenging. We study the problem of classifying websites into four non-topical categories: public, private, non-profit and...

With the burgeoning of online social media and the deluge of information in today's "big data" era, traditional community mining that relies on the connections of the nodes no longer suffices to find communities where the attributes of these nodes play an important role. Though vast research has...
