Psychosocial Features for Hate Speech Detection in Code-switched Texts

Psychosocial Features for Hate Speech Detection in Code-switched Texts

Edward Ombui, Lawrence Muchemi, Peter Wagacha

Статья научная

This study examines the problem of hate speech identification in codeswitched text from social media using a natural language processing approach. It explores different features in training nine models and empirically evaluates their predictiveness in identifying hate speech in a ~50k human-annotated dataset. The study espouses a novel approach to handle this challenge by introducing a hierarchical approach that employs Latent Dirichlet Analysis to generate topic models that help build a high-level Psychosocial feature set that we acronym PDC. PDC groups similar meaning words in word families, which is significant in capturing codeswitching during the preprocessing stage for supervised learning models. The high-level PDC features generated are based on a hate speech annotation framework [1] that is largely informed by the duplex theory of hate [2]. Results obtained from frequency-based models using the PDC feature on the dataset comprising of tweets generated during the 2012 and 2017 presidential elections in Kenya indicate an f-score of 83% (precision: 81%, recall: 85%) in identifying hate speech. The study is significant in that it publicly shares a unique codeswitched dataset for hate speech that is valuable for comparative studies. Secondly, it provides a methodology for building a novel PDC feature set to identify nuanced forms of hate speech, camouflaged in codeswitched data, which conventional methods could not adequately identify.

Bala Dhandayuthapani V.

Статья научная

Python is popular in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) due to its versatility, adaptability, rich libraries, and active community. The existing Python interoperability in Java was investigated using socket programming on a non-graphical user interface (GUI). Python's data analysis library modules such as numpy, pandas, and scipy, together with visualization library modules such as Matplotlib and Seaborn, and Scikit-learn for machine-learning, aim to integrate into Java graphical user interface (GUI) applications such as Java applets, Java Swing, and Java FX. The substantial method used in the integration process is TCP socket programming, which makes instruction and data transfers to provide interoperability between Python and Java GUIs. This empirical research integrates Python data analysis and visualization graphs into Java applications and does not require any additional libraries or third-party libraries. The experimentation confirmed the advantages and challenges of this integration with a concrete solution. The intended audience for this research extends to software developers, data analysts, and scientists, recognizing Python's broad applicability to artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). The integration of data analysis and visualization and machine-learning functionalities within the Java GUI. It emphasizes the self-sufficiency of the integration process and suggests future research directions, including comparative analysis with Java's native capabilities, interactive data visualization using libraries like Altair, Bokeh, Plotly, and Pygal, performance and security considerations, and no-code and low-code implementations.

QoS Aware Logical Channel Prioritization under Burst Resource Allocation for Uplink in LTE

Mannu Kumar, Neeti Kashyap

Статья научная

Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the latest 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) standard of the Mobile communication system. LTE has been proposed to achieve higher data throughput, lower latency and better quality of service (QoS). In LTE network (n/w), the resource (resource referred to frequency and time domain on the air interface) sharing is one of the major challenging issues and it is one of the key functions to achieve the desired QoS for the different configured data stream. In this context of QoS for LTE n/w, Multiplexing & Logical Channel Prioritization (LCP) is referred. In this paper, we present a brief survey on LCP techniques for the uplink (UL) direction. UL direction referred mobile to n/w communication. A strategy has been proposed for LCP to achieve QoS under burst resource allocation environment. Proposed approach considers the priority of each logical channel configured by evolved NodeB (eNB) during radio bearer (RB) setup/re-configuration.

Quality of Service Enhancement of Wireless Sensor Network Using Symmetric Key Cryptographic Schemes

Quality of Service Enhancement of Wireless Sensor Network Using Symmetric Key Cryptographic Schemes

Er. Gurjot Singh, Er. Sandeep Kaur Dhanda

Статья научная

A Wireless Sensor Network is a combination of spatially distributed independent nodes deployed in dense environment, communicating wirelessly over limited bandwidth and frequency. Security and Qos is the major concern in wireless sensor network due to its wireless communication nature and constraints like low computation capability, less memory, bounded energy resources, susceptibility to physical capture or damages and the use of insecure wireless communication channels. These constraints make security along with the QoS, a challenge in wireless sensor network. The cryptographic schemes increases the level of security and make it secure against critical attacks but also has a significant impact on the QoS of wireless sensor network. In this paper, the different cryptographic schemes based on asymmetric key and symmetric key cryptography are evaluated. The symmetric key cryptography schemes require less time for processing, less power and also require less storage space as compared to asymmetric key cryptographic schemes, results in less impact on the QoS of wireless sensor network. In this paper, the QoS of wireless sensor network along with cryptographic schemes will be evaluated on the basis of metrics like throughput, jitter, end-to-end delay, total packet received and energy consumption.

Quantitative Analysis of RFID based Vehicle Toll Collection System using UML and SPN

Razib Hayat Khan

Статья научная

This paper focuses on the quantitative analysis of RFID based vehicle toll collection system. Since we conduct the quantitative analysis long before the implementation of the infrastructure, the approach is realized by the UML and SPN to capture the system dynamics and carry out multiple performance tests of the possible infrastructure. Thus, the performance tests ensure the installation of correct number of RFID vehicle toll collection booth in the entrance of a bridge or a highway so that the traffic congestion can be kept as minimal as possible as well as financial viability can be confirmed. We analyze the response time and throughput to know the maximum limit for the diverse number of arrival vehicles that is served by the different number of toll booths. This finally gives us a better understanding of the number of units necessary for toll collection to decrease the traffic congestion in a budget constraint manner.

Quantum-dot Controlled Electronic Block Triggering a Quantum Computation Procedure

Quantum-dot Controlled Electronic Block Triggering a Quantum Computation Procedure

Vladimir К. Voronov

Статья научная

The works devoted to an issue of quantum computer design have been analyzed. The main problems related to creation of the quantum computer are discussed. A fundamentally new approach to solving the problem of creating a truly quantum computer based on the “up to bottom” strategy has been proposed and justified. The strategy can be implemented by preliminary visualization of the quantum states of qubits using nanotriggers formed from two-dimensional material, in particular, graphene. This refers to the visualization (materialization) of all, including entangled, states, which mainly determine the theoretically possible large mathematical resource of a quantum computer. A block-diagram of the electronic device based on “a priory” quantum states of q-bits is proposed. It is shown that for implementation of quantum computation procedure, each materialized (visualized) Shor's cell should correspond to an element of the electronic scheme. The device includes a block containing at least 1010 nanotriggers that perform a role of q-bits of quantum computation, which are created using graphene nanoribbons and controlled by a special element. The latter represents a self-organizing quantum dot having two essentially different states in terms of magnetic properties. This quantum dot is prepared on the basis of a compound, the molecules of which are characterized by the intramolular rearrangement. The nanotriggers are employed to form reversible logic blocks or gates. Each gate contains three triggers to perform logical operations. The offered device is an additional electronic unit that is embedded in a digital computer, which makes it possible to implement the computational process in accordance with the requirements of the provisions of quantum physics.

Quantum-dot cellular automata based fragile watermarking method for tamper detection using chaos

Turker Tuncer, Sengul Dogan

Статья научная

Fragile watermarking techniques have been widely used in the literature for tampered areas localization and image authentication. In this study, a novel quantum-dot cellular automata based fragile watermarking method for tampered area localization using chaotic piecewise map is proposed. Watermark generation, embedding, extraction and tampered area localization phases are consisted of the proposed quantum dot cellular automata and chaos based fragile watermarking method. In the watermark generation phase, quantum dot cellular automata and piecewise map which is a chaotic map are utilized. A block based method is utilized as authentication values embedding and extraction phases. To detect tampered areas, generated watermark and extracted watermark are compared. Also, block counters are used to tamper detection. In order to evaluate this method, capacity, imperceptibility and image authentication ability were utilized as performance metrics and the results of these metrics clearly illustrated that the presented method is suitable for image authentication and tamper detection.

Query Recommendation by Coupling Personalization with Clustering for Search Engine

Dhiliphanrajkumar.Thambidurai, Suruliandi. Aandavar, Selvaperumal.Prakasam

Статья научная

In the present world internet and web search engines have become an important part in one's day-to-day life. For a user query, more than few thousand web pages are retrieved but most of them are irrelevant. A major problem in search engine is that the user queries are usually short and ambiguous, and they are not sufficient to satisfy the precise user needs. Also listing more number of results according to user make them worry about searching the desired results and it takes large amount of time to search from the huge list of results. To overcome all the problems, an effective approach is developed by capturing the users' click through and bookmarking data to provide personalized query recommendation. For retrieving the results, Google API is used. Experimental results show that the proposed method is providing better query recommendation results than the existing query suggestion methods.

RBNS Encoded Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Network

RBNS Encoded Energy Efficient Routing Protocol for Wireless Sensor Network

Indrajit Bhattcharya, Prasun Sarkar, Priyasha Basu

Статья научная

Self Organizing Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is an emergent and challenging technology that is applicable to various real life scenarios. Different routing protocols in the WSN have been proposed over the years. In this type of network the major concern is the energy constraint sensor nodes that operate on limited battery power. Hence energy efficient routing algorithm in WSN need to be developed in order to address the battery power constraint of the sensor nodes. Minimizing the communication overhead during the data transmission and reception can considerably reduce the energy requirement of the sensor nodes. Redundant Binary Number System (RBNS) is one of the energy efficient techniques that can reduce the communication overhead by reducing the number of 1’s required to communicate in a data packet. In our proposed work the RBNS communication technique is applied with an existing popular routing protocol in WSN to achieve an energy efficient routing protocol. The algorithm has been successfully implemented in a simulated environment and the result that has obtained demonstrates the significant enhancement of network lifetime of the sensor network.

RDF link generation by exploring related links on the web of data

RDF link generation by exploring related links on the web of data

Kumar Sharma, Ujjal Marjit, Utpal Biswas

Статья научная

Interlinking RDF resources is a vital aspect of the Semantic Web technology. It is the basis of Linked Data that provides interlinked datasets on the web. One of the principles of Linked Data is interlinking resources from different data sources on the web. Data interlinking is a critical and challenging problem that every Linked Data generation applications face. Various approaches have been evolved for resolving this problem, but, for more massive datasets, it becomes almost indefinite time while linking similar or related resources. Linking RDF resources is like the problem of entity matching, record matching or duplicate resource detection. More or less they attempt to point to the same problem, but the RDF link generation is the task of finding related resources on the web. In this article, we present an approach for generating RDF links using the similarity measure between two RDF resources and by exploring associated relationships of the matched resources. The idea is to find related resources and link them with an RDF resource that is being generated.

RLS Wiener Smoother for Colored Observation Noise with Relation to Innovation Theory in Linear Discrete-Time Stochastic Systems

Seiichi Nakamori

Статья научная

Almost estimators are designed for the white observation noise. In the estimation problems, rather than the white observation noise, there might be actual cases where the observation noise is colored. This paper, from the viewpoint of the innovation theory, based on the recursive least-squares (RLS) Wiener fixed-point smoother and filter for the colored observation noise, newly proposes the RLS Wiener fixed-interval smoothing algorithm in linear discrete-time wide-sense stationary stochastic systems. The observation y(k) is given as the sum of the signal z(k)=Hx(k) and the colored observation noise (v_c)(k). The RLS Wiener fixed-interval smoother uses the following information: (a) the system matrix for the state vector x(k); (b) the observation matrix H; (c) the variance of the state vector; (d) the system matrix for the colored observation noise (v_c)(k); (e) the variance of the colored observation noise; (f) the input noise variance in the state equation for the colored observation noise.

RS-CBAODV: An Enhanced Reactive Routing Algorithm for VANET to Reduce Connection Breakage using Remote Storage Concepts

RS-CBAODV: An Enhanced Reactive Routing Algorithm for VANET to Reduce Connection Breakage using Remote Storage Concepts

N. Arul Kumar, E. George Dharma Prakash Raj

Статья научная

Vehicular Ad hoc Network (VANET) is formed to share information on a temporary basis between the vehicular nodes in a wireless medium. The routing information is used to discover the vehicles and the route has to be maintained to transfer the data. It may lead to link failure or breakage in the communication, if there is high network mobility and constrained topology arrangement. In case of failure, it may cause loss of data and delay in the network. So, to avoid breakage, the routing information is stored in traditional protocols like CBAODV and CS-CBAODV. Instead of storing routing information in client side, the idea of storing data in the remote side is taken into consideration to backup permanently. This remote server manages the data in client server which is to be delivered to vehicular node. After analyzing related protocols and simulators, a new reactive based routing protocol is designed in this research work and it is named as RS-CBAODV is used to handle routing information between vehicular node, Client side node (RST i.e. Road Side Terminals) and also in Remote side storage node. To analysis the performance of the proposed protocol, MOVE and NS2 simulator is used to compare both CS-CBAODV and RS-CBAODV protocols.

RSKD Ensemble Classifier with Stable Ensemble Feature Selection for High Dimensional Low Sample Size Cancer Datasets

RSKD Ensemble Classifier with Stable Ensemble Feature Selection for High Dimensional Low Sample Size Cancer Datasets

Archana Suhas Vaidya, Dipak V. Patil

Статья научная

This study presents the RSKD ensemble classifier, developed with ensemble feature selection techniques, to address high-dimensional, low-sample-size cancer datasets. Ensemble classifiers are advantageous in such scenarios, offering better classification accuracy than traditional methods by combining multiple models. This combination enhances predictive performance on high-dimensional datasets. However, stability—a key factor for consistent performance on unseen data—often involves a tradeoff with accuracy. Ensemble methods, due to their generalization capabilities, exhibit higher stability, with feature selection stability measured using a consistency index, averaging 65–70%. The RSKD classifier integrates ensemble feature selection methods SU-R and ChS-R, which enhance feature selection stability and classification accuracy. Its performance was evaluated on seven high-dimensional, low-sample-size datasets and compared against state-of-the-art classifiers, including Adaboost, GradientBoost, REPTree, asBagging_FSS, SRKNN, MF-GE, and eAdaBoost with DSC. The RSKD ensemble classifier achieved an accuracy improvement of 7.69% to 12.35% over these methods. Among the feature selection approaches, SU-R combined with RSKD outperformed ChS-R, demonstrating superior results in cancer prediction tasks. The findings of this study underscore the potential of RSKD for achieving generalized, robust performance on challenging datasets. By leveraging ensemble classifiers and ensemble feature selection techniques, researchers can address the inherent difficulties of high-dimensional, low-sample-size datasets, enhancing both accuracy and stability. This work provides a valuable foundation for developing diverse, heterogeneous ensemble approaches for cancer prediction and similar applications.

We are interested in rainfall events evaluation by applying adaptive neural-fuzzy inference System. Four parameters: Temperature, relative humidity, total cloud cover and due point are the input variables for our model, each has 121 membership functions. The data is six years METAR data for Mashhad city [2007-2012]. Different models for Mashhad city stations were constructed depending on the available data sets. Among the overall 25 possibilities one model with one hundred twenty one fuzzy IF-THEN rules has chosen. The output variable is 0 (no rainfall event) or 1 (rainfall event). With comparing trained data with actual data, we could evaluate rainfall events about 90.5 percent. The results are in high agreement with the recorded data for the station with increasing in values towards the real time rain events. All implementation are done with MATLAB.

Random Connection Based Scale-free Networks

Random Connection Based Scale-free Networks

Shun-Li Lou, Xu-Hua Yang

Статья научная

Scale-free phenomenon has opened up a new network model as a special form of degree distribution. Preferential connection and growth constitutive are generally considered as the tow key factors in the formation of scale-free network. However, some network model with completely random connections instead of preferential connection can also generate scale-free networks, such as the protein interaction network in a cell. The article constructed such a random connection way: select an arbitrary neighbor vertex of a random vertex to add side. Through our simulation shows this model absolutely has the characteristics of scale-free networks. And the power-law distribution index [1+β^(-1)] of the new model is related to m which is the number of add edges every time. When m is sufficiently large, [1+β^(-1)] tends to quickly stable and the final size is 3. Then we use the Mean field theory analyzed theoretically, and get an analytic solution of degree distribution. Our study reveals that random connections without preferential strategy can also generate scale-free network.

Random Handwritten CAPTCHA: Web Security with a Difference

Mukta Rao, Nipur Singh

Статья научная

It is hard to believe a web form without a CAPTCHA. The web survival in this cut-throat competition is impossible without the mechanisms for blocking spam-boats. The spam-boats have now been made intelligent enough to break through machine printed CAPTCHAs. Handwritten CAPTCHA image can be one solution. In this paper handwritten CAPTCHA images have been used to enhance the web security. Introduction of randomness at various stages is proven to increase the recognition complexity for the spam boats, whereas the ease of recognition of handwritten words by human beings eventually increases the usefulness of such CAPTCHA. The technique used to produce colored image of handwritten letters also has randomness associated with it. The proposed CAPTCHA images contain alphanumeric content, one word with letters and a number with handwritten numerals. CAPTCHA images developed using proposed technique have been tested across various OCRs and online available resources as well.
