Digging for Peace: Using Machine Learning Methods for Assessing International Conflict Databases
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the last decade research in Machine Learning has developed a variety of powerful tools for inductive learning and data analysis. On the other hand, research in International Relations has developed a variety of different conflict databases that are mostly analyzed with classical statistical methods. As these databases are in general of a symbolic nature, they provide an interesting domain for application of Machine Learning algorithms. This paper gives a short overview of available conflict databases and subsequently concentrates on the application of machine learning methods for the analysis and interpretation of the CONFMAN mediation dataset.

متن کاملBehavioral Analysis of Traffic Flow for an Effective Network Traffic Identification
Fast and accurate network traffic identification is becoming essential for network management, high quality of service control and early detection of network traffic abnormalities. Techniques based on statistical features of packet flows have recently become popular for network classification due to the limitations of traditional port and payload based methods. In this paper, we propose a metho...
متن کاملA Joint Human/Machine Process for Coding Events and Conflict Drivers
Constructing datasets to analyse the progression of conflicts has been a longstanding objective of peace and conflict studies research. In essence, the problem is to reliably extract relevant text snippets and code (annotate) them using an ontology that is meaningful to social scientists. Such an ontology usually characterizes either types of violent events (killing, bombing, etc.), and/or the ...
متن کاملFault Detection of Anti-friction Bearing using Ensemble Machine Learning Methods
Anti-Friction Bearing (AFB) is a very important machine component and its unscheduled failure leads to cause of malfunction in wide range of rotating machinery which results in unexpected downtime and economic loss. In this paper, ensemble machine learning techniques are demonstrated for the detection of different AFB faults. Initially, statistical features were extracted from temporal vibratio...
