چکیده

Often, the information contained in network data is incomplete. Many avenues of research are aimed at addressing this incompleteness. For example, the link prediction problem attempts to identify which missing links are most likely to exist in the complete network. In this paper, we consider a related, but different, problem: predicting the directions of links in a directed network. We treat this problem as a supervised learning problem in which the directions of some edges are known. We calculate various features of each known edge based on its position in the network, and use a Support Vector Machine to predict the unknown directions of edges. We consider four networks, and show that in each case, this method performs significantly better than other compared methods.

Machine learning based Visual Evoked Potential (VEP) Signals Recognition

Introduction: Visual evoked potentials contain certain diagnostic information which have proved to be of importance in the visual systems functional integrity. Due to substantial decrease of amplitude in extra macular stimulation in commonly used pattern VEPs, differentiating normal and abnormal signals can prove to be quite an obstacle. Due to developments of use of machine l...

Semi-Supervised Learning Based Prediction of Musculoskeletal Disorder Risk

This study explores a semi-supervised classification approach using random forest as a base classifier to classify the low-back disorders (LBDs) risk associated with the industrial jobs. Semi-supervised classification approach uses unlabeled data together with the small number of labelled data to create a better classifier. The results obtained by the proposed approach are compared with those o...

Integration of remote sensing and meteorological data to predict flooding time using deep learning algorithm

Accurate flood forecasting is a vital need to reduce its risks. Due to the complicated structure of flood and river flow, it is somehow difficult to solve this problem. Artificial neural networks, such as frequent neural networks, offer good performance in time series data. In recent years, the use of Long Short Term Memory networks hase attracted much attention due to the faults of frequent ne...

Supervised Prediction of Social Network Links Using Implicit Sources of Information

In this paper, we introduce a supervised machine learning framework for the link prediction problem. The social network we conducted our empirical evaluation on originates from the restaurant review portal, yelp.com. The proposed framework not only uses the structure of the social network to predict non-existing edges in it, but also makes use of further graphs that were constructed based on im...
