In this context, aspect-based sentiment analysis with its two main tasks; aspect detection and aspect-opinion classification, might provide an accurate picture of many educational institutions ’ strengths and weaknesses. In this research, a real-world Twitter dataset was collected, containing approximately 7,934 Arabic tweets related to Qassim University in Saudi Arabia. In the text classification task, the high dimensionality problem is usually faced, and the feature selection methods contribute to tackling this problem. Accordingly, the purpose of the experimental study is to investigate the effectiveness of using a hybrid feature selection method in improving the results of aspect-based sentiment analysis by reducing the number of features. The proposed hybrid feature method consists of a one-way analysis of variance to examine the relationship between each feature and classes, and the ridge regression that calculates the importance of features together during the learning phase. Several experiments were conducted to study the effects of the proposed feature selection method on improving the Support Vector Machine classifier ’s performance. The experimental results demonstrate that the hybrid method successfully enhances the classifier’s performance in both subtasks.","PeriodicalId":128526,"journal":{"name":"2020 14th International Conference on Innovations in Information Technology (IIT)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124979577","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Information fusion systems currently use static a-priori information and knowledge bases, and in some cases, incomplete or stale symbolic information, which is not situational or contextual. This paper formalises Dynamic Reference Information (DRI), which is defined as temporal, contextual, situational and actionable information that can update a-priori information. Furthermore, DRI semantically represents new objects, attributes and their values from situations within an observable space. The formalisation of DRI was used on unstructured information generated during the Heimdall Experiment. During the analysis, two main results were reported: i) novel Objects of Interest within an Observable Space were able to be defined from unstructured information ii) the implicit nature of context in DRI allowed an enhanced situational understanding of all a-priori and novel objects perceived in a situation represented within a tactical display.","PeriodicalId":128526,"journal":{"name":"2020 14th International Conference on Innovations in Information Technology (IIT)","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123584442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We solve it by proposing base-centric and user-centric clustering algorithms that are based on thresholding and sorting processes. In the system model, each user can select just one base-station to communicate while each base-station can serve one or more than one user in its coverage area, simultaneously. First, by proposing a thresholding phase, we limit the search region by removing those users who are far from all base-stations. This phase easily changes a four-constraint problem into a three-constraint optimization problem. Then, to show the superiority of the proposed solutions, the numerical analyses are compared to the popular K-means and Voronoi clustering algorithms, in the view of the number of supported users and the achieved average sum-rate per user for a different number of the resources for each base-station.","PeriodicalId":128526,"journal":{"name":"2020 14th International Conference on Innovations in Information Technology (IIT)","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129338076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, European Union has established strong data protection regulation rules for companies operating within EU. In order to be compliant with these new rules and regulations, organizations have to put a lot of resources to create data privacy policies and plans as well as to adjust tools to manage data privacy requests and fullfill privacy by design and privacy by default principles. Especially for small and medium-sized (SME) Information Technology (IT) firms and software development organizations with limited resources, new GDPR legislation and stricter requirements for information security have caused several challenges and uncertainty on what is adequate level of data privacy. In this paper, we focus on exploring Finnish IT SMEs and their actions and feelings on data privacy and information security. The research problem of this study is: How small and medium sized companies have prepared for growing data privacy and information security requirements? The main contribution of this paper is to show how small and medium sized IT companies in Northern Savo region did prepare for EU data privacy regulation and what types of challenges did exist in the GDPR preparation phase.","PeriodicalId":128526,"journal":{"name":"2020 14th International Conference on Innovations in Information Technology (IIT)","volume":"150 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114790417","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transfer learning concept applies the idea of reuse the pre-trained Convolutional Neural Network to solve a new problem without the need for large-scale datasets for training. Eight pre-trained deep learning models namely AlexNet, GoogleNet, ResNet18, ResNet50, ResNet101, Vgg16, Vgg19, and NasNetMobile are fine-tuned accordingly to evaluate the quality of fruits and vegetable. To evaluate the training and validation performance of each fine-tuned model, we collect a dataset consists of images from 12 fruits and vegetable samples. The dataset builds over five weeks. For every week 70 images collected therefore the total number of images over five weeks is 350 and the total number of images in the dataset is (12*350) 4200 images. The overall number of classes in the dataset is (12*5) 60 classes. The evaluation of the models was conducted based on this dataset and also based on an augmented version.

Some of the challenging aspect of a detection network is the fact that an object can appear anywhere in the image, be partially occluded by another object, might appear in crowd or have greatly varying scales. Consequently, we propose a fine grained and equally spaced dense grid cells throughout an input image be responsible of detecting an object. We re-purpose an already existing deep state-of-the-art detector or classifier into deep and dense detector. Our dense object detector uses binary class encoding and hence suitable for very large multi-class object detector. We also propose a more flexible and robust non-max suppression implementation to filter out redundant detection of same object. As a result of our dense object detection implementation we have managed to increase YOLOv2’s performance on Pascal VOC 2007 and COCO datasets by +2.3% and +7.2% mean average precision (mAP) respectively.","PeriodicalId":128526,"journal":{"name":"2020 14th International Conference on Innovations in Information Technology (IIT)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133128947","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we elaborate on containerized microservice, leveraging the lightweight Docker container technology. The evolution of microservice architecture allows applications to be structured into independent modular components making them easier to manage and scale. As a special case, the containerized sentiment analysis microservice is deployed using popular classification approaches. We implement and compare eight machine learning algorithms: Multinomial Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, Random Forest, K-Nearest Neighbour, AdaBoost, Support Vector Machine, Multilayer Perceptron, and Stochastic Gradient Descent to analyze and classify the tweets into positive, negative, and neutral sentiments. Experimental results procured for the Twitter US Airline Sentiment dataset show that Support Vector Machine, Multinomial Naive Bayes, Stochastic Gradient Descent, and Random Forest outperform the other algorithms. We believe that this research study will assist companies and organizations to improve their services by precisely analyzing Twitter data.","PeriodicalId":128526,"journal":{"name":"2020 14th International Conference on Innovations in Information Technology (IIT)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123889501","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
