A whole network can then be trained (fine-tuned) in a supervised fashion. One possible pre-training strategy is to regard each hidden layer in the network as the input layer of an auto-encoder. Since auto-encoders aim to reconstruct their own input, their training must be based on some cost function capable of measuring reconstruction performance. Similarly, the supervised fine-tuning of a deep network needs to be based on some cost function that reflects prediction performance. In this work we compare different combinations of cost functions in terms of their impact on layer-wise reconstruction performance and on supervised classification performance of deep networks. We employed two classic functions, namely the cross-entropy (CE) cost and the sum of squared errors (SSE), as well as the exponential (EXP) cost, inspired by the error entropy concept. Our results were based on a number of artificial and real-world data sets.","PeriodicalId":340039,"journal":{"name":"2013 12th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116679175","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 deal with the two major disadvantages of the Textual Energy: the asymmetry of the distribution and the unbounded ness of the maximum value. Although this model has been successfully used in several NLP tasks like summarization, clustering and sentence compression, no correction of these problems has been proposed until now. Concerning the maximum value, we analyze the computation of Textual Energy matrix and we conclude that energy values are dominated by the lexical richness in quadratic growth of the vocabulary size. Using the Box-Cox transformation, we show empirical evidence that a log transformation could correct both problems.","PeriodicalId":340039,"journal":{"name":"2013 12th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128893417","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 estimation of the semantic similarity between words provides a valuable method to enable the understanding of texts. In the field of biomedical domains, using Ontologies have been very effective due to their scalability and efficiency. The problem of extracting knowledge from huge amount of data is recorded as an issue in the medical sector. In this paper, we aim to improve knowledge representation by using MeSH Ontology on medical theses data by analyzing the similarity between the keywords within the theses data and keywords after using the MeSH ontology. As a result, we are able to better discover the commonalities between theses data and hence, improve the accuracy of the similarity estimation which in return improves the scientific research sector. Then, K-means cluster algorithm was applied to get the nearest departments that can work together based on medical ontology. Experimental evaluations using 4, 878 theses data set in the medical sector at Cairo University indicate that the proposed approach yields results that correlate more closely with human assessments than other by using the standard ontology (MeSH). Results show that using ontology correlates better, compared to related works, with the similarity assessments provided by experts in biomedicine.","PeriodicalId":340039,"journal":{"name":"2013 12th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133766305","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}

To determine if this approach is useful to classify malware variants into the correct families, we employ Euclidean Distance and a Multilayer Perceptron with several learning algorithms. The experimental results are analyzed to determine which method works best with the approach. The experiments were conducted with a database that contains real samples of worms and trojans and show that is possible to classify malware variants using the number of functions imported per library. However, the accuracy varies depending on the method used for the classification.","PeriodicalId":340039,"journal":{"name":"2013 12th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131405452","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}

That is because this important organ of the hearing in the mammalians is the principal element used to make a transduction of the sound pressure that is received by the ear. In this paper we show how the macro and micro mechanical model is used in ASR tasks. We used the values that Neely founded in his work, related with the macro and micro mechanical model, such as was named, to set the central frequencies of a bank filter to obtain parameters from the speech used in a similar form as MFCC were constructed. We propose a new approach that considers a new form to construct the bank filter in our parametric representation. Then we used this distribution of the bank filter to have a new representation of the speech in frequency domain. It is important indicate that MFCC parameters use Mel scale to create a bank filter where central frequencies of each filter is in function of the scale mentioned above. We used the response of the Neely's model behavior to create the central frequencies of the bank filter mentioned above, then we substitute the Mel scale function by another representation. We use the place theory, and we reach a 98.5% of performance, for a task that uses isolated digits pronounced by 5 different speakers. Neely's model was used because a set of parameters of the cochlea as mass, damping and stiffness, among others, when are substituted inside the model make the response obtained is closer than von Békésy proposed in his preliminary work about principle function of the cochlea.","PeriodicalId":340039,"journal":{"name":"2013 12th Mexican International Conference on Artificial Intelligence","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125411282","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}
