We applied machine learning algorithms to RESP-Microcephaly, a database from the Brazilian Ministry of Health that records suspected cases of congenital abnormalities. At the end of the process, the most relevant characteristics were: weight, age of the pregnant woman, length, head circumference and region where the mother lives. This information is very significant as it is in agreement with the literature that associates these attributes with critical factors for the occurrence of congenital infection.","PeriodicalId":391667,"journal":{"name":"Anais do IX Symposium on Knowledge Discovery, Mining and Learning (KDMiLe 2021)","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124131512","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}

NamedEntity Recognition is important because it is a fundamental step of preprocessing for several applications like relationextraction. However, it is a hard problem to solve as several categories of named entities are written similarly andthey appear in similar contexts. To accomplish it, we can use some hybrid approaches. Nevertheless, in this presentstudy, we use linguistic flavor by applying Local Grammar and Cascade of Transducers. Local Grammars are used torepresent the rules of a particular linguistic structure. They are often built manually to describe the entities we aimto recognize. In our study, we adapted a Local Grammar to improve the Recognition of Named Entities. The resultsshow an improvement of up to 7% on the F-measure metric in relation to the previous Local Grammar. Also, we builtanother Local Grammar to recognize family relationships from the improved Local Grammar.

To address this problem, different approaches, manual and automated, have been proposed over the years, including more recently machine learning alternatives. However, despite the advances achieved, some machine learning techniques have not yet been effectively explored, such as the use of feature selection techniques. Moreover, it is not clear to what extent the use of numerous source-code features are necessary for reasonable bad smell detection success. Therefore, in this work we propose an approach using low-cost machine learning for effective and efficient detection of bad smells, through explicit feature selection. Our results showed that the selection allowed to statistically improve the effectiveness of the models. For some cases, the models achieved statistical equivalence, but relying on a highly reduced set of features. Indeed, by using explicit feature selection, simpler models such as Naive Bayes became statistically equivalent to robust models such as Random Forest. Therefore, the selection of features allowed keeping competitive or even superior effectiveness while also improving the efficiency of the models, demanding less computational resources for source-code preprocessing, model training and bad smell detection.","PeriodicalId":391667,"journal":{"name":"Anais do IX Symposium on Knowledge Discovery, Mining and Learning (KDMiLe 2021)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127867753","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 task of recommending researchers, for example, to a project is not simple. Even with the proper amount of data, ranking and recommending researchers becomes a challenging process. Despite the different methods, what can happen is that the datasets of an institution or research areas do not have a ranking value, that is, a value that can be used to assess the position of a researcher. Even having a necessary dataset, there is no ranking information for these researchers, and this process of obtaining data for training a model can be costly. We propose to use clustering techniques to support the ranking process, reducing the human effort to obtain examples for models training. Then, we used this dataset to train the regression models and Mean Squared Error (MSE) and Normalized Discounted Cumulative Gain (nDCG) to evaluate them. Tests demonstrate that our solution can support the researchers' recommendation process in an adaptive process to the needs of an organization.","PeriodicalId":391667,"journal":{"name":"Anais do IX Symposium on Knowledge Discovery, Mining and Learning (KDMiLe 2021)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130561020","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}

However, discovering abnormal data that is mixed with the huge amount of data available is a daunting problem and the efficacy of the current methods depends on a wide range of assumptions. One effective strategy for detecting anomalies is to combine multiple models, which are called \"ensembles\", but the factors that determine their performance are often hard to determine, making their calibration and improvement a challenging task. In this paper we address these problems by employing a four-step method for the characterization and understanding of ensemble-based anomaly-detection task. We start by characterizing several datasets and analyzing the factors that make it hard to detect their anomalies. We then evaluate to what extent existing algorithms are able to detect anomalies in the same datasets. On the basis of both analyses, we propose a stacking-based ensemble that outperformed a state-of-the-art baseline, Isolation Forest. Finally, we examine the benefits and drawbacks of our proposal.","PeriodicalId":391667,"journal":{"name":"Anais do IX Symposium on Knowledge Discovery, Mining and Learning (KDMiLe 2021)","volume":"318 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122222614","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}

Popular models for O&G time series are ARIMA and LSTM recurrent networks, and tipically several lags are forecasted at once. LSTM models can deploy the recursive prediction strategy, which uses one prediction to make the next, or the multiple outputs (MO) strategy, which predicts a sequence of values in a single shot. This work assesses ARIMA and LSTM models for the forecasting of petroleum production time series. We use time series of pressure and gas/oil flow from actual wells with distinct properties, for which we developed predictive models considering different time horizons. For the LSTM models, we deploy both the recursive and MO strategies. Our comparison revealed the superiority of LSTM models in general, and MO-based models for longer time intervals.","PeriodicalId":391667,"journal":{"name":"Anais do IX Symposium on Knowledge Discovery, Mining and Learning (KDMiLe 2021)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133309231","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}
