Advanced Text Analytics and Machine Learning Approach for Document Classification

Anne, Chaitanya 19 May 2017 (has links)
Text classification is used in information extraction and retrieval from a given text, and text classification has been considered as an important step to manage a vast number of records given in digital form that is far-reaching and expanding. This thesis addresses patent document classification problem into fifteen different categories or classes, where some classes overlap with other classes for practical reasons. For the development of the classification model using machine learning techniques, useful features have been extracted from the given documents. The features are used to classify patent document as well as to generate useful tag-words. The overall objective of this work is to systematize NASA’s patent management, by developing a set of automated tools that can assist NASA to manage and market its portfolio of intellectual properties (IP), and to enable easier discovery of relevant IP by users. We have identified an array of methods that can be applied such as k-Nearest Neighbors (kNN), two variations of the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithms, and two tree based classification algorithms: Random Forest and J48. The major research steps in this work consist of filtering techniques for variable selection, information gain and feature correlation analysis, and training and testing potential models using effective classifiers. Further, the obstacles associated with the imbalanced data were mitigated by adding synthetic data wherever appropriate, which resulted in a superior SVM classifier based model.

Machine Learning for Beam Based Mobility Optimization in NR

Ekman, Björn January 2017 (has links)
One option for enabling mobility between 5G nodes is to use a set of area-fixed reference beams in the downlink direction from each node. To save power these reference beams should be turned on only on demand, i.e. only if a mobile needs it. An User Equipment (UE) moving out of a beam's coverage will require a switch from one beam to another, preferably without having to turn on all possible beams to find out which one is the best. This thesis investigates how to transform the beam selection problem into a format suitable for machine learning and how good such solutions are compared to baseline models. The baseline models considered were beam overlap and average Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), both building beam-to-beam maps. Emphasis in the thesis was on handovers between nodes and finding the beam with the highest RSRP. Beam-hit-rate and RSRP-difference (selected minus best) were key performance indicators and were compared for different numbers of activated beams. The problem was modeled as a Multiple Output Regression (MOR) problem and as a Multi-Class Classification (MCC) problem. Both problems are possible to solve with the random forest model, which was the learning model of choice during this work. An Ericsson simulator was used to simulate and collect data from a seven-site scenario with 40 UEs. Primary features available were the current serving beam index and its RSRP. Additional features, like position and distance, were suggested, though many ended up being limited either by the simulated scenario or by the cost of acquiring the feature in a real-world scenario. Using primary features only, learned models' performance were equal to or worse than the baseline models' performance. Adding distance improved the performance considerably, beating the baseline models, but still leaving room for more improvements.

Applying Discriminant Functions with One-Class SVMs for Multi-Class Classification

Lee, Zhi-Ying 09 August 2007 (has links)
AdaBoost.M1 has been successfully applied to improve the accuracy of a learning algorithm for multi-class classification problems. However, it assumes that the performance of each base classifier must be better than 1/2, and this may be hard to achieve in practice for a multi-class problem. A new algorithm called AdaBoost.MK only requiring base classifiers better than a random guessing (1/k) is thus designed. Early SVM-based multi-class classification algorithms work by splitting the original problem into a set of two-class sub-problems. The time and space required by these algorithms are very demanding. In order to have low time and space complexities, we develop a base classifier that integrates one-class SVMs with discriminant functions. In this study, a hybrid method that integrates AdaBoost.MK and one-class SVMs with improved discriminant functions as the base classifiers is proposed to solve a multi-class classification problem. Experimental results on data sets from UCI and Statlog show that the proposed approach outperforms many popular multi-class algorithms including support vector clustering and AdaBoost.M1 with one-class SVMs as the base classifiers.

Multi-Class Imbalanced Learning for Time Series Problem : An Industrial Case Study

Andersson, Melanie January 2020 (has links)
Classification problems with multiple classes and imbalanced sample sizes present a new challenge than the binary classification problems. Methods have been proposed to handle imbalanced learning, however most of them are specifically designed for binary classification problems. Multi-class imbalance imposes additional challenges when applied to time series classification problems, such as weather classification. In this thesis, we introduce, apply and evaluate a new algorithm for handling multi-class imbalanced problems involving time series data. Our proposed algorithm is designed to handle both multi-class imbalance and time series classification problems and is inspired by the Imbalanced Fuzzy-Rough Ordered Weighted Average Nearest Neighbor Classification algorithm. The feasibility of our proposed algorithm is studied through an empirical evaluation performed on a telecom use-case at Ericsson, Sweden where data from commercial microwave links is used for weather classification. Our proposed algorithm is compared to the currently used model at Ericsson which is a one-dimensional convolutional neural network, as well as three other deep learning models. The empirical evaluation indicates that the performance of our proposed algorithm for weather classification is comparable to that of the current solution. Our proposed algorithm and the current solution are the two best performing models of the study.

Evaluating machine learning strategies for classification of large-scale Kubernetes cluster logs

Sarika, Pawan January 2022 (has links)
Kubernetes is a free, open-source container orchestration system for deploying and managing Docker containers that host microservices. Its cluster logs are extremely helpful in determining the root cause of a failure. However, as systems become more complex, locating failures becomes more difficult and time-consuming. This study aims to identify the classification algorithms that accurately classify the given log data and, at the same time, require fewer computational resources. Because the data is quite large, we begin with expert-based feature selection to reduce the data size. Following that, TF-IDF feature extraction is performed, and finally, we compare five classification algorithms, SVM, KNN, random forest, gradient boosting and MLP using several metrics. The results show that Random forest produces good accuracy while requiring fewer computational resources compared to other algorithms.

Multi-Class Classification for Predicting Customer Satisfaction : Application of machine learning methods to predict customer satisfaction at IKEA

Backerholm, Stina, Börjesjö, Malin January 2023 (has links)
Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the features that contribute to customer satisfaction after contact with IKEA’s Remote Customer Meeting Points (RCMPs) is essential for implementing effective remedial measures in the future. The aim of this project is to investigate if it is possible to find key features that influence customer satisfaction and to use these to predict customer satisfaction. The task has been approached as a multi-class classification problem, with the objective of classifying the observations into five distinct levels of customer satisfaction. The study utilized three models, Multinomial Logistic Regression, Random Forest, and Extreme Gradient Boosting, to investigate these possibilities. Based on the methods used and the available data, the results indicate that it is currently not feasible to accurately identify key features or predict customer satisfaction. / Att förstå vilka faktorer som bidrar till kundnöjdhet efter en kontakt med IKEAs RCMPs är avgörande för att kunna genomföra effektiva åtgärder i framtiden. Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka om det är möjligt att hitta nyckelfaktorer som påverkar kundnöjdhet och använda dessa för att prediktera kundnöjdhet. Uppgiften har angripits som ett multi-klass klassificeringsproblem, med syftet att klas- sificera observationerna i fem olika nivåer av kundnöjdhet. Studien har utvärderat tre olika modeller, Multinomial Logistic Regression, Random Forest och Extreme Gradient Boosting, för att undersöka dessa möjligheter. Baserat på de använda metoderna med tillgängliga data, indikerar resultaten att det för tillfället inte är möjligt att identifiera nyckelfaktorer eller prediktera kundnöjdhet med hög noggrannhet.

Multi-class recognition using pair-wise classifiers / Daugelio klasių atpažinimas naudojant klasifikatorius poroms

Kybartas, Rimantas 01 October 2010 (has links)
There are plenty of solutions for the task of multi-class recognition. Unfortunately, these solutions are not always unanimous. Most of them are based on empirical experiments while statistical data features consideration is often omitted. That’s why questions like when and which method should be used, what the reliability of any chosen method is for solving a multi-class recognition task arise. In this dissertation two-stage multi-class decision methods are analyzed. Pair-wise classifiers able to better exploit statistical data features are used in the first stage of such methods. In the second stage a particular fusion rule of the first stage results is used to fuse the first stage results in order to produce the final classification decision. Complexity issues of pair-wise classifiers, training data size and precision of method quality estimation are pointed out in the research. The precision of algorithm highly depends on the data and the number of experiments performed (data permutation, division into training and testing data). It is shown that the declared superiority of some known algorithms is not reliable due to low precision of estimation. A detailed comparison of well known multi-class classification methods is performed and a new pair-wise classifier fusion method based on similar method used in multi-class classifier fusion is presented. The recommendations for multi-class classification task designer are provided. Methods which allow reducing classification...
