To enjoy more social network services, users nowadays are usually involved in multiple online social networks simultaneously. The shared users between different networks are called anchor users, while the remaining unshared users are named as non-anchor users. Connections between accounts of anchor users in different networks are defined as anchor links and networks partially aligned by anchor links can be represented as partially aligned networks. In this paper, we want to predict anchor links between partially aligned social networks, which is formally defined as the partial network alignment problem. The partial network alignment problem is very difficult to solve because of the following two challenges: (1) the lack of general features for anchor links, and (2) the "one-to-one @math " (one to at most one) constraint on anchor links. To address these two challenges, a new method PNA (Partial Network Aligner) is proposed in this paper. PNA (1) extracts a set of explicit anchor adjacency features and latent topological features for anchor links based on the anchor meta path concept and tensor decomposition techniques, and (2) utilizes the generic stable matching to identify the non-anchor users to prune the redundant anchor links attached to them. Extensive experiments conducted on two real-world partially aligned social networks demonstrate that PNA can solve the partial network alignment problem very well and outperform all the other comparison methods with significant advantages.
Class imbalance problems in classification can be very common in real-world applications. @cite_50 propose a technique for over-sampling the minority class with generated new synthetic minority instances. @cite_18 propose to address the class imbalance problems with under sampling of the majority cases in the training set. A systematic study of the is available in @cite_46 .

Class imbalance is a common problem in the case of real-world object detection and classification tasks. Data of some classes are abundant, making them an overrepresented majority, and data of other classes are scarce, making them an underrepresented minority. This imbalance makes it challenging for a classifier to appropriately learn the discriminating boundaries of the majority and minority classes. In this paper, we propose a cost-sensitive (CoSen) deep neural network, which can automatically learn robust feature representations for both the majority and minority classes. During training, our learning procedure jointly optimizes the class-dependent costs and the neural network parameters. The proposed approach is applicable to both binary and multiclass problems without any modification. Moreover, as opposed to data-level approaches, we do not alter the original data distribution, which results in a lower computational cost during the training process. We report the results of our experiments on six major image classification data sets and show that the proposed approach significantly outperforms the baseline algorithms. Comparisons with popular data sampling techniques and CoSen classifiers demonstrate the superior performance of our proposed method. In this paper, a novel inverse random under sampling (IRUS) method is proposed for the class imbalance problem. The main idea is to severely under sample the majority class thus creating a large number of distinct training sets. For each training set we then find a decision boundary which separates the minority class from the majority class. By combining the multiple designs through fusion, we construct a composite boundary between the majority class and the minority class. The proposed methodology is applied on 22 UCI data sets and experimental results indicate a significant increase in performance when compared with many existing class-imbalance learning methods. We also present promising results for multi-label classification, a challenging research problem in many modern applications such as music, text and image categorization. In classification, when the distribution of the training data among classes is uneven, the learning algorithm is generally dominated by the feature of the majority classes. The features in the minority classes are normally difficult to be fully recognized. In this paper, a method is proposed to enhance the classification accuracy for the minority classes. The proposed method combines Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) and Complementary Neural Network (CMTNN) to handle the problem of classifying imbalanced data. In order to demonstrate that the proposed technique can assist classification of imbalanced data, several classification algorithms have been used. They are Artificial Neural Network (ANN), k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). The benchmark data sets with various ratios between the minority class and the majority class are obtained from the University of California Irvine (UCI) machine learning repository. The results show that the proposed combination techniques can improve the performance for the class imbalance problem.
