Experiment Research on Feature Selection and Learning Method in Keyphrase Extraction
Keyphrases can provide a brief summary of documents. Keyphrase extraction, defined as automatic selection of important phrases within the body of a document, is important in some fields. Generally the keyphrase extraction process is seen as a classification task, where feature selection and learning model are the key problems. In this paper, different shallow features are surveyed and the commonly used learning methods are compared. The experimental results demonstrate that the detailed survey of shallow features plus a simpler method can more enhance the extraction performance.

Using Proximity in Query Focused Multi-document Extractive Summarization
The query focused multi-document summarization tasks usually tend to answer the queries in the summary. In this paper, we suggest introducing an effective feature which can represent the relation of key terms in the query. Here, we adopt the feature of term proximity commonly used in the field of information retrieval, which has improved the retrieval performance according to the relative position of terms. To resolve the problem of data sparseness and to represent the proximity in the semantic level, concept expansion is conducted based on WordNet. By leveraging the term importance, the proximity feature is further improved and weighted according to the inverse term frequency of terms. The experimental results show that our proposed feature can contribute to improving the summarization performance.

Discovering compact and highly discriminative features or combinations of drug activities using support vector machines
Nowadays, high throughput experimental techniques make it feasible to examine and collect massive data at the molecular level. These data, typically mapped to a very high dimensional feature space, carry rich information about functionalities of certain chemical or biological entities and can be used to infer valuable knowledge for the purposes of classification and prediction. Typically, a small number of features or feature combinations may play determinant roles in functional discrimination. The identification of such features or feature combinations is of great importance. In this paper, we study the problem of discovering compact and highly discriminative features or feature combinations from a rich feature collection. We employ the support vector machine as the classification means and aim at finding compact feature combinations. Comparing to previous methods on feature selection, which identify features solely based on their individual roles in the classification, our method is able to identify minimal feature combinations that ultimately have determinant roles in a systematic fashion. Experimental study on drug activity data shows that our method can discover descriptors that are not necessarily significant individually but are most significant collectively.

Autonomic Intrusion Detection System
We propose a novel framework of autonomic intrusion detection that fulfills online and adaptive intrusion detection in unlabeled audit data streams. The framework owns ability of self-managing: self-labeling, self-updating and self-adapting. Affinity Propagation (AP) uses the framework to learn a subject's behavior through dynamical clustering of the streaming data. The testing results with a large real HTTP log stream demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of the method.

Image Segmentation That Merges Together Boundary and Region Information
Segmentation is a classical yet important problem in vision. Most of the previous works are either region-based or boundary-based. The two approaches own complementary merits - while the region-based one always produces closed boundaries, the boundary-based one involves primarily local operations and avoids the complexity of deciding how homogeneous a region and how inhomogeneous neighboring regions should be. In this paper, we propose a new solution mechanism that makes use of both cues. We use the boundary processing and a particular field model to come up with a number of coarse, initial closed boundaries about the image first. Such coarse boundaries will then, through an adaptation of the Four Color Theorem, serve as the initialization to a level-set method-based minimization that acts on the intensity distribution of the image, and allows the final crispy segmentation result to emerge. Compared with the existing solutions, our method requires no initialization from the user, and the automatically extracted closed contours do provide guidance to derive more optimal and smoother segmentation result. Experimental results with some benchmarking image-sets show that the proposed solution could deliver accurate segmentation boundary.

Attribute Normalization in Network Intrusion Detection
Anomaly intrusion detection is an important issue in computer network security. As a step of data preprocessing, attribute normalization is essential to detection performance. However, many anomaly detection methods do not normalize attributes before training and detection. Few methods consider to normalize the attributes but the question of which normalization method is more effective still remains. In this paper, we introduce four different schemes of attribute normalization to preprocess the data for anomaly intrusion detection. Three methods, k-NN, PCA as well as SVM, are then employed on the normalized data for comparison of the detection results. KDD Cup 1999 data are used to evaluate the normalization schemes and the detection methods. The systematical evaluation results show that the process of attribute normalization improves a lot the detection performance. The statistical normalization scheme is the best choice for detection if the data set is large.

XParent: an efficient RDBMS-Based XML database system
Presents, XParent, an XML document management system built on top of RDBMS. It is based on an efficient, model-mapping-based approach that uses a fixed database schema to store any XML documents without assistance of DTD. The visual query interface of XParent provides both expressive power for professionals and user friendliness for naive users. The proposed multi-level query translation scheme makes it possible to develop a generic XML application that supports multiple XML query languages and mapping schemas.
