Abstract Turbo codes came closest to the Shannon limit. They can be built on the basis of both block and convolutional codes. When decoding a block code using a syndrome lattice, it is possible to use well-studied algorithms for decoding convolutional codes with soft input and soft output. This publication demonstrates the application of the maximum a posteriori information decoding algorithm. The process of decoding a code sequence of a turbo code generated by an encoder consisting of two encoders of a block code and an interleaving device, in the presence of three errors in the received code word, is considered in detail.

In recent years, with the rapid development of the Internet and information technology, video websites, shopping websites, and other portals have grown rapidly. However, malicious webpages can disguise themselves as benign websites and steal users’ private information, which seriously threatens network security. Current detection methods for malicious webpages do not fully utilize the syntactic and semantic information in the web source code. In this paper, we propose a GCN-based malicious webpage detection method (GMWD), which constructs a text graph to describe and then a GCN model to learn the syntactic and semantic correlations within and between webpage source codes. We replace word nodes in the text graph with phrase nodes to better maintain the syntactic and semantic integrity of the webpage source code. In addition, we use the URL links appearing in the source code as auxiliary detection information to further improve the detection accuracy. The experiments showed that the proposed method can achieve 99.86% accuracy and a 0.137% false negative rate, achieving a better performance than other related malicious webpage detection methods.

In the modern wireless communication system, digital technology has tremendous growth, and all the communication channels are slowly moving towards digital form. Wireless communication has to provide the reliable and efficient transfer of information between transmitter and receiver over a wireless channel. The channel coding technique is the best practical approach to delivering reliable communication for the end-users. Many conventional encoder and decoder units are used as error detection and correction codes in the digital communication system to overcome the multiple transient errors. The proposed convolutional encoder consists of both Recursive Systematic Convolutional (RSC) Encoder and Adaptive Variable-Rate Convolutional (AVRC) encoder. Adaptive Variable-Rate Convolutional encoder improves the bit error rate performance and is more suitable for a power-constrained wireless system to transfer the data. Recursive Systematic Convolutional encoder also reduces the bit error rate and improves the throughput by employing the trellis termination strategy. Here, AVRC encoder ultimately acquires the channel state information and feeds the data into a fixed rate convolutional encoder and rate adaptor followed by a buffer device. A hybrid encoder combines the AVRC encoder and RSC encoder output serially and parallel, producing the solid encoded data for the modulator in the communication system. A modified turbo code is also obtained by placing interleaver between the two encoder units and building the stronger code word for the system. Finally, the conventional encoder system is compared and analyzed with the proposed method regarding the number of LUT’s, gates, clock cycle, slices, area, power, bit error rate, and throughput.

Excited by ground-breaking progress in automatic code generation, machine translation, and computer vision, further simplify web design workflow by making it easier and productive. A Model architecture is proposed for the generation of static web templates from hand-drawn images. The model pipeline uses the word-embedding technique succeeded by long short-term memory (LSTM) for code snippet prediction. Also, canny edge detection algorithm fitted with VGG19 convolutional neural net (CNN) and attention-based LSTM for web template generation. Extracted features are concatenated, and a terminal LSTM with a SoftMax function is called for final prediction. The proposed model is validated with a benchmark based on the BLUE score, and performance improvement is compared with the existing image generation algorithms.

In recent years, the software industry has invested substantial effort to improve software quality in organizations. Applying proactive software defect prediction will help developers and white box testers to find the defects earlier, and this will reduce the time and effort. Traditional software defect prediction models concentrate on traditional features of source code including code complexity, lines of code, etc. However, these features fail to extract the semantics of source code. In this research, we propose a hybrid model that is called CBIL. CBIL can predict the defective areas of source code. It extracts Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) tokens as vectors from source code. Mapping and word embedding turn integer vectors into dense vectors. Then, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) extracts the semantics of AST tokens. After that, Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) keeps key features and ignores other features in order to enhance the accuracy of software defect prediction. The proposed model CBIL is evaluated on a sample of seven open-source Java projects of the PROMISE dataset. CBIL is evaluated by applying the following evaluation metrics: F-measure and area under the curve (AUC). The results display that CBIL model improves the average of F-measure by 25% compared to CNN, as CNN accomplishes the top performance among the selected baseline models. In average of AUC, CBIL model improves AUC by 18% compared to Recurrent Neural Network (RNN), as RNN accomplishes the top performance among the selected baseline models used in the experiments.

The International Statistical Classification of Disease and Related Health Problems (ICD) is an international standard system for categorizing and reporting diseases, injuries, disorders, and health conditions. Most previously-proposed disease predicting systems need clinical information collected by the medical staff from the patients in hospitals. In this paper, we propose a deep learning algorithm to classify disease types and identify diagnostic codes by using only the subjective component of progress notes in medical records. In this study, we have a dataset, consisting of about one hundred and sixty-eight thousand medical records, from a medical center, collected during 2003 and 2017. First, we apply standard text processing procedures to parse the sentences and word embedding techniques for vector representations. Next, we build a convolution neural network model on the medical records to predict the ICD-9 code by using a subjective component of the progress note. The prediction performance is evaluated by ten-fold cross-validation and yields an accuracy of 0.409, recall of 0.409 and precision of 0.436. If we only consider the “chapter match” of ICD-9 code, our model achieves an accuracy of 0.580, recall of 0.580, and precision of 0.582. Since our diagnostic code prediction model is solely based on subjective components (mainly, patients’ self-report descriptions), the proposed approach could serve as a remote and self-diagnosis assistance tool, prior to seeking medical advice or going to the hospital. In addition, our work may be used as a primary evaluation tool for discomfort in the rural area where medical resources are restricted.

Domain-specific goal-oriented dialogue systems typically require modeling three types of inputs, namely, (i) the knowledge-base associated with the domain, (ii) the history of the conversation, which is a sequence of utterances, and (iii) the current utterance for which the response needs to be generated. While modeling these inputs, current state-of-the-art models such as Mem2Seq typically ignore the rich structure inherent in the knowledge graph and the sentences in the conversation context. Inspired by the recent success of structure-aware Graph Convolutional Networks (GCNs) for various NLP tasks such as machine translation, semantic role labeling, and document dating, we propose a memory-augmented GCN for goal-oriented dialogues. Our model exploits (i) the entity relation graph in a knowledge-base and (ii) the dependency graph associated with an utterance to compute richer representations for words and entities. Further, we take cognizance of the fact that in certain situations, such as when the conversation is in a code-mixed language, dependency parsers may not be available. We show that in such situations we could use the global word co-occurrence graph to enrich the representations of utterances. We experiment with four datasets: (i) the modified DSTC2 dataset, (ii) recently released code-mixed versions of DSTC2 dataset in four languages, (iii) Wizard-of-Oz style CAM676 dataset, and (iv) Wizard-of-Oz style MultiWOZ dataset. On all four datasets our method outperforms existing methods, on a wide range of evaluation metrics.

Despite substantial interest in applications of neural networks to information retrieval, neural ranking models have mostly been applied to “standard” ad hoc retrieval tasks over web pages and newswire articles. This paper proposes MP-HCNN (Multi-Perspective Hierarchical Convolutional Neural Network), a novel neural ranking model specifically designed for ranking short social media posts. We identify document length, informal language, and heterogeneous relevance signals as features that distinguish documents in our domain, and present a model specifically designed with these characteristics in mind. Our model uses hierarchical convolutional layers to learn latent semantic soft-match relevance signals at the character, word, and phrase levels. A poolingbased similarity measurement layer integrates evidence from multiple types of matches between the query, the social media post, as well as URLs contained in the post. Extensive experiments using Twitter data from the TREC Microblog Tracks 2011–2014 show that our model significantly outperforms prior feature-based as well as existing neural ranking models. To our best knowledge, this paper presents the first substantial work tackling search over social media posts using neural ranking models. Our code and data are publicly available.1

This study focuses on the automatic decoding of inner speech using noninvasive methods, such as Electroencephalography (EEG). While inner speech has been a research topic in philosophy and psychology for half a century, recent attempts have been made to decode nonvoiced spoken words by using various brain–computer interfaces. The main shortcomings of existing work are reproducibility and the availability of data and code. In this work, we investigate various methods (using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), Long Short-Term Memory Networks (LSTM)) for the detection task of five vowels and six words on a publicly available EEG dataset. The main contributions of this work are (1) subject dependent vs. subject-independent approaches, (2) the effect of different preprocessing steps (Independent Component Analysis (ICA), down-sampling and filtering), and (3) word classification (where we achieve state-of-the-art performance on a publicly available dataset). Overall we achieve a performance accuracy of 35.20% and 29.21% when classifying five vowels and six words, respectively, in a publicly available dataset, using our tuned iSpeech-CNN architecture. All of our code and processed data are publicly available to ensure reproducibility. As such, this work contributes to a deeper understanding and reproducibility of experiments in the area of inner speech detection.

Irregular text has widespread applications in multiple areas. Different from regular text, irregular text is difficult to recognize because of its various shapes and distorted patterns. In this paper, we develop a multidirectional convolutional neural network (MCN) to extract four direction features to fully describe the textual information. Meanwhile, the character placement possibility is extracted as the weight of the four direction features. Based on these works, we propose the encoder to fuse the four direction features for the generation of feature code to predict the character sequence. The whole network is end-to-end trainable due to using images and word-level labels. The experiments on standard benchmarks, including the IIIT-5K, SVT, CUTE80, and ICDAR datasets, demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method on both regular and irregular datasets. The developed method shows an increase of 1.2% in the CUTE80 dataset and 1.5% in the SVT dataset, and has fewer parameters than most existing methods.

Le contexte de cette thèse est la reconnaissance de systèmes de communication dans un contexte non coopératif. Nous nous intéressons au problème de la reconstruction de codes convolutifs et à la reconstruction du mapping (la bijection utilisée pour associer une séquence binaire à un signal modulé). Nous avons élaboré une nouvelle méthode statistique qui à partir d'une séquence binaire bruitée observée permet de détecter si une séquence binaire est codée par un codeur convolutif. Cette méthode consiste à former des blocs de séquence suffisamment grands pour contenir le support d'une équation de parité et à compter le nombre de blocs identiques. Elle a l'avantage de fournir la longueur du code utilisé lorsque le mapping est inconnu. Cette méthode peut également être utilisée pour reconstruire le dual d'un code convolutif lorsque le mapping est connu. Nous proposons par ailleurs un algorithme de reconnaissance de mapping basé sur le parcours de classes d'équivalences. Deux types de classes sont définies. Nous disposons d'un signal bruité partiellement démodulé (démodulé avec un mapping par défaut) et supposons que les données sont codées par un codeur convolutif. Nous utilisons la reconnaissance d'un tel code comme testeur et parcourons enfin les classes d'équivalences faisant apparaître une structure de codes convolutifs. Cette classification améliore la complexité de la recherche pour les petites constellations (4 et 8-PSK). Dans le cas des constellations 16 à 256-QAM l'algorithme est appliqué aux mappings Gray ou quasi-Gray. L'algorithme ne fournit pas un résultat unique mais il permet de trouver un ensemble de mappings possibles à partir de données bruitées
The context of this thesis is the recognition of communication systems in a non-cooperative context. We are interested in the convolutional code reconstruction problem and in the constellation labeling reconstruction (the mapping used to associate a binary sequence to a modulated signal). We have defined a new statistical method for detecting if a given binary sequence is a noisy convolutional code-word obtained from an unknown convolutional code. It consists in forming blocks of sequence which are big enough to contain the support of a parity check equation and counting the number of blocks which are equal. It gives the length of the convolutional code without knowledge of the constellation labeling. This method can also be used to reconstruct the dual of a convolutional code when the constellation labeling is known. Moreover we propose a constellation labeling recognition algorithm using some equivalence classes. Two types of classes are defined: linear and affine. We observe a noisy signal which is partially demodulated (with a default labeling) and assume that the data are coded by a convolutional encoder. Thus we use the reconstruction of a code as a test and run through the classes which reveal a code structure. This classification improves the complexity of the search for small constellations (4-PSK and 8-PSK). In case of 16-QAM to 256-QAM constellations we apply the algorithm to Gray or quasi-Gray labelings. The algorithm does not give a unique result but it allows to find a small set of possible constellation labelings from noisy data

Reviews have been commonly used to alleviate the sparsity problem in recommender systems, which has significantly improved the recommender performance. The review-based recommender systems can extract users features and items from review texts. The existing models such as D-Attn and NARRE employ convolutional neural networks and a coarse-grained attention mechanism to code reviews that have been embedded using the static word embedding, ignoring the long distance text information and lacks interpretability. To overcome these problems, this paper proposes the DNRDR (Dual-feature Neural Recommender with Dual-attention using Reviews) model, which can extract dual features of review text and can also enhance the interpretability using the word-level and review-level attention mechanisms. The proposed model is verified by experiments and compared with the state-of-the-art models. Besides, the dual-level attention mechanism can be visualized to improve interpretability.
