With the advent of the era of big data, the information from multi-sources often conflicts due to that errors and fake information are inevitable. Therefore, how to obtain the most trustworthy or true information (i.e. truth) people need gradually becomes a troublesome problem. In order to meet this challenge, a novel hot technology named truth discovery that can infer the truth and estimate the reliability of the source without supervision has attracted more and more attention. However, most existing truth discovery methods only consider that the information is either same or different rather than the fine-grained relation between them, such as inclusion, support, mutual exclusion, etc. Actually, this situation frequently exists in real-world applications. To tackle the aforementioned issue, we propose a novel truth discovery method named OTDCR in this paper, which can handle the fine-grained relation between the information and infer the truth more effectively through modeling the relation. In addition, a novel method of processing abnormal values is applied to the preprocessing of truth discovery, which is specially designed for categorical data with the relation. Experiments in real dataset show our method is more effective than several outstanding methods.

Classification is a hot topic in such fields as machine learning and data mining. The traditional approach of machine learning is to find a classifier closest to the real classification function, while ensemble classification is to integrate the results of base classifiers, then make an overall prediction. Compared to using a single classifier, ensemble classification can significantly improve the generalization of the learning system in most cases. However, the existing ensemble classification methods rarely consider the weight of the classifier, and there are few methods to consider updating the weights dynamically. In this paper, we are inspired by the idea of truth discovery and propose a new ensemble classification method based on the truth discovery (named ECTD). As far as we know, we are the first to apply the idea of truth discovery in the field of ensemble learning. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method performs well in ensemble classification.

A blockchain can be taken as a decentralized and distributed public database. In order to achieve data consistency of the system nodes, the execution of a consensus algorithm is necessary and required in the case of decentralized environments. Simply speaking, the consensus is that every node agrees on some record in the blockchain. There are many kinds of consensus algorithms in blockchain environments, and each consensus algorithm has its own proper application scenario. Here we firstly analysis and compare various popular consensus algorithms in blockchain environments, and then as voting theory has systematically studied the decision-making in a group, the traditional methods of voting theory is summarized and listed, including (Position) scoring rules, Copeland, Maximin, Ranked pairs, Voting trees, Bucklin, Plurality with runoff, Single transferable vote, Baldwin rule, and Nanson rule. Finally, we introduce the voting methods from voting theory to consensus algorithms in the blockchain to improve its performance.

Single target tracking has always been a key and challenging research field in computer vision. Currently, an increasing number of researchers are focusing on extracting better tracking features and designing the best tracker. This paper proposes a new single target tracking network that uses fine-grained features and dynamic programming (DPFNet). In order to extract superior features, we added an attention module to the regression network enabling us to extract finer-grained and discriminative features to achieve regression. Besides, we did observe that different objects have varying moving rates; for different moving targets, the magnitude of the changes in target position within two adjacent frames is not the same either. Although an area search of 4 times the target's size can be applied to most objects, targets with large position changes may appear in other image areas outside the search area and the target would not be located as a result. Aiming at solving this problem, when designing the tracker, this paper analyzes some of the indicators for predicting the location and uses the analysis results to determine whether the search area is appropriate, so as to dynamically adjust the extent of the search area thereby significantly improving the tracking function. In other words, the size of the search area can be dynamically recalibrated for different images. Subsequent experiments prove that the method put forward in this paper achieves State-of-the-Art results.

Short text classification methods have achieved significant progress and wide application on text data such as Twitter and Weibo. However, the extremely short chinese texts like tax invoice data are different with traditional short texts in lackness of contextual semantic information, feature sparseness and extremely short length. The existing short text classification methods are difficult to achieve a satisfactory performance in these texts. To address these problems, this paper proposes a text classification method based on bidirectional semantic extension for extremely short texts like Chinese tax invoice data. More specifically, firstly, the Chinese knowledge graph is introduced for extending bidirectional semantic of texts and label data to expand the extremely short texts and ease the problem of feature sparseness; secondly, the hash vectorization is used to avoid the semantic problem caused by the lackness of contextual information. Experimental results conducted the real tax invoice dataset demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.
Embedding large and high dimensional data into low dimensional vector spaces is a necessary task to computationally cope with contemporary data sets. Superseding 'latent semantic analysis' recent approaches li...
