In this short communication we introduce the quick clustering algorithm (QUIST), an efficient hierarchical clustering algorithm based on sorting. QUIST is a poly-logarithmic divisive clustering algorithm that does not assume the number of…
Understanding searchers' queries is an essential component of semantic search systems. In many cases, search queries involve specific attributes of an entity in a knowledge base (KB), which can be further used to find query answers. In this…
The current strong divide between applications and the network control plane is desirable for many reasons; but a downside is that the network is kept in the dark regarding the ultimate purposes and intentions of applications and, as a…
In this paper, we propose a novel user-cell association approach for wireless small cell networks that exploits previously unexplored context information extracted from users' devices, i.e., user equipments (UEs). Beyond characterizing…
The paper presents a methodology of transmitting voice in SMS (Short Message Service) over GSM network. Usually SMS contents are text based and limited to 140 bytes. It supports national and international roaming, but also supported by…
Identifying the target types of entity-bearing queries can help improve retrieval performance as well as the overall search experience. In this work, we address the problem of automatically detecting the target types of a query with respect…
The GSM network with the greatest worldwide number of users, succumbs to several security vulnerabilities. The short message service (SMS) is one of its superior and well-tried services with a global availability in the GSM networks. The…
In this paper, we introduce the use of Semantic Hashing as embedding for the task of Intent Classification and achieve state-of-the-art performance on three frequently used benchmarks. Intent Classification on a small dataset is a…
When interacting with objects through cameras, or pictures, users often have a specific intent. For example, they may want to perform a visual search. With most object detection models relying on image pixels as their sole input, undesired…
Query-aware webpage snippet extraction is widely used in search engines to help users better understand the content of the returned webpages before clicking. Although important, it is very rarely studied. In this paper, we propose an…
With this work, we describe the concept of intent-based query rewriting and present a first viable solution. The aim is to allow rewrites to alter the structure and syntactic outcome of an original query while keeping the obtainable…
Edge computing provides the ability to link distributor users for multimedia content, while retaining the power of significant data storage and access at a centralized computer. Two requirements of significance include: what information…
The Spatial Pattern Matching (SPM) query allows for the retrieval of Points of Interest (POIs) based on spatial patterns defined by keywords and distance criteria. However, it does not consider the connectivity between POIs. In this study,…
The paper presents a quality of service aware routing protocol which provides low latency for high priority packets. Packets are differentiated based on their priority by applying queuing theory. Low priority packets are transferred through…
Rule-Based Systems have been in use for decades to solve a variety of problems but not in the sensor informatics domain. Rules aid the aggregation of low-level sensor readings to form a more complete picture of the real world and help to…
Query understanding in Conversational Information Seeking (CIS) involves accurately interpreting user intent through context-aware interactions. This includes resolving ambiguities, refining queries, and adapting to evolving information…
Text phish messages, referred to as Smishing is a type of social engineering attack where fake text messages are created, and used to lure users into responding to those messages. These messages aim to obtain user credentials, install…
Context-aware applications have been gaining huge interest in the last few years. With cell phones becoming ubiquitous computing devices, cell phone localization has become an important research problem. In this paper, we present CellSense,…
The problem is area-restricted search for targets using an autonomous mobile sensing platform. Detection is imperfect: the probability of detection depends on the range to the target, while the probability of false detections is non-zero.…
This work is an implementation of a multifactor authentication SMS based result checking system. The objectives of this work were to improve on the available authentication methods and apply it on examination result checking system. The…
