We revisit the long-standing problem of providing network QoS to applications, and propose the concept of judicious QoS -- combining the cheaper, best effort IP service with the cloud, which offers a highly reliable infrastructure and the…
This paper presents a brief review of some existing correlation models which attempt to map Quality of Service (QoS) to Quality of Experience (QoE) for multimedia services. The term QoS refers to deterministic network behaviour, so that…
Reliable outlier detection in high-dimensional data is crucial in modern science, yet it remains a challenging task. Traditional methods often break down in these settings due to their reliance on asymptotic behaviors with respect to sample…
As the homogenization of Web services becomes more and more common, the difficulty of service recommendation is gradually increasing. How to predict Quality of Service (QoS) more efficiently and accurately becomes an important challenge for…
Autoscaling is a critical component for efficient resource utilization with satisfactory quality of service (QoS) in cloud computing. This paper investigates proactive autoscaling for widely-used scaling-per-query applications where scaling…
As competitiveness increases, being able to guaranting QoS of delivered services is key for business success. It is thus of paramount importance the ability to continuously monitor the workflow providing a service and to timely recognize…
We propose a novel framework to select IaaS providers according to a consumer's long-term performance requirements. The proposed framework leverages free short-term trials to discover the unknown QoS performance of IaaS providers. We design…
Recent advances in software, hardware, computing and control have fueled significant progress in the field of autonomous systems. Notably, autonomous machines should continuously estimate how the scenario in which they move and operate will…
This study addresses an important gap in time series outlier detection by proposing a novel problem setting: long-term outlier prediction. Conventional methods primarily focus on immediate detection by identifying deviations from normal…
Outlier detection is a fundamental task in data mining and has many applications including detecting errors in databases. While there has been extensive prior work on methods for outlier detection, modern datasets often have sizes that are…
Quality of Service (QoS) techniques are applied in IP networks to utilize available network resources in the most efficient manner to minimize delays and delay variations (jitters) in network traffic having multiple type of services.…
We consider the problem of learning from noisy data in practical settings where the size of data is too large to store on a single machine. More challenging, the data coming from the wild may contain malicious outliers. To address the…
A rapid increase in the video traffic together with an increasing demand for higher quality videos has put a significant load on content delivery networks in the recent years. Due to the relatively limited delivery infrastructure, the video…
Quality of Service (QoS) is now regarded as a requirement for all networks in managing resources like bandwidth and avoidance of network impairments like packet loss, jitter, and delay. Media transfer or streaming would be virtually…
Often the challenge associated with tasks like fraud and spam detection[1] is the lack of all likely patterns needed to train suitable supervised learning models. In order to overcome this limitation, such tasks are attempted as outlier or…
An outlier is an observation or a data point that is far from rest of the data points in a given dataset or we can be said that an outlier is away from the center of mass of observations. Presence of outliers can skew statistical measures…
Many cloud service providers (CSPs) provide on-demand service at a price with a small delay. We propose a QoS-differentiated model where multiple SLAs deliver both on-demand service for latency-critical users and delayed services for…
We study two problems in high-dimensional robust statistics: \emph{robust mean estimation} and \emph{outlier detection}. In robust mean estimation the goal is to estimate the mean $\mu$ of a distribution on $\mathbb{R}^d$ given $n$…
Revenue management strongly relies on accurate forecasts. Thus, when extraordinary events cause outlier demand, revenue management systems need to recognise this and adapt both forecast and controls. Many passenger transport service…
This paper develops robust inference methods for predictive regressions that address key challenges posed by endogenously persistent or heavy-tailed regressors, as well as persistent volatility in errors. Building on the Cauchy estimation…
