Cross-domain Sequential Recommendation (CSR) which leverages user sequence data from multiple domains has received extensive attention in recent years. However, the existing CSR methods require sharing origin user data across domains, which violates the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Thus, it is necessary to combine federated learning (FL) and CSR to fully utilize knowledge from different domains while preserving data privacy. Nonetheless, the sequence feature heterogeneity across different domains significantly impacts the overall performance of FL. In this paper, we propose FedDCSR, a novel federated cross-domain sequential recommendation framework via disentangled representation learning. Specifically, to address the sequence feature heterogeneity across domains, we introduce an approach called inter-intra domain sequence representation disentanglement (SRD) to disentangle the user sequence features into domain-shared and domain-exclusive features. In addition, we design an intra domain contrastive infomax (CIM) strategy to learn richer domain-exclusive features of users by performing data augmentation on user sequences. Extensive experiments on three real-world scenarios demonstrate that FedDCSR achieves significant improvements over existing baselines.

Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) have emerged as tools to facilitate the management of software dependencies, vulnerabilities, licenses, and the supply chain. While significant effort has been devoted to increasing SBOM awareness and developing SBOM formats and tools, recent studies have shown that SBOMs are still an early technology not yet adequately adopted in practice. Expanding on previous research, this paper reports a comprehensive study that investigates the current challenges stakeholders encounter when creating and using SBOMs. The study surveyed 138 practitioners belonging to five stakeholder groups (practitioners familiar with SBOMs, members of critical open source projects, AI/ML, cyber-physical systems, and legal practitioners) using differentiated questionnaires, and interviewed 8 survey respondents to gather further insights about their experience. We identified 12 major challenges facing the creation and use of SBOMs, including those related to the SBOM content, deficiencies in SBOM tools, SBOM maintenance and verification, and domain-specific challenges. We propose and discuss 4 actionable solutions to the identified challenges and present the major avenues for future research and development.

WikiHow is an open-domain repository of instructional articles for a variety of tasks, which can be revised by users. In this paper, we extract pairwise versions of an instruction before and after a revision was made. Starting from a noisy dataset of revision histories, we specifically extract and analyze edits that involve cases of vagueness in instructions. We further investigate the ability of a neural model to distinguish between two versions of an instruction in our data by adopting a pairwise ranking task from previous work and showing improvements over existing baselines.

The recent advancement of Blockchain technology consolidates its status as a viable alternative for various domains. However, evaluating the performance of blockchain applications can be challenging due to the underlying infrastructure's complexity and distributed nature. Therefore, a reliable modelling approach is needed to boost Blockchain-based applications' development and evaluation. While simulation-based solutions have been researched, machine learning (ML) model-based techniques are rarely discussed in conjunction with evaluating blockchain application performance. Our novel research makes use of two ML model-based methods. Firstly, we train a $k$ nearest neighbour ($k$NN) and support vector machine (SVM) to predict blockchain performance using predetermined configuration parameters. Secondly, we employ the salp swarm optimization (SO) ML model which enables the investigation of optimal blockchain configurations for achieving the required performance level. We use rough set theory to enhance SO, hereafter called ISO, which we demonstrate to prove achieving an accurate recommendation of optimal parameter configurations; despite uncertainty. Finally, statistical comparisons indicate that our models have a competitive edge. The $k$NN model outperforms SVM by 5\% and the ISO also demonstrates a reduction of 4\% inaccuracy deviation compared to regular SO.

Across various domains, data from different sources such as Baidu Baike and Wikipedia often manifest in distinct forms. Current entity matching methodologies predominantly focus on homogeneous data, characterized by attributes that share the same structure and concise attribute values. However, this orientation poses challenges in handling data with diverse formats. Moreover, prevailing approaches aggregate the similarity of attribute values between corresponding attributes to ascertain entity similarity. Yet, they often overlook the intricate interrelationships between attributes, where one attribute may have multiple associations. The simplistic approach of pairwise attribute comparison fails to harness the wealth of information encapsulated within entities.To address these challenges, we introduce a novel entity matching model, dubbed Entity Matching Model for Capturing Complex Attribute Relationships(EMM-CCAR),built upon pre-trained models. Specifically, this model transforms the matching task into a sequence matching problem to mitigate the impact of varying data formats. Moreover, by introducing attention mechanisms, it identifies complex relationships between attributes, emphasizing the degree of matching among multiple attributes rather than one-to-one correspondences. Through the integration of the EMM-CCAR model, we adeptly surmount the challenges posed by data heterogeneity and intricate attribute interdependencies. In comparison with the prevalent DER-SSM and Ditto approaches, our model achieves improvements of approximately 4% and 1% in F1 scores, respectively. This furnishes a robust solution for addressing the intricacies of attribute complexity in entity matching.

On open source software (OSS) platforms such as GitHub, forking and accepting pull-requests is an important approach for OSS projects to receive contributions, especially from external contributors who cannot directly commit into the source repositories. Having a large number of forks is often considered as an indicator of a project being popular. While extensive studies have been conducted to understand the reasons of forking, communications between forks, features and impacts of forks, there are few quantitative measures that can provide a simple yet informative way to gain insights about an OSS project's forks besides their count. Inspired by studies on biodiversity and OSS team diversity, in this paper, we propose an approach to measure the diversity of an OSS project's forks (i.e., its fork population). We devise a novel fork entropy metric based on Rao's quadratic entropy to measure such diversity according to the forks' modifications to project files. With properties including symmetry, continuity, and monotonicity, the proposed fork entropy metric is effective in quantifying the diversity of a project's fork population. To further examine the usefulness of the proposed metric, we conduct empirical studies with data retrieved from fifty projects on GitHub. We observe significant correlations between a project's fork entropy and different outcome variables including the project's external productivity measured by the number of external contributors' commits, acceptance rate of external contributors' pull-requests, and the number of reported bugs. We also observe significant interactions between fork entropy and other factors such as the number of forks. The results suggest that fork entropy effectively enriches our understanding of OSS projects' forks beyond the simple number of forks, and can potentially support further research and applications.

The Pretrained Foundation Models (PFMs) are regarded as the foundation for various downstream tasks with different data modalities. A pretrained foundation model, such as BERT, GPT-3, MAE, DALLE-E, and ChatGPT, is trained on large-scale data which provides a reasonable parameter initialization for a wide range of downstream applications. The idea of pretraining behind PFMs plays an important role in the application of large models. Different from previous methods that apply convolution and recurrent modules for feature extractions, the generative pre-training (GPT) method applies Transformer as the feature extractor and is trained on large datasets with an autoregressive paradigm. Similarly, the BERT apples transformers to train on large datasets as a contextual language model. Recently, the ChatGPT shows promising success on large language models, which applies an autoregressive language model with zero shot or few show prompting. With the extraordinary success of PFMs, AI has made waves in a variety of fields over the past few years. Considerable methods, datasets, and evaluation metrics have been proposed in the literature, the need is raising for an updated survey. This study provides a comprehensive review of recent research advancements, current and future challenges, and opportunities for PFMs in text, image, graph, as well as other data modalities. We first review the basic components and existing pretraining in natural language processing, computer vision, and graph learning. We then discuss other advanced PFMs for other data modalities and unified PFMs considering the data quality and quantity. Besides, we discuss relevant research about the fundamentals of the PFM, including model efficiency and compression, security, and privacy. Finally, we lay out key implications, future research directions, challenges, and open problems.

Many modern data analytics applications on graphs operate on domains where graph topology is not known a priori, and hence its determination becomes part of the problem definition, rather than serving as prior knowledge which aids the problem solution. Part III of this monograph starts by addressing ways to learn graph topology, from the case where the physics of the problem already suggest a possible topology, through to most general cases where the graph topology is learned from the data. A particular emphasis is on graph topology definition based on the correlation and precision matrices of the observed data, combined with additional prior knowledge and structural conditions, such as the smoothness or sparsity of graph connections. For learning sparse graphs (with small number of edges), the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator, known as LASSO is employed, along with its graph specific variant, graphical LASSO. For completeness, both variants of LASSO are derived in an intuitive way, and explained. An in-depth elaboration of the graph topology learning paradigm is provided through several examples on physically well defined graphs, such as electric circuits, linear heat transfer, social and computer networks, and spring-mass systems. As many graph neural networks (GNN) and convolutional graph networks (GCN) are emerging, we have also reviewed the main trends in GNNs and GCNs, from the perspective of graph signal filtering. Tensor representation of lattice-structured graphs is next considered, and it is shown that tensors (multidimensional data arrays) are a special class of graph signals, whereby the graph vertices reside on a high-dimensional regular lattice structure. This part of monograph concludes with two emerging applications in financial data processing and underground transportation networks modeling.

In many real-world network datasets such as co-authorship, co-citation, email communication, etc., relationships are complex and go beyond pairwise. Hypergraphs provide a flexible and natural modeling tool to model such complex relationships. The obvious existence of such complex relationships in many real-world networks naturaly motivates the problem of learning with hypergraphs. A popular learning paradigm is hypergraph-based semi-supervised learning (SSL) where the goal is to assign labels to initially unlabeled vertices in a hypergraph. Motivated by the fact that a graph convolutional network (GCN) has been effective for graph-based SSL, we propose HyperGCN, a novel GCN for SSL on attributed hypergraphs. Additionally, we show how HyperGCN can be used as a learning-based approach for combinatorial optimisation on NP-hard hypergraph problems. We demonstrate HyperGCN's effectiveness through detailed experimentation on real-world hypergraphs.

In recent years, DBpedia, Freebase, OpenCyc, Wikidata, and YAGO have been published as noteworthy large, cross-domain, and freely available knowledge graphs. Although extensively in use, these knowledge graphs are hard to compare against each other in a given setting. Thus, it is a challenge for researchers and developers to pick the best knowledge graph for their individual needs. In our recent survey, we devised and applied data quality criteria to the above-mentioned knowledge graphs. Furthermore, we proposed a framework for finding the most suitable knowledge graph for a given setting. With this paper we intend to ease the access to our in-depth survey by presenting simplified rules that map individual data quality requirements to specific knowledge graphs. However, this paper does not intend to replace our previously introduced decision-support framework. For an informed decision on which KG is best for you we still refer to our in-depth survey.
