Counterfactual explanations (CEs) are emerging as a crucial tool in Explainable AI (XAI) for understanding model decisions. This research investigates the impact of various factors on the quality of CEs generated for classification tasks. We explore how inter-class distance, data imbalance, balancing techniques, the presence of biased...

Intrusion detection systems (IDSs) are essential for protecting computer systems and networks from malicious attacks. However, IDSs face challenges in dealing with dynamic and imbalanced data, as well as limited label availability. In this thesis, we propose a novel elastic gradient boosting decision tree algorithm, namely Elastic CatBoost...

Bacterial identification is crucial for addressing infectious diseases and enabling effective treatment strategies. Conventional bacteria identification methods like MALDI-TOF, while efficient, lack the capability for screening the effectiveness of antibiotics. On the other hand, existing antimicrobial resistance (AMR) tests, despite being...

Federated learning is a privacy-enforcing machine learning technology but suffers from limited scalability. This limitation mostly originates from the internet connection and memory capacity of the central parameter server, and the complexity of the model aggregation function. Decentralized learning has recently been emerging as a promising...

Smartwatches are equipped with sensors that allow continuous monitoring of physiological and physical activities, making them ideal sources of data for data analysis. However, accurately identifying individuals based on smartwatch data can be challenging due to the presence of outliers. Hence, outlier detection techniques play a crucial part in...

This paper presents a comparative study of multiple algorithms that can be used to automatically search for high-performing pipelines on machine learning problems. These algorithms, namely Very Large-Scale Neighbourhood search (VLSN), Breadth-first search, Metropolis-Hastings, Monte-Carlo tree search (MCTS), enumerative A* search, and Genetic...

In AutoML, the search space of possible pipelines is often large and multidimensional. This makes it very important to use an efficient search algorithm. We measure the effectiveness of the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm (M-H) in a pipeline synthesis framework, when the search space is described by a context-free grammar. We also compare the...

Cardiovascular diseases are one of the primary causes of mortality worldwide. Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation is a specific type that is difficult to detect and diagnose in a short time frame. To overcome this, we investigated if long-term wearable data can be used for the detection of heart diseases. The BigIdeasLab_STEP dataset and long-term...

Established research that is done on finding similarities between two finite automata, or finite state machines, is based on matching symbols that are shared between the two automata. In our research, we define a scenario in which the shared alphabet is either partially or completely obscured due to translations. We emulate a scenario where 2...

Electrocardiography is the craft of producing electrocardiograms. These graphs give physicians insight into the potential pathology of the heart. In order to come to a diagnosis, physicians use electrocardiograms in combination with follow-up physical examinations. There has been extensive research into automated methods that can differentiate...

Small UAVs and in particular the class of micro-UAVs, whose mass is below 2 kg, are constantly rising in popularity for personal as well as professional use, since they are beneficial in many fields such as defense, transportation, monitoring and agriculture. In spite of their advantages, UAVs can be used for terrorist attacks to fly over...

In image search, an algorithm tries to identify images in a database that are similar to a query image. Image search has numerous applications. For example, image search can help historians find images of a historical building from a large image database of buildings worldwide. Feature extraction and nearest neighbors methods are standard steps...

District heating systems (DHSs) have the potential to play a big part in the energy transition. The efficient operation of DHSs is therefore also an important subject of study. The operation of DHSs where combined heat and power (CHP) plants are used are particularly interesting, because CHPs can operate with high efficiency.<br/><br/>In this...

Even though the abaility to recommend items in the long tail is one of the main strengths of recommendation systems, modern models still show decreased performance when recommending these niche items. Various bipartite and tripartite graph-based models have been proposed that are specifically tailored to solving this long tail issue. This study...

Recommender Systems play a significant part in filtering and efficiently prioritizing relevant information to alleviate the information overload problem and maximize user engagement. Traditional recommender systems employ a static approach towards learning the user's preferences, relying on logged previous interactions with the system,...

This paper offers a prototype of a smart-contract-based encryption scheme meant to improve the security of user data being uploaded to the ledger. A new extension to the self-encryption scheme was introduced by integrating identity into the encryption process. Such integration allows to permanently preserve ownership of the original file and...
