Construction inspection is a crucial stage that ensures that all contractual requirements of a construction project are verified. The construction inspection capabilities among state highway agencies have been greatly affected due to budget reduction. As a result, efficient inspection practices such as risk-based inspection are required to optimize the use of limited resources without compromising inspection quality. Automated prioritization of textual requirements according to their criticality would be extremely helpful since contractual requirements are typically presented in an unstructured natural language in voluminous text documents. The current study introduces a novel model for predicting the risk level of requirements using machine learning (ML) algorithms. The ML algorithms tested in this study included naïve Bayes, support vector machines, logistic regression, and random forest. The training data includes sequences of requirement texts which were labeled with risk levels (such as very low, low, medium, high, very high) using the fuzzy logic systems. The fuzzy model treats the three risk factors (severity, probability, detectability) as fuzzy input variables, and implements the fuzzy inference rules to determine the labels of requirements. The performance of the model was examined on labeled dataset created by fuzzy inference rules and three different membership functions. The developed requirement risk prediction model yielded a precision, recall, and f-score of 78.18%, 77.75%, and 75.82%, respectively. The proposed model is expected to provide construction inspectors with a means for the automated prioritization of voluminous requirements by their importance, thus help to maximize the effectiveness of inspection activities under resource constraints.

Analyzing network traffic is the basis of dealing with network security issues. Most of the network security systems depend on the feature selection of network traffic data and the detection ability of malicious traffic in network can be improved by the correct method of feature selection. An FAFS method, which is short for Fuzzy Association Feature Selection method, is proposed in this paper for network malicious traffic detection. Association rules, which can reflect the relationship among different characteristic attributes of network traffic data, are mined by association analysis. The membership value of association rules are obtained by the calculation of fuzzy reasoning. The data features with the highest correlation intensity in network data sets are calculated by comparing the membership values in association rules. The dimension of data features are reduced and the detection ability of malicious traffic detection algorithm in network is improved by FAFS method. To verify the effect of malicious traffic feature selection by FAFS method, FAFS method is used to select data features of different dataset in this paper. Then, K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm, C4.5 Decision Tree algorithm and Naïve Bayes algorithm are used to test on the dataset above. Moreover, FAFS method is also compared with classical feature selection methods. The analysis of experimental results show that the precision and recall rate of malicious traffic detection in the network can be significantly improved by FAFS method, which provides a valuable reference for the establishment of network security system.

웹 문서를 분류하는 목적은 특정 주제별로 중요한 문서들을 구분하려는 것과 사용자의 선호도를 바탕으로 개인화를 하려는 것으로 나누어 볼 수 있다. 특히, 웹의 효율적인 탐색을 위해 사용자가 관심 있어 할 웹 문서를 분류하는 것은 중요하다 일반적으로 하나의 웹 문서는 특징 추출방법에 의해 문서 벡터로 표시되며 사용자의 선호여부나 주제번호를 클래스로 삼는다. 사용자가 선호도를 표시한 웹 문서를 사용하여 새로운 웹 문서의 선호 여부를 예측하기 위해 자기 구성지도(SOM)를 사용하면, 시각적으로 구조를 보여주어 데이터 사이의 관계를 효과적으로 이해할 수 있다. 그러나 SOM은 노드의 개수와 구조를 자동적으로 결정하지 못하는 단점이 있기 때문에, SOM의 장점을 활용하면서 자동적으로 구조를 결정하기 위해 구조적응 자기구성지도(SASOM)를 이용한다. 보다 나은 성능과 다양한 해석을 위해, 여러 개의 SASOM을 서로 다른 특징추출 방법을 이용하여 학습시킨 후 사용자가 주관적으로 분류기의 중요도를 결정할 수 있는 퍼지적분을 사용하여 결합하였다. UCI Syskill & Webert 데이터에 대한 실험결과 기존의 DT, MLP, naive Bayes 분류기 보다 향상된 성능을 보였다.
