SMS Spam Filtering using Probabilistic Topic Modelling and Stacked Denoising Autoencoder (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Al Moubayed, N., Breckon, T., Matthews, P., & McGough, A. (2016, August). SMS Spam Filtering using Probabilistic Topic Modelling and Stacked Denoising Autoencoder

In This paper we present a novel approach to spam filtering and demonstrate its applicability with respect to SMS messages. Our approach requires minimum features engineering and a small set of labelled data samples. Features are extracted using topi...

We propose a formulation for linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) in which the stress intensity factors (SIF) are found directly from the solution vector of an extended boundary element method (XBEM) formulation. The enrichment is embedded in the... Read More about An extended boundary element method formulation for the direct calculation of the stress intensity factors in fully anisotropic materials.

Traditional “distance based methods” reconstruct a phylogenetic tree from a matrix of pair-wise distances between taxa. A phylogenetic network is a generalisation of a phylogenetic tree that can describe evolutionary events such as reticulation and h...
