Conference Proceeding
Gajbhiye, A., Jaf, S., Al-Moubayed, N., Bradley, S., & McGough, A. S. (2018). CAM: A Combined Attention Model for Natural Language Inference. In N. Abe, H. Liu, C. Pu, X. Hu, N. Ahmed, M. Qiao, …J. Saltz (Eds.), 2018 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (Big Data) ; proceedings (1009-1014). https://doi.org/10.1109/bigdata.2018.8622057

Natural Language Inference (NLI) is a fundamental step towards natural language understanding. The task aims to detect whether a premise entails or contradicts a given hypothesis. NLI contributes to a wide range of natural language understanding appl... Read More about CAM: A Combined Attention Model for Natural Language Inference.

Dropout is a crucial regularization technique for the Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) models of Natural Language Inference (NLI). However, dropout has not been evaluated for the effectiveness at different layers and dropout rates in NLI models. In thi...

Combining Machine Learning Classifiers for the Task of Arabic Characters Recognition (2018)
Journal Article
Alabbas, M., Jaf, S., & Khudeyer, S. R. (2018). Combining Machine Learning Classifiers for the Task of Arabic Characters Recognition. Journal of Chinese Language and Computing, 28(1), 1-12

There is a number of machine learning algorithms for recognizing Arabic characters. In this paper, we investigate a range of strategies for multiple machine learning algorithms for the task of Arabic characters recognition, where we are faced with im...

Security Threats to Critical Infrastructure: The Human Factor (2018)
Journal Article
Ghafir, I., Saleem, J., Hammoudeh, M., Faour, H., Prenosil, V., Jaf, S., …Baker, T. (2018). Security Threats to Critical Infrastructure: The Human Factor. Journal of Supercomputing, 74(10), 4986-5002. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11227-018-2337-2

In the 21st century, globalisation made corporate boundaries invisible and difficult to manage. This new macroeconomic transformation caused by globalisation introduced new challenges for critical infrastructure management. By replacing manual tasks...
