Multilayer Representation and Multiscale Analysis on Data Networks

The constant increase in the complexity of data networks motivates the search for strategies that make it possible to reduce current monitoring times. This paper shows the way in which multilayer network representation and the application of multiscale analysis techniques, as applied to software-defined networks, allows for the visualization of anomalies from "coarse views of the network topology". This implies the analysis of fewer data, and consequently the reduction of the time that a process takes to monitor the network. The fact that software-defined networks allow for the obtention of a global view of network behavior facilitates detail recovery from affected zones detected in monitoring processes. The method is evaluated by calculating the reduction factor of nodes, checked during anomaly detection, with respect to the total number of nodes in the network.

Concept-based indexing in text information retrieval

Traditional information retrieval systems rely on keywords to index documents and queries. In such systems, documents are retrieved based on the number of shared keywords with the query. This lexical-focused retrieval leads to inaccurate and incomplete results when different keywords are used to describe the documents and queries. Semantic-focused retrieval approaches attempt to overcome this problem by relying on concepts rather than on keywords to indexing and retrieval. The goal is to retrieve documents that are semantically relevant to a given user query. This paper addresses this issue by proposing a solution at the indexing level. More precisely, we propose a novel approach for semantic indexing based on concepts identified from a linguistic resource. In particular, our approach relies on the joint use of WordNet and WordNetDomains lexical databases for concept identification. Furthermore, we propose a semantic-based concept weighting scheme that relies on a novel definition of concept centrality. The resulting system is evaluated on the TIME test collection. Experimental results show the effectiveness of our proposition over traditional IR approaches.
