Context Software development is increasingly dependent on existing libraries. Developers need help to find suitable library APIs. Although many studies have been proposed to recommend relevant functional APIs that can be invoked for implementing a functionality, few studies have paid attention to an orthogonal need associated with event-driven prog...

Entity matching, also known as user identity linkage, is a critical task in data integration. While established techniques primarily focus on large-scale networks, there are several applications where small networks pose challenges due to limited training data and sparsity. This study addresses entity matching in the field of criminology, where sma...

Multi-target multi-camera tracking is crucial to intelligent transportation systems. Numerous recent studies have been undertaken to address this issue. Nevertheless, using the approaches in real-world situations is challenging due to the scarcity of publicly available data and the laborious process of manually annotating the new dataset and creati...

An essential application in intelligent transportation systems is multi-target multi-camera tracking (MTMCT), where the target’s activity is tracked from different cameras. Although the tracking-by-detection scheme is the primary paradigm in MTMCT, the object association information from the video frames is lost. This is mainly because the multi-ca...

Multi-target multi-camera tracking (MTMCT) is an important application in intelligent transportation systems (ITS). The conventional works follow the tracking-by-detection scheme and use the information of the object image separately while matching the object from different cameras. As a result, the association information from the object image is...

Learning heterogeneous graphs consisting of different types of nodes and edges enhances the results of homogeneous graph techniques. An interesting example of such graphs is control-flow graphs representing possible software code execution flows. As such graphs represent more semantic information of code, developing techniques and tools for such gr...

The recent advent and evolution of deep learning models and pre-trained embedding techniques have created a breakthrough in supervised learning. Typically, we expect that adding more labeled data improves the predictive performance of supervised models. On the other hand, collecting more labeled data is not an easy task due to several difficulties,...

Developing modern mobile applications often require the uses of many libraries specific for the mobile platform, which can be overwhelmingly too many for application developers to find what are needed for a functionality and where and how to use them properly. This paper presents a tool, named LibraryGuru, to recommend suitable Android APIs for giv...

Android, the modern operating system for smartphones, together with its millions of apps, has become an important part of human life. There are many challenges to analyzing them. It is important to model the mobile systems in order to analyze the behaviors of apps accurately. These apps are built on top of interactions with Android systems. We aim...
