© 2019 IEEE. Malicious software, often described as malware, is one of the greatest threats to modern computer systems, and attackers continue to develop more sophisticated methods to access and compromise data and resources. Machine learning methods... Read More about Efficient and interpretable real-time malware detection using random-forest.

What makes for effective visualisation in cyber situational awareness for non-expert users? (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Carroll, F., Chakof, A., & Legg, P. (2019). What makes for effective visualisation in cyber situational awareness for non-expert users?. . https://doi.org/10.1109/CyberSA.2019.8899440

© 2019 IEEE. As cyber threats continue to become more prevalent, there is a need to consider how best we can understand the cyber landscape when acting online, especially so for non-expert users. Satellite navigation systems provide the de facto stan... Read More about What makes for effective visualisation in cyber situational awareness for non-expert users?.

Venue2Vec: An efficient embedding model for fine-grained user location prediction in geo-social networks (2019)
Journal Article
Xu, S., Cao, J., Legg, P., Liu, B., & Li, S. (2020). Venue2Vec: An efficient embedding model for fine-grained user location prediction in geo-social networks. IEEE Systems Journal, 14(2), 1740-1751. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSYST.2019.2913080

Geo-Social Networks (GSN) significantly improve location-aware capability of services by offering geo-located content based on the huge volumes of data generated in the GSN. The problem of user location prediction based on user-generated data in GSN...

Visual analytics for collaborative human-machine confidence in human-centric active learning tasks (2019)
Journal Article
Legg, P., Smith, J., & Downing, A. (2019). Visual analytics for collaborative human-machine confidence in human-centric active learning tasks. Human-Centric Computing and Information Sciences, 9, Article 5. https://doi.org/10.1186/s13673-019-0167-8

Active machine learning is a human-centric paradigm that leverages a small labelled dataset to build an initial weak classifier, that can then be improved over time through human-machine collaboration. As new unlabelled samples are observed, the mach... Read More about Visual analytics for collaborative human-machine confidence in human-centric active learning tasks.
