Abstract: An ensemble learning based method is for a binary classification on an imbalanced dataset. The imbalanced dataset has a minority class comprising positive samples and a majority class comprising negative samples. The method includes: generatively oversampling the imbalanced dataset by synthetically generating minority class examples, thereby generating a generated dataset; using the generated dataset to generate subsamples, and learning a base classifier on each of the subsamples to determine a plurality of base classifiers; and learning a weighted majority vote classifier by combining outputs of the base classifiers. Each of the base classifiers is assigned a weight in such a way that a diversity between the base classifiers on the positive samples is minimized.

Abstract: A method for ensemble machine learning includes: receiving input data and input models, the input models each having learning properties; generating perturbed data by adding noise to the input data; performing a landmarking operation on the perturbed data to generate meta-features that correlate with the learning properties of the input models; generating decision trees based on the input models and the meta-features.

Abstract: Methods and systems for automating supervised learning tasks are provided. Feature generation in a feature space having a plurality of features using at least one predefined process for a plurality of data types is performed. A minimum set of relevant features are identified. The feature space is decreased using at least one filtering approach and the minimum set of relevant features. A Bayesian combinatorial optimization heuristic is devised to jointly identify a feature subset and a hyperparameter setting for a given query, a machine learning algorithm, and a dataset.

Abstract: A method for providing dispatching services for an on-demand transportation (ODT) service includes determining that a predictive assignment message should be transmitted to a vehicle, generating, in response to the determining that a predictive assignment should be transmitted to a vehicle, the predictive assignment message, and transmitting, to the vehicle, the predictive assignment message. Generating the predictive assignment message uses one or more prediction models computed from historical and real-time ODT service data.

Abstract: A method of filtering Floating Car Data (FCD) sources includes receiving data from the FCD sources. A plurality of indicators are computed for each of the FCD sources from the data received from the FCD sources. The indicators include at least one indicator that indicates a veracity of the data and at least one indicator that indicates a value of the data. A unified quality indicator is computed for each of the FCD sources from the respective indicators. The unified quality indicators are compared to a predetermined threshold. The data received from the FCD sources is stored excluding, based on the comparison, the data received from at least one of the FCD sources.
