• Abstract summary: We propose a joint data imputation and data classification method, termed generative adversarial classification network (GACN) For the scenario where some data samples are unlabeled, we propose an extension termed semi-supervised GACN (SSGACN), which is able to use the partially labeled data to improve classification accuracy. We conduct experiments with real-world network traffic data traces, which demonstrate that GACN and SS-GACN can more accurately impute data features that are more important for classification, and they outperform existing methods in terms of classification accuracy.

• Abstract: Large datasets in machine learning often contain missing data, which necessitates the imputation of missing data values. In this work, we are motivated by network traffic classification, where traditional data imputation methods do not perform well. We recognize that no existing method directly accounts for classification accuracy during data imputation. Therefore, we propose a joint data imputation and data classification method, termed generative adversarial classification network (GACN), whose architecture contains a generator network, a discriminator network, and a classification network, which are iteratively optimized toward the ultimate objective of classification accuracy. For the scenario where some data samples are unlabeled, we further propose an extension termed semi-supervised GACN (SSGACN), which is able to use the partially labeled data to improve classification accuracy. We conduct experiments with real-world network traffic data traces, which demonstrate that GACN and SS-GACN can more accurately impute data features that are more important for classification, and they outperform existing methods in terms of classification accuracy.

  Generalized category discovery (GCD) aims to automatically cluster partially labeled data. Unlabeled data contain instances that are not only from known categories of the labeled data but also from novel categories. One effective way for GCD is applying self-supervised learning to learn discriminate representation for unlabeled data. We propose a Dynamic Conceptional Contrastive Learning framework, which can effectively improve clustering accuracy.

  Cross entropy loss can easily lead us to find models which demonstrate severe overfitting behavior. In this paper, we prove that the existing cross entropy loss minimization for training DNN classifiers essentially learns the conditional entropy of the underlying data distribution. We propose a mutual information learning framework where we train DNN classifiers via learning the mutual information between the label and input.

We show that our method outperforms state-of-the-art one-class classification method by 6.3 AUC and 12.5 average precision.
