- Description: Recently, a wide range of digital health record repositories has emerged. These include Electronic Health record managed by the government, Electronic Medical Record (EMR) managed by healthcare providers, Personal Health Record (PHR) managed directly by the patient and new Blockchain-based systems mainly managed by technologies. Health record repositories differ from one another on the level of security, privacy, and quality of services (QoS) they provide. Health data stored in these repositories also varies from patient to patient in sensitivity, and significance depending on medical, personal preference, and other factors. Decisions regarding which digital record repository is most appropriate for the storage of each data item at every point in time are complex and nuanced. The challenges are exacerbated with health data continuously streamed from wearable sensors. In this paper, we propose a recommendation model for health data storage that can accommodate patient preferences and make storage decisions rapidly, in real-time, even with streamed data. The model maps health data to be stored in the repositories. The mapping between health data features and characteristics of each repository is learned using a machine learning-based classifier mediated through clinical rules. Evaluation results demonstrate the model's feasibility. © 2020 ACM.

- Description: Real-time detection of cyber threats is a challenging task in cyber security. With the advancement of technology and ease of access to the internet, more and more individuals and organizations are becoming the target for various cyber attacks such as malware, ransomware, spyware. The target of these attacks is to steal money or valuable information from the victims. Signature-based detection methods fail to keep up with the constantly evolving new threats. Machine learning based detection has drawn more attention of researchers due to its capability of detecting new and modified attacks based on previous attack's behaviour. The number of malicious activities in a certain domain is significantly low compared to the number of normal activities. Therefore, cyber threats detection data sets are imbalanced. In this paper, we proposed a partial undersampling method to deal with imbalanced data for detecting cyber threats. © 2020 ACM.
