A Fair Classifier Embracing Triplet Collapse

In this paper, we study the behaviour of the triplet loss and show that it can be exploited to limit the biases created and perpetuated by machine learning models. Our fair classifier uses the collapse of the triplet loss when its margin is greater than the maximum distance between two points in the latent space, in the case of stochastic triplet selection.

Evaluation of GraphRAG Strategies for Efficient Information Retrieval

Traditional RAG systems struggle to capture relationships and cross-references between different sources unless explicitly mentioned. This challenge is common in real-world scenarios, where information is often distributed and interlinked, making graphs a more effective representation. Our work provides a technical contribution through a comparative evaluation of retrieval strategies within GraphRAG, focusing on context relevance rather than abstract metrics. We aim to offer practitioners actionable insights into the retrieval component of the GraphRAG pipeline.

Flight Load Factor Predictions based on Analysis of Ticket Prices and other Factors

The ability to forecast traffic and to size the operation accordingly is a determining factor, for airports. However, to realise its full potential, it needs to be considered as part of a holistic approach, closely linked to airport planning and operations. To ensure airport resources are used efficiently, accurate information about passenger numbers and their effects on the operation is essential. Therefore, this study explores machine learning capabilities enabling predictions of aircraft load factors.
