The term "personality" can be defined as the mixture of features and qualities that built an individual's distinctive characters, including thinking, feeling and behaviour. Nowadays, it is hard to select the right employees due to the vast pool of candidates. Traditionally, a company will arrange interview sessions with prospective candidates to know their personalities. However, this procedure sometimes demands extra time because the total number of interviewers is lesser than the total number of job seekers. Since technology has evolved rapidly, personality computing has become a popular research field that provides personalisation to users. Currently, researchers have utilised social media data for auto-predicting personality. However, it is complex to mine the social media data as they are noisy, come in various formats and lengths. This paper proposes a machine learning technique using Random Forest classifier to automatically predict people's personality based on Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI). Researchers compared the performance of the proposed method in this study with other popular machine learning algorithms. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that Random Forest classifier performs better than the different three machine learning algorithms in terms of accuracy, thus capable in assisting employers in identifying personality types for selecting suitable candidates.

This paper discusses impact of recovering missing Electroencephalography (EEG) data on classification accuracy of hand movements using tensor-based methods. Improvement in classification accuracy is important for efficient performance of prosthesis. Classification accuracy relies on quality of the observed data. In practice, observed data is usually incomplete because of disconnection of electrodes and other artefacts, which negatively affect the classification accuracy. In this paper, we employ tensor-based imputation methods (canonical/polyadiac decomposition (CPD), weighted optimization version of CPD (CP-WOPT and Nonnegative Matrix Factorization (NMF)) to recover missing data in EEG signals and apply various classifiers to classify hand movements on recovered data. In particular, structured missing data was considered because that is how data gets missed in real-life data acquisition. Percentage of missing data was changed from 10% to 50%. Classifiers are applied on complete, missing and recovered data explicitly to test the performance of our framework. Results show that mean classification accuracy on complete data, missing data and recovered data was 71%, 53% and 64% respectively which shows applicability of our framework.
