Summary: With the widespread use of social networks and other platforms, the volume of user-generated textual data is growing rapidly, making sentiment analysis and opinion mining in user reviews more and more important. To tackle issues like data sparsity and lack of co-occurrence patterns, studies have proposed methods like SS-LDA to adapt LDA for short texts. Experimental results indicate that SS-LDA performs competitively in extracting product aspects.

Summary: With the growth of Internet-based applications, such as social networks and e-commerce websites, generating and processing a large volume of opinions and reviews about products and services becomes crucial. Many systems have been proposed to generate and visualize reputation based on textual and numerical reviews. However, these systems fail to consider the presence of malicious users and lack reputation scores for different aspects of the product. Therefore, a system that incorporates spam filtering, review popularity, review posting time, and aspect-based sentiment analysis has been developed to generate accurate and reliable reputation values.

Summary: The focus of this research is to discover the main features of virality patterns in Twitter. Five trending topics related to the COVID-19 pandemic in Spanish language were selected. Opinion mining techniques were used to structure the information based on message polarity and emotions. Data mining techniques, specifically association rules mining, were then applied to identify the highest viral message patterns and the relevant characteristics of patterns with low impact. The analysis revealed that messages with high-negative polarity and intense emotions, particularly fear, sadness, anger, and surprise intensified by the COVID-19 pandemic, are more likely to go viral on social media. On the other hand, messages with little news coverage, few authors, and the absence of surprise are relevant features for messages with very low dissemination on social media.

Summary: The past two decades have seen significant growth in Internet of Things (IoT) applications, with over 50 billion connected devices globally. However, the connectivity of IoT applications with the internet has also made them vulnerable to a range of traditional threats, including viruses, malware, and backdoor attacks. Traditional security techniques are no longer sufficient to address these issues, and there is a need to explore advanced technologies such as blockchain, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to ensure the security and privacy of IoT systems. This study aims to identify and categorize the various types of threats targeting IoT systems and develop recovery mechanisms to mitigate the damage caused by these threats. The findings of this study highlight the research gaps in this area and suggest the importance of expanding advanced technologies to guarantee the security and privacy of IoT systems.

Summary: In sentiment analysis, extracting aspects or opinion targets from user reviews about a product is crucial. Rule-based approaches, such as dependency-based rules and sequential rules, have been widely used for this purpose. However, they heavily rely on the accuracy of POS tagger and dependency parser, and sequential rule-based approaches generally lack generalization capability. In this article, a multi-layered rule-based technique is proposed, which combines syntactic dependency parser based rules and selective sequential rules to extract noun aspects. Additionally, rules for extracting verb aspects are developed based on the association between verb and opinion words. The proposed technique improves the extraction results on two customer review datasets, achieving F1 scores of 0.90 and 0.88, respectively, surpassing existing approaches.

Summary: This study investigated the influence of input parameters on the shear strength of RC squat walls and found that ensemble learning models, particularly XGBoost, can effectively predict the shear strength. The axial load had a greater influence than reinforcement ratio, and longitudinal reinforcement had a more significant impact compared to horizontal and vertical reinforcement. The performance of XGBoost model outperforms traditional design models and reducing input features still yields reliable predictions.

Summary: This paper discusses the urgency of learning complex multivariate probability distributions due to the increase in data variability and quantity. It introduces a highly scalable classifier called TAN, which utilizes maximum weighted spanning tree (MWST) for graphical modeling. The paper theoretically proves the feasibility of extending one-dependence MWST to model high-dependence relationships and proposes a heuristic search strategy to improve the fitness of the extended topology to data. Experimental results demonstrate that this algorithm achieves a good bias-variance tradeoff and competitive classification performance compared to other high-dependence or ensemble learning algorithms.
