Consumer reviews are important information that reflects the quality of E-commerce goods and services and their existing problems after shopping. Due to the possible differences in consumers' experiences with goods and service quality, consumer reviews can involve multiple-aspect expressions of emotions or opinions. This may result in attitudes expressed by a consumer in the same review sometimes having a variety of emotions. We introduce a sentiment multiclassification method based on a directed weighted model. The model represents the sentiment entity vocabulary as the sentiment nodes and represents the relation between nodes as the directed weighted link. The sentiment entity vocabulary is the entity with attributes, which can express sentiment meaning in related reviews. Directed weighted links represent the sentiment similarity between two nodes of entities with attributes and determined by the direct correlation calculation between them. The paths are all connected directed links from one node to another, which are composed of several nodes and links with close sentiment similarity. Then, we can establish a directed weighted model concerning the sentiments. Directed weighted links having similar sentiment relations with each other may constitute a directed weighted path. There are several directed weighted paths from a start node to the end nodes of the sentiment entity vocabulary in the directed weighted model. Each different path is a different sentiment expression, which represents a different sentiment type. The different sentiment classifications can be obtained through the restriction of path length. Experiments and analysis of the results show that the sentiment multiclassification model based on the directed weighted model proposed in this paper can classify the review sentiments according to different limited threshold rules. Comprehensive analysis indicates the classification results have good accuracy and high efficiency.
The cyber security toolkit, CyberSecTK, is a simple Python library for preprocessing and feature extraction of cyber-security-related data. As the digital universe expands, more and more data need to be processed using automated approaches. In recent years, cyber security professionals have seen opportunities to use machine learning approaches to help process and analyze their data. The challenge is that cyber security experts do not have necessary trainings to apply machine learning to their problems. The goal of this library is to help bridge this gap. In particular, we propose the development of a toolkit in Python that can process the most common types of cyber security data. This will help cyber experts to implement a basic machine learning pipeline from beginning to end. This proposed research work is our first attempt to achieve this goal. The proposed toolkit is a suite of program modules, data sets, and tutorials supporting research and teaching in cyber security and defense. An example of use cases is presented and discussed. Survey results of students using some of the modules in the library are also presented.
Recently, an active area of research in pharmacovigilance is to use social media such as Twitter as an alternative data source to gather patient-generated information pertaining to medication use. Most of thr published work focuses on identifying mentions of adverse effects in social media data but rarely investigating the relationship between a mentioned medication and any mentioned effect expressions. In this study, we treated this relation extraction task as a classification problem, and represented the Twitter text with neural embedding which was fed to a recurrent neural network classifier. The classification performance of our method was investigated in comparison with 4 baseline word embedding methods on a corpus of 9516 annotated tweets.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
