“…Pontryagin's maximum principle [24,25] provides the necessary conditions for optimal control. At this time, the optimal control problem can be transformed into the minimum Hamiltonian function problem [26][27][28][29]. Te corresponding crosssectional conditions will change when the state equation changes or the terminal conditions change.…”

Network public opinion represents public social opinion to a certain extent and has an important impact on formulating national policies and judgment. Therefore, China and other countries attach great importance to the study of online public opinion. However, the current researches lack the combination of theory and practical cases and lack the intersection of social and natural sciences. This work aims to overcome the technical defects of traditional management systems, break through the difficulties and pain points of existing network public opinion risk management, and improve the efficiency of network public opinion risk management. Firstly, a network public opinion isolation strategy based on the infectious disease propagation model is proposed, and the optimal control theory is used to realize a functional control model to maximize social utility. Secondly, blockchain technology is used to build a network public opinion risk management system. The system is used to conduct a detailed study on identifying and perceiving online public opinion risk. Finally, a Chinese word segmentation scheme based on Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network model and a text emotion recognition scheme based on a convolutional neural network are proposed. Both schemes are validated on a typical corpus. The results show that when the system has a control strategy, the number of susceptible drops significantly. Two days after the public opinion is generated, the number of susceptible people decreased from 1,000 to 250; 3 days after the public opinion is generated, the number of susceptible people stabilized. 2 days after the public opinion is generated, the number of lurkers increased from 100 to 620; 3 days after the public opinion is generated, the number of lurkers stabilized. The data demonstrate that the designed isolation control strategy is effective. Changes in public opinion among infected people show that quarantine control strategies played a significant role in the early days of Corona Virus Disease 2019. The rate of change in the number of infections is more affected when quarantine controls are increased, especially in the days leading up to the outbreak. When the system adopts the optimal control strategy, the influence scope of public opinion becomes smaller, and the control becomes easier. When the dimension of the word vector of emergent events is 200, its accuracy may be higher. This method provides certain ideas for blockchain and deep learning technology in network public opinion control.

“…Examining the effects of specific policies and programs on SWB however is beyond the scope of this study. A growing literature evaluates the effectiveness of small-scale interventions aimed at improving SWB in deprived communities (e.g., Lloyd-Sherlock et al, 2012;Martínez & Maia, 2018;Carrasco et al, 2020). There is also an increasing interest in the relationship between public policy and SWB (e.g., Moreno-Sanchez et al, 2018;Morgan & O'Connor, 2020).…”

“…Likewise, Chindarkar (2012) examines the effects of a conditional cash transfer program in Peru and concludes that enrollment in the program can cause feelings of frustration and low self-esteem. A recent Uruguayan study (Carrasco et al, 2020) also finds negative effects of a social intermediation program on SWB through its effect on relative wealth perceptions which were updated as a result the improved knowledge on wealth distribution obtained through the program. These studies highlight the importance of addressing the psychological consequences of poverty (Haushofer & Fehr, 2014) in programs and policy making.…”

Despite being on average a relatively happy country, Colombia has a high level of inequality in subjective well-being (SWB). Using Gallup World Poll data for the period from 2010 to 2018, this paper tests the direction and strength of association of a range of objective and subjective factors with SWB and explains differences in SWB across individuals and space. The perceived welfare of the average Colombian is mainly influenced by conditions and expectations related to economic opportunities and education. However, quantile regressions, reveal substantial differences in the domains that matter to those at the bottom and top of the experienced welfare distribution. Standard-of-living improvements, housing affordability, and civic engagement matter more to the most fortunate top 20%, while having education, a job, sufficient income, economic security, and digital connectivity are much more strongly associated with the well-being of the bottom 20%. The life domains that matter more to the unhappiest respondents also explain the majority of the spatial differences in perceived welfare between residents in urban and rural areas as well as core and peripheral regions. Policy actions aimed at closing the gaps in these areas have the potential to increase well-being and reduce inequality in Colombia.
