We first identify influential articles, documents, journals and trends in this literature. We use co-citation analysis to identify foundational themes in the development of 21st century skills literature, then using bibliometric coupling, we identify communities in the current research front. We then use co-word analysis to identify future directions in the field. Overall, we find that research on 21st century skills has grown exponentially in the past two decades, however, few researchers focus primarily on this topic. The existing research is primarily dominated by psychologists, education researchers and technology researchers. We also find that specific disciplines such as industrial engineering and nursing are prominent contributors in the field, and that critical thinking and computational thinking are key areas of focus.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 100124"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772503024000100/pdfft?md5=57267bba9de71f79fe6b512e69e99614&pid=1-s2.0-S2772503024000100-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139743275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A comprehensive dataset comprising 501,531 US-based, English-language tweets and 7,282 news headlines extracted from The New York Times and The Washington Post was collected from January 1, 2020, to April 30, 2021. To uncover the temporal evolution of content topics, Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) was employed alongside sentiment analysis to gage corresponding valence levels. Granger causality tests were then conducted on the time series of topic sizes and valence scores from tweets and news headlines to explore the intermedia agenda-setting effects. The LDA analysis identified 13 topics, with Twitter discourse predominantly focusing on the top five ranked topics, while news headlines exhibited a more even distribution across all topics. The Granger causality tests revealed tweets-to-news Granger causality for four topics, news-to-tweets Granger causality for four topics, and mutual influence for the remaining five topics. Consequently, the directions of the agenda-setting effects varied depending on the specific discussions' topics. The findings indicated that elite news media wielded greater influence over socially impactful aspects of COVID-19 vaccination, while Twitter exhibited an agenda largely independent of elite news media, centering on highly personal facets of COVID-19 vaccination.

The study has presented encouraging findings about the identification of Pamor, Dhapur, and Tangguh categories. However, it is crucial to recognise and confront the inherent constraints associated with this research. The key constraints of the study pertain to the diversity of data, accuracy of labeling, generalizability of the model, and ethical considerations. The acquisition of a comprehensive dataset that effectively encompasses the whole range of Keris patterns offers a significant obstacle. Furthermore, it is crucial to pay careful attention to the accuracy of labeling, since it can be influenced by the subjective character of Keris classification. The important worry lies in guaranteeing the model's capacity to generalise to Keris images that have not been previously encountered, as well as its ability to comprehend and explain its decision-making process. The careful establishment of ethical frameworks is necessary to address ethical problems related to cultural sensitivity and the potential misuse of AI outputs in the realm of cultural heritage. Nevertheless, these constraints offer significant perspectives on potential areas for future investigation and enhancement. Future endeavours may prioritise the augmentation and broadening of the dataset, fostering collaboration with specialists in cultural domains, improving the interpretability of the model, and effectively addressing ethical considerations. The present study not only exhibits potential for expanding artificial intelligence in the domain of cultural preservation, but also contributes to a more profound understanding and recognition of the complex artistry and historical significance encapsulated within the Keris.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 100120"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772503024000069/pdfft?md5=a487e8ce6f17e360e4b0517170349623&pid=1-s2.0-S2772503024000069-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139504066","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Blockchain decision schemes (BDSs) can assist in this decision-making process, offering a potentially more cost-effective alternative to domain experts. Flow chart blockchain decision schemes (FC-BDSs) constitute 77.5% of all BDSs, and this paper systematically reviews these by standardising and aggregating the most prominent schemes into an open-source package. Central to our approach is the definition of an FC-BDS as a directed acyclic graph (DAG). Upon this mathematical foundation, we engage in a meticulous exploration and analysis of various elements within FC-BDSs. We present an in-depth analysis of the structure of FC-BDSs, exploring features such as vertex count, question categorisation, and outcome distribution. Notably, the majority of FC-BDS questions ask about data and participation (34.1%) above other domains such as security (18.6%) and performance (10.8%). Observations regarding outcomes shows an overall balance in suggesting the usage or avoidance of blockchains; however, there is a discrepancy between the average questions required to reach these outcomes, revealing potential biases within schemes. Further analysis using similarity metrics (based on both structural and semantic features) identifies significant overlaps between FC-BDSs, with some schemes showing over 90% similarity. These observations could be attributed to a more informal publishing routine for FC-BDSs, and help trace the evolution of FC-BDSs over time. The insights drawn from this research provide valuable insights into the broader BDSs landscape, and stand to make significant strides towards the standardisation of FC-BDSs, thereby promoting a more coherent and effective utilisation of these decision-making tools in the realm of blockchain technology application.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101213,"journal":{"name":"Telematics and Informatics Reports","volume":"13 ","pages":"Article 100115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S277250302400001X/pdfft?md5=2b0b594386c72536b96d0c168e435216&pid=1-s2.0-S277250302400001X-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139548731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
