This includes factors such as high attenuation in seawater, sediment type, acidity concentration, water temperature, and sound speed propagation. One of the available solutions is Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). Unfortunately, the OFDM systems suffer from the Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO) phenomenon that causes Inter-Carrier-Interference. One of the means to overcome this problem is joint equalization and CFO compensation. In this paper, the conventional OFDM system is adapted for Multiple-Input-Multiple Output (MIMO)-OFDM communication utilizing Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) rather than Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT). The DWT-based OFDM system has certain benefits over the comparable DFT. The trade-off, on the other hand, is the necessity for an extra DFT/IDFT to complete the Frequency-Domain equalization procedure, which increases the total computational complexity. In addition, we present a Joint Low Regularized Linear Zero Forcing equalizer for MIMO-OFDM based on DWT that employs the banded-matrix approximation approach. The suggested approach avoids signal-to-noise ratio estimation. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms different schemes at the same UWA channel conditions spatially in the case of estimation errors.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":36280,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Data Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48551423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twitter is a prodigious platform containing an ample amount of data and analyzing the data is of topmost priority. One of the most widely utilized approaches for classifying an individual’s emotions displayed in subjective data is sentiment analysis. Sentiment analysis is done using various algorithms of machine learning like Support Vector Machine, Naive Bayes, Long Short-Term Memory, Decision Tree Classifier, and many more, but this paper aims at the generalized way of performing Twitter sentiment analysis using flask environment. Flask environment provides various inbuilt functionalities to analyze the sentiments of text into three different categories: positive, negative, and neutral. Also, it makes API calls to the Twitter Developer account to fetch the Twitter data. After fetching and analyzing the data, the results get displayed on a webpage containing the percentage of positive, negative, and neutral tweets for a phrase in a pie chart. It displays the language analysis for the same phrase. Furthermore, the webpage calls attention to the tweets done on that phrase and reveals the details of the tweets.

Some use the GARCH family of models to focus on long-memory persistence, while others use Markov chain models to better identify structural breaks and regimes.

Since both are important features of the data, to ignore one or the other could lead to poorly specified models. The outcome would be incorrect risk measurement, with implications for risk management, Value at risk, portfolio decisions, forecasting, and option pricing. This paper aims to fill this gap in the literature. We assemble an international dataset for 16 stock market indices in three continents over the period from August 1, 2019 to February 18, 2022, totalling 669 business days. Using R, we estimate 80 GARCH family models, 16 pure Markov-Switching models, and 900 combined GARCH/ Markov-Switching models using daily stock market log-returns. We allow for two volatility regimes (low and high). We also measure and incorporate News Impact Curves, which show how past shocks affect contemporaneous volatility. Our main finding, across estimated models, is that COVID-19 affected both long-memory persistence and volatility regimes in most markets. To describe the specific impact in each market, we report News Impact Curves. Lastly, the first wave of COVID-19 had a much greater impact on volatility than did subsequent waves linked to the emergence of new variants.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":36280,"journal":{"name":"Annals of Data Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43607429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
