In order to eradicate the disease, a great help came from unprecedentedly fast vaccines development along with strict preventive measures adoption like lockdown. Thus, world wide provisioning of vaccines was crucial in order to achieve the maximum immunization of population. However, the fast development of vaccines, driven by the urge of limiting the pandemic caused skeptical reactions by a vast amount of population. More specifically, the people's hesitancy in getting vaccinated was an additional obstacle in fighting COVID-19. To ameliorate this scenario, it is important to understand people's sentiments about vaccines in order to take proper actions to better inform the population. As a matter of fact, people continuously update their feelings and sentiments on social media, thus a proper analysis of those opinions is an important challenge for providing proper information to avoid misinformation. More in detail, sentiment analysis (Wankhade et al. in Artif Intell Rev 55(7):5731-5780, 2022. 10.1007/s10462-022-10144-1) is a powerful technique in natural language processing that enables the identification and classification of people feelings (mainly) in text data. It involves the use of machine learning algorithms and other computational techniques to analyze large volumes of text and determine whether they express positive, negative or neutral sentiment. Sentiment analysis is widely used in industries such as marketing, customer service, and healthcare, among others, to gain actionable insights from customer feedback, social media posts, and other forms of unstructured textual data. In this paper, Sentiment Analysis will be used to elaborate on people reaction to COVID-19 vaccines in order to provide useful insights to improve the correct understanding of their correct usage and possible advantages. In this paper, a framework that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) methods is proposed for classifying tweets based on their polarity values. We analyzed Twitter data related to COVID-19 vaccines after the most appropriate pre-processing on them. More specifically, we identified the word-cloud of negative, positive, and neutral words using an artificial intelligence tool to determine the sentiment of tweets. After this pre-processing step, we performed classification using the BERT + NBSVM model to classify people's sentiments about vaccines. The reason for choosing to combine bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT) and Naive Bayes and support vector machine (NBSVM ) can be understood by considering the limitation of BERT-based approaches, which only leverage encoder layers, resulting in lower performance on short texts like the ones used in our analysis. Such a limitation can be ameliorated by using Naive Ba","PeriodicalId":50034,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Supercomputing","volume":" ","pages":"1-31"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2023-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10164419/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9713884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This absurd rate of productivity in research articles leads to information overload. It has increasingly become urgent for researchers and medical associations to stay up to date on the latest COVID-19 studies. To address information overload in COVID-19 scientific literature, the study presents a novel hybrid model named CovSumm, an unsupervised graph-based hybrid approach for single-document summarization, that is evaluated on the CORD-19 dataset. We have tested the proposed methodology on the scientific papers in the database dated from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021, consisting of 840 documents in total. The proposed text summarization is a hybrid of two distinctive extractive approaches (1) GenCompareSum (transformer-based approach) and (2) TextRank (graph-based approach). The sum of scores generated by both methods is used to rank the sentences for generating the summary. On the CORD-19, the recall-oriented understudy for gisting evaluation (ROUGE) score metric is used to compare the performance of the CovSumm model with various state-of-the-art techniques. The proposed method achieved the highest scores of ROUGE-1: 40.14%, ROUGE-2: 13.25%, and ROUGE-L: 36.32%.

Among the most advantageous of these networks is the convolutional neural network (CNN). It has been used in pattern recognition, medical diagnosis, and signal processing, among other things. Actually, for these networks, the challenge of choosing hyperparameters is of utmost importance. The reason behind this is that as the number of layers rises, the search space grows exponentially. In addition, all known classical and evolutionary pruning algorithms require a trained or built architecture as input. During the design phase, none of them consider the process of pruning. In order to assess the effectiveness and efficiency of any architecture created, pruning of channels must be carried out before transmitting the dataset and computing classification errors. For instance, following pruning, an architecture of medium quality in terms of classification may transform into an architecture that is both highly light and accurate, and vice versa. There exist countless potential scenarios that could occur, which prompted us to develop a bi-level optimization approach for the entire process. The upper level involves generating the architecture while the lower level optimizes channel pruning. Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have proven effective in bi-level optimization, leading us to adopt the co-evolutionary migration-based algorithm as a search engine for our bi-level architectural optimization problem in this research. Our proposed method, CNN-D-P (bi-level CNN design and pruning), was tested on the widely used image classification benchmark datasets, CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100 and ImageNet.

In this article, we propose Localization of ground UEs and their Association with the UmBS (LUAU), an approach that ensures localization of ground UEs and energy-efficient deployment of UmBSs. Unlike existing studies that proposed their work based on the known UEs positional information, we first propose a three-dimensional range-based localization approach (3D-RBL) to estimate the position information of the ground UEs. Subsequently, an optimization problem is formulated to maximize the UE's mean data rate by optimizing the UmBS transmit power and deployment locations while taking the interference from the surrounding UmBSs into consideration. To achieve the goal of the optimization problem, we utilize the exploration and exploitation abilities of the Q-learning framework.

In a similar fashion, the applications of machine learning can be utilized for the early identification of monkeypox cases. However, sharing critical health information with various actors such as patients, doctors, and other healthcare professionals in a secure manner remains a research challenge. Motivated by this fact, our paper presents a blockchain-enabled conceptual framework for the early detection and classification of monkeypox using transfer learning.

To validate the effectiveness of the proposed model, various performance estimators, namely accuracy, recall, precision, and F1-score, are employed. The performance of different transfer learning models, namely Xception, VGG19, and VGG16, is compared against the presented methodology.
