In the particular context of cyberterrorism, hostile social manipulation (HSM) represents a strategy that employs different manipulation methods, mostly through social media, to promote extremism in social groups and encourage hostile behavior against a target. Thus, this paper proposes a framework based on natural language processing (NLP) that detects and inspects supposed HSM actions to support law enforcement agencies (LEAs) in the prevention of cyberterrorism. The proposal integrates different NLP techniques through three models: (i) a similarity model that relates content with similar semantic meaning, (ii) a polarity analysis model that estimates polarity, and (iii) a named-entity recognition (NER) model that recognizes relevant entities. In addition, our proposed framework is evaluated in each of its components through exhaustive experiments and is tested with a particular use case related to violent protests in Ecuador in October 2021. Use case’s results indicate that 3 and 4 clusters are obtained when Spanish and English-translated tweets are used, respectively. An analysis of polarity over English-translated tweets allows us to identify, through two different methods, the most negative cluster (#1). The results of the extraction of the mentions show that our framework is able to identify entities of the type of person that may be at risk with a precision of 89.91%. Knowledge graphs achieved in our use case allow us to identify how nodes that promote HSM are interconnected and work collaboratively. Finally, the computational costs of our proposal are quite favorable as memory consumption of similarity and polarity models is proportional to the number of processed tweets, confirming the feasibility of the solution in a real context.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50653,"journal":{"name":"Complexity","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/3380488","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141624527","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its control performance is severely weakened by the inherent chattering and speed iteration operation. In order to effectively resolve these problems, a strategy to design a dual-SMO is proposed in this paper. With the proposed strategy, the combination of the stator-voltage transformation matrix (SVTM) and the low-pass filter is developed to obtain the rotor position information, which greatly alleviates the chattering without any deviations. Meanwhile, three independent equations are constructed and extracted by placing two SVTMs in different locations. By solving these three equations, the rotor position can be calculated directly with zero phase shift, which eliminates the speed iteration operation and improves the system’s dynamic performance. Furthermore, by analyzing the influences of machine parameters’ variations, the suitable virtual <i>q</i>-axis inductance can be selected to quickly achieve the optimal-efficiency sensorless control of the IPMSM.

This paper presents a framework for evaluating the SC risks of Iranian biopharmaceutical companies based on cause-and-effect relationships and fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs). We first interviewed several biopharmaceutical supply experts to learn about potential SC risks, causal relationships among FCM concepts, FCM structure, and FCM activation cycle. The most critical and relevant risks and significant elements of the SCs, such as cost, time, and quality, were identified as relevant FCM concepts. Then, we used failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) and the FCM of the SC risks to assess the impacts of the biopharmaceutical SC risks on each other and on the crucial elements of the SCs. The Hebbian learning algorithms were then applied to train the FCM models. We tested different scenarios to evaluate the impacts of FCM concepts on the SC risks. The proposed approach can prioritize risk factors and, more importantly, predict and analyze the effect of each risk factor/risk group on other risks or the outcome of a given risk. The proposed FCM features and the knowledge gained from evaluating them can provide practical and helpful information to pharmaceutical companies to deal with their supply risks more efficiently.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50653,"journal":{"name":"Complexity","volume":"2024 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2024/4369401","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141488329","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On this basis, this paper proposes a method for analyzing the contribution degree of different causes and accident conduction paths in ship collision accidents based on the construction of the Ship Collision Accidents Event Graph (SCAEG). Firstly, the ontology is constructed based on the grounded theory. Secondly, events and relationships are extracted after fine-tuning the UIE model.

Finally, this research conducts the contribution degree analysis, accident conduction path analysis, and accident spatial distribution analysis based on SCAEG.
