This study utilizes the partial least squares-structural equation modeling approach to perform data analyses on 258 TikTok app users.FindingsOur results provide a strong support such that users' playful consumption experiences (i.e. escapism, role projection, arousal, sensory experience and enjoyment) positively influence their intention to use the TikTok app and its resultant effect on users' actual usage of the app. In contrast, fantasy and emotional involvement fail to influence users' intention to use the TikTok app.Originality/valueTo the best of our knowledge, our investigation is one of the first studies to apply the hedonic consumption experiences as potential gratifications that derive users' intention and its subsequent influence on the actual usage of the TikTok app. Our study results would assist marketing and brand managers to redefine approaches and tactics to create effective strategies that implement essential determinants to increase behavioral intention among entertainment service providers.","PeriodicalId":56156,"journal":{"name":"Data Technologies and Applications","volume":"258 1","pages":"344-365"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77615971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Empirical studies on social commerce have examined the key factors that influence users' attitudes or adoption intentions, but their conclusions are context-based and are not entirely consistent. This study aims to draw a general conclusion by systematically synthesizing the findings of previous studies and examine whether cultural differences play a moderating role in users' social commerce adoption.Design/methodology/approachA meta-analysis based on 11,786 independent samples from 39 empirical studies was conducted to integrate their results and develop a comprehensive conceptual model. A moderator analysis was carried out to investigate the moderating effect of culture by dividing the context into subgroups of individualistic and collectivistic cultures.FindingsThe results show that this comprehensive conceptual model can help better understand the adoption of social commerce. Meanwhile, the moderator analysis indicates that cultural differences have a significant moderating effect on the relationship between the determinants and the adoption of social commerce.Originality/valueThe findings of this paper have theoretical implications and make managerial contributions.","PeriodicalId":56156,"journal":{"name":"Data Technologies and Applications","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"62066178","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pathologists examine the images at various magnifications to identify the type of tumor because if only one magnification is taken into account, the decision may not be accurate. This study explores the performance of transfer learning and late fusion to construct multi-scale ensembles that fuse different magnification-specific deep learning models for the binary classification of breast tumor slides.Design/methodology/approachThree pretrained deep learning techniques (DenseNet 201, MobileNet v2 and Inception v3) were used to classify breast tumor images over the four magnification factors of the Breast Cancer Histopathological Image Classification dataset (40×, 100×, 200× and 400×). To fuse the predictions of the models trained on different magnification factors, different aggregators were used, including weighted voting and seven meta-classifiers trained on slide predictions using class labels and the probabilities assigned to each class. The best cluster of the outperforming models was chosen using the Scott–Knott statistical test, and the top models were ranked using the Borda count voting system.FindingsThis study recommends the use of transfer learning and late fusion for histopathological breast cancer image classification by constructing multi-magnification ensembles because they perform better than models trained on each magnification separately.Originality/valueThe best multi-scale ensembles outperformed state-of-the-art integrated models and achieved an accuracy mean value of 98.82 per cent, precision of 98.46 per cent, recall of 100 per cent and F1-score of 99.20 per cent.","PeriodicalId":56156,"journal":{"name":"Data Technologies and Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45716506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It also compares different models for a SA task of Algerian Arabic tweets related to early days of the Algerian SM, called Hirak.Design/methodology/approachRelated tweets were retrieved using relevant hashtags followed by multiple data cleaning procedures. Foundational machine learning methods such as Naive Bayes, Support Vector Machine, Logistic Regression (LR) and Decision Tree were implemented. For each classifier, two feature extraction techniques were used and compared, namely Bag of Words and Term Frequency–Inverse Document Frequency. Moreover, three fine-tuned pretrained transformers AraBERT and DziriBERT and the multilingual transformer XLM-R were used for the comparison.FindingsThe findings of this paper emphasize the vital role social media played during the Hirak. Results revealed that most individuals had a positive attitude toward the Hirak. Moreover, the presented experiments provided important insights into the possible use of both basic machine learning and transfer learning models to analyze SA of Algerian text datasets. When comparing machine learning models with transformers in terms of accuracy, precision, recall and F1-score, the results are fairly similar, with LR outperforming all models with a 68 per cent accuracy rate.Originality/valueAt the time of writing, the Algerian SM was not thoroughly investigated or discussed in the Computer Science literature. This analysis makes a limited but unique contribution to understanding the Algerian Hirak using artificial intelligence. This study proposes what it considers to be a unique basis for comprehending this event with the goal of generating a foundation for future studies by comparing different SA techniques on a low-resource language.","PeriodicalId":56156,"journal":{"name":"Data Technologies and Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46130946","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Network analysis relies heavily on community detection. Despite the traditional spectral clustering and statistical inference methods, deep learning techniques for community detection have grown in popularity due to their ease of processing high-dimensional network data. Graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) have received much attention recently and have developed into a potential and ubiquitous method for directly detecting communities on graphs. Inspired by the promising results of graph convolutional networks (GCNs) in analyzing graph structure data, a novel community graph convolutional network (CommunityGCN) as a semi-supervised node classification model has been proposed and compared with recent baseline methods graph attention network (GAT), GCN-based technique for unsupervised community detection and Markov random fields combined with graph convolutional network (MRFasGCN).Design/methodology/approachThis work presents the method for identifying communities that combines the notion of node classification via message passing with the architecture of a semi-supervised graph neural network. Six benchmark datasets, namely, Cora, CiteSeer, ACM, Karate, IMDB and Facebook, have been used in the experimentation.FindingsIn the first set of experiments, the scaled normalized average matrix of all neighbor's features including the node itself was obtained, followed by obtaining the weighted average matrix of low-dimensional nodes. In the second set of experiments, the average weighted matrix was forwarded to the GCN with two layers and the activation function for predicting the node class was applied. The results demonstrate that node classification with GCN can improve the performance of identifying communities on graph datasets.Originality/valueThe experiment reveals that the CommunityGCN approach has given better results with accuracy, normalized mutual information, F1 and modularity scores of 91.26, 79.9, 92.58 and 70.5 per cent, respectively, for detecting communities in the graph network, which is much greater than the range of 55.7–87.07 per cent reported in previous literature. Thus, it has been concluded that the GCN with node classification models has improved the accuracy.","PeriodicalId":56156,"journal":{"name":"Data Technologies and Applications","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41895655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
