Abstract

In this work a model is engineered to depict topic relationships as graphs between detected topics of different time windows. By varying and shifting the time span of consideration the relationships between topics can be mapped with a variable complexity including the topic frequencies. Topic life cycles as well as changes in thematic relationships and their evolution become perceptible. Topics found can be matched in structure as well as their temporal progression to existing events.

Abstract

This project-dissertation has been realized for Prayon which is a worldwide leader in phosphate chemistry. The objective of the project was to provide Prayon with the tools to automatically extract strategic information from the Internet and analyze it for the purpose of Competitive Intelligence. We focused on six competitors to develop an application that automatically extract strategic information from different websites and process it to deliver to Strategic Marketing and Sales Departments’ people only relevant information. The application also enables to display to the users a visualization of the information thanks to some word clouds. &#13;&#13;The application has been developed in three modules, each performing a specific part of the overall methodology. In the first module, we automated the extraction of data from websites. Then, in the second module, we created a database to store the data. Finally, in the third module, we processed the data and transform it into relevant information for Prayon.

Abstract

Digital methods such as text and data mining are utilised more and more frequently to gather knowledge, thereby offering the ability to recognise patterns in large data sets as well as being the basis of machine learning. This work examines this digital method from a copyright perspective, evaluating the significance and controlling effect of copyright barriers, the special interests involved in scientific copyright law and elements of interdisciplinary knowledge. This comprehensive analysis structures this complex legal matter, identifies deficits and suggests viable solutions. One focus lies on the long-term accessibility of the research data that are generated within this process. Immer häufiger werden digitale Methoden wie das Text- und Data-Mining zur Erkenntnisfindung eingesetzt, das die Möglichkeit bietet, Muster in großen Datensätzen zu erkennen und zugleich Grundlage des maschinellen Lernens ist. Die Arbeit betrachtet diese Methode aus urheberrechtlicher Perspektive und berücksichtigt dabei die Bedeutung und Steuerungswirkung urheberrechtlicher Schranken, die besondere Interessenlage im Wissenschaftsurheberrecht sowie interdisziplinäre Erkenntnisse. In der umfassenden Analyse wird die komplexe Rechtsmaterie strukturiert, es werden Defizite aufgezeigt und konkrete Lösungsvorschläge unterbreitet. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf der langfristigen Zugänglichkeit der erzeugten Forschungsdaten.

Abstract

An explosion of new techniques with vastly improved visualization and sensitivity is leading a veritable revolution in modern neuroanatomy. Basic questions related to cell types, input localization, and connectivity are being re-visited and tackled with significantly more accurate and higher resolution experimental approaches. A major goal of this e-Book is thus to highlight in one place the impressive range of available techniques, even as these are fast becoming routine. This is not meant as a technical review, however, but rather will project the technical explosion as indicative of a field now in a vibrant state of renewal. Thus, contributions will be mainly research articles using the newer techniques. A second goal is to showcase what has become the conspicuous interdisciplinary reach of the field: neuroanatomical standards and the close association of structure-function and underlying circuitry mechanisms are increasingly relevant to investigations in development, physiology, and disease. Another feature of this Research Topic is that it includes a breadth of cross-species contributions from investigators working with rodent, nonhuman primate, and human brains. This is important since most of our current knowledge of brain structure has been obtained from experimental animals. However, recent technical advances, coupled with researcher willingness to use the human tissue available, will undoubtedly lead to major advances in the near future regarding human brain mapping and connectomes. Thus, of particular interest will be the methods that can help to define general wiring principles in the brain, both structural and functional. Overall, the state of the field is: exciting.

Abstract

Understanding the role of humans in environmental change is one of the most pressing challenges of the 21st century. Environmental narratives - written texts with a focus on the environment - offer rich material capturing relationships between people and surroundings. We take advantage of two key opportunities for their computational analysis: massive growth in the availability of digitised contemporary and historical sources, and parallel advances in the computational analysis of natural language. We open by introducing interdisciplinary research questions related to the environment and amenable to analysis through written sources. The reader is then introduced to potential collections of narratives including newspapers, travel diaries, policy documents, scientific proposals and even fiction. We demonstrate the application of a range of approaches to analysing natural language computationally, introducing key ideas through worked examples, and providing access to the sources analysed and accompanying code. The second part of the book is centred around case studies, each applying computational analysis to some aspect of environmental narrative. Themes include the use of language to describe narratives about glaciers, urban gentrification, diversity and writing about nature and ways in which locations are conceptualised and described in nature writing. We close by reviewing the approaches taken, and presenting an interdisciplinary research agenda for future work. The book is designed to be of interest to newcomers to the field and experienced researchers, and set out in a way that it can be used as an accompanying text for graduate level courses in, for example, geography, environmental history or the digital humanities.

Abstract

The desire to know if stock markets are predictable has long attracted the interest of academic research and businesses. The first works on the subject were based on two well-known theories: random walk theory and the efficient market hypothesis (EMH). &#13;Although these theories suggest that news is not used to determine market prices, researchers are trying to demonstrate their usefulness and impact on the different variables.&#13;The purpose of this analysis is to determine whether there is a correlation between the feelings of financial tweets and stock prices. &#13;The litterature has shown a correlation between forum activity, stock volatility and trading volume.&#13;We have been able to prove the correlation using a Vector Autoregression Model.

Abstract

The digital transformation is accompanied by two simultaneous processes: digital humanities challenging the humanities, their theories, methodologies and disciplinary identities and pushing computer science to get involved in new fields. But how can qualitative and quantitative methods be usefully combined in one research project? What are the theoretical and methodological principles across all disciplinary digital approaches? This volume focusses on driving innovation and conceptualising the humanities in the 21st century. Building on the results of 10 research projects, it serves as a useful tool for designing cutting-edge research that goes beyond conventional strategies.

Abstract

A thorough understanding of pathogenic microorganisms and their interactions with host organisms is crucial to prevent infectious threats due to the fact that Pathogen-Host Interactions (PHIs) have critical roles in initiating and sustaining infections. Therefore, the analysis of infection mechanisms through PHIs is indispensable to identify diagnostic biomarkers and next-generation drug targets and then to develop strategic novel solutions against drug-resistance and for personalized therapy. Traditional approaches are limited in capturing mechanisms of infection since they investigate hosts or pathogens individually. On the other hand, the systems biology approach focuses on the whole PHI system, and is more promising in capturing infection mechanisms. Here, we bring together studies on the below listed sections to present the current picture of the research on Computational Systems Biology of Pathogen-Host Interactions: - Computational Inference of PHI Networks using Omics Data - Computational Prediction of PHIs - Text Mining of PHI Data from the Literature - Mathematical Modeling and Bioinformatic Analysis of PHIs Computational Inference of PHI Networks using Omics Data Gene regulatory, metabolic and protein-protein networks of PHI systems are crucial for a thorough understanding of infection mechanisms. Great advances in molecular biology and biotechnology have allowed the production of related omics data experimentally. Many computational methods are emerging to infer molecular interaction networks of PHI systems from the corresponding omics data. Computational Prediction of PHIs Due to the lack of experimentally-found PHI data, many computational methods have been developed for the prediction of pathogen-host protein-protein interactions. Despite being emerging, currently available experimental PHI data are far from complete for a systems view of infection mechanisms through PHIs. Therefore, computational methods are the main tools to predict new PHIs. To this end, the development of new computational methods is of great interest. Text Mining of PHI Data from Literature Despite the recent development of many PHI-specific databases, most data relevant to PHIs are still buried in the biomedical literature, which demands for the use of text mining techniques to unravel PHIs hidden in the literature. Only some rare efforts have been performed to achieve this aim. Therefore, the development of novel text mining methods specific for PHI data retrieval is of key importance for efficient use of the available literature. Mathematical Modeling and Bioinformatic Analysis of PHIs After the reconstruction of PHI networks experimentally and/or computationally, their mathematical modeling and detailed computational analysis is required using bioinformatics tools to get insights on infection mechanisms. Bioinformatics methods are increasingly applied to analyze the increasing amount of experimentally-found and computationally-predicted PHI data.
