AbstractIs academic integrity research presented from a positive integrity standpoint? This paper uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques to explore a data set of 8,507 academic integrity papers published between 1904 and 2019.Two main techniques are used to linguistically examine paper titles: (1) bigram (word pair) analysis and (2) sentiment analysis. The analysis sees the three main bigrams used in paper titles as being “academic integrity” (2.38%), “academic dishonesty” (2.06%) and “plagiarism detection” (1.05%). When only highly cited papers are considered, negative integrity bigrams dominate positive integrity bigrams. For example, the 100 most cited academic integrity papers of all time are three times more likely to have “academic dishonesty” included in their titles than “academic integrity”. Similarly, sentiment analysis sees negative sentiment outperforming positive sentiment in the most cited papers.The history of academic integrity research is seen to place the field at a disadvantage due to negative portrayals of integrity. Despite this, analysis shows that change towards positive integrity is possible. The titles of papers by the ten most prolific academic integrity researchers are found to use positive terminology in more cases that not. This suggests an approach for emerging academic integrity researchers to model themselves after.

Natural Language Processing for under-resourced languages is now a mainstream research area. However, there are limited studies on Natural Language Processing applications for many indigenous East African languages. As a contribution to covering the current gap of knowledge, this paper focuses on evaluating the application of well-established machine translation methods for one heavily under-resourced indigenous East African language called Lumasaaba. Specifically, we review the most common machine translation methods in the context of Lumasaaba including both rule-based and data-driven methods. Then we apply a state of the art data-driven machine translation method to learn models for automating translation between Lumasaaba and English using a very limited data set of parallel sentences. Automatic evaluation results show that a transformer-based Neural Machine Translation model architecture leads to consistently better BLEU scores than the recurrent neural network-based models. Moreover, the automatically generated translations can be comprehended to a reasonable extent and are usually associated with the source language input.

The use of artificial intelligence in health care has grown quickly. In this sense, we present our work related to the application of Natural Language Processing techniques, as a tool to analyze the sentiment perception of users who answered two questions from the CSQ-8 questionnaires with raw Spanish free-text. Their responses are related to mindfulness, which is a novel technique used to control stress and anxiety caused by different factors in daily life. As such, we proposed an online course where this method was applied in order to improve the quality of life of health care professionals in COVID 19 pandemic times. We also carried out an evaluation of the satisfaction level of the participants involved, with a view to establishing strategies to improve future experiences. To automatically perform this task, we used Natural Language Processing (NLP) models such as swivel embedding, neural networks, and transfer learning, so as to classify the inputs into the following three categories: negative, neutral, and positive. Due to the limited amount of data available—86 registers for the first and 68 for the second—transfer learning techniques were required. The length of the text had no limit from the user’s standpoint, and our approach attained a maximum accuracy of 93.02% and 90.53%, respectively, based on ground truth labeled by three experts. Finally, we proposed a complementary analysis, using computer graphic text representation based on word frequency, to help researchers identify relevant information about the opinions with an objective approach to sentiment. The main conclusion drawn from this work is that the application of NLP techniques in small amounts of data using transfer learning is able to obtain enough accuracy in sentiment analysis and text classification stages.

BACKGROUND Reddit, the fifth most popular website in the United States, boasts a large and engaged user base on its dermatology forums where users crowdsource free medical opinions. Unfortunately, much of the advice provided is unvalidated and could lead to inappropriate care. Initial testing has shown that artificially intelligent bots can detect misinformation on Reddit forums and may be able to produce responses to posts containing misinformation. OBJECTIVE To analyze the ability of bots to find and respond to health misinformation on Reddit’s dermatology forums in a controlled test environment. METHODS Using natural language processing techniques, we trained bots to target misinformation using relevant keywords and to post pre-fabricated responses. By evaluating different model architectures across a held-out test set, we compared performances. RESULTS Our models yielded data test accuracies ranging from 95%-100%, with a BERT fine-tuned model resulting in the highest level of test accuracy. Bots were then able to post corrective pre-fabricated responses to misinformation. CONCLUSIONS Using a limited data set, bots had near-perfect ability to detect these examples of health misinformation within Reddit dermatology forums. Given that these bots can then post pre-fabricated responses, this technique may allow for interception of misinformation. Providing correct information, even instantly, however, does not mean users will be receptive or find such interventions persuasive. Further work should investigate this strategy’s effectiveness to inform future deployment of bots as a technique in combating health misinformation. CLINICALTRIAL N/A

Abstract Objectives The objective of this study is to build and evaluate a natural language processing approach to identify medication mentions in primary care visit conversations between patients and physicians. Materials and Methods Eight clinicians contributed to a data set of 85 clinic visit transcripts, and 10 transcripts were randomly selected from this data set as a development set. Our approach utilizes Apache cTAKES and Unified Medical Language System controlled vocabulary to generate a list of medication candidates in the transcribed text and then performs multiple customized filters to exclude common false positives from this list while including some additional common mentions of the supplements and immunizations. Results Sixty-five transcripts with 1121 medication mentions were randomly selected as an evaluation set. Our proposed method achieved an F-score of 85.0% for identifying the medication mentions in the test set, significantly outperforming existing medication information extraction systems for medical records with F-scores ranging from 42.9% to 68.9% on the same test set. Discussion Our medication information extraction approach for primary care visit conversations showed promising results, extracting about 27% more medication mentions from our evaluation set while eliminating many false positives in comparison to existing baseline systems. We made our approach publicly available on the web as an open-source software. Conclusion Integration of our annotation system with clinical recording applications has the potential to improve patients’ understanding and recall of key information from their clinic visits, and, in turn, to positively impact health outcomes.

Introduction: Sentiment analysis is a complex problem whose solution essentially depends on the context, field of study andamount of text data. Analysis of publications shows that the authors often do not use the full range of possible data transformationsand their combinations. Only a part of the transformations is used, limiting the ways to develop high-quality classification models.Purpose: Developing and exploring a generalized approach to building a model, which consists in sequentially passing throughthe stages of exploratory data analysis, obtaining a basic solution, vectorization, preprocessing, hyperparameter optimization, andmodeling. Results: Comparative experiments conducted using a generalized approach for classical machine learning and deeplearning algorithms in order to solve the problem of sentiment analysis of short text messages in natural language processinghave demonstrated that the classification quality grows from one stage to another. For classical algorithms, such an increasein quality was insignificant, but for deep learning, it was 8% on average at each stage. Additional studies have shown that theuse of automatic machine learning which uses classical classification algorithms is comparable in quality to manual modeldevelopment; however, it takes much longer. The use of transfer learning has a small but positive effect on the classificationquality. Practical relevance: The proposed sequential approach can significantly improve the quality of models under developmentin natural language processing problems.
