Purpose The purpose of this paper is to discuss the design, application and findings of a case study in which the application of a machine learning algorithm is utilised to identify the grievances in Twitter in an Arabian context. Design/methodology/approach To understand the characteristics of the Twitter users who expressed the identified grievances, data mining techniques and social network analysis were utilised. The study extracted a total of 23,363 tweets and these were stored as a data set. The machine learning algorithm applied to this data set was followed by utilising a data mining process to explore the characteristics of the Twitter feed users. The network of the users was mapped and the individual level of interactivity and network density were calculated. Findings The machine learning algorithm revealed 12 themes all of which were underpinned by the coalition of Arab countries blockade of Qatar. The data mining analysis revealed that the tweets could be clustered in three clusters, the main cluster included users with a large number of followers and friends but who did not mention other users in their tweets. The social network analysis revealed that whilst a large proportion of users engaged in direct messages with others, the network ties between them were not registered as strong. Practical implications Borum (2011) notes that invoking grievances is the first step in the radicalisation process. It is hoped that by understanding these grievances, the study will shed light on what radical groups could invoke to win the sympathy of aggrieved people. Originality/value In combination, the machine learning algorithm offered insights into the grievances expressed within the tweets in an Arabian context. The data mining and the social network analyses revealed the characteristics of the Twitter users highlighting identifying and managing early intervention of radicalisation.

Recruitment System

We evaluate the feasibility of using Facebook data to enhance the effectiveness of a recruitment system, especially for résumé verification and recognize the personality by using social network analysis methods. In the industries employee’s personality is very important in the workplace which will help to growth of the company and give more good service to the client. Currently resume verification is based on trustful third parties who does background verification. Based on this report is sent to the company who is hiring the employee decides to keep employee or not. This manual system usually takes lots of time and this system generally wont display candidates’ nature towards society (in short how he behaves in society weather he posts something wrong on social media in simple words his/her personality). Social media now a days is huge platform where user generally spends too much time on social media like Facebook, LinkedIn etc. like posting a page, commenting, liking the post, certification uploading, adding friends. We are going to design such a system that verifies genuineness of user by scraping or exploring data from Facebook or LinkedIn or both. we are exploring post of person and classifies it into is it technology related, violence related and many more what are the comments he gives on his post how he reacts his language of handling a query will be parsed and classified using machine learning algorithm of previously trained dataset using SVM. And at the end we will show this information to the company to make their own decision based on this result.

Colombian Government

To reduce the rate of contagion by Covid-19, the Colombian government has adopted, among other measures, for mandatory isolation, with divided opinions, because despite helping to reduce the spread of the virus, it generates mental and economic problems that are difficult to overcome. The objective of this document was to analyze the underlying sentiments in the Twitter comments related to isolation, identifying the topics and words most frequently used in this context. A machine learning algorithm was built to identify sentiments in 72,564 posts and a social network analysis was applied establishing the most frequent topics in the data sets. The results suggest that the algorithm is highly accurate in classifying feelings. Also, as the isolation extends, comments related to the quarantine grow proportionally. Fear was identified as the predominant feeling throughout the period of confinement in Colombia.

Feature Selection Approach

Purpose According to the World Health Organization, by 2025, the contribution of chronic disease is expected to rise by 73% compared to all deaths and it is considered as global burden of disease with a rate of 60%. These diseases persist for a longer duration of time, which are almost incurable and can only be controlled. Cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease (CKD) and diabetes mellitus are considered as three major chronic diseases that will increase the risk among the adults, as they get older. CKD is considered a major disease among all these chronic diseases, which will increase the risk among the adults as they get older. Overall 10% of the population of the world is affected by CKD and it is likely to double in the year 2030. The paper aims to propose novel feature selection approach in combination with the machine-learning algorithm which can early predict the chronic disease with utmost accuracy. Hence, a novel feature selection adaptive probabilistic divergence-based feature selection (APDFS) algorithm is proposed in combination with the hyper-parameterized logistic regression model (HLRM) for the early prediction of chronic disease. Design/methodology/approach A novel feature selection APDFS algorithm is proposed which explicitly handles the feature associated with the class label by relevance and redundancy analysis. The algorithm applies the statistical divergence-based information theory to identify the relationship between the distant features of the chronic disease data set. The data set required to experiment is obtained from several medical labs and hospitals in India. The HLRM is used as a machine-learning classifier. The predictive ability of the framework is compared with the various algorithm and also with the various chronic disease data set. The experimental result illustrates that the proposed framework is efficient and achieved competitive results compared to the existing work in most of the cases. Findings The performance of the proposed framework is validated by using the metric such as recall, precision, F1 measure and ROC. The predictive performance of the proposed framework is analyzed by passing the data set belongs to various chronic disease such as CKD, diabetes and heart disease. The diagnostic ability of the proposed approach is demonstrated by comparing its result with existing algorithms. The experimental figures illustrated that the proposed framework performed exceptionally well in prior prediction of CKD disease with an accuracy of 91.6. Originality/value The capability of the machine learning algorithms depends on feature selection (FS) algorithms in identifying the relevant traits from the data set, which impact the predictive result. It is considered as a process of choosing the relevant features from the data set by removing redundant and irrelevant features. Although there are many approaches that have been already proposed toward this objective, they are computationally complex because of the strategy of following a one-step scheme in selecting the features. In this paper, a novel feature selection APDFS algorithm is proposed which explicitly handles the feature associated with the class label by relevance and redundancy analysis. The proposed algorithm handles the process of feature selection in two separate indices. Hence, the computational complexity of the algorithm is reduced to O(nk+1). The algorithm applies the statistical divergence-based information theory to identify the relationship between the distant features of the chronic disease data set. The data set required to experiment is obtained from several medical labs and hospitals of karkala taluk ,India. The HLRM is used as a machine learning classifier. The predictive ability of the framework is compared with the various algorithm and also with the various chronic disease data set. The experimental result illustrates that the proposed framework is efficient and achieved competitive results are compared to the existing work in most of the cases.
