Tweet hashtags have the potential to improve the search for information during disaster events. However, there is a large number of disaster-related tweets that do not have any user-provided hashtags. Moreover, only a small number of tweets that contain actionable hashtags are useful for disaster response. To facilitate progress on automatic identification (or extraction) of disaster hashtags for Twitter data, we construct a unique dataset of disaster-related tweets annotated with hashtags useful for filtering actionable information. Using this dataset, we further investigate Long Short-Term Memory-based models within a Multi-Task Learning framework. The best performing model achieves an F1-score as high as $92.22%$. The dataset, code, and other resources are available on Github.1

The real-time prediction of ship behavior plays an important role in navigation and intelligent collision avoidance systems. This study developed an online real-time ship behavior prediction model by constructing a bidirectional long short-term memory recurrent neural network (BI-LSTM-RNN) that is suitable for automatic identification system (AIS) date and time sequential characteristics, and for online parameter adjustment. The bidirectional structure enhanced the relevance between historical and future data, thus improving the prediction accuracy. Through the “forget gate” of the long short-term memory (LSTM) unit, the common behavioral patterns were remembered and unique behaviors were forgotten, improving the universality of the model. The BI-LSTM-RNN was trained using 2015 AIS data from Tianjin Port waters. The results indicate that the BI-LSTM-RNN effectively predicted the navigational behaviors of ships. This study contributes significantly to the increased efficiency and safety of sea operations. The proposed method could potentially be applied as the predictive foundation for various intelligent systems, including intelligent collision avoidance, vessel route planning, operational efficiency estimation, and anomaly detection systems.


Social media is a combination of different platforms where a huge amount of user-generated data is collected. People from various parts of the country express their opinions, reviews, feedback and marketing strategies through social media such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. It is vital to explore, gather data, analyze them and consolidate the people views for better decision making. Sentiment analysis is a natural language processing for information extraction that identifies the user’s views. It is used for extracting reviews and opinions about the satisfaction of products, the events, and people for understanding the current trends of product or user’s behavior. The paper reviews and analyses the existing general approaches and algorithms for sentiment analysis. The proposed system selected to perform sentiment analysis on Twitter data set is Long Short Term Memory [LSTM] and evaluated with Naive Bayes Approach.

Abstract Twitter sentiment analysis is an automated process of analyzing the text data which determining the opinion or feeling of public tweets from the various fields. For example, in marketing field, political field huge number of tweets is posting with hash tags every moment via internet from one user to another user. This sentiment analysis is a challenging task for the researchers mainly to correct interpretation of context in which certain tweet words are difficult to evaluate what truly is negative and positive statement from the huge corpus of tweet data. This problem violates the integrity of the system and the user reliability can be significantly reduced. In this paper, we identify the each tweet word and we are assigning a meaning into it. The feature work is combined with tweet words, word2vec, stop words and integrated into the deep learning techniques of Convolution neural network model and Long short Term Memory, these algorithms can identify the pattern of stop word counts with its own strategy. Those two models are well trained and applied for IMDB dataset which contains 50,000 movie reviews. With huge amount of twitter data is processed for predicting the sentimental tweets for classification. With the proposed methodology, the samples are experimentally collected from the real-time environment can be discriminated well and the efficacy of the system is improved. The result of Deep Learning algorithms aims to rate the review tweets and also able to identify movie review with testing accuracy as 87.74% and 88.02%.
