In this paper, we apply sentiment analysis methods in the context of the first round of the 2017 Chilean elections. The purpose of this work is to estimate the voting intention associated with each candidate in order to contrast this with the results from classical methods (e.g., polls and surveys). The data are collected from Twitter, because of its high usage in Chile and in the sentiment analysis literature. We obtained tweets associated with the three main candidates: Sebastián Piñera (SP), Alejandro Guillier (AG) and Beatriz Sánchez (BS). For each candidate, we estimated the voting intention and compared it to the traditional methods. To do this, we first acquired the data and labeled the tweets as positive or negative. Afterward, we built a model using machine learning techniques. The classification model had an accuracy of 76.45% using support vector machines, which yielded the best model for our case. Finally, we use a formula to estimate the voting intention from the number of positive and negative tweets for each candidate. For the last period, we obtained a voting intention of 35.84% for SP, compared to a range of 34–44% according to traditional polls and 36% in the actual elections. For AG we obtained an estimate of 37%, compared with a range of 15.40% to 30.00% for traditional polls and 20.27% in the elections. For BS we obtained an estimate of 27.77%, compared with the range of 8.50% to 11.00% given by traditional polls and an actual result of 22.70% in the elections. These results are promising, in some cases providing an estimate closer to reality than traditional polls. Some differences can be explained due to the fact that some candidates have been omitted, even though they held a significant number of votes.

Abstract Fluid loss into formations is a common operational issue that is frequently encountered when drilling across naturally or induced fractured formations. This could pose significant operational risks, such as well-control, stuck pipe, and wellbore instability, which, in turn, lead to an increase of well time and cost. This research aims to use and evaluate different machine learning techniques, namely: support vector machines, random forests, and K-nearest neighbors in detecting loss circulation occurrences while drilling using solely drilling surface parameters. Actual field data of seven wells, which had suffered partial or severe loss circulation, were used to build predictive models, while Well-8 was used to compare the performance of the developed models. Different performance metrics were used to evaluate the performance of the developed models. Recall, precision, and F1-score measures were used to evaluate the ability of the developed model to detect loss circulation occurrences. The results showed the K-nearest neighbors classifier achieved a high F1-score of 0.912 in detecting loss circulation occurrence in the testing set, while the random forests was the second-best classifier with almost the same F1-score of 0.910. The support vector machines achieved an F1-score of 0.83 in predicting the loss circulation occurrence in the testing set. The K-nearest neighbors outperformed other models in detecting the loss circulation occurrences in Well-8 with an F1-score of 0.80. The main contribution of this research as compared to previous studies is that it identifies losses events based on real-time measurements of the active pit volume.

AbstractIt is 50 years since Sieveking et al. published their pioneering research in Nature on the geochemical analysis of artefacts from Neolithic flint mines in southern Britain. In the decades since, geochemical techniques to source stone artefacts have flourished globally, with a renaissance in recent years from new instrumentation, data analysis, and machine learning techniques. Despite the interest over these latter approaches, there has been variation in the quality with which these methods have been applied. Using the case study of flint artefacts and geological samples from England, we present a robust and objective evaluation of three popular techniques, Random Forest, K-Nearest-Neighbour, and Support Vector Machines, and present a pipeline for their appropriate use. When evaluated correctly, the results establish high model classification performance, with Random Forest leading with an average accuracy of 85% (measured through F1 Scores), and with Support Vector Machines following closely. The methodology developed in this paper demonstrates the potential to significantly improve on previous approaches, particularly in removing bias, and providing greater means of evaluation than previously utilised.

Learning Issues

Due to the vast amount of data available on the internet nowadays, it is necessary to categorise the data, and fast, accurate, and resilient algorithms for data analysis are required. Support vector machines (SVMs) are a form of machine learning technique that is commonly used to solve a variety of statistical learning issues. It's been designed as a reliable categorization tool, and it's especially useful when there's a lot of data. Machine learning is an area of artificial intelligence (AI) and computer science that focuses on using data and algorithms to mimic the way humans learn, with the goal of steadily improving accuracy. Algorithms are trained to create classifications by using statistical approaches. These should ideally have an impact on important growth measures. In this study, we found that employing the Support Vector Machine technique provides the best accuracy and efficiency for our dataset. Our work is based on the evaluation of parameters like accuracy, recall and precision.

The present paper aims in investigating the performance of state-of-the-art machine learning techniques in trading with the EUR/USD exchange rate at the ECB fixing. For this purpose, five supervised learning classification techniques (K-Nearest Neighbors algorithm, Naïve Bayesian Classifier, Artificial Neural Networks, Support Vector Machines and Random Forests) were applied in the problem of the one day ahead movement prediction of the EUR/USD exchange rate with only autoregressive terms as inputs. For comparison reasons, the performance of all machine learning techniques was benchmarked by two traditional techniques (Naïve  Strategy and moving average convergence/divergence model). Trading strategies produced by the machine learning techniques of Support Vector Machines and Random Forests clearly outperformed all other strategies in terms of annualized return and sharp ratio. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first application of Random Forests in the problem of trading with the EUR/USD exchange rate providing extremely satisfactory results.

A Current

In recent years, massive quantities of business and research data have been collected and stored, partly due to the plummeting cost of data storage. Much interest has therefore arisen in how to mine this data to provide useful information. Data mining as a discipline shares much in common with machine learning and statistics, as all of these endeavors aim to make predictions about data as well as to better understand the patterns that can be found in a particular dataset. The support vector machine (SVM) is a current machine learning technique that performs quite well in solving common data mining problems.

Support vector machines are statistical- and machine-learning techniques with the primary goal of prediction. They can be applied to continuous, binary, and categorical outcomes analogous to Gaussian, logistic, and multinomial regression. We introduce a new command for this purpose, svmachines. This package is a thin wrapper for the widely deployed libsvm (Chang and Lin, 2011, ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology 2(3): Article 27). We illustrate svmachines with two examples.
