Actor Network

Background: Over the years, big data analytics has been statically carried out in a programmed way, which does not allow for translation of data sets from a subjective perspective. This approach affects an understanding of why and how data sets manifest themselves into various forms in the way that they do. This has a negative impact on the accuracy, redundancy and usefulness of data sets, which in turn affects the value of operations and the competitive effectiveness of an organisation. Also, the current single approach lacks a detailed examination of data sets, which big data deserve in order to improve purposefulness and usefulness.Objective: The purpose of this study was to propose a multilevel approach to big data analysis. This includes examining how a sociotechnical theory, the actor network theory (ANT), can be complementarily used with analytic tools for big data analysis.Method: In the study, the qualitative methods were employed from the interpretivist approach perspective.Results: From the findings, a framework that offers big data analytics at two levels, micro- (strategic) and macro- (operational) levels, was developed. Based on the framework, a model was developed, which can be used to guide the analysis of heterogeneous data sets that exist within networks.Conclusion: The multilevel approach ensures a fully detailed analysis, which is intended to increase accuracy, reduce redundancy and put the manipulation and manifestation of data sets into perspectives for improved organisations’ competitiveness.

The goal of the study was to identify big data analysis issues that can impact empirical research in the healthcare industry. To accomplish that the author analyzed big data related keywords from a literature review of peer reviewed journal articles published since 2011. Topics, methods and techniques were summarized along with strengths and weaknesses. A panel of subject matter experts was interviewed to validate the intermediate results and synthesize the key problems that would likely impact researchers conducting quantitative big data analysis in healthcare studies. The systems thinking action research method was applied to identify and describe the hidden issues. The findings were similar to the extant literature but three hidden fatal issues were detected. Methodical and statistical control solutions were proposed to overcome the three fatal healthcare big data analysis issues.

Abstract Introdution Today, with the advent of technologies and the production of huge amounts of data, Big Data analytics has received much attention especially in healthcare. Understanding this field and recognizing its benefits, applications and challenges provide useful background for conducting efficient research. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the students' familiarity from different universities of Mashhad with the benefits, applications and challenges of Big Data analysis.Method This is a cross-sectional study that was conducted on students of Medical Engineering, Medical Informatics, Medical Records and Health Information Management in Mashhad-Iran. A questionnaire was designed based on literature review in pubmed, google scholar, science direct and EMBASE databases, using Delphi method and presence of 10 experts from different fields of study. The designed questionnaire evaluated the opinion of students regarding benefits, challenges and applications of Big Data analytics. 200 students participated in the study and completed the designed questionnaire. Participants' opinions were evaluated descriptively and analytically. Result Most students were between 20 and 30 years old. 63% of them were male and 43.5% had no work experience. Current and previous field of study of most of the students were HIT, HIM, and Medical Records. Most of the participants in this study were undergraduates. 61.5% were economically active, 54.5% were exposed to Big Data. The mean scores of participants in benefits, applications, and challenges section were 3.71, 3.68, and 3.71, respectively, and process management was significant in different age groups (p=0.046), information, modeling, research, and health informatics across different fields of studies were significant (p=0.015, 0.033, 0.001, 0.024) Information and research were significantly different between groups (p=0.043 and 0.019), research in groups with / without economic activity was significant (p= 0.017) and information in exposure / non exposure to Big Data groups was significant (p=0.02). Conclusion Despite the importance and benefits of Big Data analytics, students' lack of familiarity with the necessity and importance of these analytics in industries and research is significant. The field of study and level of study do not appear to have an effect on the degree of knowledge of individuals regarding Big Data analysis. The design of technical training courses in this field may increase the level of knowledge of individuals regarding Big Data analysis.

Methods: Based on input from experts in the equity domain, the data are verified statistically using data mining techniques. Specifically, ten years of daily derivative data is used for training and testing purposes. The methods that are adopted for this research work include model generation using ARIMA, Hadoop framework which comprises mapping and reducing for big data analysis. Results: The results of this work are the observation of a trend that indicates the rise and fall of price in derivatives , generation of time-series similarity graph and plotting of frequency of temporal data. Conclusion: Big data analytics is an underexplored topic in the Indian derivative market and the results from this paper can be used by investors to earn both short-term and long-term benefits.

Abstract Knowledge

Big Data Analytics and Deep Learning are not supposed to be two entirely different concepts. Big Data means extremely huge large data sets that can be analyzed to find patterns, trends. One technique that can be used for data analysis so that able to help us find abstract patterns in Big Data is Deep Learning. If we apply Deep Learning to Big Data, we can find unknown and useful patterns that were impossible so far. With the help of Deep Learning, AI is getting smart. There is a hypothesis in this regard, the more data, the more abstract knowledge. So a handy survey of Big Data, Deep Learning and its application in Big Data is necessary.

The COVID-19 epidemic has caused a large number of human losses and havoc in the economic, social, societal, and health systems around the world. Controlling such epidemic requires understanding its characteristics and behavior, which can be identified by collecting and analyzing the related big data. Big data analytics tools play a vital role in building knowledge required in making decisions and precautionary measures. However, due to the vast amount of data available on COVID-19 from various sources, there is a need to review the roles of big data analysis in controlling the spread of COVID-19, presenting the main challenges and directions of COVID-19 data analysis, as well as providing a framework on the related existing applications and studies to facilitate future research on COVID-19 analysis. Therefore, in this paper, we conduct a literature review to highlight the contributions of several studies in the domain of COVID-19-based big data analysis. The study presents as a taxonomy several applications used to manage and control the pandemic. Moreover, this study discusses several challenges encountered when analyzing COVID-19 data. The findings of this paper suggest valuable future directions to be considered for further research and applications.
