Detection and Analysis of Depression Level Using Social Media

Detection of depression through messages sent by a user on social media are often a fancy task because of the recognition and trends in them. In recent years, messages and social media has over up being a really shut illustration of a person’s life and his status. This is often an enormous stockpile of information a couple of person’s behaviour and might be used for detection of varied mental sicknesses (depression in our case) victimisation tongue process. This project is regarding constructing a model victimisation NLP to predict such mental disorders. Short-term memory networks square measure well-suited to classifying, process and creating predictions supported statistic knowledge, since there are often lags of unknown length between necessary events during a statistic.

The wrong vaccine: custody time limits and loss of liberty during Covid-19

In a context where the criminal courts have been drastically affected by coronavirus, this paper seeks to demonstrate that the presumption of innocence risks becoming a further casualty of Covid-19. It will argue that prolonged pre-trial detention of unconvicted defendants has been sanctioned by the senior judiciary under the Custody Time Limit (CTL) Regulations. Following a series of important CTL decisions, a universal position of the senior judiciary, one supportive of government, is emerging: despite the case backlog resulting in defendants facing trial delays of unknown length, the exceptional circumstances of the pandemic which the executive faces, amounts to ‘good cause’ to extend CTLs. It will be argued that the correct approach for courts to follow is that that they must hear evidence that justifies why no court rooms are available before using that to mandate extensions. It will be further contended that these far-reaching decisions came from the senior judiciary's perceived need to mop up the problem posed by widespread refusals to extend CTLs, raising questions as to their ability to act independently of political pressure.

Leading through COVID-19: New Zealand secondary principals describe their reality

School principals were required to engage in crisis leadership throughout New Zealand’s first seven-week COVID-19 lockdown in March 2020. Eighteen school principals from a range of secondary schools were interviewed about their experiences. The challenges they faced included preparing students and teachers for online teaching and learning for an unknown length of time, supporting student and staff wellbeing, and communicating clearly and compassionately to all stakeholder groups. Their opportunities related to strengthening digital teaching and learning, distributing leadership and resetting direction. This study identifies a number of implications for future crisis leadership practice including: preparing, attending to wellbeing, communicating effectively, leading collaboratively and taking opportunities.

More on manipulating text.

This chapter provides more information on manipulating text, presenting two examples. Example 1 focuses on standardizing names in a phylogenetic tree description, using R to reformat taxon names, create lists, sort data and use wildcards for when some things you are interested in don't have exactly the same length. The example tree description concerns parasitoids of caterpillars at a study site that have been DNA barcoded and their possible taxonomic identities added automatically. Example 2 deals with substrings of unknown length. This example search for a numeric substring of unknown length but with a standard prefix, using data of some DNA sequences from a set of Aleiodes wasps. The trimming of white spaces and/or tabs, use of wildcards to locate internal letter strings, finding of suffixes, prefixes and specifying of letters, numbers and punctuation, manipulation of character case, ignoring of character case, and specifying of particular and modifiable character classes are briefly described.

An experimental study of cable tension identification based on measurements of mode shapes

<p>Cable tension identification based on mode shapes extracted from vibration measurements is a relatively new method. In this method, the cable is equivalent to a beam model hinged at its ends and under axial tension with an unknown length to eliminate the effects of boundary conditions. This study focuses on the influences of sensor arrangement in the measurements on the accuracy of the tension identification. For this purpose, full-scale cable experiments have been carried out, where a number of sensors were attached to the cable to record cable acceleration during artificial excitation. The eigenvalue realization algorithm (ERA) has then been applied to identify the mode shapes and frequencies of the cables from the multiple acceleration measurements. The effects of different sensor arrangement schemes and cable tension identification method based on higher- order modes are compared and discussed.</p>

Psychosocial Support in Children Victims of Mount Sinabung Eruption

The eruption of Mount Sinabung in Tanah Karo, North Sumatera, which occurred in November 2013 has caused some people to evacuate to avoid the risk of greater disaster. The eruption produced psychological impacts not only on the parents but also on the children, due to the disruption of life activities, radical life changes and living with other citizens, in unknown length of time. Based on the situation, the Faculty of Psychology, University of Sumatra Utara as part of the USU’s Sinabung Task Force took the initiative to serve the people affected by the eruption of Sinabung, especially the children in the form of Psychosocial Support for Children Victims of Sinabung Eruption activities. The activities performed was psychoeducation and psychological assistance. Psychoeducation assistance was provided in the form of training for trainers (TOT) for 15 people from community cadres in Sinabung, while child psychological assistance was done in the form of trauma healing activity in 250 children in evacuation. This services resulted in cadres and children getting their spirits back to focus on the purpose of life they must achieve with their current limitations, more calm, less stress level, more excited, and feel motivated to go back to life with hope for a better future still exist.

Asymptomatic spread of huanglongbing and implications for disease control

Huanglongbing (HLB) is a bacterial infection of citrus trees transmitted by the Asian citrus psyllid Diaphorina citri. Mitigation of HLB has focused on spraying of insecticides to reduce the psyllid population and removal of trees when they first show symptoms of the disease. These interventions have been only marginally effective, because symptoms of HLB do not appear on leaves for months to years after initial infection. Limited knowledge about disease spread during the asymptomatic phase is exemplified by the heretofore unknown length of time from initial infection of newly developing cluster of young leaves, called flush, by adult psyllids until the flush become infectious. We present experimental evidence showing that young flush become infectious within 15 d after receiving an inoculum of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (bacteria). Using this critical fact, we specify a microsimulation model of asymptomatic disease spread and intensity in a grove of citrus trees. We apply a range of psyllid introduction scenarios to show that entire groves can become infected with up to 12,000 psyllids per tree in less than 1 y, before most of the trees show any symptoms. We also show that intervention strategies that reduce the psyllid population by 75% during the flushing periods can delay infection of a full grove, and thereby reduce the amount of insecticide used throughout a year. This result implies that psyllid surveillance and control, using a variety of recently available technologies, should be used from the initial detection of invasion and throughout the asymptomatic period.
