Detection of Hate Speech and Offensive Language in Twitter Using Sentiment Analysis
Authors: V Pavithra.
Published: August 2021

Abstract: The dramatic development of online media, for example, Twitter and local area gatherings has upset correspondence and content distributing, but at the same time is progressively misused for the spread of disdain discourse and the association of disdain based exercises. The secrecy and portability managed by such media has made the rearing and spread of disdain discourse – in the long run prompting disdain wrongdoing – easy in a virtual land scape past the domains of conventional law requirement. Existing techniques in the identification of disdain discourse principally cast the issue as a regulated report grouping task [33]. These can be partitioned into two classifications: one depends on manual element designing that are then devoured by calculations, for example, SVM, Naive Bayes, and Logistic Regression [3, 9, 11, 15, 19, 23, 35–39] (exemplary techniques); the other addresses the later profound learning worldview that utilizes neural organizations to consequently learn multi-facets of dynamic highlights from crude information [13, 26, 30, 34] (profound learning strategies). In this technique We show that it is a significantly more testing task, as our examination of the language in the commonplace datasets shows that disdain discourse needs interesting, discriminative highlights and hence is found in the 'long tail' in a dataset that is hard to find. We then, at that point propose Deep Neural Network structures filling in as highlight extractors that are especially powerful for catching the semantics of disdain discourse. Our techniques are assessed on the biggest assortment of disdain discourse datasets dependent on Twitter, and are demonstrated to have the option to beat best in class by up to 6 rate focuses in large scale normal F1, or 9 rate focuses in the seriously difficult instance of recognizing derisive substance. As an intermediary to evaluate and think about the semantic attributes of disdain and non-disdain Tweets, we additionally propose to contemplate the 'uniqueness' of the jargon for each class.

Authors: Vemula Suchith Reddy
Published: August 2021

Abstract: The relevance of analysing user-generated data on the internet has lately increased owing to the vast amount of information that can be obtained via proper study of such data. The majority of this information can be found on social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. Opinions and reviews on goods, movies, prescriptions, hotels, and other items are among the data accessible on such platforms. Companies are increasingly relying on data mining and analysis to get a better understanding of public opinion on a certain topic. There has been sufficient study on the use of sentiment analysis in many areas such as product reviews, movies, hotels, and so on. However, in the field of medicine, such techniques must be given more weight, since the US Food and Medication Administration has done multiple research on the consequences of adverse drug responses on patients. Pharmaceutical firms must study the impact of regularly used pharma products on patients in order to understand the good and bad impacts of medications on patients. The goal of this study is to use ML models to analyse the review of patient evaluations in order to evaluate if the opinions represented in the reviews are positive (or) negative.

Fuzzy Multi-Objective Genetic Algorithm Based Resource Constrained Time-Cost Trade-Off Model under Uncertain Environment
Authors: Sharma Ashish
Published: August 2021

Abstract: In every construction project, the time and cost are the two most important objectives/factors to be considered. Clients and contractors should strive to optimize the project time and cost to maximize the return. Resources are also one of the major constraints of the construction projects. In recent years, several studies have been conducted to optimize the time and cost of project under constraint conditions of resources. Since most studies assume the time and cost as deterministic parameters, uncertainties should be considered in estimating the time and cost of the project's activities when minimizing the duration and cost of the project. For this purpose, this paper embeds the fuzzy logic to handle the uncertainties in estimating the time and cost. Besides, the multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) is used to develop the resourceconstrained time-cost trade-off model. Alpha-cut approach is utilized to define the accepted risk level of decision maker. The efficiency of the proposed model is demonstrated through solvinga case study project of highway construction. The results of case study project provide a set of Pareto-optimal solutions. The developed model encourage the decision making process by choosing specified risk levels and utilizing the related Pareto-front. Keywords: Construction projects, time-cost trade-off, uncertainties, fuzzy logic, MOGA,Pareto-optimal solution.

Effect of environment on the interferometry of clocks
Authors: Verma Harshit , Zych Magdalena , Costa Fabio
Published: August 2021

Quantum interference of "clocks", namely of particles with time-evolving internal degrees of freedom (DOFs), is a promising avenue to test genuine general relativistic effects in quantum systems. The clock acquires which path information while experiencing different proper times on traversing the arms of the interferometer, leading to a drop in its path visibility. We consider scenarios where the clock is subject to environmental noise as it transits through the interferometer. In particular, we develop a generalized formulation of interferometric visibility affected by noise on the clock. We find that, for small noise and small proper time difference between the arms, the noise further reduces the visibility, while in more general situations it can either increase or reduce the visibility. As an example, we investigate the effect of a thermal environment constituted by a single field mode and show that the visibility drops further as the temperature is increased. Additionally, by considering noise models based on standard quantum channels, we show that interferometric visibility can increase or decrease depending on the type of noise and also the time scale and transition probabilities. The quantification of the effect of noise on the visibility – particularly in the case of a thermal environment paves the way for a better estimate on the expected outcome in an actual experiment.

Cholecalciferol was found to degrade significantly under Photolytic, Thermal and Alkaline stress conditions. The degradation products were well resolved from Cholecalciferol and its impurities. For each stress condition, peak purity of Cholecalciferol was assessed using the Photodiode Array detector and found homogeneous in nature. The mass balance for stress study was found in between 95% and 105%. Thus, proving the stability indicating nature of the analytical method. The developed method was validated as per ICH guidelines. The method found accurate, precise, linear, robust, rugged, specific and stability indicating in nature.
An analysis of the performance of the agro-food industry in the domestic and international markets of Côte d’Ivoire
Authors: Coulibaly Noufou , Koné Siaka , Djina Djolo , Berté Kama , Yapi Yapo
Published: August 2021

Since its independence in 1960, C?te d?Ivoire has opted for an industrial
policy that has given rise to two major types of agrofood industry. The
first is small-scale units owned by nationals and the second is agro-food
industries owned by large international firms that mainly export their
products. This strategy has led to commodity specialisation that
deteriorates the terms of trade. Thus, despite a significant industrial
sector, the country suffers from deteriorating trade terms due to an overly
extroverted economy, the corollary of which is over-indebtedness. This paper
compares the performance of domestic and international markets of C?te
d?Ivoire to identify the type of agro-food industry that should be promoted
for development. The ripple effects in domestic and international markets
are estimated and compared using the Leontief model and data from the C?te
d?Ivoire Input-Output Table of 2018. We show that the cocoa and coffee
processing branch of the agro-food industry is commercially
outward-oriented, the oilseed industry is commercially mixed or
dual-oriented, and the other branches are commercially inward-oriented. The
ripple effects of the domestic market are almost four times higher than
those of the external market. The high rate of population growth, galloping
urbanization and the social nature of food are key determinants of the
findings. We conclude that the domestic market better stimulates the
development of the agro-food industry. We therefore recommend a strategy of
orienting products towards domestic and West African markets, which could
lead the country to sustainable economic development more rapidly.
Labour market returns to health capital during childhood: Evidence from Medicaid introduction
Authors: Noghanibehambari Hamid
Published: August 2021

Health capital development during childhood can affect later-life outcomes.
This paper examines the long-term effects of the introduction of Medicaid
during the 1960s as one of the earliest attempts in US history to provide
publicly financed health insurance for the poor. Using a large panel dataset
and a difference-in-differences- in-differences identification strategy, I
show that exposure to Medicaid during ages 0-5 has sizable and significant
effects on economic and non-economic outcomes throughout ages 25-55,
including income, employment, education, disability, and wealth. Exposure to
Medicaid among fully eligible cohorts is associated with roughly 0.4
percentage higher wage income, equivalent to an increase of $145 above the
mean of annual wages. It also implies a minimum of 7.8% externality of the
programme in labour market wages.
Remittances and health outcomes in Sub-Saharan African countries: Understanding the role of financial development and institutional quality
Authors: Bare Uweis , Bani Yasmin , Ismail Normaz , Rosland Anitha
Published: August 2021

Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) is one of the highest recipients of remittances;
however, this is inconsistent with the region?s growth and the state of its
weak healthcare systems. This paper therefore analyses the effect of
remittances on health outcomes for 39 selected SSA countries over the period
1996 to 2016. It considers the channels through which remittances affect
health outcomes, including financial development and institutional quality.
Using dynamic panel estimation, we find that remittances sustain health
outcomes, while both financial development and institutional quality
complement remittances in this respect. SSA countries should therefore
continue to improve their financial sectors and develop the quality of
institutions to an adequate level. Achieving sound financial systems and
institutions would both allow and attract a substantial amount of
remittances, benefitting human capital and health outcomes and alleviating
poverty.

Published: August 2021

Los productos derivados de la caña de azúcar (Saccharum officinarum L) conforman una de las agroindustrias rurales de mayor tradición en Colombia. Con el fin de establecer los principales indicadores y protocolos que permitan la caracterización bromatológica, fitoquímica y antioxidante de productos derivados de S. officinarum, se realizó un rastreo bibliográfico a través de la base documental del Icontec y Scopus, en el periodo comprendido entre enero de 1990 y febrero de 2021. Lo anterior, bajo lineamientos que permitieran establecer un panorama mundial sobre las tendencias de investigación y desarrollo, análisis de productos finales e identificación de los principales protocolos normalizados y no normalizados. Fue así como se lograron identificar las principales NTC (Normas Técnicas Colombianas) y los protocolos más empleados para la cuantificación de los indicadores fisicoquímicos y de algunos metabolitos de interés, confirmando y estableciendo sus efectos positivos para la salud animal y humana, como potenciador inmunológico, antitóxico, citoprotector, anticariógeno y antioxidante. Adicionalmente, se logró determinar que los metales pesados (plomo, mercurio, cadmio, arsénico), furfural, 5-hidroximetilfurfural y acrilamida son los principales contaminantes sobre los cuales se debe establecer una estrategia de mitigación. Con esto, se hace evidente la necesidad de generar una política nacional que posibilite cuantificar los indicadores fisicoquímicos exigidos, el contenido de compuestos bioactivos y la presencia de contaminantes peligrosos en los productos derivados de la caña de azúcar, con el fin de dar cumplimiento a la normativa legal para la distribución y comercialización de productos azucarados en el mercado nacional e internacional y, por qué no, iniciar su diversificación.
Older people’s use of mobility aids in the built environment
Authors:   , Rogers Allyson
Published: August 2021

The world population is ageing, by both number and share of older people (WHO 2013), leading to ageing issues being increasingly discussed within transport and mobility fields (Murray 2016; Schwanen & Paez, 2010). As those over 70 are the group most likely to have mobility and accessibility issues, there is a need to look at the wider relationship between mobility and ageing in relation to health and well-being (Musselwhite 2016). The social model of disability and resulting accessibility legislation has heralded a great deal of improvement for the inclusion of those with disabilities, but there seems to be little attention paid to emotional or psychological needs of people with physical impairments (Oliver, 2013), or disability and mobility aid use by older people (Jönson & Taghizadeh Larsson, 2009; Minkler & Fadem, 2002; Phillips, Ajrouch, & Hillcoat-Nallétamby, 2010; Raymond, Grenier, & Hanley, 2014). From the perspective of mobility aid provision, outcomes are measured in terms of independence for user, without considering the impact of this functionality on mobility aid user or carer, family or social life (Hammel et al, 2013). This study has taken an ethnographic grounded theory approach using observation, sound recording, photography, storytelling and discussion as methods for data collection. People who use mobility aids (n=11) were recruited to give accounts of mobility aid use during daily routine activities, along with the accounts of some of their family members and carers (n=6). Constant comparative analysis through coding and revisiting the field on an iterative basis was employed to describe and begin to understand mobility aid use by older people in the built environment. A complex and interlinking array of experiences and obstacles to inclusion was found for this group of people on individual, relational and infrastructural levels, with themes of identity, relationships and infrastructure and interlinking systems emerging from the data. The findings contribute information regarding a complex relationship between mobility aid use and ageing. The impact of reduced mobility and mobility aid use on identity and relationships is exacerbated by ineffective or inconsistent policies and systems. Social, psychological, emotional and physical costs of unequal access are being met by older mobility aid users and their carers. The implications of these findings are that this area requires more attention from both research and policy and planning arenas to ensure older people who use mobility aids are appropriately accommodated in the built environment. Policy and planning are found to not consistently provide a cohesively supportive environment for older people who use mobility aids to effectively participate socially.

Published: August 2021

Research has been carried out to determine the optimum conditions for making quicklime (CaO) using the Taguchi Method. CaO is the burning result of limestone (CaCO_3) in calcination process by releasing of CO_2 gas until CaO solids occur. The limestone was calcined at 950^o c. The Taguchi Method is a quality improvement technique with the selection of the most influential parameters of the making of process CaO. The parameters are particle size, CaO mass, heating temperature and stirring time. The XRF results show that the levels of CaO after the Taguchi Method design has increased from 98.779% to 98.814%. The XRD results show that the CaO phase is amorphous. The phase which were formed by calcination are Lime (CaO), Quartz (SiO_2) and Hematite (〖Fe〗_2 O_3). Based on the SEM results, the morphology of CaCO_3 has an irregular particle size and tends to be a granular solid due to the presence of impurity. Meanwhile, the results of the EDS analysis show that the content of Calcium (Ca) is quite high. From the design results of the Taguchi Method, the optimum conditions is obtained at a particle size of 140 mesh, 75 gr CaO mass, heating temperature 70^o c and stirring time 0,5 hour.

In this research, the water turbidity measurement tool based on Arduino Uno has been designed and built using phototransistors and infrared LEDs. This measuring instrument consists of a series of infrared sensors, Arduino as a process, LCD I2C as a value viewer, Micro SD as a data storage, and RTC as a timer. This study used two water samples with various concentrations. The sample used, namely distilled water plus impurities in the form of soil and ash. The distilled water used is still 100 ml with variations in the concentration of impurities ranging from 0,1-0,9 gr. Sensor test results show that the greater the turbidity level, the greater the voltage obtained. Sensor scanning ranges from 2,02 V-4,00 V for groundwater and 2,02 V-4,31 V for ash water. The reading uses a standard measuring instrument for groundwater ranging from 0 NTU to 331,4 NTU, while for ash water ranging from 0 NTU to 284,4 NTU. Data from the sensor test results in an equation used to convert the artificial measuring instrument's voltage value into a turbidity value. Then, data is taken using the same sample, so groundwater's turbidity value was obtained from 0 NTU to 318,94 NTU while for ash water from 0 NTU to 285,13 NTU. Based on the results, average accuracy for water was obtained. Soil amounted to 94,66%, while for ash water was 96,63%.

ISLAM NUSANTARA Sebuah upaya Alternatif Kontra Ideologi Radikalisme Dan Terorisme
Authors: Iqbal Mahathir Muhammad
Published: August 2021

Kita sangat memerlukan narasi-narasi alternatif yang mampu melumpuhkan propaganda kaum ekstremis dan reproduksi narasi kekerasan. Tema Islam Nusantara ini jadi sangat penting karena dua hal. Pertama, konteks global. Konteks global ini harus jadi keprihatinan bersama karena Islam sebagai agama rahmatan lil alamin telah dicemarkan sedemikian rupa oleh kelompok-kelompok ekstrem, dengan menampilkan wajah Islam yang beringas dan menyeramkan. Mereka menganggap hanya paham dan kelompok mereka yang paling benar, sedangkan paham dan kelompok lain dianggap sesat dan kafir sekalipun sesama Muslim. Kelompok ini kemudian dikenal dengan al-takfiriyyun. Kedua, konteks nasional. Harus diakui konteks global tersebut juga menjalar ke ruang republik. Secara ideologis dan teologis, paradigma "Negara Islam" bukanlah hal yang baru dalam perjalanan sejarah republik. Mereka yang mengamini ideologi tersebut sudah tumbuh benih-benihnya sejak lama dan terus berkembang meskipun secara sembunyi-sembunyi.

BASIS TEOLOGIS BAGI EKOLOGI DI INDONESIA

Selama ini, pendekatan dalam memahami teori lingkungan berbasis pada analisis terpisah ekologi dari manusia. Sehingga model antisipasinya pun tidak terintegrasi satu dengan lainnya. Situasi demikian, memungkinkan adanya kebutuhan pendekatan lain di luar perspektif mainstream, memposisikan manusia dan ekologi sebagai satu kesatuan alam, Postmodernisme menawarkan upaya memahami hal ini, ia menawarkan pendekatan, menolak diskursus pencerahan yang diusung oleh teoritisi modernis. Frank C Lyotard, seorang posmodernis berupaya membongkar metodologi modernism dan mengklaim sebagai disiplin teori yang telah gagal membangun peradaban manusia. Pelajaran penting yang dipetik dari kaum postmodernis, bahwa mereka tak lagi memahami modern, termasuk perspektifmya, sebagai satu-satunya cara pandang tepat memahami krisis ekologi, kaum postmodern menawarkan satu metodologi dengan titik tekannya, manusia kembali pada kearifan tradisional. Bagian terkait, bagi kaum spiritualis, meski tak selalu menganjurkan harus kembali ke tradisional, ia lebih menekankan pada upaya penyatuan manusia dengan ekologi. Argumentasinya berangkat dari surah Al-Qashash : 77, bahwa lingkungan hidup sebagai satu sistem kehidupan dari berbagai elemen saling mempengaruhi satu dengan lainnya. Sehingga tak satupun elemen kehidupan yang mencapai ruang alam semesta bersifat independen, itu sebabnya, manusia dilarang berbuat kerusakan sekecil apapun, Kerusakan satu elemen bumi otomatis merusak ekosistem lain didalamnya
