Authors: YILDIZ Zehra
Published: May 2022

Amaç: Bu çalışmada çimento üretim sektöründe farklı ünitelerde çalışan personelin maruz kaldığı toz düzeyleri ulusal ve uluslararası mevzuatlara göre değerlendirilmiştir. Ayrıca, iş yeri hekimi tetkikleri ve muayanesi sonucunda toz maruziyetininçalışan sağlığı üzerine etkileri belirlenmiştir. Gereç ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada, bir çimento fabrikasında kişisel solunabilir ve ortamda toplam toz konsantrasyonu ölçümleri yapılmıştır. İşletmede, çeşitli ünitelerde çalışan 15 farklı kişide kişisel solunabilir toz konsantrasyonu ve fabrika sahasında 31 farklı ortamda toplam toz konsantrasyonları Solunabilir/Toplam Toz Ölçümü Metodu standardına uygun olarak yapılmıştır. Bulgular: Kişisel solunabilir toz konsantrasyonu ölçümü yapılan 15 çalışanın ikisinde yasal mevzuat sınır değeri, üç çalışanın İngiltere İş Sağlığı ve Güvenliği Kuruluşu sınır değeri ve dört çalışanda ise Amerikan Ulusal İş Hijyenistleri Konferansı sınır değerinin üzerinde olduğu belirlenmiştir. Ortamda toplam toz konsantrasyonu en fazla değirmen ünitelerinde olduğu belirlenmiştir. En fazla kişisel solunabilir toz konsantrasyonu, kırıcı ünitesinde çalışan personellerde belirlenmiş olup, bu değer tüm mevzuatın üzerindedir. Kişisel solunabilir toz konsantrasyonu ölçülen 15 çalışanın PA akciğer grafileri sonucunda en tozlu ortamda çalışan bir çalışan Kategori 1, diğer tüm çalışanlar ise Kategori 0 olarak raporlanmıştır. Sonuç: Özellikle farin değirmeni ve çimento değirmeni gibi ünitelerde biriken tozların ortamdan uzaklaştırılmaması ile maruziyet artmıştır. Kırıcı ünitelerinde tozumayı engellemek ya da azaltmak için su pulverize edilerek malzeme daha nemli hale getirilmeli ve değirmen ünitelerinde düzenli olarak ortam temizliği yapılmalıdır. Kategori 1 çalışanın işletmenin 2 mg/m3 altında olan başka bir ünitede çalıştırılmak üzere iş ünitesi değiştirilmiş ve toz maruziyeti minimize edilmiştir. Kırıcı ve değirmen ünitelerinde çalışanların iş yeri hekimi tarafından daha sık olarak tibbi muayyeneleri yapılmalı ve sağlık durumları izlenmelidir.

Ağrının birincil önemi vücudu yaralanmalardan korumaktır. Ancak, hayatta kalmak için acıyı algılamamanın daha önemli olduğu bazı durumlar da söz konusudur. Ağrının kendiliğinden bastırılması veya nosisepsiyonun zayıflamasına, endojen antinosiseptif (analjezik) sistem aracılık eder. Anatomik oluşumu, orta beyindeki periakueduktal gri maddeden, beyin sapının noradrenerjik ve serotonerjik çekirdeklerinden, nosiseptörlerden "ağrı" bilgisi alan spinal nöronlara kadar uzanır. Bu sistemin faaliyeti, duygusal ve bilişsel devrelerin kontrolü altındadır. Ağrı, olumlu duyguların uyarılmasıyla hafifletilebilirken, olumsuz duygular hissedilen acıyı artırmaktadır. İlginç şekilde, bir ağrı başka bir acıyı bastırabilme özelliğine de sahiptir. Analjezi; stres, fiziksel egzersiz, orosensöryel uyarılma (tatlı gıda tüketimi), müzik dinleme ve plasebo sonrası, yani ağrıdan kurtulma beklendiğinde duyusal uyarımla indüklenebilir. Ağrının; duyusal, duyuşsal ve bilişsel bileşenleri olduğundan, bu tüm sistemlerin aktivasyonunun belirli şekillerde ağrının bastırılmasına katkıda bulunabileceği ortaya konmuştur.

Data breaches are a major threat to organizations from both financial and customer relations perspectives. We developed a nomological network linking post-breach compensation strategies to key outcomes, namely continued shopping intentions, positive word-of-mouth, and online complaining, with the effects being mediated by customers’ justice perceptions. We conducted a longitudinal field study investigating Target’s data breach in 2013 that affected more than 110 million customers. We examined customers’ expectations toward compensation immediately after the breach was confirmed (survey 1) and their experiences after reparations were made (survey 2). Evidence from polynomial regression and response surface analyses of data collected from 388 affected customers showed that customers’ justice perceptions were influenced by the actual compensation provided as well as the type and extent of compensation an organization could and should have provided (i.e., customers’ compensation expectations). Interestingly, both positive and negative expectation disconfirmation led to less favorable justice perceptions compared to when expectations were met. Justice perceptions were, in turn, associated with key outcomes. We discuss implications for research on data security, information systems, and justice theory.

Published: May 2022

Privacy needs on today’s internet differ from the information privacy needs in traditional e-commerce settings due to their focus on interactions among online peers rather than merely transactions with an online vendor. Peer-oriented online interactions have critical implications for an individual’s virtual presence and self-cognition. Yet existing conceptualizations of internet privacy concerns have solely focused on the control of personal information release and on online interactions with online vendors. Drawing on the theory of personal boundaries, this study revisits the theoretical foundation of online privacy and proposes a multidimensional peer-related privacy concern construct, that focuses on privacy violations from online peers. We term this new construct “Peer Privacy Concern” (PrPC) and define it as the general feeling of being unable to maintain functional personal boundaries in online activities as a result of the behavior of online peers. This construct consists of four dimensions comprised of a reconceptualization of information privacy concerns to also reflect privacy concerns with respect to peers’ handling of self-shared information and with respect to peer-shared information about one’s self, and three new dimensions that tap into the arising privacy needs from virtual interactions (i.e., virtual territory privacy concern and communication privacy concern) as well as from the need to maintain psychological independence (i.e., psychological privacy concern). These new dimensions, which are rooted in the theory of personal boundaries, are prominent privacy needs in online social interactions with peers. However, they are absent from previous privacy concern conceptualizations. Scales for measuring this new construct are developed and empirically validated.
Crowdfunding for Microfinance Institutions: The New Hope?

Published: May 2022

Online crowdfunding holds the promise of empowering entrepreneurs and small businesses as an innovative alternative financing channel. However, doubts have been expressed as to whether online crowdfunding can deliver its promise because of the lack of empirical evidence regarding its effects. In this study, we investigate the effects that prosocial crowdfunding has on traditional microfinance institutions (MFIs). Combining multiple data sources, including data from Kiva.org and the Microfinance Information Exchange Market (MIX Market), we examine how access to crowdfunding influences MFIs’ sustainability and interest rates. We find that after joining Kiva, MFIs’ sustainability improves and interest rates decrease. Further investigation suggests that the changes mainly result from efficiency improvement, rather than increased supply of low-cost funds. We propose that joining an online crowdfunding platform induces greater transparency and crowd monitoring, which motivates and empowers MFIs to improve operations and become more efficient.

Authors: Berger Urs , Kölliker Stephan , Oehme Michael
Published: May 2022

High-performance liquid chromatography combined with ion-trap mass spectrometry allows now to record mass spectra in the full-scan mode with sample quantities around 1 ng or less. In addition, the on-line generation of multiple daughter-ion spectra has become possible. This has revolutionised organic trace analysis. Small polar and/or thermolabile molecules such as biotoxins can be detected in the trace range and their structure unequivocally identified. In addition, a complete or partial structure elucidation of related structures is possible. This overview demonstrates the possibilities and limitations of HPLC-Msn with ion traps. Examples shown are the structure elucidation of aconitum alkaloids, trichothecenes and photochemically formed carbonyl compounds. This survey discusses also problems caused by system contamination and adsorption effects. Finally, the achievable performance of quantification in the trace range is briefly presented.

Published: May 2022

На острове Вайгач имеется обширная система водотоков, которые относятся к категории малых рек. В формах устьев рек доминируют эстуарии лагунного типа. Дано описание зон смешения речных и морских вод в рамках модели маргинального фильтра. Сделано предположение о постепенном заиливании и заболачивании устьевых лагун на фоне усиления таяния криолитозоны острова. В донных отложениях устьевых зон может происходить накопление таких металлов, как алюминий и железо, а в устьях рек, на водосборах которых велась разработка полиметаллических руд, также цинка, свинца и меди.

Vaygach Island has an extensive system of watercourses that are classified as small rivers. Estuaries of the lagoon type dominate in the forms of river mouths. The description of the mixing zones of river and sea waters is given within the framework of the marginal filter model. An assumption was made about the gradual silting and swamping of the estuarine lagoons against the background of increasing thawing of the permafrost zone of the island. In the bottom sediments of the estuarine zones, the accumulation of metals such as aluminum and iron can occur, and in the estuaries of rivers, on whose catchments the development of polymetallic ores was carried out, also zinc, lead and copper.

Published: May 2022

В статье дана характеристика орнитофауны на территории семи парков г. Москвы, расположенных в пределах МКАД, во внегнездовой период (сентябрь-март) 2017-2021 гг. Для малых исследуемых парков во внегнездовой период характерны непостоянные сообщества птиц, для крупных – стабильные сообщества. В данный период отмечено 76 видов птиц, из них 23 охраняемых. Во всех исследуемых парках отмечались не только урбофильные, но и урбофобные виды. Для таких видов не исключена дальнейшая урбанизация, в том числе и возвратная, если учесть, что из года в год городские озеленённые зоны с разнообразными ландшафтами, смягчёнными погодными условиями и обильной кормовой базой, привлекают всё больше видов, некоторые из которых могут впоследствии загнездиться в городе.

This article presents the characteristics of non-breeding bird population in seven Moscow parks from September 2017 to March 2021. Bird complexes in small parks are quite unstable during the non-breeding season, while in large parks they are rather constant. 76 bird species were recorded in seven parks. These species include both synanthropic and non-synanthropic species. Some species of the latter category may become urbanized later, assuming that urban green areas attract more bird species every year because of diverse landscapes, mild weather conditions and abundant food supply, and some of these species may breed in such areas in the future.

It is advisable to identify the elements of the NEF taking into account the preserved landscape structure, which is one of the important tasks in studying the NEF.
Cell Wall Disintegration Induces Dent Formation on Wood Nanocellulose Surfaces: the Origin of Diverse Defects in Sustainable Fibrillar Materials
Authors: Ito Tomoki , Daicho Kazuho , Fujisawa Shuji , Saito Tsuguyuki , Kobayashi Kayoko
Published: May 2022

Wood-derived, sustainable cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) with high strength, thermal stability, and other diverse functionalities are produced via wet disintegration of cell wall cellulose with a robust hierarchical structure. Herein, we report that atomic-scale dents are formed at various positions on the CNF surfaces in the process of cell wall disintegration. These dents were identified as the structural origin of CNF defects such as kinks and splits, eventually resulting in the fragmentation of CNFs. The dents were detected by comparing the experimentally measured and computer-simulated heights of CNFs using atomic force microscopy. Through analyses of the amount, distribution, and shape of the dents, we found that the dent parts constituted 30–40% of the total length of the CNFs. The length and depth of the dent structures depended on their positions on the CNF surfaces. We discuss the mechanism of dent formation in the process of cell wall disintegration.
A Kinetic Model for Predicting Trace Gas Uptake and Reaction
Authors: Wilson Kevin , Prophet Alexander , Willis Megan
Published: May 2022

A model is developed to describe trace gas uptake and reaction with applications to aerosols and microdroplets. Gas uptake by the liquid is formulated as a coupled equilibria that links gas, surface and bulk regions of the droplet or solution. Previously, this framework was used in explicit stochastic reaction-diffusion simulations to predict the reactive uptake kinetics of ozone with droplets containing aqueous aconitic acid, maleic acid and sodium nitrite. Using prior data and simulation results, a new equation for the uptake coefficient is derived, which accounts for both surface and bulk reactions. Lambert W functions are used to obtain closed form solutions to the integrated rate laws for the multiphase kinetics; similar to previous expressions that describe Michaelis–Menten enzyme kinetics. Together these equations couple interface and bulk processes over a wide range of conditions and don’t require many of the limiting assumptions needed to apply resistor model formulations to explain trace gas uptake and reaction.

Published: May 2022

The search for crystals of sp1 bonded carbon chains or carbynes has been a goal of many research groups. In this paper we report a new method based on chemical synthesis that can produce a large amount of polycrystalline carbon chains. We use a solution of 1-dodecanethiol and gold salts that are subjected to microwave radiation. The resulting material is a white powder. We used TEM, X Ray Diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy to characterize the material. We found a very prominent phase a hexagonal lattice with parameters a=5.45 Å and c=35.4 Å and P6 space group. We found that the carbon chains are stabilized by gold sulphide nanoparticles which attach to the chains. Therefore, our material is a pseudo carbyne and not a pure carbon allotrope since it contains Au and Sulphur. Nevertheless, this work opens the door for research on the properties of sp bonded carbon materials.

Fighting Back: Youth and Climate Change Resistance in Aotearoa/New Zealand
Authors:   , Myers Toni
Published: May 2022

Young people’s climate change protests in Aotearoa have been reported in the media but little is known about their personal experiences of resistance or the climate justice they seek. This study of a cohort of rangatahi engaged in a range of climate change resistance from environmental restoration to standing for political office addresses that gap in the research. Young climate activists are often portrayed as angry and bitter at older generations for failing to address climate change and bequeathing them a dangerous and uncertain future. This research finds however that these young people do not blame older generations for the climate crisis and have no time for intergenerational squabbles. They lay the blame squarely at the feet of the fossil fuel industry and its enablers and believe that the strength needed to fight the climate crisis comes from all generations collaborating to challenge the hegemony of the ‘Big Oil’ and big business dominated power structure that enables the despoiling of the environment and the exploitation of peoples. They seek structural reform to deliver equitable outcomes for all; climate justice for these rangatahi is social justice. This research argues that their voices should be prioritised in the policy debates and decisions that will determine the future they will have to endure but many of the policy makers will not.
Continental European Assisted Immigrants in 1870s New Zealand
Authors:   , Dunick Mark
Published: May 2022

Approximately 7000 Scandinavians, Germans, Poles and other continental European settlers arrived in New Zealand from 1871 to 1876 as part of the assisted immigration scheme promoted by politician Julius Vogel. The continental Europeans included many family groups and became a small but significant minority among the Pākehā population of nineteenth century New Zealand. Many of these European settlers clustered in rural communities around the country, including Norwegian and Danish communities in Hawkes Bay and the Wairarapa, along with German and Polish communities in Canterbury, Otago and Taranaki. Some of these communities are well known and have been studied in isolation, and others have been neglected by historians. This project includes a quantitative study of the continental European migrations of the 1870s and examines key settler communities that continental Europeans, particularly Scandinavians Germans and Poles, formed in nineteenth century New Zealand. It also details the mechanisms of the Vogel assisted immigration scheme by examining voluminous correspondence, reports and memos collected in the Appendix to the Journals of the House of Representatives.

A relational database of ten tables, created for this project, contains information from a range of sources, including passenger records in New Zealand and Europe, New Zealand naturalisation registers and probates. Newspaper information and family histories provided additional biographical details for continental European immigrants. Passenger lists in New Zealand and Hamburg were used to analyse the demographics of the migrants and their diverse European origins. A number of European settler communities were selected, and New Zealand naturalisation records were used to identify and profile European born settlers and their lives in New Zealand. These individuals were matched with passenger records and probate records to build a profile of European settlers in each of these communities.

This study revealed that the European assisted immigrants of the 1870s left from specific regions in their countries of origin, and in many cases specific villages, and local clusters of migration were identified. The examination of a number of the rural communities formed by European migrants in New Zealand revealed that most became small farmers and achieved a modest level of wealth. A close study of the migrants in these clusters revealed many clusters were more diverse than previously thought, with a range of European ethnicities living alongside each other. Despite initial hurdles these European migrants found it easy to integrate into the dominant Pākehā culture of nineteenth century New Zealand, and by the early twentieth century most of the distinctly European communities had dispersed or blended into the wider population
Reading Aloud as a Strategy to Uplift A1 Students to Speak in English
Authors: Flores Herrera María Guadalupe
Published: May 2022

The current Covid-19 contingency has redefined the teaching and learning process for everyone involved. Nonetheless, one of the aspects that has been severely affected is learners’ motivation and resilience. As a result, teachers worldwide have had to look for alternatives and adapt their teaching strategies, so that this new, digital modality of work, became engaging and useful to meet learners’ learning needs. The present paper describes the experience of how the implementation of theme-based sessions and reading aloud in the virtual classroom had a positive impact on learners’ motivation and interest in participating in online sessions. Through the implementation of action research methodology, it was possible to gather learners’ written records of opinions concerning the significance of the four themed sessions which were held. This record of responses highlighted the language learning areas on which a major impact was observed, through the implemented strategy. Results showed that (according to learners’ perceptions) [learners] confidence to speak in English increased; that their anxiety to speak in English diminished; and that overall learning in areas such as vocabulary and pronunciation improved. Although this is a small-scale project, it could usefully be replicated and adapted to different contexts, from which results would be well worth sharing.

CROSSLINGUISTIC INFLUENCE OF AN L3 ON AN L2 IN THE PRODUCTIVE LANGUAGE SKILLS
Authors: Antunez Aguilar Abril Arlet
Published: May 2022

Multilingual speakers usually pass through a process of mixing the languages they are learning. For this reason, the purpose of this research was to detect the role of an L3 in the output of an L2. In order to find an answer, students who have English as L2 and were studying a third language (German and Korean) were submitted to three different speaking and writing exercises to identify crosslinguistic syntactic and phonological influences of their L3s due to typological closeness. The results were obtained by making use of an observation sheet and checklists; the data is presented on graphs and descriptive paragraphs. At the end of the research, it was shown that close languages (typologically speaking) create more conflicts in pronunciation for multilingual speakers than distant languages. The impact of this research lay in detecting how multilingual students perform a switching process in different languages and making them conscious of this phenomenon
Identifikasi Kedalaman Pirit dan Kaitannya Terhadap Kesehatan dan Produktivitas Tanaman Kelapa Sawit (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) ( Studi Kasus di Perkebunan PT Sawit Sumbermas Sarana Tbk )
Authors: Primayuda Aris
Published: May 2022

Lapisan pirit (FeS2) merupakan penciri khusus dari tanah sulfat masam. Dalam kondisi teroksidasi, pirit menghasilkan asam sulfat yang dapat menyebabkan tanah menjadi masam sampai sangat masam (pH 2-3). Hal tersebut tentunya menjadi masalah dalam perkembangan tanaman, termasuk kelapa sawit. Oleh karena itu, pengelolaan tanah asam sulfat harus memperhatikan kedalaman lapisan pirit. Studi tentang identifikasi pirit dan penggunaan penginderaan jauh dalam memantau kesehatan tanaman sangat diperlukan untuk mengoptimalkan produksi kelapa sawit di tanah sulfat masam.Penelitian dilakukan dengan metode studi kasus mulai dari survei detil dan pemetaan kedalaman pirit, analisis kesehatan tanaman, dan analisis produksi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa lapisan pirit di lokasi penelitian berada pada kedalaman 30 cm sampai lebih dari 120 cm dari permukaan tanah. Berdasarkan klasifikasi kedalaman pirit, lokasi penelitian didominasi oleh lahan dengan kedalaman pirit sedang (60-120 cm) seluas 1.701,33 ha. Sebagian areal lainnya memiliki kedalaman pirit dangkal (<60 cm) seluas 484,85 ha, dan pirit dalam (>120 cm) seluas 163,75 ha. Terdapat kecenderungan hubungan linier positif antara kedalaman pirit, nilai NDVI ((normalized difference vegetation index) atau kesehatan tanaman, dan produktivitas tanaman. Nilai NDVI dan produktivitas tanaman cenderung lebih baik dengan semakin meningkatnya kedalaman pirit. Hal ini terlihat dari nilai NDVI yang lebih tinggi seiring dengan semakin dalam tingkat kedalaman pirit. Produktivitas tanaman pada lahan dengan kedalaman pirit dalam, berbeda nyata dengan pirit sedang ataupun dangkal. Semakin dangkal kedalaman pirit, produksi kelapa sawit semakin menurun. Penurunan produksi pada kedalaman pirit sedang dan dangkal berturut-turut adalah 19% dan 39%. Upaya pengelolaan lahan sebaiknya disesuaikan dengan kedalaman dan karakteristik pirit.
A Systemised Approach to Smart Pump Integration with an Electronic Medical Record System – An Australian Experience
Authors: Dixon Madonna , Rattle Amelia , Yeoh Yen Nie , Hamid Ubai , Ngo Julie , Khalil Viviane
Published: May 2022

ABSTRACT

Background:

Smart pump integration with Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems offers an opportunity to introduce a closed-loop medication management system in hospital settings. Closed-loop medication management systems minimise human errors, improve nursing workflow and efficiency, and optimise patient safety. In this descriptive observational study, we will outline some of the key steps required to successfully integrate a smart pump dataset with EMR computerised provider/physician order entry (CPOE) systems.

Methodology:

The triple C model of consultation, collaboration and consolidation was used for the development and implementation of a smart infusion pump and EMR integration at a 160-bed specialist Australian hospital. This systemised approach allowed a methodical implementation process and ensured sustainability of the intervention. Key stakeholders were identified and engaged to establish a working group to align medication orders in the EMR and the smart pump library to ensure readiness of pump-EMR integration phase. Validation testing was conducted for each EMR infusion order to check successful auto-programming to a corresponding medication on the smart pump. The steps discussed are applicable to all hospital settings with EMR systems and smart pumps.

Results:

The smart pump dataset contained a total of 217 unique medications and fluids that were tested for interoperability. A total of 87% (188/217) passed full record testing. The remaining 13 % (29/217) were excluded from interoperability. The 13% of medication and fluids that were excluded was due to the medication being prescribed on paper (i.e. medicines with desensitisation regimen), the medication unable to be prescribed as a medicine in the EMR (i.e. blood products), the smart pump limitations to build safety limits around only one medicine (i.e. multi-additive infusions) or excluded due to specialist hospital formulary.

Conclusion:

This study using a systemised approach, that described and identified key stages and phases required for integration of smart pump infusions with an EMR system, to create a closed-loop medication management system in an Australian hospital setting.

Published: May 2022

The purpose of the study is to design a training programme for master’s students of the engineering specialisation pursuing a degree in bioengineering, based on the principles of transprofessionalism and social partnership. The paper presents the content, methodological foundations and educational technologies that make it possible to form specialisation competencies in the field of nuclear medicine in future graduates in a specially organised practice-oriented educational environment of a university by integrating production into the educational process. Scientific novelty lies in developing a concept and constructing a model for an educational programme specialisation in the subject area of nuclear medicine within the master’s programme in “Biotechnical Systems and Technologies”. As a result, it has been shown that the developed educational programme specialisation “Nuclear Medicine Technology” as a system is determined by means of mastering several training modules interconnected on the basis of a transdisciplinary approach, which contributes to the development of students’ innovation skills. The successful trial of the programme, which has been taking place in the real educational process for five years since 2017, has led to the creation of a scientific and educational cluster in the structure of a federal university, where a key role in training is assigned to students’ interdisciplinary projects that are carried out at the graduate department together with the Cyclotron Center for Nuclear Medicine of the Ural Federal University.

The purpose of the research is to determine the level of development of motor abilities and their particularities in older preschoolers with general speech underdevelopment (GSU) based on the analysis and summarisation of the results of an experimental study. The paper presents the scientific, theoretical and practical foundations for improving the study and development of motor abilities in older preschoolers with general speech underdevelopment, as well as the organisation, content, indicators, results of evaluation of motor coordination abilities, speed strength abilities, strength abilities, flexibility, endurance in older preschoolers with general speech underdevelopment. Scientific novelty of the research lies in substantiating the need for motor abilities development as a condition for overcoming speech disorders, forming prerequisites for literacy acquisition and developing the cognitive sphere of preschool children with general speech underdevelopment. As a result, the researchers have obtained data on the delay in motor abilities development of preschoolers with GSU in comparison with their neurotypical peers; have identified an insufficient level of development of their motor coordination abilities and endurance, with no significant difference found in the performance of tasks taking into account gender differences.
Sentiment Analysis of International Relations with Artificial Intelligence
Authors: Shukla Dadhichi , Unger Stephan
Published: May 2022

Geopolitical strategy is characterized by a dynamic and complex structure of entity relationships, geo-spatial data and human decisions. We employ machine and deep learning techniques to retrieve the sentiment between countries through scraping and analyzing news articles. The change in the sentiment score between countries allows to analyze historic developments of international relations as well as to evaluate the primary and secondary network effects of potential events and policy decisions on the global relationship structure. We find that the key for the most accurate real mapping of the sentiment score between countries is the maximization of the quantity of news while simultaneous minimization of the noise added by the news. Moreover, we show the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve and forecast international relations. Keywords: Natural language processing, international relations, sentiment analysis, geo-political forecasting.
