Existing approaches to automated opinion classification rely either on sentiment lexicons or supervised machine learning. Deep neural networks perform this classification task particularly well by utilizing dense document representation in terms of word embeddings. However, this representation model does not consider the sentiment polarity or sentiment intensity of the words. To overcome this problem, we propose a novel model of deep neural network with word-sentiment associations. This model produces richer document representation that incorporates both word context and word sentiment. Specifically, our model utilizes pre-trained word embeddings and lexicon-based sentiment indicators to provide inputs to a deep feed-forward neural network. To verify the effectiveness of the proposed model, a benchmark dataset of Amazon reviews is used.

EMNLP 2021 is planned to be a hybrid event in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, with both on-site and fully virtual participation possible. The experience for on-site participants would closely approximate a normal pre-COVID *ACL conference, with 5-6 thematically organized parallel sessions and live Q/A and interactive discussion immediately after the talks. Presentations by virtual participants will be equitably interleaved with those of on-site participants, projected on the auditorium screens as if on-site, and also followed immediately by live Q/A and interactive discussion at a time during reasonable waking hours for the virtual presenter. For all participants, on-site and virtual, who are unable to attend a session due to either time-zone issues or because they are participating in another session live, talk recordings and slides will be available online at a minimum after the live presentation (and in many cases before as well), and questions may be submitted in advance on session-specific discussion boards and answered live in session with the usual visual aids if desired.

Due to current Covid-19 situation the conference will be held virtually. Underline will host a repository of video talks and preserve them for the future. Videos will be released on Underline one day after the conference.

Transformation is not only today's trend but also a reality.
Ports could not be excluded from that change. A transformation pro-
cess has been initiated in order to change their operational structure,
and the services they oer. Articial Intelligent and Data oriented ser-
vices push the services' landscape beyond the traditional ones that are
currently used. The scope of this paper is to analyze and scrutinize the
opportunities that are risen for Telecommunications / Information and
Communication Technology (ICT) providers at ports. These opportuni-
ties are the stepping stone towards the transformation of ports for the
future. This work in progress is under the DataPorts project that is
funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 Research and Innovation
Programme under grant agreement No. 871493.

Towards a smart port: the role of the telecom industry

Recent developments of data monitoring and analytics technologies in the context of wireless networks will boost the capacity to extract knowledge about the net-work and the users. On the one hand, the obtained knowledge can be useful for running more efficient network management tasks related to network reconfigura-tion and optimization. On the other hand, the extraction of knowledge related to user needs, user mobility patterns and user habits and interests can also be useful to provide a more personalized service to the clients. Focusing on user mobility, this paper presents a methodology that predicts the future Access Point (AP) that the user will be connected to in a Wi-Fi Network. The prediction is based on the historical data related to the previous APs which the user connected to. Different approaches are proposed, according to the data that is used for prediction, in or-der to capture weekly, daily and hourly user activity-based behaviours. Two pre-diction algorithms are compared, based on Neural Networks (NN) and Random Forest (RF). The methodology has been evaluated in a large Wi-Fi network de-ployed in a University Campus.

In recent years, many models for predicting movie ratings have been pro-posed, focusing on utilizing movie reviews combined with sentiment lexicons. In this study, we offer a different approach based on the combination of the emotionally analyzed movie script and their respective reviews. The logic behind this model is that if the emotional experience described by the reviewer match or clash with the emotions expressed in the movie script, then this correlation will be reflected in the particular rating of the movie. We collected a dataset consisting of 747 movie scripts and 78k reviews and recreated many conventional approaches for movie rating pre-diction, including Vector Semantics and Sentiment Analysis techniques ran with a variety of Machine Learning algorithms, in order to more accurately evaluate the performance of our model and validity of our hypothesis. Our results indicate that a possible combination of sentiment lexicons can achieve impressive performances, while other combinations produce a variety of outcomes.

Sentiment Analysis on Movie Scripts and Reviews

Sentiment analysis is a vigorous research area, with many application domains. In this work, aspect-based sentiment prediction is examined as a component of a larger architecture that crawls, indexes and stores documents from a wide variety of online sources, including the most popular social networks. The textual part of the collected information is processed by a hybrid bi-directional long short-term memory architecture, coupled with convolutional layers along with an attention mechanism. The extracted textual features are then combined with other characteristics, such as the number of repetitions, the type and frequency of emoji ideograms in a fully-connected, feed-forward artificial neural network that performs the final prediction task. The obtained results, especially for the negative sentiment class, which is of particular importance in certain cases, are encouraging, underlying the robustness of the proposed approach.

Therefore, in this paper, we propose a dynamic optimization scheme for the edge computing system with multiple mobile devices (MDs), where the radio and computational resources, and ofﬂoading decisions, can be dynamically coordinated and allocated with the variation of radio resources and computation demands. Speciﬁcally, with the objective to minimize the system cost related to latency, energy consumption and weights of MDs, we propose a joint computation ofﬂoading and radio resource allocation algorithm based on Lyapunov optimization.

This paper addresses the subject of Movie Recommendation Systems, focusing on two of the most well-known filtering techniques, Collaborative Filtering and Content-based Filtering. The first approach proposes a supervised probabilistic Bayesian model that forms recommendations based on the previous evaluations of other movies the user has watched. The second approach composes an unsupervised learning technique that forms clusters of users, using the K-Means algorithm, based on their preference of different movie genres, as it is expressed through their ratings. Both of the above approaches are compared to each other as well as to a basic method known as Weighted Sum, which makes predictions based on the cosine similarity and the euclidean distance between users and movies. In addition, Content-based Filtering is implemented through K-Means clustering techniques that focus on identifying the resemblance between movie plots. The first approach clusters movies according to the Tf/Idf weighting scheme, applying weights to the terms of movie plots. The latter identifies the likeness between movie plots, utilizing the BM25 algorithm. The efficiency of the above methods is calculated through the Accuracy metric.

Improving Movie Recommendation Systems Filtering by Exploiting User-based Reviews and Movie Synopses

The purpose of this paper is the expansion of the set-based model, namely an information retrieval model, with the use of graphs. The indexing process implements a graphical representation, while the querying and document representation are based on the classical set-based model. The root of the set-based model corresponds to the use of term sets to complete the querying process based on the terms of the query. However, in the weighting process, this paper presents a wholly different approach elaborating on algorithms that may clearly benefit the process based on the k-core decomposition of each single graph. The main focus will finally be the estimation and presentation of the most important nodes belonging to each graph. These intend to be regarded as keywords presenting the evaluation of their major influence.

With the advent of social media, there is a data abundance so that analytics can be reliably designed for ultimately providing valuable information towards a given product or service. In this paper, we examine the problem of classifying hotel critiques using views expressed in users' reviews. There is a massive development of opinions and reviews on the web, which invariably include assessments of products and services, and beliefs about events and persons. In this study, we aim to face the problem of the forever increasing amount of opinionated data that is published in a variety of data sources. The intuition is the extraction of meaningful services despite the lack of sufficient existing architectures. Another important aspect that needs to be taken into consideration when dealing with brand monitoring, relates to the rapid heterogeneous data processing, which is vital to be implemented in real-time in order for the business to react in a more immediate way.

A Sentiment-based Hotel Review Summarization using Machine Learning Techniques

The data science and AI community have gathered around the world to support tackling the climate change problem in different domains. This research aims to work on air quality through emissions and pollutant concentration data along with vegetation information. Authorities, especially in urban cities like London, have been very vigilant in monitoring these different aspects of air quality and reliable sources of big data is available in this domain. This study aims to mine and collate this information spread all over the place in different formats into a usable knowledge base on which further data analysis and powerful Machine Learning approaches can be built to extract strong evidence useful in building better policies around climate change.
