Bayesian analysis of complex mutations in HBV, HCV, and HIV studies

Description: This article provides a review of the Bayesian-inference-based methods applied to Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis C Virus (HCV), and Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) studies with a focus on the detection of the viral mutations and various problems which are correlated to these mutations. The authors also provide a summary of the Bayesian methods' applications toward these viruses' studies, where several important and useful results have been discovered.

Incorporating Emoji Descriptions Improves Tweet Classification

Description: Article presenting a simple strategy to process emojis in Tweets: replace them with their natural language description and use pretrained word embeddings as normally done with standard words. Results show that this strategy is more effective than using pretrained emoji embeddings for tweet classification.

BAM: A Block-Based Bayesian Method for Detecting Genome-Wide Associations with Multiple Diseases

Description: Article proposes a novel Bayesian method, named BAM, for simultaneously partitioning Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) into Linkage Disequilibrium(LD)-blocks and detecting genome-wide multi-locus epistatic interactions that are associated with multiple diseases. Experimental results on the simulated datasets demonstrate that BAM is powerful and efficient.

Detecting Negation Cues and Scopes in Spanish

Description: Article addresses the processing of negation in Spanish by presenting a machine learning system that processes negation in Spanish and providing a qualitative error analysis aimed at understanding the limitations of the system and showing which negation cues and scopes are straightforward to predict automatically, and which ones are challenging.

Natlog: a Lightweight Logic Programming Language with a Neuro-symbolic Touch

Description: Article that introduces Natlog, a lightweight Logic Programming language, sharing Prolog's unification-driven execution model, but with a simplified syntax and semantics. The authors' proof-of-concept Natlog implementation is tightly embedded in the Python-based deep-learning ecosystem with focus on content-driven indexing of ground term datasets. As an overriding of the authors symbolic indexing algorithm, the same function can be delegated to a neural network, serving ground facts to Natlog's… more
