Download or read book Digital Disinformation written by Peter Chew and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-18 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uniquely combines the authors’ personal experiences, deep cultural and professional experience of living and working in Russia and the former USSR, and interest and experience with language and computational analysis, to shed light on a highly contemporary question: what is motivating conflict and unrest in Russia and its surrounding countries? How does Russian government suppression of information manifest in practice today, and how does it fit into the historical cultural pattern for Russia? The authors take a computational look at social and traditional media in the original languages, from Russia, Ukraine, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Poland, and the English-speaking world, to glean insights and separate fact from fiction. This book helps readers interested in Eastern Europe to ‘take the temperature’ of the region today, but it is also of interest to readers in the policy and analysis community, because it offers a template, an analytical ‘how-to’ guide which aims to follow in the footsteps of CIA author Richards Heuer’s ‘Psychology of Intelligence Analysis’, to show how state-of-the-art computational analysis techniques could be applied to similar problems in other topic areas, with the human analyst and computational techniques each working together to create a whole greater than the sum of its parts.
Download or read book Population and Development in the 21st Century Between the Anthropocene and Anthropocentrism written by Parfait M. Eloundou-Enyegue and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2024-07-10 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book captures some of the emergent topics and methods in demography at the turn of this 21st century. Like all social sciences, the concerns and tools of demography must evolve with the times. As new technologies expand data management opportunities, and as a changing world faces new demographic issues, the field of demographic research must expand as well. The chapters in the book rise to this challenge by embracing new questions or new approaches to classic questions about demographic processes and their link to development, including inequality, health, migration, and youth across the world.
Download or read book Dark Web Pattern Recognition and Crime Analysis Using Machine Intelligence written by Rawat, Romil and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2022-05-13 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Data stealing is a major concern on the internet as hackers and criminals have begun using simple tricks to hack social networks and violate privacy. Cyber-attack methods are progressively modern, and obstructing the attack is increasingly troublesome, regardless of whether countermeasures are taken. The Dark Web especially presents challenges to information privacy and security due to anonymous behaviors and the unavailability of data. To better understand and prevent cyberattacks, it is vital to have a forecast of cyberattacks, proper safety measures, and viable use of cyber-intelligence that empowers these activities. Dark Web Pattern Recognition and Crime Analysis Using Machine Intelligence discusses cyberattacks, security, and safety measures to protect data and presents the shortcomings faced by researchers and practitioners due to the unavailability of information about the Dark Web. Attacker techniques in these Dark Web environments are highlighted, along with intrusion detection practices and crawling of hidden content. Covering a range of topics such as malware and fog computing, this reference work is ideal for researchers, academicians, practitioners, industry professionals, computer scientists, scholars, instructors, and students.
Download or read book Handbook of Computational Social Science for Policy written by Eleonora Bertoni and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-01-23 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access handbook describes foundational issues, methodological approaches and examples on how to analyse and model data using Computational Social Science (CSS) for policy support. Up to now, CSS studies have mostly developed on a small, proof-of concept, scale that prevented from unleashing its potential to provide systematic impact to the policy cycle, as well as from improving the understanding of societal problems to the definition, assessment, evaluation, and monitoring of policies. The aim of this handbook is to fill this gap by exploring ways to analyse and model data for policy support, and to advocate the adoption of CSS solutions for policy by raising awareness of existing implementations of CSS in policy-relevant fields. To this end, the book explores applications of computational methods and approaches like big data, machine learning, statistical learning, sentiment analysis, text mining, systems modelling, and network analysis to different problems in the social sciences. The book is structured into three Parts: the first chapters on foundational issues open with an exposition and description of key policymaking areas where CSS can provide insights and information. In detail, the chapters cover public policy, governance, data justice and other ethical issues. Part two consists of chapters on methodological aspects dealing with issues such as the modelling of complexity, natural language processing, validity and lack of data, and innovation in official statistics. Finally, Part three describes the application of computational methods, challenges and opportunities in various social science areas, including economics, sociology, demography, migration, climate change, epidemiology, geography, and disaster management. The target audience of the book spans from the scientific community engaged in CSS research to policymakers interested in evidence-informed policy interventions, but also includes private companies holding data that can be used to study social sciences and are interested in achieving a policy impact.

Download or read book Computational Research in Ethnic and Migration Studies written by Emanuel Deutschmann and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-11-08 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book showcases the potential of computational approaches for research questions at the heart of migration and integration research via a set of original, cutting-edge empirical studies by a diverse, international team of authors. Why do people emigrate? Do weather conditions and climate change affect decisions to migrate? How do migration networks evolve on a global scale? Can we predict refugee movements? How do host communities respond to the influx of refugees? Do right-wing populist parties get stronger where lots of refugees are located? Do terror attacks lead to more hostility towards immigrants? What mechanisms explain neighborhood ethnic segregation? The collection of studies in this book harnesses the power of an emerging interdisciplinary research field known as computational social science to shed new light on such classic questions of migration and integration research. The cutting-edge empirical studies use a wide range of computational approaches, from agent-based modeling and network analysis to machine learning, natural language processing, and advanced spatial methods and cover detailed spatial, textual, and network data from both online and offline sources. The book thus demonstrates the potential of computational approaches for migration and integration research, while also discussing the challenges that arise in this emerging field. This book will be an invaluable resource for researchers, students of sociology, ethnic and migration studies, international politics, and computational social science. It was originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies.
