Automatic Classification of Stigmatizing Articles of Mental Illness: The Case of Portuguese Online Newspapers
Abstract The stigma related to mental health continues to be present in online newspapers, where mental diseases are often used metaphorically to refer to entities or situations outside the clinical of mental health. This project explores the implementation of Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing techniques for the task of automatically classifying stigmatizing articles with references to the mental disorders of schizophrenia and psychosis. This work is implemented in Portuguese online news articles, collected from the Arquivo.pt repository, a public repository of archived Portuguese web pages, and can be adapted to other languages or similar problems. Nine machine and deep learning algorithms were implemented, most of them yielding results with a precision above 90%. In addition, the automatic detection of articles topics was also performed, through topic modeling with the top2vec model, which allowed concluding that the stigmatization of mental health occurs, essentially, in Economics and Politics related news. The results confirm the existence of stigma in Portuguese newspapers (52% of the 978 articles collected) and the effectiveness of the use of Artificial Intelligence models to detect it. Additionally, a set of 978 articles collected and manually classified with the classes [“stigmatizing”, “literal”] is obtained.KeywordsArtificial IntelligenceDeep learningMachine learningNatural Language ProcessingNewspapersText classificationTopic modeling

The World Health Organization (WHO) is revising the ICD-10 classification of mental and behavioural disorders, under the leadership of the Department of Mental Health and Substance Abuse and within the framework of the overall revision framework as directed by the World Health Assembly. This article describes WHO's perspective and priorities for mental and behavioural disorders classification in ICD-11, based on the recommendations of the International Advisory Group for the Revision of ICD-10 Mental and Behavioural Disorders. The WHO considers that the classification should be developed in consultation with stakeholders, which include WHO member countries, multidisciplinary health professionals, and users of mental health services and their families. Attention to the cultural framework must be a key element in defining future classification concepts. Uses of the ICD that must be considered include clinical applications, research, teaching and training, health statistics, and public health. The Advisory Group has determined that the current revision represents a particular opportunity to improve the classification's clinical utility, particularly in global primary care settings where there is the greatest opportunity to identify people who need mental health treatment. Based on WHO's mission and constitution, the usefulness of the classification in helping WHO member countries, particularly low- and middle-income countries, to reduce the disease burden associated with mental disorders is among the highest priorities for the revision. This article describes the foundation provided by the recommendations of the Advisory Group for the current phase of work.

Insolvency prediction is one of the crucial abilities in corporate finance and financial management. It is critical in accounts receivable management, capital budgeting decisions, financial analysis, capital structure management, going concern assessment and co-operation with other companies. The purpose of this paper is to compare the efficiency of selected deep learning and machine learning algorithms trained on a representative sample of Polish companies for the period 2008–2017. In particular, the paper tested the following popular machine learning algorithms: discriminant analysis (DA), logit (L), support vector machines (SVM), random forest (RF), gradient boosting decision trees (GB), neural network with one hidden layer (NN), convolutional neural network (CNN), and naïve Bayes (NB). The research hypotheses evaluated in the paper state that if one has access to a large sample of companies, the most accurate algorithm (first choice) in bankruptcy prediction will be gradient boosting decision trees (H1), random forest (H2) and neural networks (H3) (deep learning) algorithms. The initial hypotheses were formulated based on the practitioners’ opinions regarding the usefulness of various machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms in bankruptcy prediction. As the results of the research suggest, both deep learning and machine learning algorithms proved to have very comparable efficiency. The new factor introduced in the paper was that the training of the models was carried out on a representative sample of companies (for years 2008–2013) and also the testing phase used a significant number of bankrupt and active companies (validation included a completely different set of companies than those used in the training phase: data were taken from a different time period, 2014–2017, and companies in both sets were also completely different).

Enhancing Sustainability System Forecasts with Modern Artificial Intelligence (AI) Techniques: An Investigation in Beijing, China" is the title of the research that delves into the possibility of using cutting-edge AI methods to improve the accuracy of climate change models. The study's primary goal is to enhance the accuracy of climate predictions by using artificial intelligence techniques such as deep learning networks and machine learning algorithms, as conventional climate models fail to adequately represent complicated, non-linear climate systems. The research delves into the difficulties of predicting weather factors including temperature, precipitation, and air quality in the Beijing area, where pollution and fast urbanisation cause a great deal of climatic fluctuation. More precise risk assessments, enhanced decision-making for adaptation and mitigation plans, and enhanced modelling of future climatic scenarios are all possible outcomes of applying AI technologies to massive amounts of meteorological data. In light of Beijing's specific environmental circumstances, this study showcases the effective use of AI in climate research, showing how AI has the ability to transform predictive modelling and guide better climate policy. Global economic losses of more than $500 billion have been caused by climate change, which is already a significant hazard. It is harming both urban and natural systems. As AI draws on a wealth of online resources to provide timely recommendations grounded on reliable climate change forecasts, it has the potential to alleviate some of these problems. Energy efficiency, carbon sequestration and storage, transportation, grid management, building design, transportation, precision agriculture, industrial processes, reducing deforestation, resilient cities, and recent research and applications of artificial intelligence in climate change mitigation are highlighted in this review.

Digital image processing has witnessed a significant transformation, owing to the adoption of deep learning (DL) algorithms, which have proven to be vastly superior to conventional methods for crop detection. These DL algorithms have recently found successful applications across various domains, translating input data, such as images of afflicted plants, into valuable insights, like the identification of specific crop diseases. This innovation has spurred the development of cutting-edge techniques for early detection and diagnosis of crop diseases, leveraging tools such as convolutional neural networks (CNN), K-nearest neighbour (KNN), support vector machines (SVM), and artificial neural networks (ANN). This paper offers an all-encompassing exploration of the contemporary literature on methods for diagnosing, categorizing, and gauging the severity of crop diseases. The review examines the performance analysis of the latest machine learning (ML) and DL techniques outlined in these studies. It also scrutinizes the methodologies and datasets and outlines the prevalent recommendations and identified gaps within different research investigations. As a conclusion, the review offers insights into potential solutions and outlines the direction for future research in this field. The review underscores that while most studies have concentrated on traditional ML algorithms and CNN, there has been a noticeable dearth of focus on emerging DL algorithms like capsule neural networks and vision transformers. Furthermore, it sheds light on the fact that several datasets employed for training and evaluating DL models have been tailored to suit specific crop types, emphasizing the pressing need for a comprehensive and expansive image dataset encompassing a wider array of crop varieties. Moreover, the survey draws attention to the prevailing trend where the majority of research endeavours have concentrated on individual plant diseases, ML, or DL algorithms. In light of this, it advocates for the development of a unified framework that harnesses an ensemble of ML and DL algorithms to address the complexities of multiple plant diseases effectively.

The cognitive impairment known as dementia affects millions of individuals throughout the globe. The use of machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) algorithms has shown great promise as a means of early identification and treatment of dementia. Dementias such as Alzheimer’s Dementia, frontotemporal dementia, Lewy body dementia, and vascular dementia are all discussed in this article, along with a literature review on using ML algorithms in their diagnosis. Different ML algorithms, such as support vector machines, artificial neural networks, decision trees, and random forests, are compared and contrasted, along with their benefits and drawbacks. As discussed in this article, accurate ML models may be achieved by carefully considering feature selection and data preparation. We also discuss how ML algorithms can predict disease progression and patient responses to therapy. However, overreliance on ML and DL technologies should be avoided without further proof. It’s important to note that these technologies are meant to assist in diagnosis but should not be used as the sole criteria for a final diagnosis. The research implies that ML algorithms may help increase the precision with which dementia is diagnosed, especially in its early stages. The efficacy of ML and DL algorithms in clinical contexts must be verified, and ethical issues around the use of personal data must be addressed, but this requires more study.
