چکیده

There has been an explosion of research on analyzing social media to map human behavior relevant to public health, such as drinking or drug use. However, it is important not only to detect the local regions where these activities occur, but also to analyze the degree of participation in them by local residents. We develop powerful new methods for fine-grained localization of activities and home locations using Twitter data. We apply these methods to discover and compare alcohol use patterns in a large city, New York City, and a more suburban and rural area, Monroe County.

Detecting communities of workforces for the multi-skill resource-constrained project scheduling problem: A dandelion solution approach

This paper proposes a new mixed-integer model for the multi-skill resource-constrained project scheduling problem (MSRCPSP). The interactions between workers are represented as undirected networks. Therefore, for each required skill, an undirected network is formed which shows the relations of human resources. In this paper, community detection in networks is used to find the most compatible wo...
