The importance of building sentiment analysis tools for Arabic social media has been recognized during the past couple of years, especially with the rapid increase in the number of Arabic social media users. One of the main difficulties in tackling this problem is that text within social media is mostly colloquial, with many dialects being used within social media platforms. In this paper, we

Recently, ransomware attacks are on the rise hitting critical infrastructures and organizations globally. Ransomware uses advanced encryption techniques to encrypt important files on the targeted computer, then it requests payment to decrypt the encrypted files again. Therefore, the detection and prevention of ransomware attacks represent major challenges for security researchers. This research

Emotion detection in Arabic text is an emerging research area, but the efforts in this new field have been hindered by the very limited availability of Arabic datasets annotated with emotions. In this paper, we review work that has been carried out in the area of emotion analysis in Arabic text. We then present an Arabic tweet dataset that we have built to serve this task. The efforts and

In this paper, we investigate the problem of recognizing entities which are targeted by text sentiment in Arabic tweets. To do so, we train a bidirectional LSTM deep neural network with conditional random fields as a classification layer on top of the network to discover the features of this specific set of entities and extract them from Arabic tweets. We’ve evaluated the network performance

Understanding both of job-seekers and employers behavior in addition to analyzing the text of job-seekers and job profiles are two important missions for the e-recruitment industry. They are important tasks for matching job-seekers with jobs to find the top relevant suggestions for each job-seeker. Recommender systems, information retrieval and text mining are originally targeted to assist users

Background/Aim: Using machine learning approaches as non-invasive methods have been used recently as an alternative method in staging chronic liver diseases for avoiding the drawbacks of biopsy. This study aims to evaluate different machine learning techniques in prediction of advanced fibrosis by combining the serum bio-markers and clinical information to develop the classification models

Research addressing Sentiment Analysis has witnessed great attention over the last decade especially after the huge increase in social media networks usage. Social networks like Facebook and Twitter generate an incredible amount of data on a daily basis, containing posts that discuss all kinds of different topics ranging from sports and products to politics and current events. Since data generated

For the past decade, Internet of Things (IoT) had an important role in our lives. It connects a large number of embedded devices. These devices fulfill very difficult and complicated tasks, which facilitate our work. Till now the security of IoT faces many challenges such as privacy, authentication, confidentiality, trust, middleware security, mobile security and policy enforcement. In order to

OBJECTIVES Minimally invasive aortic valve replacement has proven its value over the last decade by its significant advancement and reduction in mortality, morbidity and admission time. However, minimally invasive aortic valve replacement is associated with some on-site difficulties such as limited aortic annulus exposure. Currently, computed tomography scans are used to evaluate the anatomical

Microbial nitrogen transformation processes such as denitrification represent major sources of the potent greenhouse gas nitrous oxide (N2O). Soil biochar amendment has been shown to significantly decrease N2O emissions in various soils. However, the effect of biochar on the structure and function of microbial communities that actively perform nitrogen redox transformations has not been studied in
