Multiplex Community Detection in Social Networks Using a Chaos-Based Hybrid Evolutionary Approach by Bagher Zarei, Bahman Arasteh, Mehdi Asadi, Vahid Majidnezhad, Saeid Taghavi Afshord, Asgarali Bouyer

“…In the community structure detection phase, the community structure of the resulting weighted monoplex network is determined using the Improved Genetic Algorithm (IGA). The main aspects that differentiate IGA from other algorithms presented in the literature are as follows: (a) instead of randomly generating the initial population, it is smartly generated using the concept of diffusion. …”

Detection the topics of Facebook posts using text mining with Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) algorithm by Shahlaa Mashhadani

“…Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) and digital forensics intersect through analyzing and classifying textual digital evidence in social media, including Facebook, in which text data is the main focus. This technique is particularly a useful topic modeling technique for uncovering hidden patterns in text data, which can be particularly useful in digital forensics taken from Facebook, including text analysis and evidence discovery, where LDA is used to extract large amounts of unstructured text data from meaningful topics, such as emails, documents, or chat logs. …”

Rotordynamic Fluid Force Moments on an Open-type Centrifugal Compressor Impeller in Precessing Motion by Yoshiki Yoshida, Yoshinobu Tsujimoto, Daizo Yokoyama, Hideo Ohashi, Fumitaka Kano

“…In this paper, following results are obtained: (1) The fluid force moment becomes destabilizing in the region of negative precessing speed ratio (-0.3<Ω/ω<0), at the design flow rate; (2) At reduced flow rate, the destabilizing fluid force moments occurred at small positive precessing speed ratio (0.2<Ω/ω<0.4); (3) From the comparison of direct measured fluid force moments with those estimated from the unsteady pressure measured on the front and back casing walls, it was found that the destabilizing moments in the backward precession are mainly caused by the fluid forces on the front surface of the present impeller, where there is large clearance between the back shroud and casing.…”
