Smart city: an advanced framework for analyzing public sentiment orientation toward recycled water

The coronavirus pandemic of the past several years has had a profound impact on all aspects of life, including resource utilization. One notable example is the increased demand for freshwater, a lifeblood of our planet, on the other hand, the smart city vision aims to attain a smart water management goal by investing in innovative solutions such as recycled water systems. However, the problem lies in the public’s sentiment and willingness to use this new resource which discourages investors and hinders the development of this field. Therefore, in our work, we applied sentiment analysis using an extended version of the fuzzy logic and neural network model from our previous work, to find out the general public opinion regarding recycled water and to assess the effects of sentiments on the public’s readiness to use this resource. Our analysis was based on a dataset of over 1 million text content from 2013 to 2022. The results show, from spatio-temporal perspectives, that sentiment orientation and acceptance-behavior towards using recycled water have increased positively. Additionally, the public is more concerned in areas driven by the smart city vision than in areas of medium and low economic development, where investment in sensibilization campaigns is needed

COVID-19 Vaccination and PPKM Policy with the Implementation of the Fuzzy Sugeno Method to Income Classification

This study aims to determine the implementation of Fuzzy Sugeno in classifying textual data obtained from Twitter so as to determine the polarity of public opinion regarding PPKM policies and Covid-19 vaccinations. This study uses primary data via Twitter related to COVID-19 vaccination and PPKM policies in Indonesia starting from February 9, 2021 to January 17, 2022. There are several stages carried out, namely data collection, data pre-processing, data labeling, data weighting. , identification of membership functions, determination of fuzzy sets, formation of classification systems, and evaluation of classification results. The results of this study explain that Fuzzy Sugeno's performance in classifying tweets is quite good with an average accuracy of 89.13%. Meanwhile, public opinion regarding PPKM policies and Covid-19 vaccinations tends to be balanced with 36.92% of tweets classified as positive sentiments, 22.85% negative sentiments, and another 40.23% classified as neutral sentiments. In addition, the fuzzy set that is formed based on the data observation method is very well done because it is able to adjust the frequency of the data in each category. This really helps improve the performance of the built classification system.

Fuzzy Sugeno Method for Opinion Classification Regarding Policy of PPKM and Covid-19 Vaccination

The Indonesian government has implemented various interventions to overcome the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, including those written in Minister of Home Affairs Instructions on PPKM (Community Activities Restrictions Enforcement) and Covid-19 vaccination policies. This policy are not at least reaping the pros and cons, so it is necessary to monitor public opinion to be able to provide solutions or become an evaluation of future policies. The aim of this study is to determine the polarity of public opinion regarding PPKM and Covid-19 vaccinations policies on Twitter, as well as to determine the implementation of FIS Sugeno in classifying textual data. There are several stages carried out, i.e. data collection, data pre-processing, data labeling, data weighting, identification of membership functions, determination of fuzzy sets, formation of a classification system, and evaluation of classification results. In this study, the performance of FIS Sugeno in classifying tweets was quite good with an average accuracy of 89.13%. Meanwhile, public opinion regarding the PPKM and Covid-19 vaccination policies tends to be balanced with 36.92% of tweets classified as a positive sentiments, 22.85% being negative sentiments, and another 40.23% belonging to neutral sentiments

New perspectives on realism, tractability, and complexity in economics

Fuzzy logic and genetic algorithms are used to rework more realistic (and more complex) models of competitive markets. The resulting equilibria are significantly different from the ones predicted from the usual static analysis; the methodology solves the Walrasian problem of how markets can reach equilibrium, starting with firms trading at disparate prices. The modified equilibria found in these complex market models involve some mutual self-restraint on the part of the agents involved, relative to economically rational behaviour. Research (using similar techniques) into the evolution of collaborative behaviours in economics, and of altruism generally, is summarized; and the joint significance of these two bodies of work for public policy is reviewed. The possible extension of the fuzzy/ genetic methodology to other technical aspects of economics (including international trade theory, and development) is also discussed, as are the limitations to the usefulness of any type of theory in political domains. For the latter purpose, a more differentiated concept of rationality, appropriate to ill-structured choices, is developed. The philosophical case for laissez-faire policies is considered briefly; and the prospects for change in the way we ‘do economics’ are analysed

A Sentiment Analysis Using Fuzzy Support Vector Machine Algorithm

The Ministry of Communication and Information and the Ministry of BUMN of The Republic of Indonesia designed a mobile app “Peduli Lindungi” to be used to help the public and related government agencies in carrying out screening and tracing people's movement to stop the spread of Corona Virus Disease (Covid-19).The existence of a mobile app, “Peduli Lindungi” triggers abundant different sentiments from the Indonesian community, either positive or negative sentiments. Based on the positive sentiment, the government of the Republic of Indonesia may have some feedback about the aspects of the app that should be maintained. In contrast, negative sentiments can be used as initial points of the potential improvement of the mobile app. This study applies a Fuzzy Support Vector Machine (FSVM) model to classify the user's reviews on Peduli Lindungi Application. FSVM can classify customers’ reviews into two or more classes and relatively results in higher accuracy than other classification approaches. The results of this study indicate that the classification of reviews with FSVM produces quite good accuracy  with a value of 77%. A total correct prediction is 2192 reviews out of 2813 reviews

Fine-grained sentiment analysis for measuring customer satisfaction using an extended set of fuzzy linguistic hedges

© 2020 The Authors. Published by Atlantis Press SARL. In recent years, the boom in social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter has brought people together for the sharing of opinions, sentiments, emotions, and experiences about products, events, politics, and other topics. In particular, sentiment-based applications are growing in popularity among individuals and businesses for the making of purchase decisions. Fuzzy-based sentiment analysis aims at classifying customer sentiment at a fine-grained level. This study deals with the development of a fuzzy-based sentiment analysis by extending fuzzy hedges and rule-sets for a more efficient classification of customer sentiment and satisfaction. Prior studies have used a limited number of linguistic hedges and polarity classes in their rule-sets, resulting in the degraded efficiency of their fuzzy-based sentiment analysis systems. The proposed analysis of the current study classifies customer reviews using fuzzy linguistic hedges and an extended rule-set with seven sentiment analysis classes, namely extremely positive, very positive, positive, neutral, negative, very negative, and extremely negative. Then, a fuzzy logic system is applied to measure customer satisfaction at a fine-grained level. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed analysis has an improved performance over the baseline works
