University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2019Twitter and Facebook are the renowned social networking platforms where users post, share, interact and express to the world, their interests, personality, and behavioral information. User-created content on social media can be a source of truth, which is suitable to be consumed for the personality identification of social media users. Personality assessment using the Big 5 personality factor model benefits organizations in identifying potential professionals, future leaders, best-fit candidates for the role, and build effective teams. Also, the Big 5 personality factors help to understand depression symptoms among aged people in primary care. We had hypothesized that understanding the user personality of the social network would have significant benefits for topic modeling of different areas like news, towards understanding community interests, and topics. In this thesis, we will present a multi-label personality classification of the social media data and topic feature classification model based on the Big 5 model. We have built the Big 5 personality classification model using a Twitter dataset that has defined openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism. In this thesis, we (1) conduct personality detection using the Big 5 model, (2) extract the topics from Facebook and Twitter data based on each personality, (3) analyze the top essential topics, and (4) find the relation between topics and personalities. The personality would be useful to identify what kind of personality, which topics usually talk about in social media. Multi-label classification is done using Multinomial Naïve Bayes, Logistic Regression, Linear SVC. Topic Modeling is done based on LDA and KATE. Experimental results with Twitter and Facebook data demonstrate that the proposed model has achieved promising results.Introduction -- Background and related work -- Proposed framework -- Results and evaluations -- Conclusion and future wor

The Transformation of Accounting Information Systems Curriculum in the Last Decade

Accounting information systems (AIS) are an extremely important component of accounting and accounting education. The purpose of the current study is to examine the transformation of accounting information systems (AIS) curriculum in the last decade. The motivation for this research comes from the vast advances made in the world of information technology (IT) and information systems (IS). The specific research questions addressed in the current study are: (1) how has AIS curriculum changed in the 18 years since SOX? (2) How has AIS curriculum adjusted in recent years with the emergence of the new hot-button topic big data/data analytics? Overall, this study finds that the core of AIS curriculum has not significantly changed over the last decade. However, more emphasis is being placed on topics such as enterprise wide systems/ERP, IT audits, computer fraud, and transaction-processing. Related, several new topical coverages have been introduced such as business analysts and big data/data analytics. The key contribution of this paper is to provide accounting students and accounting educators with useful information regarding the most significant shifts in AIS over the last decade and insight into the most valuable current AIS topics

International conference on software engineering and knowledge engineering: Session chair

The Thirtieth International Conference on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (SEKE 2018) will be held at the Hotel Pullman, San Francisco Bay, USA, from July 1 to July 3, 2018. SEKE2018 will also be dedicated in memory of Professor Lofti Zadeh, a great scholar, pioneer and leader in fuzzy sets theory and soft computing. The conference aims at bringing together experts in software engineering and knowledge engineering to discuss on relevant results in either software engineering or knowledge engineering or both. Special emphasis will be put on the transference of methods between both domains. The theme this year is soft computing in software engineering & knowledge engineering. Submission of papers and demos are both welcome

A Supportive Framework for the Development of a Digital Twin for Wind Turbines Using Open-Source Software Tiril Malmedal Mechanics and Process Technology

The world is facing a global climate crisis. Renewable energy is one of the big solutions, nevertheless, there are technological challenges. Wind power is an important part of the renewable energy system. With the digitalization of industry, smart monitoring and operation is an important step towards efficient use of resources. Thus, Digital Twins (DT) should be applied to enhance power output. Digital Twins for energy systems combine many fields of study, such as smart monitoring, big data technology, and advanced physical modeling. Frameworks for the structure of Digital Twins are many, but there are few standardized methods based on the experience of such developed Digital Twins. An integrative review on the topic of Digital Twins with the goal of creating a conceptual development framework for DTs with open-source software is performed. However, the framework is yet to be tested experimentally but is nevertheless an important contribution toward the understanding of DT technology development. The result of the review is a seven-step framework identifying potential components and methods needed to create a fully developed DT for the aerodynamics of a wind turbine. Suggested steps are Assessment, Create, Communicate, Aggregate, Analyze, Insight, and Act. The goal is that the framework can stimulate more research on digital twins for small-scale wind power. Thus, making small-scale wind power more accessible and affordable

From the past few years, it also became an attractive research area in visual computing. From the computational point of view, by far speech and text have been the most considered cues of information for analyzing personality. However, recently there has been an increasing interest from the computer vision community in analyzing personality from visual data. Recent computer vision approaches are able to accurately analyze human faces, body postures and behaviors, and use these information to infer apparent personality traits. Because of the overwhelming research interest in this topic, and of the potential impact that this sort of methods could have in society, we present in this paper an up-to-date review of existing vision-based approaches for apparent personality trait recognition. We describe seminal and cutting edge works on the subject, discussing and comparing their distinctive features and limitations. Future venues of research in the field are identified and discussed. Furthermore, aspects on the subjectivity in data labeling/evaluation, as well as current datasets and challenges organized to push the research on the field are reviewed.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft
