Assessing library topics using sentiment analysis in R: a discussion and code sample

Abstract

This article discusses the use of R programing language for executing a sentiment analysis of tweets pertaining to library topics. This discussion is situated within the literature of marketing and management sciences, which is employing methods of machine learning and business intelligence to make informed decision-making, and library administration, which has expressed great interest in social media engagement within its literature but has yet to adopt these types of analysis. Presented in this article is a sample code with instructions on how users may execute it within R to retrieve and analyze tweets relevant to library services. Two examples created using the code (analysis of top librarians’ tweets and analysis of posts about major book publishers) are used to demonstrate the functionality of the code. The code presented in this article may be used by libraries to analyze tweets about their library and library-related topics, which, in turn, may inform management and marketing design.     

数据治理——图书馆事业的发展机遇

数据驱动发现成为一种新的科学进步路线,产生了新的知识服务对象:愈加重视数据的科学家和工程师、数据科学家、数据工程师、数据分析师、公民科学家等。数据获取需要依靠国家的行政命令、资助机构的政策、研究机构和大学的管理办法等。数据共享存在于不同学科,而且已具备了基础设施,诸如:数据中心、数据云、数据知识库与数据期刊、信息技术中心、数字资源中心等。数据重用需要公共部门、企业、公众、利益相关方在“尽可能地开放,尽责任地封闭”前提下,采取协调一致的行动。在这里,数据馆员扮演重要角色。数据治理生态体系需要图书馆执行数据获取、数据共享、数据重用的政策。通过不断寻找和搜集最佳实践案例,图书馆可以支持数据治理。参考文献79。     

面向数字人文研究的大规模古籍文本可视化分析与挖掘

传统的古籍开发与应用模式已难以适应人文学科研究的需要,人文学科研究者期待一个技术逻辑和人文逻辑相耦合的数字人文研究范式的出现。本文从古籍文献深层次开发与利用出发,利用新的信息技术与面向数字人文研究跨学科方法,以大规模中国古籍文本为研究对象,采用大数据研究理念,对古籍进行整理、标注、自动分词等处理,以词频分析统计为研究核心,采用数据降噪、基于窗口时间单位的统计分析计算、滑动窗口预测等分析与挖掘方法,采用大数据实时分析技术,实现了实时、在线、立体、可视化、定量分析字词的历史词频分布规律,创建了一个以语言学、历史文献学、历史地理学等人文学科研究为主的古籍实时统计分析平台,可辅助研究者在大量的古籍文献中发现新的模式、现象、趋势等,实现古籍开发与应用模式创新的初步尝试。图11。参考文献36。

Human integration through Olympism education: a pragmatic engagement of youths in a war-torn society

This paper delineates the findings of a mixed methods study that investigated how Olympism education could strengthen competencies of human integration through delivery of physical, social, and critical literacy and conflict resolution literacy. The study introduced a curriculum model integrating Olympism values and conflict resolution strategies for the purpose of facilitating human integration. This integrated curriculum model was then tested among a group of young students who represent the two main ethnic groups Sinhalese and Tamils, in a war-torn society in Sri-Lanka. The intervention of this study provided pragmatic involvement for young students as the representatives of the next generation, in order to teach them the convergence and contradictions of perceptions of social reform ideals through sport. Results revealed that conflict resolution strategies combined with Olympism education integrated curriculum intervention significantly improved young students’ conflict resolution competencies, regardless of their gender or ethnicity. This study demonstrated significant gains in the ability of young students to learn about human integration through learning about Olympism within sport and physical education lessons, in regards to effective conflict resolution.     

Placing wireless tablets in clinical settings for patient education

Objective

The authors explored the feasibility and possible benefit of tablet-based educational materials for patients in clinic waiting areas.

Methods

We distributed eight tablets preloaded with diagnosis-relevant information in two clinic waiting areas. Patients were surveyed about satisfaction, usability, and effects on learning. Technical issues were resolved.

Results

Thirty-seven of forty patients completed the survey. On average, the patients were satisfied in all categories.

Conclusions

Placing tablet-based educational materials in clinic waiting areas is relatively easy to implement. Patients using tablets reported satisfaction across three domains: usability, education, and satisfaction.

数据交叉表在实际生活中的应用与理论分析

数据库在计算机发展的今天已经越来越广泛地被使用,而数据库中数据的多种形式变换更是经常的,其中行列数据的变换是较难的,通过对该问题进行深入分析,联想到关系表中数据的逻辑形式,利用Excel的数据透视表和VFP中的交叉表来实现行列数据交换较为合适,进而利用SQL查询语句分析了行列数据交换的实质。     

C语言和PASCAL语言的对比学习

掌握了一门程序设计语言后学习其它的语言课程，应有意识地进行对比。文中重点从数据结构、语言工具两个方面比较了C语言和PASCAL语言的异同并进一步指出：在学习进程中贯穿对比思维，可达到事半功倍、温故知新的效果。
