    Generation of social network user profiles and their relationship with suicidal behaviour
    (Sociedad Española para el Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural, 2024) Fernández Hernández, Jorge; Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes; Martínez Romo, Juan
    Actualmente el suicidio es una de las principales causas de muerte en el mundo, por lo que poder caracterizar a personas con esta tendencia puede ayudar a prevenir posibles intentos de suicidio. En este trabajo se ha recopilado un corpus, llamado SuicidAttempt en español compuesto por usuarios con o sin menciones explícitas de intentos de suicidio, usando la aplicación de mensajería Telegram. Para cada uno de los usuarios se han anotado distintos rasgos demográficos de manera semi-automática mediante el empleo de distintos sistemas, en unos casos supervisados y en otros no supervisados. Por último se han analizado estos rasgos recogidos, junto con otros lingüísticos extraídos de los mensajes de los usuarios, para intentar caracterizar distintos grupos en base a su relación con el comportamiento suicida. Los resultados sugieren que la detección de estos rasgos demográficos y psicolingüísticos permiten caracterizar determinados grupos de riesgo y conocer en profundidad los perfiles que realizan dichos actos.

    Deep-Learning Approach to Educational Text Mining and Application to the Analysis of Topics’ Difficulty
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020-12-02) Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes; López Ostenero, Fernando; Martínez Romo, Juan; Plaza Morales, Laura
    Learning analytics has emerged as a promising tool for optimizing the learning experience and results, especially in online educational environments. An important challenge in this area is identifying the most difficult topics for students in a subject, which is of great use to improve the quality of teaching by devoting more effort to those topics of greater difficulty, assigning them more time, resources and materials. We have approached the problem by means of natural language processing techniques. In particular, we propose a solution based on a deep learning model that automatically extracts the main topics that are covered in educational documents. This model is next applied to the problem of identifying the most difficult topics for students in a subject related to the study of algorithms and data structures in a Computer Science degree. Our results show that our topic identification model presents very high accuracy (around 90 percent) and may be efficiently used in learning analytics applications, such as the identification and understanding of what makes the learning of a subject difficult. An exhaustive analysis of the case study has also revealed that there are indeed topics that are consistently more difficult for most students, and also that the perception of difficulty in students and teachers does not always coincide with the actual difficulty indicated by the data, preventing to pay adequate attention to the most challenging topics.

    Structure of morphologically expanded queries : a genetic algorithm approach
    (Elsevier, 2009-10-13) Zaragoza, Hugo; Pérez Agüera, José R.; Pérez Iglesias, Joaquín; Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes
    In this paper we deal with two issues. First, we discuss the negative effects of term correlation in query expansion algorithms, and we propose a novel and simple method (query clauses) to represent expanded queries which may alleviate some of these negative effects. Second, we discuss a method to optimize local query-expansion methods using genetic algorithms, and we apply this method to improve stemming. We evaluate this method with the novel query representation method and show very significant improvements for the problem of stemming optimization.

    Detección de Indicios de Autolesiones No Suicidas en Informes Médicos de Psiquiatría Mediante el Análisis del Lenguaje
    (Sociedad Española para el Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural, 2022) Reneses, Blanca; Sevilla-Llewellyn-Jones, Julia; Martínez-Capella, Ignacio; Seara-Aguilar, Germán; Martínez Romo, Juan; Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes
    La autolesión no suicida, a menudo denominada autolesión, es el acto de dañarse deliberadamente el propio cuerpo, como cortarse o quemarse. Normalmente, no pretende ser un intento de suicidio. En este trabajo se presenta un sistema de detección de indicios de autolesiones no suicidas, basado en el análisis del lenguaje, sobre un conjunto anotado de informes médicos obtenidos del servicio de psiquiatría de un Hospital público madrileño. Tanto la explicabilidad como la precisión a la hora de predecir los casos positivos, son los dos principales objetivos de este trabajo. Para lograr este fin se han desarrollado dos sistemas supervisados de diferente naturaleza. Por un lado se ha llevado a cabo un proceso de extracción de diferentes rasgos centrados en el propio mundo de las autolesiones mediante técnicas de procesamiento del lenguaje natural para alimentar posteriormente un clasificador tradicional. Por otro lado, se ha implementado un sistema de aprendizaje profundo basado en varias capas de redes neuronales convolucionales, debido a su gran desempeño en tareas de clasificación de textos. El resultado es el funcionamiento de dos sistemas supervisados con un gran rendimiento, en donde destacamos el sistema basado en un clasificador tradicional debido a su mejor predicción de clases positivas y la mayor facilidad de cara a explicar sus resultados a los profesionales sanitarios.

    Can deep learning techniques improve classification performance of vandalism detection in Wikipedia?
    (Elsevier, 2019) Martinez-Rico, Juan R.; Martínez Romo, Juan; Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes
    Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia created as an international collaborative project. One of its peculiarities is that any user can edit its contents almost without restrictions, what has given rise to a phenomenon known as vandalism. Vandalism is any attempt that seeks to damage the integrity of the encyclopedia deliberately. To address this problem, in recent years several automatic detection systems and associated features have been developed. This work implements one of these systems, which uses three sets of new features based on different techniques. Specifically we study the applicability of a leading technology as deep learning to the problem of vandalism detection. The first set is obtained by expanding a list of vandal terms taking advantage of the existing semantic-similarity relations in word embeddings and deep neural networks. Deep learning techniques are applied to the second set of features, specifically Stacked Denoising Autoencoders (SDA), in order to reduce the dimensionality of a bag of words model obtained from a set of edits taken from Wikipedia. The last set uses graph-based ranking algorithms to generate a list of vandal terms from a vandalism corpus extracted from Wikipedia. These three sets of new features are evaluated separately as well as together to study their complementarity, improving the results in the state of the art. The system evaluation has been carried out on a corpus extracted from Wikipedia (WP_Vandal) as well as on another called PAN-WVC-2010 that was used in a vandalism detection competition held at CLEF conference.

    Negation-based transfer learning for improving biomedical Named Entity Recognition and Relation Extraction
    (Elsevier, 2023-02) Fabregat Marcos, Hermenegildo; Duque Fernández, Andrés; Martínez Romo, Juan; Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes
    Background and Objectives: Named Entity Recognition (NER) and Relation Extraction (RE) are two of the most studied tasks in biomedical Natural Language Processing (NLP). The detection of specific terms and entities and the relationships between them are key aspects for the development of more complex automatic systems in the biomedical field. In this work, we explore transfer learning techniques for incorporating information about negation into systems performing NER and RE. The main purpose of this research is to analyse to what extent the successful detection of negated entities in separate tasks helps in the detection of biomedical entities and their relationships. Methods: Three neural architectures are proposed in this work, all of them mainly based on Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) networks and Conditional Random Fields (CRFs). While the first architecture is devoted to detecting triggers and scopes of negated entities in any domain, two specific models are developed for performing isolated NER tasks and joint NER and RE tasks in the biomedical domain. Then, weights related to negation detection learned by the first architecture are incorporated into those last models. Two different languages, Spanish and English, are taken into account in the experiments. Results: Performance of the biomedical models is analysed both when the weights of the neural networks are randomly initialized, and when weights from the negation detection model are incorporated into them. Improvements of around 3.5% of F-Measure in the English language and more than 7% in the Spanish language are achieved in the NER task, while the NER+RE task increases F-Measure scores by more than 13% for the NER submodel and around 2% for the RE submodel. Conclusions: The obtained results allow us to conclude that negation-based transfer learning techniques are appropriate for performing biomedical NER and RE tasks. These results highlight the importance of detecting negation for improving the identification of biomedical entities and their relationships. The explored echniques show robustness by maintaining consistent results and improvements across different tasks and languages.

    Detecting malicious tweets in trending topics using a statistical analysis of language
    (Elsevier, 2013-06-01) Martínez Romo, Juan; Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes
    Twitter spam detection is a recent area of research in which most previous works had focused on the identification of malicious user accounts and honeypot-based approaches. However, in this paper we present a methodology based on two new aspects: the detection of spam tweets in isolation and without previous information of the user; and the application of a statistical analysis of language to detect spam in trending topics. Trending topics capture the emerging Internet trends and topics of discussion that are in everybody’s lips. This growing microblogging phenomenon therefore allows spammers to disseminate malicious tweets quickly and massively. In this paper we present the first work that tries to detect spam tweets in real time using language as the primary tool. We first collected and labeled a large dataset with 34 K trending topics and 20 million tweets. Then, we have proposed a reduced set of features hardly manipulated by spammers. In addition, we have developed a machine learning system with some orthogonal features that can be combined with other sets of features with the aim of analyzing emergent characteristics of spam in social networks. We have also conducted an extensive evaluation process that has allowed us to show how our system is able to obtain an F-measure at the same level as the best state-ofthe- art systems based on the detection of spam accounts. Thus, our system can be applied to Twitter spam detection in trending topics in real time due mainly to the analysis of tweets instead of user accounts.

    Web spam detection : new classification features based on qualified link analysis and language models
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2010-09-01) Araujo Serna, M. Lourdes; Martínez Romo, Juan
    Web spam is a serious problem for search engines because the quality of their results can be severely degraded by the presence of this kind of page. In this paper, we present an efficient spam detection system based on a classifier that combines new link-based features with language-model (LM)-based ones. These features are not only related to quantitative data extracted from the Web pages, but also to qualitative properties, mainly of the page links.We consider, for instance, the ability of a search engine to find, using information provided by the page for a given link, the page that the link actually points at. This can be regarded as indicative of the link reliability. We also check the coherence between a page and another one pointed at by any of its links. Two pages linked by a hyperlink should be semantically related, by at least a weak contextual relation. Thus, we apply an LM approach to different sources of information from aWeb page that belongs to the context of a link, in order to provide high-quality indicators of Web spam. We have specifically applied the Kullback–Leibler divergence on different combinations of these sources of information in order to characterize the relationship between two linked pages. The result is a system that significantly improves the detection of Web spam using fewer features, on two large and public datasets such as WEBSPAM-UK2006 and WEBSPAM-UK2007.
