SMU Data Science Review

In the age of hyper-connectivity, 24/7 news cycles, and instant news alerts via social media, mental health researchers don't have a way to automatically detect news content which is associated with triggering anxiety or depression in mental health patients. Using the Associated Press news wire, a semantic network was built with 1,056 news articles containing over 500,000 connections across multiple topics to provide a personalized algorithm which detects problematic news content for a given reader. We make use of Semantic Network Analysis to surface the relationship between news article text and anxiety in readers who struggle with mental health disorders. …

A Data Driven Approach To Forecast Demand, Hannah Kosinovsky, Sita Daggubati, Kumar Ramasundaram, Brent Allen

SMU Data Science Review

Abstract. In this paper, we present a model and methodology for accurately predicting the following quarter’s sales volume of individual products given the previous five years of sales data. Forecasting product demand for a single supplier is complicated by seasonal demand variation, business cycle impacts, and customer churn. We developed a novel prediction using machine learning methodology, based upon a Dense neural network (DNN) model that implicitly considers cyclical demand variation and explicitly considers customer churn while minimizing the least absolute error between predicted demand and actual sales. Using parts sales data for a supplier to the oil and gas …
