Demographic Data Analysis For Measuring Economic Impact Of The Branch Of Nashville, Tessa Pendleton, Annie Wardroup, Nicole Speyrer, Kimberly Amaya Hernandez Apr 2024

Demographic Data Analysis For Measuring Economic Impact Of The Branch Of Nashville, Tessa Pendleton, Annie Wardroup, Nicole Speyrer, Kimberly Amaya Hernandez

Belmont University Research Symposium (BURS)

As part of the Global Honors Scholars Collaborative, researchers aggregated data from The Belmont Data Collaborative to analyze the three primary ZIP codes (37211, 37013, 37217) served by The Branch of Nashville. These communities include immigrant and refugee populations, whom The Branch supports through its food bank, English classes, and further comprehensive care. Future program development will rely on the analysis of the current client base and eventual assessment of The Branch’s economic impact on the surrounding community. The goal of this research for The Branch of Nashville is twofold: (1) analyze the existing demographics within the above ZIP codes …


Identifying Rural Health Clinics Within The Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-Msis) Analytic Files, Katherine Ahrens Mph, Phd, Zachariah Croll, Yvonne Jonk Phd, John Gale Ms, Heidi O'Connor Ms Mar 2024

Identifying Rural Health Clinics Within The Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-Msis) Analytic Files, Katherine Ahrens Mph, Phd, Zachariah Croll, Yvonne Jonk Phd, John Gale Ms, Heidi O'Connor Ms

Rural Health Clinics

Researchers at the Maine Rural Health Research Center describe a methodology for identifying Rural Health Clinic encounters within the Medicaid claims data using Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS) Analytic Files.

Background: There is limited information on the extent to which Rural Health Clinics (RHC) provide pediatric and pregnancy-related services to individuals enrolled in state Medicaid/CHIP programs. In part this is because methods to identify RHC encounters within Medicaid claims data are outdated.

Methods: We used a 100% sample of the 2018 Medicaid Demographic and Eligibility and Other Services Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS) Analytic Files for 20 states …


Infusing Machine Learning And Computational Linguistics Into Clinical Notes, Funke V. Alabi, Onyeka Omose, Omotomilola Jegede Jan 2024

Infusing Machine Learning And Computational Linguistics Into Clinical Notes, Funke V. Alabi, Onyeka Omose, Omotomilola Jegede

Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications

Entering free-form text notes into Electronic Health Records (EHR) systems takes a lot of time from clinicians. A large portion of this paper work is viewed as a burden, which cuts into the amount of time doctors spend with patients and increases the risk of burnout. We will see how machine learning and computational linguistics can be infused in the processing of taking clinical notes. We are presenting a new language modeling task that predicts the content of notes conditioned on historical data from a patient's medical record, such as patient demographics, lab results, medications, and previous notes, with the …


Ethical Data Considerations For Engaging In Reparative Archival Practice, Jamie Rogers, Rhia Rae Nov 2023

Ethical Data Considerations For Engaging In Reparative Archival Practice, Jamie Rogers, Rhia Rae

Works of the FIU Libraries

Archival textually-rich materials--such as warranty deeds, mortgages, legal documents, and letter correspondence--can provide valuable historical insights, and if transcribed and analyzed, can produce data points in the form of unstructured text, tabular data, and geospatial assets. This presentation will provide an overview of the process Florida International University librarians went through to turn the papers of Dana A. Dorsey, Miami's first Black Millionaire, into data. Their work is guided by the concept of "collections as data" as a form of reparative archival practice, enabling the elevation of marginalized individuals' histories. The goal of reparative archival practice is to create a …

Cybersecurity Safeguards: What Cybersecurity Safeguards Could Have Prevented The Intelligence/Data Breach By A Member Of The Air National Guard, Christopher Curtis Royal Aug 2023

Cybersecurity Safeguards: What Cybersecurity Safeguards Could Have Prevented The Intelligence/Data Breach By A Member Of The Air National Guard, Christopher Curtis Royal

Cyber Operations and Resilience Program Graduate Projects

Jack Teixeira, a 21-year-old IT specialist Air National Guard found himself on the wrong side of the US law after sharing what is considered classified and extremely sensitive information about USA's operations and role in Ukraine and Russia war. Like other previous cases of leakage of classified intelligence, the case of Teixeira raises concerns about the weaknesses and vulnerability of federal agencies' IT systems and security protocols governing accessibility to classified documents. Internal leakages of such classified documents hurt national security and can harm the country, especially when such secretive intelligence finds its way into the hands of enemies. Unauthorized …


Fintech Data Infrastructure For Esg Disclosure Compliance, Randall E. Duran, Peter Tierney Aug 2023

Fintech Data Infrastructure For Esg Disclosure Compliance, Randall E. Duran, Peter Tierney

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

Regulations related to the disclosure of environmental, governance, and social (ESG) factors are evolving rapidly and are a major concern for financial compliance worldwide. Information technology has the potential to reduce the effort and cost of ESG disclosure compliance. However, comprehensive and accurate ESG data are necessary for disclosures. Currently, the availability and quality of underlying data for ESG disclosures vary widely and are often deficient. The process involved with obtaining ESG data is also often inefficient and prone to error. This paper compares the models used and the evolution of Fintech data infrastructure developed to support financial services with …

Nviz: Unraveling Neural Networks Through Visualization, Kevin Hoffman Apr 2023

Nviz: Unraveling Neural Networks Through Visualization, Kevin Hoffman

Mathematics and Computer Science Presentations

The growing utility of artificial intelligence (AI) is attributed to the development of neural networks. These networks are a class of models that make predictions based on previously observed data. While the inferential power of neural networks is great, the ability to explain their results is difficult because the underlying model is automatically generated. The AI community commonly refers to neural networks as black boxes because the patterns they learn from the data are not easily understood. This project aims to improve the visibility of patterns that neural networks identify in data. Through an interactive web application, NVIZ affords the …

Earth & Environmental Sciences Datasets

Reducing the amount of leaked natural gas (NG) from pipelines from production to use has become a high priority in efforts to cut anthropogenic emissions of methane and ensure public safety. However, tracking and evaluating NG pipeline leaks, especially at moderate to high flow rates, requires a better understanding of the leak from the source to the detector as well as more robust quantification methods. To better understand fugitive emissions from NG pipelines, we developed a field scale testbed that simulates mid and high-pressure gas leaks from belowground natural gas infrastructure. The system is equipped with subsurface, surface and atmospheric …
