This paper presents KD SENSO-MERGER, a novel Knowledge Discovery (KD) architecture that is capable of semantically integrating heterogeneous data from various sources of structured and unstructured data (i.e. geolocations, demographic, socio-economic, user reviews, and comments). This goal drives the main design approach of the architecture. It works by building internal representations that adapt and merge knowledge across multiple domains, ensuring that the knowledge base is continuously updated. To deal with the challenge of integrating heterogeneous data, this proposal puts forward the corresponding solutions: (i) knowledge extraction, addressed via a plugin-based architecture of knowledge sensors; (ii) data integrity, tackled by an architecture designed to deal with uncertain or noisy information; (iii) scalability, this is also supported by the plugin-based architecture as only relevant knowledge to the scenario is integrated by switching-off non-relevant sensors. Also, we minimize the expert knowledge required, which may pose a bottleneck when integrating a fast-paced stream of new sources. As proof of concept, we developed a case study that deploys the architecture to integrate population census and economic data, municipal cartography, and Google Reviews to analyze the socio-economic contexts of educational institutions. The knowledge discovered enables us to answer questions that are not possible through individual sources. Thus, companies or public entities can discover patterns of behavior or relationships that would otherwise not be visible and this would allow extracting valuable information for the decision-making process.

The spread of fake news (FN) has attracted attention from disciplines ranging from social sciences to Artificial Intelligence. This work is novel because it explores the news-sharing behaviour of social-media users, focussing on those that spread FN, rather than the psychological motivations behind them. The 14-item Risky News-Sharing Quotient (RNSQ) was developed and Exploratory Factor Analysis discovered three relevant factors: (i) news-sharing behaviour that contributes to debunking FN; (ii) news-sharing frequency and attitudes to sharing; and (iii) news-sharing behaviour that contributes to the spread of FN. The study, conducted among university students, found that 75% reported risky news-sharing behaviour that spreads FN. No link was found between perceiving FN as a problem and debunking it. Moreover, 83% of survey participants were unable to identify a FN story. Overall, the findings suggest an inability to apply knowledge of the relevant FN detection strategies to debunk FN, but importantly an apparent lack of motivation to check the veracity of a news story. From these conclusions, better-informed educational intervention strategies can be implemented to address the FN problem in-situ, such as promoting the importance of responsible news-sharing by raising awareness of how the spread of FN can impede the proper functioning of societies.

Recent research has shown that the unaware automation of high-risk decision-making tasks can result in unfair decisions being made. The most common approaches to address this problem adopt definitions of fairness based on protected attributes. Precise annotation of protected attributes enables the application of bias mitigation techniques to commonly unlabeled kinds of data (e.g., images, text, etc.). This paper proposes a framework to automatically annotate protected attributes in data collections. The framework focuses on providing a single interface to annotate protected attributes of different types (e.g., gender, race, etc.) and from different kinds of data. Internally, the framework coordinates multiple sensors to produce the final annotation. Several sensors for textual data are proposed. An optimization search technique is designed to tune the framework to specific domains. Additionally, a small dataset of movie reviews —annotated with gender and sentiment— was created. The evaluation in datasets of texts from diverse domains shows the quality of the annotations and their effectiveness to be used as a proxy to estimate fairness in datasets and machine learning models. The source code is available online for the research community.

The objective of Geo-IA is to research, design and implement a Geo-Smart Artificial Intelligence technology platform for public and private business organizations. The GeoIA project presents a geolocation platform that integrates technological innovation to support a strategy for the creation of a Smart Territories. To do this, Text Mining, Machine Learning (including deep learning) and Natural Language Processing technologies are deployed. The functionality of the geolocation platform is to analyze, integrate, share data, visualize and represent territorial indicators, with the aim of facilitating the monitoring and fulfillment of territorial strategies. In short, GeoIA promotes interoperability between public administration bodies and also provides citizens with mechanisms to access information of interest, where the magnitude of the integrated and interrelated data permits. GeoIA also provides digital knowledge (tools, linked information, semantics, virtual assistants) for use by public administrations to enhance their decision making through greater knowledge of the environment and to improve services to citizens.

Los modelos de aprendizaje automático están siendo ampliamente utilizados en múltiples áreas de la vida humana. Tradicionalmente, se han aplicado en reconocimiento de voz, detección de rostros, clasificación de imágenes, sistemas de recomendación, etc. Con la reciente revolución de los modelos generativos, la popularidad de los chatbots conversacionales se ha disparado. Esto ha dado lugar a que los modelos de aprendizaje automático se utilicen cada vez más para abordar tareas para las que no estaban específicamente capacitados. El prompt engineering ha permitido que personas no expertas en aprendizaje automático (que comúnmente tampoco están familiarizadas con los problemas subyacentes al uso de modelos de aprendizaje automático para hacer predicciones) automaticen ciertas tareas. La incorporación de algoritmos de aprendizaje automático en tareas de toma de decisiones de alto riesgo ha levantado algunas alertas en la comunidad científica. Las tareas de toma de decisiones de alto riesgo denotan aquellas tareas que pueden tener un gran impacto en las vidas de las personas sobre quienes se toman las decisiones. Por ejemplo, se han utilizado modelos para decidir si una persona es contratada o no, si se le concede un préstamo, si se acepta una solicitud de cobertura ampliada de seguridad sanitaria y para predecir la probabilidad de reincidencia en un delito. Estudios han demostrado que la automatización inconsciente de este tipo de tareas contiene sesgos, lo cual provoca que decisiones injustas sean tomadas sobre determinados grupos de población. El peligro fundamental de ignorar este problema es que los métodos de aprendizaje automático podrían no sólo reflejar los sesgos presentes en nuestra sociedad, sino que también amplificarlos. Esta tesis presenta el diseño y validación de una tecnología para asistir la automatización justa de problemas de clasificación. En esencia, la propuesta se basa en diseñar una tecnología que saque provecho de las soluciones intermedias gen

This work presents a standardised approach to create datasets for Science and Technology Parks (STPs), facilitating future analysis of STP characteristics, trends and performance. STPs are the most representative examples of innovation ecosystems. The ETL (extraction-transformation-load) structure was adapted to a global field study of STPs. A selection stage and quality check were incorporated, and the methodology was applied to Spanish STPs. This study applies diverse techniques such as expert labelling and information extraction which uses language technologies. A novel methodology for building quality and standardised STP datasets was designed and applied to a Spanish STP case study with 49 STPs. An updatable dataset and a list of the main features impacting STPs are presented. Twenty-one (n = 21) core features were refined and selected, with fifteen of them (71.4 %) being robust enough for developing further quality analysis. The methodology presented integrates different sources with heterogeneous information that is often decentralised, disaggregated and in different formats: excel files, and unstructured information in HTML or PDF format. The existence of this updatable dataset and the defined methodology will enable powerful AI tools to be applied that focus on more sophisticated analysis, such as taxonomy, monitoring, and predictive and prescriptive analytics in the innovation ecosystems field.

This study contributes to English for Specific Purposes (ESP) pedagogy by providing an updated examination of conceptual metaphor types (CMTs) employed in financial markets reporting. The investigation delves into the prevalence of CMTs in both social media and mainstream media contexts. Robust patterns were identified to distinguish CMT usage between mainstream and social media by leveraging big-scale data analysis, encompassing 38.6 million documents from The Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, Twitter and Reddit. The data collection spans fifteen months during the COVID-19 pandemic (January 2020–March 2021), marked by socioeconomic upheaval and coinciding with a surge in retail investors using low or no-cost mobile financial trading applications. Examining the proportion of CMTs reveals that war/combat, markets animate, markets inanimate, and health metaphor types have strong associations with both social and mainstream media. The gambling CMT is predominantly linked to social media. In terms of metaphor density, the results indicate a higher concentration in social media compared to mainstream media. Texts sourced from social media, characterized by greater conciseness, emerge as a potential communication barrier. The findings underscore the importance of incorporating authentic texts from social media into specialized language courses, thus enhancing language learning experiences in the domain of financial markets reporting.

Large language models have shown impressive performance in Natural Language Processing tasks, but their black box characteristics render the explainability of the model’s decision difficult to achieve and the integration of semantic knowledge. There has been a growing interest in combining external knowledge sources with language models to address these drawbacks. This paper, OntoLM, proposes a novel architecture combining an ontology with a pre-trained language model to classify biomedical entities in text. This approach involves constructing and processing graphs from ontologies and then using a graph neural network to contextualize each entity. Next, the language model and the graph neural network output are combined into a final classifier. Results show that OntoLM improves the classification of entities in medical texts using a set of categories obtained from the Unified Medical Language System. We can create more traceable natural language processing architectures using ontology graphs and graph neural networks., Los grandes modelos de lenguaje han mostrado un rendimiento impresionante en tareas de Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural, pero su condición de caja negra hace difícil explicar las decisiones del modelo e integrar conocimiento semántico. Existe un interés creciente en combinar fuentes de conocimiento externas con LLMs para solventar estos inconvenientes. En este artículo, proponemos OntoLM, una arquitectura novedosa que combina una ontología con un modelo de lenguaje pre-entrenado para clasificar entidades biomédicas en texto. El enfoque propuesto consiste en construir y procesar grafos provenientes de una ontología utilizando una red neuronal de grafos para contextualizar cada entidad. A continuación, combinamos los resultados del modelo de lenguaje y la red neuronal de grafos en un clasificador final. Los resultados muestran que OntoLM mejora la clasificación de entidades en textos médicos utilizando un conjunto de categorías obtenidas de Unified Medical Language System. Utilizando grafos de ontologías y redes neuronales de grafos podemos crear arquitecturas de procesamiento de lenguaje natural más rastreables.

En la actualidad existen múltiples modelos de inteligencia artificial centrados en la detección de entidades nombradas, que son capaces de detectar una amplia variedad de aspectos. En este trabajo, se centran esos aspectos a enfermedades raras, detectándolas en textos del ámbito clínico. Todos esos textos clínicos son resúmenes de documentos científicos publicados en PubMed. De las enfermedades, no solo se detectarán sus nombres en sí, sino que se quieren detectar una amplia variedad de aspectos relacionados con esas enfermedades, como por ejemplo, sus causas, tratamientos, diagnósticos... Todos esos aspectos se clasificarán en una serie de categorías. Las anotaciones del modelo se generarán, en primera instancia, de forma automática, usando la herramienta Metathesaurus, contenida dentro de UMLS, un sistema de lenguaje médico. Metathesaurus contiene más de 3 millones de conceptos, siendo la inmensa mayoría del ámbito clínico. Además, cuenta con una serie de categorías ya definidas, y con los conceptos clasificados en estas categorías. Para cada texto, se cuenta con un archivo txt que contiene el texto y un archivo ann que contiene sus anotaciones. Esas anotaciones se encuentran definidas en formato BRAT, un formato de anotación que permite después visualizarlas de forma fácil, modificarlas y crear nuevas. Para cada anotación, se especifica el inicio, final, la categoría a la que pertenece y las palabras o grupos de palabras sobre las que se aplica. Una vez se cuenta con esas anotaciones, es posible revisarlas manualmente para que el corpus sea de la mayor calidad posible, pero al tener una base ya de anotaciones, esta tarea será más ágil. La clasificación que se debe de realizar es compleja, ya que contiene bastantes categorías, además de que cada palabra (o grupos de palabras) pueden pertenecer a la vez a varias clases, por lo que las anotaciones se pueden superponer tanto de forma estricta (mismo inicio y final) como de forma parcial. Para la obtención del modelo

The large amount of information in digital format that exists today makes it unfeasible to use manual means to acquire the knowledge contained in these documents. Therefore, it is necessary to develop tools that allow us to incorporate this knowledge into a structure that is easy to use by both machines and humans. This paper presents a system that can incorporate the relevant information from a document in any format, structured or unstructured, into a semantic network that represents the existing knowledge in the document. The system independently processes from structured documents based on its annotation scheme to unstructured documents, written in natural language, for which it uses a set of sensors that identifies the relevant information and subsequently incorporates it to enrich the semantic network that is created by linking all the information based on the knowledge discovered.

The role played by science and technology parks (STPs) in technology transfer, industrial innovation, and economic growth is examined in this paper. The accurate monitoring of their evolution and impact is hindered by the lack of uniformity in STP models or goals, and the scarcity of high-quality datasets. This work uses existing terminologies, definitions, and core features of STPs to conduct a multidimensional data analysis that explores and evaluates the 21 core features which describe the key internal factors of an STP. The core features are gathered from a reliable and updatable dataset of Spanish STPs. The methodological framework can be replicated for other STP contexts and is based on descriptive techniques and machine-learning tools. The results of the study provide an overview of the general situation of STPs in Spain, validate the existence and characteristics of three types of STPs, and identify the typical features of STPs. Moreover, the prototype STP can be used as a benchmark so that other STPs can identify the features that need to be improved. Finally, this work makes it possible to carry out classifications of STPs, in addition to prediction and decision making for innovation ecosystems.

The project T2Know presents the use of natural language processing technologies for the creation of a semantic platform of scientific documents via knowledge graphs. This knowledge graph will link relevant parts of each document with those of other documents in such a way that trend analysis and recommendations can be achieved. The goals addressed within the scope of this project include entity recognizers development, profile definition and documents linkage through the use of transformers technologies. As a result, the relevant parts of the documents to be extracted are related not only to the title and affiliation of the authors, but also to article topics such as references, which are also considered relevant parts of the scientific article.

Generative language models achieve the state of the art in many tasks within natural language processing (NLP). Although these models correctly capture syntactic information, they fail to interpret knowledge (semantics). Moreover, the lack of interpretability of these models promotes the use of other technologies as a replacement or complement to generative language models. This is the case with research focused on incorporating knowledge by resorting to knowledge bases mainly in the form of graphs. The generation of large knowledge graphs is carried out with unsupervised or semi-supervised techniques, which promotes the validation of this knowledge with the same type of techniques due to the size of the generated databases. In this review, we will explain the different techniques used to test and infer knowledge from graph structures with machine learning algorithms. The motivation of validating and inferring knowledge is to use correct knowledge in subsequent tasks with improved embeddings.

El modelado de skipgrams es una técnica para la generación de términos multi-palabra que conserva parte de la secuencialidad y flexibilidad del lenguaje. Sin embargo, en algunos casos el número de skipgrams generados puede ser excesivo a medida que se aumenta la distancia entre palabras. Además, esta distancia no suele ser tenida en cuenta a la hora de valorar los términos que se generan. En este trabajo proponemos una técnica para la generación y filtrado eficientes de skipgrams y un esquema de pesado que tiene en cuenta la distancia entre los términos, dando más importancia a aquellos más cercanos. Aplicaremos y evaluaremos estas propuestas en la tarea de análisis de sentimientos., Skipgram modelling is a technique for generating multi-word terms that preserves some of the sequentiality and flexibility of the language. However, in some cases the number of skipgrams generated may become excessive as the distance between words increases. Moreover, this distance is often not taken into account when evaluating the terms that are generated. In this paper we propose a technique for efficient skipgram generation and filtering, and a weighing scheme that takes into account the distance between terms, giving more importance to those closer. We will apply and evaluate these proposals in the task of sentiment analysis.

Discovering the main features of virality patterns in Twitter is the focus of this research. Five trending topics related to the COVID-19 pandemic were selected for the study, with Spanish as the target language. To carry out the discovery of virality patterns, we applied opinion mining techniques that enable us to structure the information based on the polarity of the messages and the emotions they contain. After transforming the information from an unstructured textual representation to a structured one, data mining techniques were applied, specifically association rules mining. Message patterns with the highest virality (high shares and high likes), and at the same time the most relevant characteristics of the patterns with less impact were extracted. After an exhaustive analysis of the most relevant non-redundant rules, it can be concluded that messages with a high-negative polarity and a very high emotional charge, especially emotions that have intensified with the COVID-19 pandemic, such as fear, sadness, anger and surprise are more likely to go viral in social media. By contrast, messages with little news coverage in the media, few authors, and the absence of surprise are relevant features when it comes to seeing messages with very low dissemination in social media.

Automatic Machine Learning (Auto-ML) tools enable the automatic solution of real-world problems through machine learning techniques. These tools tend to be more time consuming than standard machine learning libraries, therefore, exploiting all the available resources to the full is a valuable feature. This paper presents a two-phase optimization system for solving classification problems. The system is designed to produce more robust classifiers by exploiting the different architectures that are generated while solving classification problems with Auto-ML tools, particularly AutoGOAL. In the first phase, the system follows a probabilistic strategy to find the best combination of algorithms and hyperparameters to generate a collection of base models according to certain diversity criteria; and in the second, it follows similar Auto-ML strategies to ensemble those models. The HAHA 2019 challenge corpus and the Adult dataset were used to evaluate the system. The experimental results show that: i) a better solution can be built by ensembling a subset of the already tested models; ii) the performance of ensemble methods depends on the collection of base models used; and, iii) ensuring diversity using the double-fault measure produces better results than the disagreement measure. The source code is available online for the research community.

El aprendizaje de máquinas ha ganado terreno utilizándose en casi todas las áreas de la vida cotidiana, ayudando a tomar decisiones en las finanzas, la medicina, el comercio y el entretenimiento. El desarrollo continuo de nuevos algoritmos y técnicas de aprendizaje automático, y la amplia gama de herramientas y conjuntos de datos disponibles han traído nuevas oportunidades y desafíos para investigadores y profesionales tanto del mundo académico como de la industria. Seleccionar la mejor estrategia posible para resolver un problema de aprendizaje automático es cada vez más difícil, en parte porque requiere largos tiempos de experimentación y profundos conocimientos técnicos. En este escenario, el campo de investigación Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) ha ganado protagonismo, proponiendo estrategias para automatizar progresivamente tareas usuales durante el desarrollo de aplicaciones de aprendizaje de máquina. Las herramientas de AutoML más comunes permiten seleccionar automáticamente dentro de un conjunto restringido de algoritmos y parámetros la mejor estrategia para cierto conjunto de datos. Sin embargo, los problemas prácticos a menudo requieren combinar y comparar algoritmos heterogéneos implementados con diferentes tecnologías subyacentes. Un ejemplo es el procesamiento del lenguaje natural, un escenario donde varía el espacio de posibles técnicas a aplicar ampliamente entre diferentes tareas, desde el preprocesamiento hasta la representación y clasificación de textos. Realizar AutoML en un escenario heterogéneo como este es complejo porque la solución necesaria podría incluir herramientas y bibliotecas no compatibles entre sí. Esto requeriría que todos los algoritmos acuerden un protocolo común que permita la salida de un algoritmo para ser compartida como entradas a cualquier otro. En esta investigación se diseña e implementa un sistema de AutoML que utiliza técnicas heterogéneas. A diferencia de los enfoques de AutoML existentes, nuestra contribución puede

La creciente cantidad de información publicada en línea presenta un reto significativo para la comunidad científica. La disponibilidad de estos recursos permite acelerar las investigaciones en múltiples ramas de la ciencia, al conectar resultados de diferentes grupos de investigadores. Sin embargo, el volumen de información producido es imposible de procesar por humanos en su totalidad, por lo que la comunidad científica desperdicia tiempo y recursos en redescubrir los mismos resultados, debido a la falta de comunicación. La aplicación de técnicas de inteligencia artificial permite construir sistemas computacionales que ayuden a los investigadores a buscar, analizar y conectar la información existente en grandes volúmenes de datos. Este proceso se denomina descubrimiento automático de conocimiento y es una rama de investigación con un creciente interés. El dominio de la salud es uno de los escenarios en los que el descubrimiento de conocimiento automático puede producir un mayor impacto en beneficio de la sociedad. La reciente pandemia de COVID-19 es un ejemplo donde la producción de artículos científicos ha superado con creces la capacidad de la comunidad científica para asimilarlos. Para mitigar este fenómeno se han publicado recursos lingüísticos que permitan construir sistemas de descubrimiento automático de conocimiento. Sin embargo, el descubrimiento de conocimiento requiere no solo de recursos lingüísticos, sino que necesita recursos computacionales e infraestructura disponibles para evaluar los resultados sistemáticamente y comparar objetivamente enfoques alternativos. Este trabajo describe un ecosistema que facilita la investigación y el desarrollo en el descubrimiento de conocimiento en el dominio biomédico, específicamente en idioma español, aunque puede ser extendido a otros dominios e idiomas. Con este fin, se desarrollan y comparten varios recursos con la comunidad investigadora, incluido un nuevo modelo de anotación semántica, cuatro corpus con más de

The framework of the present study was the destination life cycle model, a classical model that describes the development of tourist destinations. We examined mass tourism in Benidorm based on tourist accommodation supply and demand statistics over the January 2016 to October 2018 period, provided by Spain's National Institute for Statistics. The objective was to analyze the life cycle and competitiveness of Benidorm's tourism system and interpret whether the tourism product was sustainable and at what stage in the cycle Benidorm is currently in. To do this, we used Smarta software, which, based on network analysis, enables to interpret the system's virtuous cycles and analyze causality by observing relationship patterns in the system's attractors, thus complementing typical processing based on causal maps and the study of social networks. The results obtained by this application (which has been developed by our research team) show six sets of attractors that mark the trends of the tourist system. Finally, the analysis of the significant variables of these attractors has helped us to justify that the tourist system of Benidorm is in the rejuvenation phase.

Apart from the economic impact of the online gambling industry, the social, public order and health-related consequences of the industry merit analysis to inform appropriate action, regulatory or otherwise. The omnipresence of ICTs, the inability to use technologies properly, along with the growth of online gambling channels, have acted simultaneously as a catalyst for the spread of pathological and problematic gambling. In this context, social networks have become a highly effective platform to instil positive attitudes towards the products of gambling operators. This work uses the Natural Language Processing based web application “GPLSI Social Analytics” to track, in real time, the conversations generated on Twitter about the Spanish domain accounts of the main online sports gambling operators. The findings indicate that most of the messages about these operators are positive and surprise is the predominant emotion associated with them. The notion of responsible online gambling barely receives a mention in the conversations analysed. Given the role of new technologies as access facilitators and potential enhancers of addictive behaviours, it is necessary to adopt measures directed at social networks that guarantee the coexistence of the right to freedom of expression with the protection of the most vulnerable populations.

Corpora are one of the most valuable resources at present for building machine learning systems. However, building new corpora is an expensive task, which makes the automatic extension of corpora a highly attractive task to develop. Hence, finding new strategies that reduce the cost and effort involved in this task, while at the same time guaranteeing quality, remains an open and important challenge for the research community. In this paper, we present a set of ensembling strategies oriented toward entity and relation extraction tasks. The main goal is to combine several automatically annotated versions of corpora to produce a single version with improved quality. An ensembler is built by exploring a configuration space in search of the combination that maximizes the fitness of the ensembled collection according to a reference collection. The eHealth-KD 2019 challenge was chosen for the case study. The submitted systems’ outputs were ensembled, resulting in the construction of an automatically annotated collection of 8000 sentences. We show that using this collection as additional training input for a baseline algorithm has a positive impact on its performance. Additionally, the ensembling pipeline was used as a participant system in the 2020 edition of the challenge. The ensembled run achieved a slightly better performance than the individual runs.

LETO es un marco de aprendizaje de ontologías diseñado para extraer conocimiento de una variedad de fuentes. Estas fuentes pudieran ser datos estructurados y no estructurados, y de ellas se podrá descubrir, actualizar continuamente, enriquecer e integrar información relevante como parte de un único conocimiento semántico. En la actual versión 1.0 se limita a la extracción de conocimiento desde datos no estructurados, i.e. textos en lenguaje natural, siguiendo el modelo semántico publicado en [EGM2018]. Entre sus funcionalidades está la extracción de entidades y relaciones semánticas desde fuentes textuales; la transformación de esta información en elementos interrelacionados mediante técnicas de agrupamientos; y finalmente generación de ontologías representativas del contenido procesado. Se proporciona un punto de acceso API, y una herramienta visual para la manipulación de procesos y visualización de las ontologías obtenidas [EMA2019]., LETO is an ontology learning framework designed to extract knowledge from a variety of sources. These sources may be structured and/or unstructured data, and from them we can discover, continuously update, enrich and integrate relevant information as part of a single semantic knowledge resource. The current 1.0 version is limited to the extraction of knowledge from unstructured data, i.e. natural language texts, following the semantic model published in [EGM2018]. Among this version’s functionalities are the extraction of entities and semantic relations from textual sources; the transformation of such information into linked elements through clustering techniques; and finally, the generation of representative ontologies of the processed content. An API access point as well as a visual tool for the manipulation of processes and visualization of the obtained ontologies is provided [EMA2019].

This paper introduces Hierarchical Machine Learning Optimisation (HML-Opt), an AutoML framework that is based on probabilistic grammatical evolution. HML-Opt has been designed to provide a flexible framework where a researcher can define the space of possible pipelines to solve a specific machine learning problem, which can range from high-level decisions about representation and features to low-level hyper-parameter values. The evaluation of HML-Opt is presented via two different case studies, both of which demonstrate that it is competitive with existing AutoML tools on a variety of benchmarks. Furthermore, HML-Opt can be applied to novel problems, such as knowledge extraction from natural language text, whereas other techniques are insufficiently flexible to capture the complexity of these scenarios. The source code for HML-Opt is available online for the research community.

El aprendizaje de máquinas ha ganado terreno utilizándose en casi todas las áreas de la vida cotidiana, ayudando a tomar decisiones en las finanzas, la medicina, el comercio y el entretenimiento. El desarrollo continuo de nuevos algoritmos y técnicas de aprendizaje automático, y la amplia gama de herramientas y conjuntos de datos disponibles han traído nuevas oportunidades y desafíos para investigadores y profesionales tanto del mundo académico como de la industria. Seleccionar la mejor estrategia posible para resolver un problema de aprendizaje automático es cada vez más difícil, en parte porque requiere largos tiempos de experimentación y profundos conocimientos técnicos. En este escenario, el campo de investigación Automated Machine Learning (AutoML) ha ganado protagonismo, proponiendo estrategias para automatizar progresivamente tareas usuales durante el desarrollo de aplicaciones de aprendizaje de máquina. Las herramientas de AutoML más comunes permiten seleccionar automáticamente dentro de un conjunto restringido de algoritmos y parámetros la mejor estrategia para cierto conjunto de datos. Sin embargo, los problemas prácticos a menudo requieren combinar y comparar algoritmos heterogéneos implementados con diferentes tecnologías subyacentes. Un ejemplo es el procesamiento del lenguaje natural, un escenario donde varía el espacio de posibles técnicas a aplicar ampliamente entre diferentes tareas, desde el preprocesamiento hasta la representación y clasificación de textos. Realizar AutoML en un escenario heterogéneo como este es complejo porque la solución necesaria podría incluir herramientas y bibliotecas no compatibles entre sí. Esto requeriría que todos los algoritmos acuerden un protocolo común que permita la salida de un algoritmo para ser compartida como entradas a cualquier otro. En esta investigación se diseña e implementa un sistema de AutoML que utiliza técnicas heterogéneas. A diferencia de los enfoques de AutoML existentes, nuestra contribución puede

La creciente cantidad de información publicada en línea presenta un reto significativo para la comunidad científica. La disponibilidad de estos recursos permite acelerar las investigaciones en múltiples ramas de la ciencia, al conectar resultados de diferentes grupos de investigadores. Sin embargo, el volumen de información producido es imposible de procesar por humanos en su totalidad, por lo que la comunidad científica desperdicia tiempo y recursos en redescubrir los mismos resultados, debido a la falta de comunicación. La aplicación de técnicas de inteligencia artificial permite construir sistemas computacionales que ayuden a los investigadores a buscar, analizar y conectar la información existente en grandes volúmenes de datos. Este proceso se denomina descubrimiento automático de conocimiento y es una rama de investigación con un creciente interés. El dominio de la salud es uno de los escenarios en los que el descubrimiento de conocimiento automático puede producir un mayor impacto en beneficio de la sociedad. La reciente pandemia de COVID-19 es un ejemplo donde la producción de artículos científicos ha superado con creces la capacidad de la comunidad científica para asimilarlos. Para mitigar este fenómeno se han publicado recursos lingüísticos que permitan construir sistemas de descubrimiento automático de conocimiento. Sin embargo, el descubrimiento de conocimiento requiere no solo de recursos lingüísticos, sino que necesita recursos computacionales e infraestructura disponibles para evaluar los resultados sistemáticamente y comparar objetivamente enfoques alternativos. Este trabajo describe un ecosistema que facilita la investigación y el desarrollo en el descubrimiento de conocimiento en el dominio biomédico, específicamente en idioma español, aunque puede ser extendido a otros dominios e idiomas. Con este fin, se desarrollan y comparten varios recursos con la comunidad investigadora, incluido un nuevo modelo de anotación semántica, cuatro corpus con más de

The framework of the present study was the destination life cycle model, a classical model that describes the development of tourist destinations. We examined mass tourism in Benidorm based on tourist accommodation supply and demand statistics over the January 2016 to October 2018 period, provided by Spain's National Institute for Statistics. The objective was to analyze the life cycle and competitiveness of Benidorm's tourism system and interpret whether the tourism product was sustainable and at what stage in the cycle Benidorm is currently in. To do this, we used Smarta software, which, based on network analysis, enables to interpret the system's virtuous cycles and analyze causality by observing relationship patterns in the system's attractors, thus complementing typical processing based on causal maps and the study of social networks. The results obtained by this application (which has been developed by our research team) show six sets of attractors that mark the trends of the tourist system. Finally, the analysis of the significant variables of these attractors has helped us to justify that the tourist system of Benidorm is in the rejuvenation phase.

Apart from the economic impact of the online gambling industry, the social, public order and health-related consequences of the industry merit analysis to inform appropriate action, regulatory or otherwise. The omnipresence of ICTs, the inability to use technologies properly, along with the growth of online gambling channels, have acted simultaneously as a catalyst for the spread of pathological and problematic gambling. In this context, social networks have become a highly effective platform to instil positive attitudes towards the products of gambling operators. This work uses the Natural Language Processing based web application “GPLSI Social Analytics” to track, in real time, the conversations generated on Twitter about the Spanish domain accounts of the main online sports gambling operators. The findings indicate that most of the messages about these operators are positive and surprise is the predominant emotion associated with them. The notion of responsible online gambling barely receives a mention in the conversations analysed. Given the role of new technologies as access facilitators and potential enhancers of addictive behaviours, it is necessary to adopt measures directed at social networks that guarantee the coexistence of the right to freedom of expression with the protection of the most vulnerable populations.

Corpora are one of the most valuable resources at present for building machine learning systems. However, building new corpora is an expensive task, which makes the automatic extension of corpora a highly attractive task to develop. Hence, finding new strategies that reduce the cost and effort involved in this task, while at the same time guaranteeing quality, remains an open and important challenge for the research community. In this paper, we present a set of ensembling strategies oriented toward entity and relation extraction tasks. The main goal is to combine several automatically annotated versions of corpora to produce a single version with improved quality. An ensembler is built by exploring a configuration space in search of the combination that maximizes the fitness of the ensembled collection according to a reference collection. The eHealth-KD 2019 challenge was chosen for the case study. The submitted systems’ outputs were ensembled, resulting in the construction of an automatically annotated collection of 8000 sentences. We show that using this collection as additional training input for a baseline algorithm has a positive impact on its performance. Additionally, the ensembling pipeline was used as a participant system in the 2020 edition of the challenge. The ensembled run achieved a slightly better performance than the individual runs.

This paper introduces Hierarchical Machine Learning Optimisation (HML-Opt), an AutoML framework that is based on probabilistic grammatical evolution. HML-Opt has been designed to provide a flexible framework where a researcher can define the space of possible pipelines to solve a specific machine learning problem, which can range from high-level decisions about representation and features to low-level hyper-parameter values. The evaluation of HML-Opt is presented via two different case studies, both of which demonstrate that it is competitive with existing AutoML tools on a variety of benchmarks. Furthermore, HML-Opt can be applied to novel problems, such as knowledge extraction from natural language text, whereas other techniques are insufficiently flexible to capture the complexity of these scenarios. The source code for HML-Opt is available online for the research community.

Esta tesis discute la importancia de la evaluación educativa y propone una metodología para la captura de opiniones de manera no tradicional, planteando un marco de trabajo que permita obtener de manera más rápida el sentir del estudiante hacia la oferta académica que le brinda la institución educativa, bajo un conjunto más amplio de matices emocionales que las encuestas tradicionales no arrojan. Esta metodología para la obtención de datos cuantitativos y cualitativos está basada en la aplicación de técnicas de Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural (PLN), proponiendo la captura y recogida de datos utilizando técnicas automáticas para el análisis para evaluar el desempeño de los datos obtenidos, que alimentaron un sistema de análisis de sentimientos basado en aprendizaje automático. Como se ha mencionado, la metodología propuesta permite adquirir un corpus formado por opiniones de estudiantes en el dominio específico de la educación, para de esta manera entrenar un sistema de análisis de sentimientos para la captura precisa de opiniones sobre diferentes aspectos relacionados con el ámbito educativo. Este tipo de propuesta metodológica resulta especialmente relevante en los países de Latinoamérica, donde la evaluación del profesorado es un proceso reciente que necesita de un tiempo de prueba para determinar su alcance. Los resultados de aplicar la metodología propuesta ayudan a la toma de decisiones en la institución educativa donde se utilice, provocando una gobernanza asistida con técnicas computacionales, coherentes con la exigencia de calidad en la educación.

This paper presents AutoGOAL, a system for automatic machine learning (AutoML) that uses heterogeneous techniques. In contrast with existing AutoML approaches, our contribution can automatically build machine learning pipelines that combine techniques and algorithms from different frameworks, including shallow classifiers, natural language processing tools, and neural networks. We define the heterogeneous AutoML optimization problem as the search for the best sequence of algorithms that transforms specific input data into the desired output. This provides a novel theoretical and practical approach to AutoML. Our proposal is experimentally evaluated in diverse machine learning problems and compared with alternative approaches, showing that it is competitive with other AutoML alternatives in standard benchmarks. Furthermore, it can be applied to novel scenarios, such as several NLP tasks, where existing alternatives cannot be directly deployed. The system is freely available and includes in-built compatibility with a large number of popular machine learning frameworks, which makes our approach useful for solving practical problems with relative ease and effort.

This paper presents the preliminary results of an ongoing project that analyzes the growing body of scientific research published around the COVID-19 pandemic. In this research, a general-purpose semantic model is used to double annotate a batch of 500 sentences that were manually selected by the researchers from the CORD-19 corpus. Afterwards, a baseline text-mining pipeline is designed and evaluated via a large batch of 100,959 sentences. We present a qualitative analysis of the most interesting facts automatically extracted and highlight possible future lines of development. The preliminary results show that general-purpose semantic models are a useful tool for discovering fine-grained knowledge in large corpora of scientific documents.

The massive amount of biomedical information published online requires the development of automatic knowledge discovery technologies to effectively make use of this available content. To foster and support this, the research community creates linguistic resources, such as annotated corpora, and designs shared evaluation campaigns and academic competitive challenges. This work describes an ecosystem that facilitates research and development in knowledge discovery in the biomedical domain, specifically in Spanish language. To this end, several resources are developed and shared with the research community, including a novel semantic annotation model, an annotated corpus of 1045 sentences, and computational resources to build and evaluate automatic knowledge discovery techniques. Furthermore, a research task is defined with objective evaluation criteria, and an online evaluation environment is setup and maintained, enabling researchers interested in this task to obtain immediate feedback and compare their results with the state-of-the-art. As a case study, we analyze the results of a competitive challenge based on these resources and provide guidelines for future research. The constructed ecosystem provides an effective learning and evaluation environment to encourage research in knowledge discovery in Spanish biomedical documents.

This paper summarises the results of the third edition of the eHealth Knowledge Discovery (KD) challenge, hosted at the Iberian Language Evaluation Forum 2020. The eHealth-KD challenge proposes two computational tasks involving the identification of semantic entities and relations in natural language text, focusing on Spanish language health documents. In this edition, besides text extracted from medical sources, Wikipedia content was introduced into the corpus, and a novel transfer-learning evaluation scenario was designed that challenges participants to create systems that provide cross-domain generalisation. A total of eight teams participated with a variety of approaches including deep learning end-to-end systems as well as rule-based and knowledge-driven techniques. This paper analyses the most successful approaches and highlights the most interesting challenges for future research in this field.
