Detecting Framing Changes in Topical News

IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTATIONAL SOCIAL SYSTEMS, 8(3), 780–791.

By: K. Sheshadri n, C. Shivade* & M. Singh n

author keywords: Obesity; Market research; Benchmark testing; Media; Current measurement; Standards; Sociology; Framing; news media
TL;DR: This article systematizes the discovery of framing changes through a fully unsupervised computational method that seeks to isolate framing change trends over several years, and highlights the predictive utility of framing change detection, by identifying two domains in which framing changes foreshadowed substantial legislative activity, or preceded judicial interest.

Staffing many-server queues with autoregressive inputs

NAVAL RESEARCH LOGISTICS, 68(3), 312–326.

By: X. Sun* & Y. Liu n

author keywords: autocorrelation; heavy‐ traffic approximations; many‐ server queues; mean‐ reverting process; non‐ Poisson arrivals; optimal staffing; parameter uncertainty; queues with customer abandonment
TL;DR: A multiserver queueing system where customer arrivals follow a doubly stochastic Poisson point process whose intensities are driven by a Cox–Ingersoll–Ross (CIR) process is studied, finding that, in order to achieve the designated service level, such an autoregressive feature in the arrival model translates into notable adjustment in the staffing formula, and such an adjustment can be fully characterized by the parameters of the new arrival model.
