Rumor Containment in Hypergraph Representation of Social Networks
Existing solutions for rumor containment typically model social networks as regular graphs, focusing solely on dyadic relationships between pairs of individuals. However, these solutions overlook the crowd influence, which arises from higher order relationships involving multiple individuals. This crowd influence is a distinct concept that cannot be substituted by the cumulative effect of individual influences through dyadic relationships. Theref…

Enhanced Group Influence Maximization in Social Networks Using Deep Reinforcement Learning
In contemporary society, groups are pivotal in shaping decisions and actions. The consensus of a majority of members on specific topics often guides the collective decision-making in groups. Group influence maximization (GIM) aims to select $k$ seed users in a network to maximize the number of eventually activated groups. A group is said to be activated if $\beta$ percent of users in this group are activated. This study delves into the strategic …

Introduction: The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), supports a third of all people receiving HIV care globally. CDC works with local partners to improve methods to find, treat, and prevent HIV and tuberculosis. However, a shortage of trained medical professionals has impeded efforts to control the HIV epidemic in Sub-Saharan Africa and Asia. The Projec…
Learning to Detain Asylum Seekers and the Growth of Mass Immigration Detention in the United States
Drawing upon an analysis of congressional records and media coverage from 1981 to 1996, this article examines the growth of mass immigration detention. It traces an important shift during this period: while detention began as an ad hoc executive initiative that was received with skepticism by the legislature, Congress was ultimately responsible for entrenching the system over objections from the agency. As we reveal, a critical component of this …
Operational research within a Global Fund supported tuberculosis project in India
BACKGROUND: The Global Fund encourages operational research (OR) in all its grants; however very few reports describe this aspect. In India, Project Axshya was supported by a Global Fund grant to improve the reach and visibility of the government Tuberculosis (TB) services among marginalised and vulnerable communities. OR was incorporated to build research capacity of professionals working with the national TB programme and to generate evidence t…

Preventing Infectious Pulmonary Tuberculosis Among Foreign-Born Residents of the United States
Objectives. We described risk factors associated with infectious tuberculosis (TB) and missed TB-prevention opportunities in foreign-born US residents, who account for almost two thirds of the nation’s TB patients. Methods. In a cross-sectional study at 20 US sites of foreign-born persons diagnosed with TB in 2005 through 2006, we collected results of sputum smear microscopy for acid-fast bacilli (a marker for infectiousness) and data on visa sta…
