Data mining locative thematic narratives: analysing twitter and POI data to extract precise spatial themes
This thesis produces a novel framework for constructing thematic narratives of space. Existing research into extracting information from Twitter data is fraught with inconsistencies and a general lack of attention to metadata. This thesis conducts five experiments to delve deeply into how to extract precise location-based themes from Twitter data, with a focus on under-researched metadata fields and exploration of external APIs to enrich the location data of previously assumed ‘precisely’ geolocated tweets. The analysis is based on Twitter data from June 2016 to August 2018. A key argument is made for the analysis of third-party sources and the stratification of tweet granularity to better understand the scale of location-based narratives. These experiments form a framework that is tested in a case study, then validated and evaluated with qualitative interviews with HM Treasury. This framework is the main contribution of the thesis
Heritability and Linkage Analysis of Appendicitis Utilizing Age at Onset
Appendicitis usually afflicts the young, but there is a large tail in the distribution of onset age. The genetics of this disease are still not well understood. A heritability analysis and genome wide linkage analysis of a large twin dataset was undertaken. Treating age of onset of appendicitis as a censored survival trait revealed a heritability of 0.21, and found evidence of linkage to Chromosome 1p37.3.

Narrative extraction through the detection and characterisation of national and local events
Assessing Twitter geocoding resolution
User-defined location privacy settings on Twitter cause geolocated tweets to be placed at four different resolutions: precise, point of interest (POI), neighbourhood and city levels. The latter two levels are not described by Twitter or the API, resulting in a risk that clustered tweets are unintentionally treated as real clusters in spatial analyses. This paper outlines a framework to address these differing spatial resolutions and highlight the impact they can have on cartographic representations. As part of this framework this paper also outlines a method of discovering sources (third-party applications) that produce geolocated tweets but do not reflect genuine human activity. We found that including tweets at all spatial resolutions created an artificially inflated importance of certain locations within a city. Discovering device-level geocoded tweets was straight forward, but querying Foursquare's API was required to differentiate between neighbourhood level clusters and POIs
