Proceedings of the LREC 2020 workshop on Resources and Techniques for User and Author Profiling in Abusive Language (ResT-UP 2020)
This volume documents the Proceedings of the 1st Workshop on Resources and Techniques for User and Author Profiling in Abusive Language (ResT-UP), held online on 12 May 2020 as part of the LREC 2020 conference (International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation).
The workshop aimed at bringing together researchers and scholars working on author profiling and automatic detection of abusive language on the Web, e.g., cyberbullying or hate speech, with a twofold objective: improving the existing LRs, e.g., datasets, corpora, lexicons, and sharing ideas on stylometry techniques and features needed for profile information extraction and classification. ResT-UP targeted Profiling scholars and research groups, experts in Statistic and Stylistic Analysis of texts as well as computational linguists who investigate author profile and personality both in short texts (social media posts, blog texts and email) and in long texts (such as pamphlets, (fake) news and political documents). ReST-UP represented an opportunity to share profiling experiments with the scientific community and to show automatic detection techniques of abusive language on the Web. Despite the cancellation of LREC 2020 due to the COVID-19 international emergency, ResT-UP was organized online on Microsoft Teams on May 12th 2020 and the programme included three oral presentations and featured an invited talk by Paolo Rosso. ResT-UP was attended by about fifty representatives of academic and industrial organisations
Quel che resta del mito. La traccia di Euripide nell'Alcesti di Samuele di Alberto Savinio
Analysis of the drama Alcesti di Samuele by Alberto Savinio, staged in 1950 at the Piccolo Teatro in Milan, under the direction of Giorgio Strehel. It is the declination of the myth of Alcestis according to the exi¬stential pessimism of the author, who made the reflection on death one of the landmarks of his theater. The genesis of the drama, according the author himself, is to be found in a true story, happened in Vienna at the time of the Nuremberg racial laws: to an important music publisher was imposed the choice between work and divorce from his Judish wife, and the latter, in order to prevent him from taking such a painful decision, killed herself. The play is set in Monaco, where Savinio lived, and Teresa-Alcestis dies by drowning in the river Isar. In the first part of the drama Savinio is concerned to emphasize the correspondences between myth and history (Teresa/Alcesti, Admeto/Paul, Eracle/ the US President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, etc.), but, with the progress of the dramatic action, the distances from Euripides increase more and more, until the final reversal: Teresa returns to life just to bring Paul with her in death. The essay analyzes and comments the numerous echoes and allusions to Euripides (and their variations) that Savinio introduces in his rewriting

Perception of thromboembolism risk. differences between the departments of internal medicine and emergency medicine
The latest developments in emergency medicine (EM) have introduced new typologies of patients that have not been taken into account in previous studies of venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk. The aim of the current study was to evaluate by comparing the main international risk scores whether different perceptions of VTE risk exist in internal medicine (IM) departments and in EM departments. This cross-sectional observational study involved 23 IM and 10 EM departments of 21 different hospitals. The patient data were collected by physicians who were blinded to the purpose of the study. The data were analyzed using the main international risk scores. We analyzed 742 patients, 222 (30%) hospitalized in EM departments and the remaining 520 (70%) in IM departments. We found that fewer patients at risk for VTE were treated with low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) in EM departments than in IM departments. Moreover, there was significant statistical difference in the use of LMWH between IM and EM departments when the Padua score and immobilization criteria were used to assess the risk. The infrequent use of LMWH in EM patients may have several causes. For example, in EM departments, treatment of acute illness often takes higher priority than VTE risk evaluation. Moreover, immobilization criteria cannot be evaluated for all EM patients because of the intrinsic time requirements. For the aforementioned reasons, we believe that a different VTE risk score is required that takes into account the peculiarities of EM, and establishing such a score should be the object of future study

On the use of mechanics-informed models to structural engineering systems: Application of graph neural networks for structural analysis
This paper investigates the application of mechanics-informed artificial intelligence to civil structural systems. Structural analysis is a traditional practice that involves engineers to solve different real-life problems. Several approaches can be used for this task, going from "by hand" computation to the recent advanced finite element method. However, when structures become complex, the success of the analysis can be complicated, often requiring high computational efforts and time. To tackle this challenge, traditional high-demanding methods can be supported by new technologies, such as machine-learning tools. This new paradigm aims to solve structural problems by defining the desired output after directly elaborating input data. One of the current limitations is that often the physics behind the problem is ignored. To solve this issue, resolution models can combine empirical data and available mechanics prior knowledge to improve the predictive performance involving physical mechanisms. In this paper, a method to develop a Mechanics-Informed Surrogate Model (MISM) on structural systems is proposed, for which input structured data are used to enrich the informative content of mechanics systems. Then, Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) are explored, as a method capable of properly rep-resenting and embedding knowledge about a structural system, such as truss structures. The main advantage of the proposed approach is to provide an alternative way to the usual black-box machine-learning-based models. In fact, in the proposed MISM, the mechanics of the structural system plays the key role in the surrogate model definition, in order to obtain physically based outputs for the investigated problem. For the case at hand, MISMs are developed and employed to learn the deformations map of the system, starting from the knowledge of the structural features. The proposed approach is applied to bi-dimensional and tri-dimensional truss structures and the results indicate that the proposed solution performs better than standard surrogate models
