Drawing on a corpus of nearly 15, 000 messages authored by individuals with MS, we examine three distinct types of forum posts: initial messages that open a thread, self-replies written by the same user, and responses by other participants. Through a mixed-methods approach that combines linguistic profiling, readability metrics, and topic modeling, we identify structural, grammatical, and stylistic features that charac-terize different stages of online interaction. Our findings reveal a functional shift from autobiographical narration in initial posts to more dialogic, supportive, and emotionally expressive language in replies. We identify three recurring coping strate-gies emerging from forum discourse: (1) problem-focused coping, through detailed medical narratives and treatment decisions; (2) symptom-focused coping, involving bodily awareness and self-monitoring; and (3) emotion-focused coping, based on gratitude, reassurance, and social bonding. By highlighting the expressive and rela-tional functions of language in peer communication, this study contributes to the understanding of digital coping mechanisms in chronic illness contexts. It also offers insights for the development of linguistically informed tools capable of detecting emotional distress, emerging needs, or social disengagement.

For these reasons the idea of a robotic companion with the task of supporting and monitoring divers during their activities and operations has been proposed. However, the idea of a platoon of robots at the diver's disposal has never been fully addressed in these proposals due to the high cost of implementation and the usability, weight and bulk of the robots. Nevertheless, recent advancements in swarm robotics, materials engineering, deep learning, and the decreasing cost of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), have rendered this concept increasingly viable.

We define 'polarization' here as a uniform change of the opinion of the whole group in the same direction, whereas 'bi-polarization' indicates a split of two subgroups towards opposite directions. For our purposes, we have expanded the model of the Argument Communication Theory of Bi-polarization. This is an argument-based multi-agent model of opinion dynamics inspired by Persuasive Argument Theory. The original model accounts for polarization as an outcome of pure informational influence and reproduces bipolarization effects by postulating an additional mechanism of homophilous selection of communication partners. The expanded model adds two dimensions: i. e., argument strength and more sophisticated protocols of informational influence (argument communication and opinion update). Adding the first dimension, allows us to investigate whether and how the presence of stronger or weaker arguments in a discussion influences polarization and bi-polarization dynamics, as suggested by the original framework of Persuasive Arguments Theory. The second feature allows us to test whether other mechanisms related to confirmation bias and epistemic vigilance can act as a driving force of bi-polarization. For the first issue, our simulations showed that argument strength has a measurable effect. For the second, our results would indicate that, in absence of homophily, only very strong types of informational bias can lead to bi-polarization}, KEYWORDS = {Argumentation, Argument Communication Theory, Polarization, Bi-Polarization, Epistemic Vigilance, Opinion dynamics}, PAGES = {25}, URL = {https://www.jasss.org/26/2/5.html}, VOLUME = {26 (2)}, DOI = {10.18564/jasss.5062}, ISSN = {1460-7425}, JOURNAL = {JASSS}, } @INPROCEEDINGS{CHIARELLA_2023_INPROCEEDINGS_CCF_433913, AUTHOR = {Chiarella, D. and Cutugno, P. and Ferretti, M.}, TITLE = {A linguistic approach of sound characterisation and polarization: first steps}, YEAR = {2023}, ABSTRACT = {The activities of the "TRIPLO: TRasporti e collegamenti Innovativi e sostenibili tra Porti e piattaforme LOgistiche" project, funded with funds from the Interregional Operational Programme Italy-France Maritime 2014-2020, have as their particular goal to increase the sustainability of commercial ports and associated logistic platforms, helping to lessen noise pollution [1][2].

Only technical investigations, which cannot ensure a phenomena's universality in terms of perception, can objectively describe a phenomenon in environmental surveys [3]; A sound can be viewed as both a physical reality that can be measured using objective criteria and a sound perception phenomenon that is of a subjective character and related to the subject's psycho-physical-emotional state.

Driven by these motivations, we created questionnaires concerning the perception of sounds, the structure and first results of which can be consulted in [4] [5] [6].

This holds especially for missions in cooperation with divers who are-despite the significant advancements of marine robotics in recent years-still essential for many underwater operations. Possible application cases of underwater human-robot collaboration include marine science, archeology, oil-and gas production (OGP), handling of unexploded ordnance (UXO), e. g., from WWII ammunition dumped in the seas, or inspection and maintenance of marine infrastructure like pipelines, harbors, or renewable energy installations-to name just a few examples. We present a fully integrated approach to Underwater Human Robot Interaction (U-HRI) in form of a front-end for gesture recognition combined with a back-end with a full language interpreter. The gesture-based language is derived from the existing standard gestures for communication between human divers. It enables a diver to issue single commands as well as complex mission specifications to an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) as demonstrated in several field trials. The gesture recognition is an essential component of the overall approach. It requires high reliability under the challenging conditions of the underwater domain. There is especially a high amount of variation in visual data due to various effects in the underwater image formation. We hence investigate in this article different Machine Learning (ML) methods for robust diver gesture recognition. This includes a classical ML approach and four state-of-the-art Deep Learning (DL) methods.

To address this, an investigation campaign was conducted to identify the Italian adjectives that best describe the noise sources associated with port and retro-port infrastructures. 402 Italian university students responded to a listening experiment. They were asked to associate adjectives with audios. The association of these adjectives with the sources of sound formed the basis for sentiment analysis. Psychoacoustic parameters were calculated following measurements and processed for each of the sounds administered to look for possible correlations between the different perceptual aspects. The first results show how industrial or traffic sounds are as expected associated with negative sentiment whereas natural sounds evoke positive emotions.

The model of the Argument Communication Theory of Bi-polarization (ACTB), developed by Maes and Flache (2013), shows that simple circulation of arguments among individuals in a group can determine strong differentiation of opinions (bi-polarization effects) even with a small degree of homophily. The ACTB model and similar ones have nevertheless one limitation: given a topic of discussion, only direct pro and con arguments for it are considered. This does not allow to account for the topology of a more complex debate, where arguments may also interact indirectly with the topic at stake. This gap can be filled by using Quantitative Bipolar Argument Frameworks (QBAF). More specifically, by applying measures of argument strength for QBAFs in order to calculate the agents' opinion. In the present paper we generalize the ACTB measure of opinion strength to acyclic bipolar graphs and compare it with other measures from the literature. We then present a revised version of the ACTB model, where the agents' knowledge bases are structured as subgraphs of an underlying global knowledge base (described as a QBAF). We first test that the predictions of the ACTB model are confirmed when the underlying QBAF contains only direct pro and con arguments for a topic. We then explore more complex topologies of debate with two additional batches of simulations.

Autonomous Marine Vehicles (AMVs) are consolidates technological tools commonly employed for different tasks such as exploration, sampling and intervention. With the final aim of autonomous shipping, the capabilities of AMVs have to be migrated and adapted towards the reliable and safe control of commercial-like unmanned vessel, that are taking place thanks to a number of technological research projects. The employment of new concept hulls and thrust configurations, as for instance Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull (SWATH) combined with Azimuthal propulsion (common propeller-based thruster with the capability of 360o rotation around the vertical axis), requires robust guidance techniques to provide precise and reliable motion control during avigation. The paper proposes a dual-loop guidance \& control scheme able to provide advanced navigation capabilities. In particular, the inner control loop, devoted to the actuation of the azimuthal thrusters, allows the tracking of reference course angle (namely the autopilot).

Au-tonomous Marine Vehicles (AMVs) are consolidates technological tools commonly employed for different tasks such as exploration, sampling and intervention. With the final aim of autonomous shipping, the capabilities of AMVs have to be migrated and adapted towards the reliable and safe control of commercial-like unmanned ves-sel, that are taking place thanks to a number of technological research projects. The employment of new concept hulls and thrust configurations, as for instance Small Waterplane Area Twin Hull (SWATH) combined with Az-imuthal propulsion (common propeller-based thruster with the capability of 360◦ rotation around the vertical axis), requires robust guidance techniques to provide precise and reliable motion control during navigation. The paper proposes a dual-loop guidance \& control scheme able to provide advanced navigation capabilities. In par-ticular, the inner control loop, devoted to the actuation of the azimuthal thrusters, allows the tracking of reference course angle (namely the autopilot). Such a control loop is characterized by a modified PID regulation scheme, where a novel adaptive derivative component is inserted in order to improve the convergence curve towards the required course reference.

They manoeuvre in complex 3D environments and carry cumbersome equipment, while performing their mission. The CADDY project aims to overcome such problems, by establishing an innovative paradigm, i. e. introducing in the field a robotic diver companion. This last can accompany the diver during his/her mission, being a useful companion in a twofold manner: i) helping the diver to accomplish his/her mission; and ii) monitoring the diver actions and physical state, in order to provide help (e. g. signaling problems to the surface ground station) in case of emergency. The CADDY project replaces a human buddy diver with an autonomous underwater vehicle and adds a new autonomous surface vehicle to improve monitoring, assistance, and safety of the diver's mission. The resulting system plays a threefold role similar to those that a human buddy diver should have: i) the buddy observer" that continuously monitors the diver; ii) the buddy "slave" that is the diver's "extended hand" during underwater operations performing tasks such as "do a mosaic of that area", "take a photo of that" or illuminate that"; and iii) the buddy "guide" that leads the diver through the underwater environment. In such a way to be effective once employed in such a context, the robotic buddy must exhibit cognitive behaviour through learning, interpreting, and adapting to the diver's behaviour, physical state, and actions. Moreover, in order to be "accepted" by the human divers, the robotic buddy should also interact with them in a way that result natural to the humans. For this reason, the robotic buddy has been endowed with the capability to understand diver sign language. To this regards, since this sign language is composed by few gestures and since here is the need to issue more complex commands, a completely new language, called CADDIAN, has been created, using the diver common gestures plus some more symbols. The companion robot is thus able to understand complex commands (or even entire sentences containing more than one command), validate them using the CADDIAN syntax rules and promptly responding to them by executing the requested actions. In the paper, the CADDY concept will be presented in details, and the robotic system will be described. The CADDIAN language and some hints about the related gesture recognition process will be introduced as well}, URL = {https://iris.cnr.it/handle/20.500.14243/330495}, } @INPROCEEDINGS{BIBULI_2017_INPROCEEDINGS_BBCCFORZ_330476, AUTHOR = {Bibuli, M. and Bruzzone, G. and Caccia, M. and Chiarella, D. and Ferretti, R. and Odetti, A. and Ranieri, A. and Zereik, E.}, TITLE = {Cutting-edge underwater robotics-CADDY project challenges, results and future steps}, YEAR = {2017}, ABSTRACT = {This paper describes results from the EU research project CADDY on cognitive autonomous robotics to support divers.

The CADDY project deals with the development of a companion robot devoted to support and to monitor human operations and activities during the dive. In this scenario the communication and correct reception of messages between the diver and the robot are essential for success of the dive goals. However, the underwater environment poses a set of technical constraints hardly limiting the communication possibilities. For such reasons the solution proposed is to develop a communication language based on the consolidated and standardized diver gestures, commonly employed during professional and recreational dives, thus leading to the definition of a CADDY language, called CADDIAN, and a communication protocol.

Divers generally operate in environments with harsh conditions and, at the same time, difficult to monitor; in this scenario, any sudden event can create an emergency situation that may compromise the immersion or even turns into worse consequences involving the safety of divers themselves. To cope with such situations, standard procedures suggest to dive in pairs and to follow well-defined rules to avoid the risk of accidents. However, these procedures may not be sufficient to avoid dangerous events such as failure in the breathing apparatus, burst eardrum, decompression sickness and nitrogen narcosis. FP7 CADDY project was developed to overcome these problems, with the idea to transfer robotics technology in diving: the main aim is improving the level of safety during diving. CADDY project focuses, in fact, on the development of a companion robot designed to support human operations and activities during the dive, as well as to monitor the status of the diver and in such a way to prevent harmful events. Various problems have to be confronted to provide the diver a reliable and useful supporting robotic vehicle: one of them is the development of a communication and interaction methodology that allows the diver and the robot to cooperate actively for the fulfilment of tasks required when diving. Communication and correct reception of messages between the diver and underwater robot are essential for the success of the objectives of immersion. However, the underwater environment poses a number of difficult technical constraints limiting the possibilities of communication (electro-magnetic waves strong attenuation and signal scattering and dispersion). The most reliable solution for underwater communication is acoustic technology, with two main drawbacks: high prices of devices and very low data rates. To solve these issues, the solution proposed is the development of acommunication language (called CADDIAN) based, partly, on the consolidated and standardized diver gestures that are commonly employed during professional and recreational dives}, KEYWORDS = {domain-specific languages, human robot interaction, gesture-based language, underwater communication}, PAGES = {12}, URL = {https://iris.cnr.it/handle/20.500.14243/374035}, ISBN = {9789597152347}, CONFERENCE_NAME = {IX Conferencia Científica Internacional Lingüística}, } @INPROCEEDINGS{CUTUGNO_2015_INPROCEEDINGS_CLMC_276344, AUTHOR = {Cutugno, P. and Lucentini, R. and Marconi, L. and Chiarella, D.}, TITLE = {Relaciones sin violencia: lenguaje, estereotipos y sexismo benévolo}, YEAR = {2015}, PAGES = {200-204}, URL = {https://iris.cnr.it/handle/20.500.14243/276344}, VOLUME = {I}, PUBLISHER = {Centro de Lingüística Aplicada, Ministero de Ciencia, Tecnología y Medio Ambiente (Santiago de Cuba, CUB)}, ISBN = {9789597174295}, CONFERENCE_NAME = {XIV Simposio Internacional de Comunicación Social: retos y perspectivas}, CONFERENCE_PLACE = {Santiago de Cuba}, BOOKTITLE = {Comunicación Social: retos y perspectivas Vol. I°}, EDITOR = {Miyares, L.

Las palabras casi nunca tienen un significado simple, fijo y único, sino más bien complejo, en el sentido de que a cada signo corresponden más significados, a menudo similares, a veces totalmente diferentes; por esta razón, el verdadero significado de una palabra se puede captar sólo en el contexto específico. El lenguaje de la burocracia se basa, en general, en el vocabulario de otras lenguas especiales (el lenguaje jurídico, económico, etc.); en este proyecto hemos hecho referencia al lenguaje de los formularios de los servicios demográficos que los ciudadanos de la ciudad de Génova deben completar para obtener documentos o servicios. Se pueden distinguir tres fases principales en las que se llevaron a cabo algunas actividades específicas: 1. recolección y lematización de los formularios-elección de palabras que pertenecen a algunas categorías gramaticales-verificación de la pertenencia de los lemas a los léxicos de frecuencia (vocabulario básico y vocabulario elemental); 2. realización de un cuestionario que contiene las entradas, que en parte, pertenece a los léxicos y, que en parte, no pertenecen a los léxicos-distribución del cuestionario a 720 personas de diferentes nacionalidades-análisis lingüístico y estadístico sobre los datos del cuestionario; 3. diseño e implementación del glosario. Los idiomas en los que el glosario se ha traducido son: albanés, árabe, chino, español, ucraniano. El glosario fué desarrollado por el Instituto Lingüística Computacional-Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones, Unidad de Génova y contiene 423 entradas. Las palabras o conjuntos de palabras se proporcionan con una breve explicación relativa a la utilización de los formularios; la información de cada volumen se ofrece en italiano y es seguida por la traducción en uno de los idiomas mencionados. Con el fin de facilitar la recuperación de las frases se escogió estructurar un índice que contiene, para cada voz del glosario, la referencia a la página en la que se puede encontrar su traducción.

In this vein, this Chapter discusses the analysis, development and deployment of statistical detection techniques aimed at the detection of Internet worms. For what concerns i), they introduce a tool called Log Mail Analyzer (LMA), which allows to overcome the complexity of inspecting multiple logs created from a heterogeneous population of mail servers. In the perspective of ii) they briefly discuss an alternative solution, based on ad-hoc network probes, to be properly placed to collect traffic and then reconstruct the e-mail flow to be monitored.

Per estensione tutti i dispositivi che utilizzano questa modalità di comunicazione vengono detti wireless. La comunicazione wireless può permettere di portare un servizio dove una comunicazione cablata risulterebbe impossibile da implementare, sia per quanto riguarda la fattibilità tecnica, sia per quanto riguarda i costi oppure può risultare molto utile nel caso la dinamicità del numero di utenti che utilizzano una rete sia molto alta e l'infrastruttura hardware sia sottodimensionata rispetto al numero degli utenti (i. e. le prese ethernet siano esigue rispetto al numero di computer da cablare). Uno dei casi più comuni che rientra nell'estrema dinamicità sono i giorni in cui viene ospitato in una struttura un evento (i. e. una conferenza) che porta con sé diversi visitatori che necessitano di una connessione ad Internet: in questo caso una soluzione ottima sia per trade-off di tempo di fattibilità sia per facilità d'uso per gli utenti è la creazione di una LAN wireless (WLAN). Per queste motivazioni, nell'ambito della ricerca applicata per l'innovazione del networking e della sicurezza dell'Unità Operativa Staccata di Genova dell'Istituto di Linguistica Computazionale, è stata introdotta all'interno della rete cablata preesistente una rete wireless.

Inoltre, il crescente volume di e-mail non richieste, classificabili prevalentemente come spamming e phishing, costituisce un' evidente minaccia per la sicurezza dei dati personali e per la produttività sia dei singoli che delle realtà produttive. Per questi motivi, un sistema di sicurezza a livello di gateway, in grado di garantire una efficace protezione contro malware (virus e worm) ed e-mail indesiderate (spamming e phishing), è un elemento indispensabile negli attuali ambienti di rete collegati a Internet. In questo scenario il gruppo Servizio Infrastrutture Reti (SIR) del C. N. R, Area della Ricerca di Genova (ARiGe), con l'intento di fornire una protezione completa del traffico di posta elettronica, ha effettuato una valutazione delle principali classi tecnologiche di prodotti mail-gateway attualmente disponibili: appliance, software commerciale e opensource. L'esame comparato costi/benefici di alcuni tra i più noti di questi strumenti, ha permesso di individuare nel mail-gateway opensource ESVA (E-mail Scanning and Security Virtual Appliance), la soluzione più appropriata. L'inserimento di ESVA in ARiGe è avvenuto in due fasi. Alla versione standard, basata su un approccio a macchina virtuale, installata inizialmente, ha fatto seguito, con l'obbiettivo di aumentarne le prestazioni, lo studio e la realizzazione di una sua versione de-virtualizzata (ESDA). ESDA ha difatti permesso di ottenere un ulteriore miglioramento a livello di performance (e. g. riduzione del carico dei server), dei servizi di posta elettronica supportati, che affianca la già ottima risposta in termini di fruibilità fornita agli utenti (e. g. diminuita quantità di spam e virus, di e-mail non giunte a destinazione) dalla versione virtualizzata}, URL = {https://iris.cnr.it/handle/20.500.14243/190692}, } @MISC{AIELLO_2007_MISC_APC_450, AUTHOR = {Aiello, M. and Papaleo, G. and Chiarella, D.}, TITLE = {LMA-Log Mail Analyzer}, YEAR = {2007}, ABSTRACT = {Network and system administrator should monitor log files for maintaining control over services he/she offers to users.

All above problems are found when dealing with mail servers: we analyzed postfix and sendmail log file and created a tool, log mail analyzer aka LMA, for comprehensive analysis. LMA parses mail-log files, extracts information on each transaction and dumps records using BerkeleyDB or a different DataBase Management System like Mysql. Various type of query, both on BekeleyDB and sql language are supported: through these queries it is possible to adopt an anomaly based approach for intrusion detection purposes.
