With the social media engagement on the rise, the resulting data can be used as a rich resource for analyzing and understanding different phenomena around us. A sentiment analysis system employs these data to find the attitude of social media users towards certain entities in a given document. In this paper we propose a sentiment analysis method for Persian text using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), a feedforward Artificial Neural Network, that categorize sentences into two and five classes (considering their intensity) by applying a layer of convolution over input data through different filters. We evaluated the method on three different datasets of Persian social media texts using Area under Curve metric. The final results show the advantage of using CNN over earlier attempts at developing traditional machine learning methods for Persian texts sentiment classification especially for short texts.

Special conditions of wireless sensor networks, such as energy limitation, make it essential to accelerate the convergence of algorithms in this field, especially in the distributed compressive sensing (DCS) scenarios, which have a complex reconstruction phase. This paper presents a DCS reconstruction algorithm that provides a higher convergence rate. The proposed algorithm is a distributed primal-dual algorithm in a bidirectional incremental cooperation mode where the parameters change with time. The parameters are changed systematically in the convex optimization problems in which the constraint and cooperation functions are strongly convex. The proposed method is supported by simulations, which show the higher performance of the proposed algorithm in terms of convergence rate, even in stricter conditions such as the small number of measurements or the lower degree of sparsity.
