How do US Politicians Advertise Climate Change on Meta Platforms?

In this study we collect approximately ~600,000 Meta ads from 520 current congress members and analyze ~19,000 climate change related ads to better understand the socio-demographic traits and temporal dynamics patterns in terms of spending and impressions. We find that Democrats are the only ones really advertising climate change, however, Republicans have better ad performance in terms of impressions per dollar spent. It is only 10% of the politicians that drive the debate of climate change.

Visualizing my Facebook Friends Network

In this work I visualized my Facebook Friends Network. I scraped all my facebook friends and their mutual friends to create a network visualization out of it. Super interesting to see how the "communities" of friends accurately represent the chapters of my life, including school, university, studying abroad etc.

According to the World Health Organization (WHO) stroke is the 2nd leading cause of death globally, responsible for approximately 11% of total deaths. We used a dataset containing various input parameters such as input parameters gender, age, various diseases, and smoking status, to predict whether a patient is likely to get a stroke.
