Abstract:
HPV vaccination refusal is a serious public health issue. Opinions on Twitter have are influential to potential consumers on vaccination behaviours. Public opinions toward HPV vaccination were extracted from Twitter by leveraging machine learning models. We used semiparametric nonlinear regression models to study the association between people's public opinions on HPV vaccination at Twitter and the number of followers. Trend patterns of opinions from Twitter users groups with different number of followers were identified and compared.

Nonlinear Pharmacokinetics: Causes of Nonlinearity
Nonlinear drug absorption can occur when the process is rate-limited by solubility, carrier-mediated transport systems, or saturation of the presystemic gut wall or hepatic metabolism. For instance, high doses of riboflavin...
Multiple Regression
Farmers can use multiple regression to determine the crop yield based on more than one factor, such as water availability, fertilizer, soil properties, etc. Here, the crop yield is the response or dependent variable as it depends on the other independent variables. The analysis requires the construction of a scatter plot...

Regression Analysis
In regression analysis, a regression equation is determined based on the line of best fit– a line that best fits the data points plotted in a graph. This line is also called the regression line. The algebraic equation for the regression line is called the regression equation. It is represented as:
