In this paper, we try to answer this question through an analysis of various phases of migration, comparing traditional and novel data sources and models at each phase. We concentrate on three phases of migration, at each phase describing the state of the art and recent developments and ideas. The first phase includes the journey, and we study migration flows and stocks, providing examples where big data can have an impact. The second phase discusses the stay, i.e. migrant integration in the destination country. We explore various data sets and models that can be used to quantify and understand migrant integration, with the final aim of providing the basis for the construction of a novel multi-level integration index. The last phase is related to the effects of migration on the source countries and the return of migrants.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pollacci, Laura</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riccardo Guidotti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giulio Rossetti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fosca Giannotti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dino Pedreschi</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Fractal Dimension of Music: Geography, Popularity and Sentiment Analysis</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">International Conference on Smart Objects and Technologies for Social Good</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-76111-4_19</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Springer</style></publisher><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nowadays there is a growing standardization of musical contents.

Using a cross-service multi-level dataset we investigate the actual Italian music scene. The investigation highlights the musical Italian superdiversity both individually analyzing the geographical and lexical dimensions and combining them. Using different kinds of features over the geographical dimension leads to two similar, comparable and coherent results, confirming the strong and essential correlation between melodies and lyrics. The profiles identified are markedly distinct one from another with respect to sentiment, lexicon, and melodic features. Through a novel application of a sentiment spreading algorithm and songs’ melodic features, we are able to highlight discriminant characteristics that violate the standard regional political boundaries, reconfiguring them following the actual musical communicative practices.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>47</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pollacci, Laura</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riccardo Guidotti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giulio Rossetti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fosca Giannotti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dino Pedreschi</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Fractal Dimension of Music: Geography, Popularity and Sentiment Analysis</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">International Conference on Smart Objects and Technologies for Social Good</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year></dates><urls><web-urls><url><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-76111-4_19</style></url></web-urls></urls><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Springer, Cham</style></publisher><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nowadays there is a growing standardization of musical contents.

This because, typically, the text to be analysed consists of very short messages lacking in structure and semantic context. At the same time, the amount of text produced by online platforms is enormous. So, one needs simple, fast and effective methods in order to be able to efficiently study sentiment in these data. Lexicon-based methods, which use a predefined dictionary of terms tagged with sentiment valences to evaluate sentiment in longer sentences, can be a valid approach. Here we present a method based on epidemic spreading to automatically extend the dictionary used in lexicon-based sentiment analysis, starting from a reduced dictionary and large amounts of Twitter data. The resulting dictionary is shown to contain valences that correlate well with human-annotated sentiment, and to produce tweet sentiment classifications comparable to the original dictionary, with the advantage of being able to tag more tweets than the original. The method is easily extensible to various languages and applicable to large amounts of data.</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pollacci, Laura</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riccardo Guidotti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giulio Rossetti</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">“Are we playing like Music-Stars?” Placing Emerging Artists on the Italian Music Scene</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9th International Workshop on Machine Learning and Music, ECML-PKDD</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2016</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">09/2016</style></date></pub-dates></dates><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Riva del Garda</style></pub-location><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The Italian emerging bands chase success on the footprint of popular artists by playing rhythmic danceable and happy songs.

By analyzing Spotify data we investigated the peculiarity of regional mu- sic and we placed emerging bands within the musical movements defined by already successful artists.
