Riloff, Ellen M. | Exploiting subjectivity classification to improve information extraction | Information extraction (IE) systems are prone to false hits for a variety of reasons and we observed that many of these false hits occur in sentences that contain subjective language (e.g., opinions, emotions, and sentiments). Motivated by these observations, we explore the idea of using subjecti... | Subjectivity classification; Information extraction; Subjectivity analysis; MUC-4 | 2005 |

Cashdan, Elizabeth A. | Competition between foragers and food producers on the Botletli River, Botswana | The immigration of food-producing groups into areas occupied by hunters and gatherers must have been a common occurrence in prehistory. How were the hunter-gatherers affected by this? I describe here two groups of Kalahari Basarwa ('Bushmen'), one living along the flood plain of the lower Botletli ... | Kalahari Basarwa; Bushmen; Foraging; Cattle | 1986 |

Riloff, Ellen M. | Empirical approach to conceptual case frame acquisition | Conceptual natural language processing systems usually rely on case frame instantiation to recognize events and role objects in text. But generating a good set of case frames for a domain is time-consuming, tedious, and prone to errors of omission. We have developed a corpus-based algorithm for a... | Conceptual case frame acquisition; Case frame instantiation; Corpus-based algorithm | 1998 |

Fogel, Alan Dale | Maternal speech to three-month-old infants in the United States and Japan | An American-Japanese comparison of maternal speech to 3-month-old infants is presented. Mother-infant dyads were videotaped in the laboratory, and the maternal speech was analysed by function and syntactic form. US mothers were more information-oriented than were Japanese mothers; they also used mor... | Maternal speech; Information-oriented; Affect-oriented; Prelinguistic infants; Baby talk | 1990 |

Riloff, Ellen M. | Recognizing and organizing opinions expressed in the world press | Tomorrow's question answering systems will need to have the ability to process information about beliefs, opinions, and evaluations-the perspective of an agent. Answers to many simple factual questions-even yes/no questions-are affected by the perspective of the information source. For example... | Opinions; Opinion recognition; World press; MPQA project; Multiple perspectives | 2003 |

Hawkes, Kristen | Binumarien color categories | This paper has two aims. The first is to describe an ethnographically new system of color classification, Binumarien, a non-Austronesian or Papuan language of the Eastern Central Highlands of New Guinea2. In this connection we are particularly interested in relating our data to the Berlin and Kay (1... | Binumarien; Binumariens | 1975 |

Riloff, Ellen M. | Analyses for elucidating current question answering technology | In this paper, we take a detailed look at the performance of components of an idealized question answering system on two diff erent tasks: the TREC Question Answering task and a set of reading comprehension exams. We carry out three types of analysis: inherent properties of the data, feature analys... | TREC Question Answering task | 2001-12 |

Holzner, Claudio A.; Jameson, Kenneth P.; Maloney, Thomas N.; Abebe, Berhanie; Lund, Matthew; Schaub, Kristen | Economic impact of the Mexico-Utah relationship | This study began during the Summer of 2005 and set out to examine the complexity of the globalized relation between Utah and Mexico, concentrating on broadly defined "economic linkages." It was designed to build upon earlier similar studies done in Arizona and in Texas on those states' relations wit... | Economics, Utah; Migration; Immigration; Mexico; Undocumented immigrants | 2006-03-10 |

Newman, Lex | Unmasking Descartes's case for the bete machine doctrine | Among the more notorious of Cartesian doctrines is the bete machine doctrine -- the view that brute animals lack not only reason, but any form of consciousness (having no mind or soul). Recent English commentaries have served to obscure, rather than to clarify, the historical Descartes's views, Stan... | Animals; Intelligence; Soul; Mechanical causation | 2001 |

Mitchell, Joyce A. | Fuzzy measures on the Gene Ontology for gene product similarity | One of the most important objects in bioinformatics is a gene product (protein or RNA). For many gene products, functional information is summarized in a set of Gene Ontology (GO) annotations. For these genes, it is reasonable to include similarity measures based on the terms found in the GO or othe... | | 2006-01-01 |

Fogel, Alan Dale | Developing through relationships origins of communication, self, and culture | I began to consider the study of relationships as an intellectual vocation in 1970, the result of two years of college teaching that was part of my work as a United States Peace Corps volunteer in Bogota, Colombia. After another year I began my doctoral training in the Department of Education at th... | | 1993 |

Mallon, Ronald | Innateness as closed process invariance | Although we are enthusiastic about a Darwinian approach to culture, we argue that the overview presented in the target article does not sufficiently emphasize the crucial explanatory role that psychology plays in the study of culture. We use a number of examples to illustrate the variety of ways by... | | 2006 |

Codding, Brian F. | Socioecological dynamics structuring the spread of farming in the North American Basin-Plateau Region | The spread of agriculture is a major driver of social and environmental change throughout 25 the Holocene, yet experimental and ethnographic data indicate that farming is less profitable than foraging, so why would individuals choose to adopt agriculture leading to its expansion?

Wiessner, Pauline W. | On emergency decisions, egalitarianism, and group selection | Boehm (CA 37:763-93) puts forward an important thesis-that with the evolution of egalitarian societies, privileged routes to reproductive advantage are blocked and the power of individua selection severely compromised. With competition so constrained, altruistic behavior can more readily spread i... | Boehm's mode; Evolution of altruistic behavior | 1998-06 |
