29 Freire, JulianaOrganizing hidden-web databases by clustering visible web documentsIn this paper we address the problem of organizing hidden-Web databases. Given a heterogeneous set of Web forms that serve as entry points to hidden-Web databases, our goal is to cluster the forms according to the database domains to which they belong. We propose a new clustering approach that mode...Hidden-web databases; Web documents2007-04
30 Jameson, Kenneth P.Data and social science rhetoric: policy and instructionI believe that social science and empirical investigation can make important contributions to our understanding and to resolution of policy issues, but only if we are clear on the nature of social science and the role of quantification. In particular we must admit the limits of our truth claims, th...Social sciences; Quantification; Empirical investigation1996
31 Allen, Edgar S.Sensory information processing (1 July 1975 - 31 December 1975)In the previous semi-annual report a new method was described for removing blur from photographic images. Several experiments are described here illustrating the effect of adjusting the cutoff frequency of filters used in the restoration scheme.Blur; Photographic images; Restoration scheme1977

33 Miller, Jan D.Free and emulsified oil removal by bubble accelerated flotation (BAF)Operational data from full-scale field applications and pilot tests using the Bubble Accelerated Flotation ( B A R system for the treatment of wastewater are presented. The compact BAF system based on the air-sparged hydrocyclone technology was designed to remove pollutants from industrial waste and...Bubble accelerated flotation; Air-sparged hydrocyclone; Flocculants; Oil-in-water emulsion1999
34 Riloff, Ellen M.Corpus-based approach for building semantic lexiconsSemantic knowledge can be a great asset to natural language processing systems, but it is usually hand-coded for each application. Although some semantic information is available in general-purpose knowledge bases such as Word Net and Cyc, many applications require domain-specific lexicons that repr...Corpus-based method; Semantic lexicons1997
35 Flynn, John J.Survey of injunctive relief under state and federal antitrust lawsRelatively little has been written about equitable relief under state and federal antitrust laws.1 Equity power in antitrust enforcement means much more than the mere power to restrain a defendant from doing an act for which the plaintiff has no "remedy at law," to order a defendant to remove a nuis...Statute; Directive1967
36 Berg, Cynthia A.Individual differences in script reports: implications for language assessmentWhen individuals are asked to describe routine events, their descriptions often exhibit characteristics of script reports (Schank & Abelson, 1977). A script has been defined as a set of expectations individuals have about routine events that is organized in a temporal-causal sequence of acts or sing...Script reports; Language assessment1990
37 Zhang, KangHeterozygous and homozygous mutations in PITX3 in a large Lebanese family with posterior polar cataracts and neurodevelopmental abnormalitiesPURPOSE: The PITX3 gene, which codes for a homeobox bicoidlike transcription factor is responsible for dominant cataract and anterior segment mesenchymal dysgenesis in humans. In the current study, a family with autosomal dominant posterior polar cataract (PPC) and a PITX3 mutation that cosegregates...Chromosomes, Human, Pair 10; Homozygote; Lod Score2006
38 Riloff, Ellen M.Learning domain-specific information extraction patterns from the webMany information extraction (IE) systems rely on manually annotated training data to learn patterns or rules for extracting information about events. Manually annotating data is expensive, however, and a new data set must be annotated for each domain. So most IE training sets are relatively small. C...Information extraction; Domain-specific; Annotated training sets; MUC-42006
39 Flynn, John J.General practitioner's introduction to antitrust law and practiceAntitrust practice is considered by many general practitioners to be arcane, complex and mysterious.

Before Bush increased tax cuts ...Matrimony; Immigration; Citizenship2003-10-10
41 Riloff, Ellen M.Unsupervised learning of contextual role knowledge for coreference resolutionWe present a coreference resolver called BABAR that uses contextual role knowledge to evaluate possible antecedents for an anaphor. BABAR uses information extraction patterns to identify contextual roles and creates four contextual role knowledge sources using unsupervised learning. These knowledge ...Coreference resolution; Coreference resolver; BABAR; Contextual role knowledge; Unsupervised learning2004
42 Allen, Edgar S.Sensory information processing and symbolic computation (1 Jan. 1975 - 30 June 1975)This research uses digital computation to investigate processes, both linear and nonlinear, for the filtering. restoration, enhancement, bandwidth reduction, distortion immunization and analysis of both visual and auditory information.Sensory information processing; Symbolic computation; Auditory information; Visual information1973
43 Riloff, Ellen M.Unified model of phrasal and sentential evidence for information extractionInformation Extraction (IE) systems that extract role fillers for events typically look at the local context surrounding a phrase when deciding whether to extract it. Often, however, role fillers occur in clauses that are not directly linked to an event word. We present a new model for event extract...Information extraction; Phrasal evidence; Sentential evidence; Role fillers; Event extraction; Sentential event recognizer; Plausible roll-filler recognizer2009
44 Davidson, Diane W.Comparative structure of harvester ant communities in arid Australia and North AmericaIn the Australian arid zone, the species richness of ants is greater and that of mammalian granivores is less than in North American deserts. This study aimed to determine if the structure of harvester ant communities differs from that seen in North American deserts, focussing on differences relate...Species; Rodents; Diversity1988
