Strong baselines for cross-lingual entity linking

by Valentin I. Spitkovsky, Angel X. Chang - In TAC , 2011
"... We describe several context-independent baselines for tackling the cross-lingual entity linking task. Our methods are quite basic, reducing to efficient look-ups in static, pre-computed tables. Despite their simplicity, however, such approaches scored well in a recent knowledgebase population compet ..."

Two Strong Baselines for the BioNLP 2009 Event Extraction Task

by Andreas Vlachos - Proceedings of the 2010 Workshop on Biomedical Natural Language Processing
"... This paper presents two strong baselines for the BioNLP 2009 shared task on event extraction. First we re-implement a rulebased approach which allows us to explore the task and the effect of domainadapted parsing on it. We then replace the rule-based component with support vector machine classifiers ..."

Approximating the nondominated front using the Pareto Archived Evolution Strategy

by Joshua D. Knowles, David W. Corne - EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTATION , 2000
"... We introduce a simple evolution scheme for multiobjective optimization problems, called the Pareto Archived Evolution Strategy (PAES). We argue that PAES may represent the simplest possible nontrivial algorithm capable of generating diverse solutions in the Pareto optimal set. The algorithm, in its ..."

simplest form, is a (1 + 1) evolution strategy employing local search but using a reference archive of previously found solutions in order to identify the approximate dominance ranking of the current and candidate solution vectors. (1 + 1)-PAES is intended to be a baseline approach against which more

A New Baseline for Image Annotation

by Ameesh Makadia, Vladimir Pavlovic, Sanjiv Kumar
"... Abstract. Automatically assigning keywords to images is of great interest as it allows one to index, retrieve, and understand large collections of image data. Many techniques have been proposed for image annotation in the last decade that give reasonable performance on standard datasets. However, mo ..."

Re-examining adaptation and the setpoint model of happiness: Reactions to changes in marital status

by Richard E. Lucas, Yannis Georgellis, Andrew E. Clark - Journal of Personality and Social Psychology , 2003
"... According to adaptation theory, individuals react to events but quickly adapt back to baseline levels of subjective well-being. To test this idea, the authors used data from a 15-year longitudinal study of over 24,000 individuals to examine the effects of marital transitions on life satisfaction. On ..."

. On average, individuals reacted to events and then adapted back toward baseline levels. However, there were substantial individual differences in this tendency. Individuals who initially reacted strongly were still far from baseline years later, and many people exhibited trajectories that were

Permanent Scatterers in SAR interferometry

by Ro Ferretti, Claudio Prati, Fabio Rocca - IEEE Transactions on Geosci- ence and Remote Sensing
"... Abstract—Temporal and geometrical decorrelation often pre-vents SAR interferometry from being an operational tool for sur-face deformation monitoring and topographic profile reconstruc-tion. Moreover, atmospheric disturbances can strongly compro-mise the accuracy of the results. In this paper, we pr ..."

Stable baseline correction of digital strong-motion data

by Hung-chie Chiu - Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America , 1997
"... Abstract Most baseline errors of analog strong-motion data still exist in high-resolution data. In this study, we identify the major baseline errors of digital strong-motion data and propose a three-step algorithm to correct hese errors. The major baseline rrors found in these digital data consist o ..."

Comments on baseline correction of digital strong-motion data: examples from the

by David M. Boore, Christopher D. Stephens, William B. Joyner , 2001
"... Abstract Residual displacements for large earthquakes can sometimes be determined from recordings on modern digital instruments, but baseline offsets of unknown origin make it difficult in many cases to do so. To recover the residual displacement, we suggest tailoring a correction scheme by studying ..."

Wide-baseline multiple-view correspondences

by Vittorio Ferrari, Tinne Tuytelaars, Luc Van Gool - In Proceedings of the IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition , 2003
"... We present a novel approach for establishing multiple-view feature correspondences along an unordered set of images taken from substantially different viewpoints. While recently several wide-baseline stereo (WBS) algorithms have appeared, the N-view case is largely unexplored. In this paper, an esta ..."

A Baseline Climatology of Sounding-Derived Supercell and Tornado Forecast Parameters

by Erik N. Rasmussen, David, O. Blanchard , 1997
"... All of the 0000 UTC soundings from the United States made during the year 1992 that have nonzero convective available potential energy (CAPE) are examined. Soundings are classified as being associated with nonsupercell thunderstorms, supercells without significant tornadoes, and supercells with sign ..."

The causes for the very large false alarm rates in the tornadic/nontornadic supercell forecast, even with the best
