Information extraction: techniques and challenges

by Ralph Grishman - In Information Extraction (International Summer School SCIE-97 , 1997
"... This volume takes a broad view of information extraction as any method for ltering information from large volumes of text. This includes the retrieval of documents from collections and the tagging of particular terms in text. In this paper we shall use a narrower de nition: the identi cation of inst ..."

of instances of a particular class of events or relationships in a natural language text, and the extraction of the relevant arguments ofthe event or relationship. Information extraction therefore involves the creation of a structured representation (such asadata base) of selected information drawn from

Argumentation-based communication between agents

by Simon Parsons, Peter Mcburney - In: Communication in Multiagent Systems. Volume 2650 of LNAI., Springer-Verlag , 2004
"... Abstract. One approach to agent communication is to insist that agents not only send messages, but support them with reasons why those messages are appropri-ate. This is argumentation-based communication. This chapter looks at some of our work on argumentation-based communication, focusing on issues ..."

Evaluating science arguments: evidence, uncertainty, and argument

by Adam Corner, Ulrike Hahn - J. Mem. Lang , 2009
"... Public debates about socioscientific issues are increasingly prevalent, but the public response to messages about, for example, climate change, does not always seem to match the seriousness of the problem identified by scientists. Is there anything unique about appeals based on scientific evidence—d ..."

I‖ seek pleasures and ―we‖ avoid pains: The role of selfregulatory goals in information processing and persuasion

by Jennifer L. Aaker, Angela Y. Lee - Journal of Consumer Research , 2001
"... In four experiments, we show that goals associated with approach and avoidance needs influence persuasion and that the accessibility of distinct self-views mod-erates these effects. Specifically, individuals with an accessible independent self-view are more persuaded by promotion-focused information ..."

demonstrate greater recall of the message content and are more discerning regarding argument strength. These findings provide conver-gent evidence that central processing under goal compatible conditions underlies the persuasion effects. Consider two friends, Nancy and Genevieve, both ofwhom were recently

For Message Received

by Prof Jenny Kitzinger , Kathleen Ward
"... Abstract This article introduces, and attempts to define, the concept of 'media templates'. Drawing on focus groups discussions, content analysis and interviews with media personnel I demonstrate how template events help to shape news narratives and guide thinking not only about the past, ..."

, but also of the present and the future. The argument is illustrated by examining the position of 'the Cleveland scandal' (and the subsequent 'Orkney crisis') in discussions of child sexual abuse. The discussion explores how templates such as 'Cleveland' are established

Logic, Parables, and Argument

by Trudy Govier, Lowell Ayers, Lethbridge Ab, Tk M
"... entre l’argument et le récit dans les paraboles. Généralement on croit que les paraboles transmettent un message. En examinant une parabole, nous pouvons nous de-mander ce que ce message est, si l'histoire racontée fournit des raisons pour ce message, et si ces raisons sont bonnes. Pour répondr ..."

Algorithmic Arguments in Physics of Computation

by Paul Vitányi, Ming Li
"... . We show the usefulness of incompressibility arguments based on Kolmogorov complexity in physics of computation by several examples. These include analysis of energy parsimonious `adiabatic' computation, and scalability of network architectures. 1 Introduction In [Shannon, 1948] C. Shannon fo ..."

Communication complexity of simultaneous messages

by László Babai, Anna Gál, Peter G. Kimmel, Satyanarayana V. Lokam - SIAM Journal on Computing
"... In the multiparty communication game (CFL-game) of Chandra, Furst, and Lipton (Proc. 15th ACM STOC, 1983, 94–99) k players collaboratively evaluate a function f(x0,..., xk−1) in which player i knows all inputs except xi. The players have unlimited computational power. The objective is to minimize co ..."

communication. In this paper, we study the Simultaneous Messages (SM) model of multiparty communication complexity. The SM model is a restricted version of the CFL-game in which the players are not allowed to communicate with each other. Instead, each of the k players simultaneously sends a message to a referee

Information-Based Argumentation

"... Abstract. Information-based argumentation aims to model the partner’s reason-ing apparatus to the extent that an agent can work with it to achieve outcomes that are mutually satisfactory and lay the foundation for continued interaction and per-haps lasting business relationships.

On Privacy and Partition Arguments

by Benny Chor, Yuval Ishai

On the other hand, we show that increasing the number of sets k does give some extra characterization power. Key Words: private distributed computation, partition arguments A prelim ..."
