From SHIQ and RDF to OWL: The Making of a Web Ontology Language

by Ian Horrocks, Peter F. Patel-Schneider, Frank Van Harmelen - Journal of Web Semantics , 2003
"... The OWL Web Ontology Language is a new formal language for representing ontologies in the Semantic Web. OWL has features from several families of representation languages, including primarily Description Logics and frames. OWL also shares many characteristics with RDF, the W3C base of the Semantic W ..."

A new scale of social desirability independent of psychopathology

by Douglas P. Crowne, David Marlowe - Journal of Consulting Psychology , 1960
"... It has long been recognized that personality test scores are influenced by non-test-relevant response determinants. Wiggins and Rumrill (1959) distinguish three approaches to this problem. Briefly, interest in the problem of response distortion has been concerned with attempts at statistical correct ..."

Mediation in experimental and nonexperimental studies: new procedures and recommendations

by Patrick E. Shrout, Niall Bolger - PSYCHOLOGICAL METHODS , 2002
"... Mediation is said to occur when a causal effect of some variable X on an outcome Y is explained by some intervening variable M. The authors recommend that with small to moderate samples, bootstrap methods (B. Efron & R. Tibshirani, 1993) be used to assess mediation. Bootstrap tests are powerful ..."

size is small or suppression is a possibility. Empirical examples and computer setups for bootstrap analyses are provided. Mediation models of psychological processes are popular because they allow interesting associations to be decomposed into components that reveal possible causal mechanisms

New results in linear filtering and prediction theory

by R. E. Kalman, R. S. Bucy - TRANS. ASME, SER. D, J. BASIC ENG , 1961
"... A nonlinear differential equation of the Riccati type is derived for the covariance matrix of the optimal filtering error. The solution of this "variance equation " completely specifies the optimal filter for either finite or infinite smoothing intervals and stationary or nonstationary sta ..."

in this field. The Duality Principle relating stochastic estimation and deterministic control problems plays an important role in the proof of theoretical results. In several examples, the estimation problem and its dual are discussed side-by-side. Properties of the variance equation are of great interest

Intrinsic and extrinsic motivations: Classic definitions and new directions.

by Richard M Ryan , Edward L Deci - Contemporary Educational Psychology, , 2000
"... Intrinsic and extrinsic types of motivation have been widely studied, and the distinction between them has shed important light on both developmental and educational practices. In this review we revisit the classic definitions of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in light of contemporary research ..."

to action-that is, it concerns the why of actions. As an example, a student can be highly motivated to do homework out of curiosity and interest or, alternatively, because he or she wants to procure the approval of a teacher or parent. A student could be motivated

RCV1: A new benchmark collection for text categorization research

by David D. Lewis, Yiming Yang, Tony G. Rose, Fan Li - JOURNAL OF MACHINE LEARNING RESEARCH , 2004
"... Reuters Corpus Volume I (RCV1) is an archive of over 800,000 manually categorized newswire stories recently made available by Reuters, Ltd. for research purposes. Use of this data for research on text categorization requires a detailed understanding of the real world constraints under which the data ..."

the data was produced. Drawing on interviews with Reuters personnel and access to Reuters documentation, we describe the coding policy and quality control procedures used in producing the RCV1 data, the intended semantics of the hierarchical category taxonomies, and the corrections necessary to remove

Gapped BLAST and PSI-BLAST: a new generation of protein database search programs.

by Stephen F Altschul , Thomas L Madden , Alejandro A Schäffer , Jinghui Zhang , Zheng Zhang , Webb Miller , David J Lipman - Nucleic Acids Res. , 1997
"... ABSTRACT The BLAST programs are widely used tools for searching protein and DNA databases for sequence similarities. For protein comparisons, a variety of definitional, algorithmic and statistical refinements described here permits the execution time of the BLAST programs to be decreased substantia ..."
Abstract - Cited by 8572 (88 self) - Add to MetaCart
BLAST, but in many cases is much more sensitive to weak but biologically relevant sequence similarities. PSI-BLAST is used to uncover several new and interesting members of the BRCT superfamily.

Matching words and pictures

by Kobus Barnard, Pinar Duygulu, David Forsyth, Nando De Freitas, David M. Blei, Michael I. Jordan - JOURNAL OF MACHINE LEARNING RESEARCH , 2003
"... We present a new approach for modeling multi-modal data sets, focusing on the specific case of segmented images with associated text. Learning the joint distribution of image regions and words has many applications. We consider in detail predicting words associated with whole images (auto-annotation ..."
Abstract - Cited by 665 (40 self) - Add to MetaCart
the relationships between image regions and semantic correlates (words) is an interesting example of multi-modal data mining, particularly because it is typically hard to apply data mining techniques to collections of images. We develop a number of models for the joint distribution of image regions and words

Description Logic Programs: Combining Logic Programs with Description Logic

by Benjamin N. Grosof, Ian Horrocks , 2002
"... We show how to interoperate, semantically and inferentially, between the leading Semantic Web approaches to rules (RuleML Logic Programs) and ontologies (OWL/DAML+OIL Description Logic) via analyzing their expressive intersection. To do so, we define a new intermediate knowledge representation (KR) ..."

Perspectives on Program Analysis

by Flemming Nielson , 1996

On the negative side, the semantic correctness of the analysis is seldom established and therefore there is often no formal justification for the program transformations for which the information is used. The semantics based approach [1; 5] is often based on domain theory in the form ..."
