The Corpus of Contemporary American English as the first reliable monitor corpus
- of English’, Literary and Linguistic Computing
"... The Corpus of Contemporary American English is the first large, genre-balanced corpus of any language, which has been designed and constructed from the ground up as a ‘monitor corpus’, and which can be used to accurately track and study recent changes in the language. The 400 million words corpus is ..."

is evenly divided between spoken, fiction, popular magazines, newspapers, and academic journals. Most importantly, the genre balance stays almost exactly the same from year to year, which allows it to accurately model changes in the ‘real world’. After discussing the corpus design, we provide a number
Usability Evaluation Considered Harmful (Some of the Time)

Current practice in Human Computer Interaction as encouraged by educational institutes, academic review processes, and institutions with usability groups advocate usability evaluation as a critical part of every design process. This is for good reason: usability evaluation has a significant role to ..."

Convexity Rule for Shape Decomposition Based on Discrete Contour Evolution
- Computer Vision and Image Understanding
, 1999
"... We concentrate here on decomposition of 2D objects into meaningful parts of visual form,orvisual parts. It is a simple observation that convex parts of objects determine visual parts. However, the problem is that many significant visual parts are not convex, since a visual part may have concavities. ..."

. We solve this problem by identifying convex parts at different stages of a proposed contour evolution method in which significant visual parts will become convex object parts at higher stages of the evolution. We obtain a novel rule for decomposition of 2D objects into visual parts, called
Applying Academic Research on Monetary Policy Rules: An Exercise in

Time course of frequency effects in spoken-word recognition: Evidence from eye movements
- Cognitive Psychology
, 2001
"... In two experiments, eye movements were monitored as participants followed spoken instructions to click on and move pictures with a computer mouse. In Experiment 1, a referent picture (e.g., the picture of a bench) was presented along with three pictures, two of which had names that shared the same i ..."

Functional-anatomic study of episodic retrieval using fMRI. I. Retrieval effort versus retrieval success.
- NeuroImage
, 1998
"... In a companion paper (R. L. Buckner et al., 1998, NeuroImage 7, 151-162) we used fMRI to identify brain areas activated by episodic memory retrieval. Prefrontal areas were shown to differentiate component processes related to retrieval success and retrieval effort in block-designed paradigms. Impor ..."

Specifications in an arbitrary institution

, 1988
"... A formalism for constructing and using axiomatic specifications in an arbitrary logical system is presented. This builds on the framework provided by Goguen and Burstall’s work on the notion of an institution as a formalisation of the concept of a logical system for writing specifications. We show h ..."

We examine the set of operations which results when the definitions are instantiated in institutions of total and partial tirst-order logic and compare these with the operations found in existing specification languages. We present proof rules which allow proofs to be conducted in specifications
Age Classification from Facial Images

Currently, the theory has only beenimplemented to classify input images into one of three agegroups: babies, young adults, and senior adults. The computations are based on cranio-facial developm ..."

Stable Coalition Structures with Externalities
