Deriving word association networks from text corpora

This article presents and evaluates a model to automatically derive word association networks from text corpora. Two aspects were evaluated: To what degree can corpus-based word association networks (CANs) approximate human word association networks with respect to (1) their ability to quantitatively predict word associations and (2) their structural network characteristics. Word association networks are the basis of the human mental lexicon. However, extracting such networks from human subjects is laborious, time consuming and thus necessarily limited in relation to the breadth of human vocabulary. Automatic derivation of word associations from text corpora would address these limitations. In both evaluations corpus-based processing provided vector representations for words. These representations were then employed to derive CANs using two measures: (1) the well known cosine metric, which is a symmetric measure, and (2) a new asymmetric measure computed from orthogonal vector projections. For both evaluations, the full set of 4068 free association networks (FANs) from the University of South Florida word association norms were used as baseline human data. Two corpus based models were benchmarked for comparison: a latent topic model and latent semantic analysis (LSA). We observed that CANs constructed using the asymmetric measure were slightly less effective than the topic model in quantitatively predicting free associates, and slightly better than LSA. The structural networks analysis revealed that CANs do approximate the FANs to an encouraging degree.

Diabetes research in South Carolina:past, present, and future

Medical investigators in South Carolina have been on the "cutting edge" of diabetes research for a number of decades. Despite this fact, our state ranks second in the nation in diabetes prevalence, and diabetes complications are more severe here than anywhere else. It is from the efforts of these investigators that our hope for a brighter future comes. Through a concerted effort toward prevention, improvements in care, and investigation of the pathophysiology of diabetes and its complications, researchers may reduce the substantial burden of diabetes in our state and throughout the world.

A Summary of the American Bar Association���s (ABA) Jurisdiction in Cyberspace Project: “Achieving Legal and Business Order in Cyberspace: A Report on Global Jurisdiction Issues Created by the Internet”

"Suite à plus de deux années de recherches, le projet de l’American Bar Association (ABA) concernant la juridiction du cyberespace, « Achieving Legal and Business Order in Cyberspace: A Report on Global Jurisdiction Issues Created by the Internet », a été publié dans l’édition du mois d’août 2000 de la revue juridique The Business Lawyer. Ce rapport poursuivait deux objectifs distincts : Tout d’abord, effectuer une analyse globale des complexités potentielles entourant les conflits juridictionnels découlant du commerce en ligne. Ensuite, élaborer une liste exhaustive des solutions pouvant être utilisées pour résoudre de tels conflits. Le présent article se veut un résumé concis et accessible des trois grandes sections du « Cyberspace Jurisdiction Report » : (1) les solutions proposées aux problèmes juridictionnels découlant des conflits résultant du commerce électronique ; (2) afin d’appuyer les solutions proposées : l’utilisation d’exemples d’occasions où la technologie a déjà, par le passé, causé la métamorphose de certains paradigmes juridictionnels; et (3) afin d’appuyer les solutions proposées : l’utilisation d’un contexte doctrinal."

Análisis del TLC entre Colombia y Estados Unidos de América, con los Estados de Colorado, Conneticut, Delaware, Dakota del sur y Florida

Este estudio nace con el propósito de analizar la influencia que tiene la economía americana en nuestro país; para entender por qué Estados Unidos es el socio comercial más importante para Colombia en términos de exportaciones y evaluar el impacto que ha tenido en el Tratado de Libre Comercio en la economía de estos países. Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior, se decidió hacer un análisis enfocado entre Colombia y Estados Unidos, específicamente en los estados de Connecticut, Colorado, Delaware, Dakota del Sur, Florida. Se presentan aspectos del territorio, la población, la política, la economía, entre otros. Por otra parte, se presentan cifras de la balanza comercial de Colombia con Estados Unidos entre los años del 2010 al 2014, las cuales permiten analizar la interacción económica entre ambos países, su evolución en el tiempo y su comportamiento después de la entrada en vigor del Tratado de Libre Comercio. Lo cual permite evidenciar que para el 2014 se presentó una balanza comercial deficitaria de 4.807 millones de USD. Con base a esto, dentro de las oportunidades comerciales de exportación para Colombia, se encuentra la industria textil, con un porcentaje del 30,9%; asientos de madera, muebles y acabados, con un incremento del 24,73%. De lo anterior podemos referir que estos sectores de industrias colombianas, reflejan un alto potencial de competitividad con los Estados Americanos, ya que estos sectores, también reflejan un alza en el incremento de las importaciones.
