Ado-lists: A new concept for Stata

A new command called adolist is presented. adolist is a tool to create, install, and uninstall lists of user ado-packages (“adolists”). For example, adolist can create a list of all user packages installed on a system and then install the same packages on another system. Moreover, ado-list can be used to put together thematic lists of packages such as, say, a list on income inequality analysis or time-series add-ons, or the list of “41 user ados everyone should know”. Such lists can then be shared with others, who can easily install and uninstall the listed packages using the adolist command.

Characterising emergent semantics in Twitter lists

Twitter lists organise Twitter users into multiple, often overlapping, sets. We believe that these lists capture some form of emergent semantics, which may be useful to characterise. In this paper we describe an approach for such characterisation, which consists of deriving semantic relations between lists and users by analyzing the cooccurrence of keywords in list names. We use the vector space model and Latent Dirichlet Allocation to obtain similar keywords according to co-occurrence patterns. These results are then compared to similarity measures relying on WordNet and to existing Linked Data sets. Results show that co-occurrence of keywords based on members of the lists produce more synonyms and more correlated results to that of WordNet similarity measures.
