Strategies of Discourse Comprehension

by Teun A. Van Dijk, Walter Kintsch , 1983
"... El Salvador, Guatemala is a, study in black and white. On the left is a collection of extreme Marxist-Leninist groups led by what one diplomat calls “a pretty faceless bunch of people.’ ’ On the right is an entrenched elite that has dominated Central America’s most populous country since a CIA-backe ..."

Comprehensive database for facial expression analysis

by Takeo Kanade, Jeffrey F. Cohn, Yingli Tian - in Proceedings of Fourth IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture Recognition
"... Within the past decade, significant effort has occurred in developing methods of facial expression analysis. Because most investigators have used relatively limited data sets, the generalizability of these various methods remains unknown. We describe the problem space for facial expression analysis, ..."

Toward a model of text comprehension and production

by Walter Kintsch, Teun A. Van Dijk - Psychological Review , 1978
"... The semantic structure of texts can be described both at the local microlevel and at a more global macrolevel. A model for text comprehension based on this notion accounts for the formation of a coherent semantic text base in terms of a cyclical process constrained by limitations of working memory. ..."

Local features and kernels for classification of texture and object categories: a comprehensive study

by J. Zhang, S. Lazebnik, C. Schmid - International Journal of Computer Vision , 2007
"... Recently, methods based on local image features have shown promise for texture and object recognition tasks. This paper presents a large-scale evaluation of an approach that represents images as distributions (signatures or histograms) of features extracted from a sparse set of keypoint locations an ..."

A computational approach to edge detection

by John Canny - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 1986
"... This paper describes a computational approach to edge detection. The success of the approach depends on the definition of a comprehensive set of goals for the computation of edge points. These goals must be precise enough to delimit the desired behavior of the detector while making minimal assumpti ..."

"... Abstract A new software suite, called Crystallography & NMR System (CNS), has been developed for macromolecular structure determination by X-ray crystallography or solution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In contrast to existing structure determination programs the architecture o ..."

properties. The power of the CNS language has been demonstrated by the implementation of a comprehensive set of crystallographic procedures for phasing, density modification, and refinement. User-friendly task-oriented input files are available for nearly all aspects of macromolecular structure determination

LIBLINEAR: A Library for Large Linear Classification

by Rong-en Fan, Kai-wei Chang, Cho-jui Hsieh, Xiang-rui Wang, Chih-jen Lin , 2008

Application of Phylogenetic Networks in Evolutionary Studies

by Daniel H. Huson, David Bryant - SUBMITTED TO MBE 2005 , 2005
"... The evolutionary history of a set of taxa is usually represented by a phylogenetic tree, and this model has greatly facilitated the discussion and testing of hypotheses. However, it is well known that more complex evolutionary scenarios are poorly described by such models. Further, even when evoluti ..."

both split networks and reticulate networks, how they are defined and how they can be interpreted. Additionally, the paper outlines the beginnings of a comprehensive statistical framework for applying split network methods. We show how split networks can represent confidence sets of trees and introduce

Executive Compensation

This paper summarizes the empirical and theoretical research on executive compensation and provides a comprehensive and up-to-date description of pay practices (and trends in pay practices) for chief executive officers (CEOs). Topics discussed include the level and structure of CEO pay (including de ..."
