Focusing on Novelty: A Crawling Strategy to Build Diverse Language Models ABSTRACT
"... Word prediction performed by language models has an important role in many tasks as e.g. word sense disambiguation, speech recognition, hand-writing recognition, query spelling and query segmentation. Recent research has exploited the textual content of the Web to create language models. In this pap ..."

. In this paper, we propose a new focused crawling strategy to collect Web pages that focuses on novelty in order to create diverse language models. In each crawling cycle, the crawler tries to fill the gaps present in the current language model built from previous cycles, by avoiding visiting pages whose
Materials for an exploratory theory of the network society.
- The British Journal of Sociology
, 2000
"... ABSTRACT This article aims at proposing some elements for a grounded theor y of the network society. The network society is the social structure characteristic of the Information Age, as tentatively identi ed by empirical, cross-cultural investigation.

As with all historical transformations, the emergence of a new social structure is linked to a rede nition of the material
Continuity and discontinuity of behavioral inhibition and exuberance: Psychophysiological and behavioral influences across the first four years of life.
- Child Development,
, 2001
"... Abstract: Four-month-old infants were screened (N = 433) for temperamental patterns thought to predict behavioral inhibition, including motor reactivity and the expression of negative affect. Those selected (N = 153) were assessed at multiple age points across the first 4 years of life for behavior ..."

Effects of racial diversity on complex thinking in college students
- Psychological Science
, 2004

ABSTRACT—An experiment varying the racial (Black, White) and opinion composition in small-group discussions was conducted with college students (N 5 357) at three universities to test for effects on the perceived novelty of group members ’ contributions to discussion and on participants ’ integrativ ..."

Generally positive effects on integrative complexity were found when the groups had racialand opinion-minority members and when members reported having racially diverse friends

Coevolution of network structure and content, arXiv:1107.5543. Online preprint
, 2011
"... As individuals communicate, their exchanges form a dy-namic network. We demonstrate, using time series analy-sis of communication in three online settings, that network structure alone can be highly revealing of the diversity and novelty of the information being communicated. Our ap-proach uses both ..."

Which random processes describe the tree of life? A large-scale study of phylogenetic tree imbalance.
- Syst. Biol.
, 2006
"... The explosion of phylogenetic studies not only provides a clear snapshot of biodiversity, but also makes it possible to infer how the diversity has arisen (see for example, The analysis of stochastic models of phylogenetic tree shape, which began with Yule in 1924, was revived in the mid-1970s by ..."

Towards an aesthetic of unfolding in/sights through curriculum
- Journal of the Canadian Association for Curriculum Studies
, 2003
"... In recent times, analytic reasoning and rationality rooted in detached cognitive ways of knowing have found new life in government created policies, laws and curricula. As someone witnessing this regressive move, I am fully conscious of a public desire to simplify the chaotic, structure the unordere ..."

the unordered, and deny the ambiguous. This harkening back to the Enlightenment is a search for certainty and predictability, standardization and conformity. Yet, there exists a countermovement encouraging diversity, transformation, and innovation. This transition from scientific domination toward the social
AN (2012) Iterative refinement of a binding pocket model: active computational steering of lead optimization
- J Med Chem
"... ABSTRACT: Computational approaches for binding affinity prediction are most frequently demonstrated through cross-validation within a series of molecules or through performance shown on a blinded test set. Here, we show how such a system performs in an iterative, temporal lead optimization exercise. ..."

Compound selection was followed by model refinement using the new data. Iterative computational candidate selection produced rapid improvements
