A Machine-Aided Approach To Intelligent Index Generation, Shelly Candita Lukon Jan 2006

A Machine-Aided Approach To Intelligent Index Generation, Shelly Candita Lukon

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

Back-of-the-book indexing is the process of generating a list of relevant terms, sub-terms and cross-references from a corpus and providing the user with corresponding page references.

Several cognitive tasks are necessary to produce a good index, and are performed primarily by the human indexer. Indexing has become somewhat automated through computer applications, which at best generate a concordance, and exist to reduce the mundane portions of the process. However, none of these tools determines which terms to index, nor do they capture context-sensitive information about terms and their relationships. Human indexers perform these time-consuming tasks.

The challenge is to develop …


From Communicative Silencer To Responsive Listener: Participation And Public Dialogue In Benin, André Quenum Jan 2006

From Communicative Silencer To Responsive Listener: Participation And Public Dialogue In Benin, André Quenum

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The interpretation explores the issue of participatory communication within the particular Beninese context of public dialogue by focusing on the communicative praxis of intellectual elite and by taking the public dialogue of the 1990 National Conference of Benin as a case study. The interpretive listening of such a situated participatory public dialogue results in the framing of two major metaphors: communicative silencer and responsive listener. First, the interpretation unveils that the possibility of broad participation in the democratization of Benin is compromised by a culture of silence in which intellectual elite become communicative silencers of the silenced communities including the …


Does Caring Matter?: A Qualitative Study Of Urban African American Alternative School Students Perceptions Of Their School Experiences, Past And Present, Victoria Berger Jan 2006

Does Caring Matter?: A Qualitative Study Of Urban African American Alternative School Students Perceptions Of Their School Experiences, Past And Present, Victoria Berger

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

A cultural mismatch among African American school students and their teachers, due to diverse values, norms, and expectations, often provokes inappropriate teacher response to student conduct, thereby inciting disruptive student behavior. The management of this diversity when the environment is devoid of a teacher's sensitivity to the student's life can impact students' behavior, and ultimately, initiate an alternative school referral. This study examines such student-teacher interactions through the lens provided by the analogous dynamics of iatrogenic harm, wherein an intervention by a medical or other specialist results in additional impairment or disease. This study intends to reveal, through the voice …


Bayesian Analysis Of Discrete Longitudinal Data, Nicholas Bernini Jan 2006

Bayesian Analysis Of Discrete Longitudinal Data, Nicholas Bernini

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis explores a Bayesian hierarchical model to compare treatment effectiveness for menopausal symptom relief. Specifically, this model recognizes the discrete nature of the data, as well as its time dependency. Bayesian analysis is used to make inference on each individual profile, as well as on a group profile for each treatment group.


Forecasting Short Term Trends In Prices Of U.S. Stock Market, Benjamin Ward Jan 2006

Forecasting Short Term Trends In Prices Of U.S. Stock Market, Benjamin Ward

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

This thesis explores a cubic model to forecast short term trends in stock prices. Specifically, this model recognizes the limited applicability of instantaneous rate of change indications from the current stock price of an individual corporation. Discussed first is the nature of share price as a data vector and derivations of linear and non-linear mathematical operators. A proposed methodology demonstrates market entry and exit techniques that comprise a trading system and prediction range is evaluated with emphasis on error analysis.
