Conducting Online Expert panels: a feasibility and experimental replicability study

BACKGROUND This paper has two goals. First, we explore the feasibility of conducting online expert panels to facilitate consensus finding among a large number of geographically distributed stakeholders. Second, we test the replicability of panel findings across four panels of different size. METHOD We engaged 119 panelists in an iterative process to identify definitional features of Continuou...

Towards Replicability in Parsing

We investigate parsing replicability across 7 languages (and 8 treebanks), showing that choices concerning the use of grammatical functions in parsing or evaluation and the influence of the rare word threshold, as well as choices in test sentences and evaluation script options have considerable and often unexpected effects on parsing accuracies. All of those choices need to be carefully documen...

Replicability of Neural Computing Experiments

The nature of iterative learning on a randomized initial architecture, such as backpropagation training of a multilayer perceptron, is such that precise replication of a reported result is virtually impossible. The outcome is that experimental replication of reported results, a touchstone of “the scientific method,” is not an option for researchers in this most popular subfield of neural comput...
