Animacy Detection in Stories
Abstract This paper presents a linguistically uninformed computational model for animacy classification. The model makes use of word n-grams in combination with lower dimensional word embedding representations that are learned from a web-scale corpus. We compare the model to a number of linguistically informed models that use features such as dependency tags and show competitive results. We app...
متن کاملFacultative and non-facultative sex ratio adjustments in a
15 If parental allocation to each offspring sex has the same cost/benefit ratio, Fisher's 16 hypothesis predicts a sex ratio biased towards the cheaper sex. However, in 17 dimorphic birds there is little evidence for this, especially at hatching. We 18 investigated the pre-fledgling (i) sex ratio, (ii) body condition and (iii) sex19 differential mortality in a population of the glossy ibis (Ple...
متن کاملPerceptual causality and animacy.
Certain simple visual displays consisting of moving 2-D geometric shapes can give rise to percepts with high-level properties such as causality and animacy. This article reviews recent research on such phenomena, which began with the classic work of Michotte and of Heider and Simmel. The importance of such phenomena stems in part from the fact that these interpretations seem to be largely perce...
متن کاملAutomatic Animacy Classification
We introduce the automatic annotation of noun phrases in parsed sentences with tags from a fine-grained semantic animacy hierarchy. This information is of interest within lexical semantics and has potential value as a feature in several NLP tasks. We train a discriminative classifier on an annotated corpus of spoken English, with features capturing each noun phrase’s constituent words, its inte...
متن کاملThe role of animacy in spatial transformations.
We present evidence that different mental spatial transformations are used to reason about three different types of items representing a spectrum of animacy: human bodies, nonhuman animals, and inanimate objects. Participants made two different judgments about rotated figures: handedness judgments ("Is this the left or right side?") and matching judgments ("Are these figures the same?"). Perspe...
