Benchmarking Ontologies: Bigger or Better?
A scientific ontology is a formal representation of knowledge within a domain, typically including central concepts, their properties, and relations. With the rise of computers and high-throughput data collection, ontologies have become essential to data mining and sharing across communities in the biomedical sciences. Powerful approaches exist for testing the internal consistency of an ontolog...
متن کاملResponse: Toward Better Lives
Lucy Zammarelli: I like the way the article pulls substance abuse treatment into a standardized medical perspective. Quality of life is typically a goal in treating many diseases other than substance abuse. In the drug abuse field, it provides a broader, more encompassing gauge of success than just whether the client used a drug or how much. Dave Ross: The issue is extremely important. Quality ...

This chapter discusses why some people are happier than others, focusing on the distinctive ways that happy and unhappy individuals construe themselves and others, respond to social comparisons, make decisions, and self-reflect. We sugg...
متن کاملToward a Principled Framework for Benchmarking Consistency
Large-scale key-value storage systems sacrifice consistency in the interest of dependability (i.e., partitiontolerance and availability), as well as performance (i.e., latency). Such systems provide eventual consistency, which—to this point—has been difficult to quantify in real systems. Given the many implementations and deployments of eventually-consistent systems (e.g., NoSQL systems), attem...
متن کاملToward a Better Sine Wave
In a previous paper, we showed that genetic programming can be used to evolve approximations to functions which, given certain trade-offs between cost and error, are superior to Padé approximations, which represent a generalization of Taylor series and a powerful technique from numerical analysis. In the present paper, we present an extension to this work which allows existing Padé approximatio...
