Detecting previously unseen named entities in text is a challenging task. The paper describes how three initial classifier models were built using Conditional Random Fields (CRFs), Support Vector Machines (SVMs) and a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network. The outputs of these three classifiers were then used as features to train another CRF classifier working as an ensemble. 5...

The applicability of the identical elements (IE) model of arithmetic fact retrieval (T. C. Rickard, A. F. Healy, & L. E. Bourne, 1994) to cued recall from episodic (image and sentence) memory was explored in 3 transfer experiments. In agreement with results from arithmetic, speedup following even minimal practice recalling a missing word from an episodically bound word triplet did not transfer ...

One of the most robust findings in cognitive aging is that of a significant decline in self-initiated recall from episodic memory. In laboratory studies this deficit can be seen in significant age differences in word-list free recall. In this article, we focus on free recall of categorized word lists where one observes "response bursting" in the form of a rapid output of within-category items w...

This paper defines the extensive form correlated equilibrium (EFCE) for extensive games with perfect recall. The EFCE concept extends Aumann’s strategic-form correlated equilibrium (CE). Before the game starts, a correlation device generates a move for each information set. This move is recommended to the player only when the player reaches the information set. In two-player perfect-recall exte...

This is a short presentation of the freefem++ software. In Section 1, we recall most of the characteristics of the software, In Section 2, we recall how to to build the weak form of a partial differential equation (PDE) from the strong form. In the 3 last sections, we present different examples and tools to illustrated the power of the software. First we deal with mesh adaptation for problems i...

Standardized and easily administered measures are needed to facilitate research on child neglect. The Multidimensional Neglectful behavior Scale (MNBS) is intended to measure neglect of four basic developmental needs: (1) neglect of physical needs such as food, clothing, shelter, medical care; (2) emotional needs such as affection, companionship, support; (3) supervisory needs such as setting l...

Generation of the B cell recall response appears to involve interaction of Ag, in the form of an immune complex (IC) trapped on follicular dendritic cells (FDCs), with germinal center (GC) B cells. Thus, the expression of receptors on FDC and B cells that interact with ICs could be critical to the induction of an optimal recall response. FDCs in GCs, but not in primary follicles, express high l...
