Do the viewpoint costs incurred when naming rotated familiar objects arise during initial identification or during consolidation? To answer this question we employed an attentional blink (AB) task where two target objects appeared amongst a rapid stream of distractor objects. Our assumption was that while both targets and distractors undergo initial identification only targets are consolidated ...

Work published on ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, DOI: 10.1016/j.isprsjprs.2018.01.021 In remote sensing images, the absolute orientation of objects is arbitrary. Depending on an object’s orientation and on a sensor’s flight path, objects of the same semantic class can be observed in different orientations in the same image. Equivariance to rotation, in this context understo...

this study extends prior researches by exploring the effect of organizational orientations on export performance. building on the already extensive literature, we developed a model of relationship. a total of 120 usable questionnaires were received from the iranian food industry smes. the results indicated that entrepreneurial orientation, market orientation and learning orientation positively ...

In classical theories of automaticity, automatic processes are usually thought to occur autonomously and independently of higher level top-down factors (e.g., Posner & Snyder, 1975). However, already Neumann (1984) pointed out that the cognitive system has to be configured in a certain way for automatic processes to occur. In extension of his work, I propose a gating framework to account for th...

Semantic comprehension-based and machine learning based are two major methods for the classification of Chinese sentiment. The advantage of semantic comprehension-based method is that it can classify text among domains and achieve satisfied portability. However, the accuracy of classification is limited. Although the accuracy derived from supervised machine learning method is much better, the p...

Automatically identifying the sentiment polarity of words is a very important task that has been used as the essential building block of many natural language processing systems such as text classification, text filtering, product review analysis, survey response analysis, and on-line discussion mining. We propose a method for identifying the sentiment polarity of words that applies a Markov ra...

BACKGROUND The Addenbrooke's Cognitive Examination (ACE) is a simple diagnostic tool bridging the gap between the very brief Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE) and much longer test batteries used by neuropsychologists which has proven extremely popular internationally. OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess the ability of the ACE to differentiate semantic dementia (SD) from Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHO...

Sentiment analysis of weblogs is a challenging problem. Most previous work utilized semantic orientations of words or phrases to classify sentiments of weblogs. The problem with this approach is that semantic orientations of words or phrases are investigated without considering the domain of weblogs. Weblogs contain the author’s various opinions about multifaceted topics. Therefore, we have to ...

Notes on this manuscript. This paper was begun in the mid 1980's { I will try to nd out exactly when sometime. The last time that I worked at all on the text was in 1988. This is essentially the 1988 draft, with some minor formatting changes. I have never published the paper because it seems to me to need more thought.

this paper examines the semantic contribution of -?r and -andeh suffixes in persian based on lieber’s (2004) lexical semantic representation. this framework using six semantic features ([material], [dynamic], [location], [ieps] , [b] and [ci] and a principle called coordination principle studies the semantic contribution of lexical items including affixes and their functions in compounding, der...
