Our study examines two models of helping behavior in work groups. Our first model is a crosslevel model and predicts that group-level cohesion, cooperative norms, and task conflict are related to individual helping behavior (peer-rated). Results support our hypotheses and further demonstrate that of the three group characteristics, cooperative norms have the strongest relationship with individu...

In this paper we present the evaluation of different features for multiligual and crosslevel semantic textual similarity. Three different types of features were used: lexical, knowledge-based and corpus-based. The results obtained at the Semeval competition rank our approaches above the average of the rest of the teams highlighting the usefulness of the features presented in this paper.

Research abounds on software teams enhancing their processes via IT. However, the unintended group-level effects of interruptions triggered by such IT are rarely examined. This paper develops a conceptual, multilevel model that focuses on the paths linking individually experienced IT interruptions to group coordination outcomes. Drawing on coordination theory and the work interruptions literatu...

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have exhibited great potential in the field of image classification in the past few years. In this paper, we present a novel strategy named cross-level to improve the existing CNNs’ architecture in which different levels of feature representation in a network are merely connected in series. The basic idea of crosslevel is to establish a convolutional layer b...

This paper provides system description of the cross-level semantic similarity task for the SEMEVAL-2014 workshop. Crosslevel semantic similarity measures the degree of relatedness between texts of varying lengths such as Paragraph to Sentence and Sentence to Phrase. Latent Semantic Analysis was used to evaluate the cross-level semantic relatedness between the texts to achieve above baseline sco...

With the continuous development of Internet technology, more and fields are beginning to use technology improve their business construction. Moreover, in terms e-government construction, introducing into work at all levels is also an important content, Party Central Committee has proposed a series major decisions such as network power “Internet +” accelerate process informatization. Meanwhile, ...

The basis for a broadened scanning framework is described which may also function as a means for understanding how human minds filter their perceptions of the world. The framework is based on the Four-Quadrant Integral model of Ken Wilber and the Spiral Dynamics model of Don Beck and Chris Cowan. An analytical tool (cross-level analysis) is presented for examining views of the world in terms of...

In railways, using a track- and ride-quality monitoring system on in-service train has become desirable for coordination security. Identification of the or train-related rough rides via crew can be estimated to nearest kilometre. However, if is equipped with better location track quality evaluation provided. These systems commonly use information such as GNSS and/or an odometer provide informat...
