Full textAbstract:
This article questions the aptness of ‘discourse analysis’ as a label for our field, and prefers the less reductionist concept of ‘Discourse Interpretation’. It does this through drawing on ideas from the field of philosophical hermeneutics – the theory and practice of interpreting texts. It operationalizes and adapts the construct of the Interpretive Arc from the philosophy of Paul Ricoeur in order to address issues that are central to discourse work, including that of how we warrant the validity of our textual interpretations. The Interpretive Arc consists of six inter-linked phases, which the article presents and exemplifies through discussion of a single text – the story of Babel. Phase 1 of the arc defines readers as being in a state of Estrangement before the text because of the distancing created by its written or technological form. Phase 2 is that of Pre-view, the state of opinion or knowledge that readers bring to a text. At phase 3, a first reading forms readers’ Proto-understanding, their initial ‘guess’ at what the text means. Then processes of Analysis (phase 4) test and evidence the validity of alternative readings, limiting the interpretations which can plausibly be taken from a text. Three byways of interpretive analysis are challenged and discarded: the dominance of author intention, structuralist analysis and limitless polysemy. Analysis then leads into 5, the phase of informed Understanding of the matter or injunction of the text, of what is disclosed or unfolded before the text. The Interpretive Arc is completed in phase 6, Ownership. Here, through processes of critique of their own and the text’s ideologies and of fresh listening, readers are led to a new self formed by the matter of the text. There is a dialectic amongst Analysis, Understanding and Ownership, with each informing and modifying the other. The approach emphasizes interpretation as the heart of discourse work. The 3000-year-old narrative of Babel is a subject as well as an object here. It contributes to the matter of the article and its interpretation is interwoven with the theoretical substance. The story is shown to be an integrated narrative abounding in sophisticated linguistic techniques which show a delight in language. The traditional Christian and Western interpretation of Babel – as an affront to God which results in the curse of multilingualism – is challenged. A re-constructed interpretation informed by intertextual evidence reads the fault of Babel to be the people’s refusal to spread through the earth. Babel can be interpreted as a manifesto against the monolingual and monocultural impetus of empires ancient and contemporary. The multilingual outcome is a positive affirmation of sociocultural and linguistic diversity.

What is a nursing moment? This hermeneutic, phenomenological text describes the lived experience of a nursing moment as interpreted from 3 nurses’ stories that depict memorable experiences in their nursing practice. The themes that emerged are a moment of understanding, a moment of being present, a moment of comforting, a moment of touching, and a moment of encouraging. These moments reflect moments of genuine encounters, moments that may bring about profound changes in the lived experiences of patients. In the lived world of nurses, these moments may bring a sense of professional fulfillment and satisfaction.

Full textAbstract:
Ricoeur distinguishes between two forms of hermeneutics: a hermeneutics of faith which aims to restore meaning to a text and a hermeneutics of suspicion which attempts to decode meanings that are disguised. In this paper, his distinction is applied to interpretive stances in narrative research. From the point of view of a hermeneutics of faith, the interpretive effort is to examine the various messages inherent in an interview text, giving “voice” in various ways to the participant(s), while the researcher working from the vantage point of the hermeneutics of suspicion problematizes the participants' narrative and “decodes” meaning beyond the text. Examples are offered of narrative research from each point of view and the implications of working from each stance are explored. Each interpretive position also effects both reflexivity and ethics, and these matters are also discussed. Finally, the implications and possiblities of combining these interpretive positions are considered. (Hermeneutics, Ricoeur, Narrative Analysis, Interpretive Stance, Reflexivity)

This article outlines some preliminary research into the learning discourses of computer and video games, as expressed through the printed materials that accompany games, and the instructional elements built into game narratives. This leads to discussion of an interesting methodological dilemma — how does the interpretative ethnographic researcher analyse this content when he or she becomes part of the playing process? How do you analyse the learning mechanisms of games when you are being reflexively engaged in the training materials and systems mapped into the text by the games' designers? This article examines this ‘crisis of representation’ in interpretive ethnographic research approaches to games research.

Full textAbstract:
While the concept of resemiosis is critical in multimodal analyses, in practice the focus often falls on understanding the individual semiotic resources in use and their interaction (intersemiosis). This paper uses the framework developed by Martin and White (2005) of affect (how do we feel about the images), judgement (how is this influenced by the social norms in use) and appreciation (how do we read the image) in order to structure an analysis of resemiosis. This forces attention to how judgemental this process is, what type of assumptions are made by the observer and how the observer’s interpretation may vary from that of the original creator.This paper studies a two frame cartoon and considers how we might evaluate this using the concepts of affect, judgement and appreciation. In this case, the reader of the cartoon is clearly meant to identify positively with the second interaction (both what is being said and how). However, it is worthwhile to note that in both frames, the street sweeper is presented completely passively – either as an object of pity or to be helped – lacking any agency in their own respect.By taking full account of the concepts of appreciation and judgement, this allows us to also consider if there are other interpretive frameworks. These may lead the observer to read the image in a manner very different to that intended by the original author.

Full textAbstract:
The paper features the role of the author's image as a factor that determines the variable functioning of the text in the process of its interpretation by a native speaker. A linguistic experiment conducted by the author revealed semantic versions of the source text as a result of the influence of the author's image on the interpreting activity of the addressee. The image of the author is viewed as a portrait of a political leader modeled by the addressee and his or her communicative intentions on the basis of the analysis of interpretive texts as the result of perception and interpretation of the source text. The research proves that the image of the author influences the addressee’s interpretation of the text. The author used the method of linguistic analysis to prove that the image of the author of the political text is shaped in mundane political consciousness under the impact of various factors and influences mundane linguistic consciousness and the interpreting activity of the addressee. This is confirmed by the fact that the same text, attributed to different politicians, received different interpretations depending on how the recipient perceived the politician designated as the author of the text.

Full textAbstract:
Two closely-linked problems—one textual, the other interpretive—have long bedevilled readers of Horace Carm. 4.2.45-52. The first involves the text of line 49, which was conjecturally emended in the OCT of Wickham and Garrod, and has actually been obelised by Shackleton Bailey in his Teubner. The second problem concerns the addressee of o Sol pulcher, o laudande in lines 46-7.I would like in this essay, first, to discuss the spectrum of emendations proposed for line 49; second, to sketch out a structural analysis of the entire ode, into which lines 45-52 will fit sensibly; and third, to offer a new rhetorical analysis that will make sense of the poem overall and (particularly) of the text I have adopted for the lemma. This analysis is fundamentally linked to the interpretation of Sol in line 46, as we shall see.

Full textAbstract:
This study tends to present a vision about the linguistic importance of the text as being an interpretive and analytical aspect. This study will specifically be centered on the Quranic text. It will give a new interpretation to the text for a better understanding of the Holy Quran. This interpretation will be different from the traditional approaches and analysis made by the traditional domains of knowledge within the sciences of the Holy Quran.
 In addition, the study aims to demystify some problematic interpretations provided by researchers and specialists. Due to the uncertainty of some researchers, they became skeptic about the unity of the Quranic text. They also became skeptic about the interpretive approaches proposed by the interpreters and the specialists of the Quranic text

Full textAbstract:
AbstractFollowing Blommaert (2005), this paper examines what he calls a ‘forgotten’ context within Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) and Conversation Analysis (CA) – that of text trajectories. For Blommaert, a limitation of both CDA and CA is their focus on “the unique, one-time” instance of a given text and, by extension, the (limited) context associated with such an instance of text. Such a focus, according to Blommaert, ignores a salient feature of communication in contemporary societies – the fact that texts and discourses move around, are repeatedly recontextualized in new interpretive spaces, and in the process undergo significant transformations in meaning. The text trajectory investigated in this paper begins in a legal institution, more specifically, with a 2004 American rape trial, Maouloud Baby v. the State of Maryland. This legal case garnered much media attention and, as a result of such exposure, references to the case have appeared in both mainstream and social media outlets. Hence, as a ‘text’ that has displayed considerable movement across different contexts within the legal system and, subsequently, beyond the legal system to mainstream and popular forms of media, the Maouloud Baby trial constitutes fertile ground for the exploration of a text's trajectory. Indeed, in keeping with Blommaert's claims, I show how this trial's ‘text’ undergoes significant transformations in meaning as it is recontextualized in different kinds of interpretive spaces (both within the legal system and outside of it) and how these transformations in meaning reproduce larger patterns of gendered inequalities.

Full textAbstract:
This article reports on a study that engaged graduate students from one Canadian university in a knowledge creation project, which produced new evidence and insights regarding pressing socio-political issues of our time. This study resulted in the creation of an instructional application known as the IIF (the Interpretive Imagination Forum), a collaborative video research application for use in higher education courses across the disciplines (e.g., anthropology, history, media studies, philosophy, queer studies, sociology, women's studies). Further, this study resulted in the development of a technology-mediated, hermeneutic tagging technique. IIF was developed as an open-source platform for conducting video research. In keeping with open-source curriculum objectives (OSC), a curriculum framework was developed, which can be used in graduate-level courses (e.g., curriculum foundations, qualitative methodology, critical inquiry). Student participants were invited to add, delete, and modify text annotations or tags, which not only resulted in broader understandings of the themes, theories, and concepts that existed within the videotaped content, but also resulted in the development of a creative and innovative instructional and learning tool. The overarching objective of this study was to circumvent linear or normative qualitative analysis and instead facilitate non-linear, creative, and organic approaches to understanding, analyzing, representing, and disseminating theories and concepts derived from video scholarship.

Full textAbstract:
Thesis (M.S.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 1998.<br>Includes bibliographical references (p. 153-160).<br>Beyan-ı Menazil (1537) is one of the most distinguished illustrated manuscripts of Ottoman art. It marks the transition from an exclusive textual historiography to one which includes illustrations. It contains 109 folios containing over 130 illustrations connected with Sultan Siileyman's campaign of 1533-1535 against the Safavids. This paper investigates the use of visual conventions in the illustrations. Conventions such as multiple views and connecting element? are used to indicate the itinerary and construct a narrative. Thus the illustrations of Beyan-ı Menazil is a second text. Furthermore, the illustrations themselves use conventions as representation types. These representation types and their variations are, in all probability, a transfiguration of actual field notes. Thus the illustrations of Beyan-ı Menazil are themselves the translation of text into image. The field notes and other elements also exhibit that the use of types is not merely a representational device; it in all probability extended into the actual survey - it was the very mode of observation. The use of representation types and its variations also not only allows specific correspondence with the actual buildings, but raises also the possibility of various observers, and artists involved in the production of the manuscript. Close scrutiny of the use of perspective raises the possibility that there were more than one artist; and probably an atelier involved, in the production of Beyan-ı Menazil. By demonstrating the use of representational types, and the translation of texts (such as field notes) into images, this paper offers a new insight into Beyan-ı Menazil.<br>M.S.

Full textAbstract:
Building on the assumption that the image of China within the Swedish state is pluralist, the aim of this study is to explore this plurality through the lens of Pan Chengxin’s paradigms “China threat” and “China opportunity”. A second aim is to contribute to the theory by applying it in a different context compared to where it originated. This is explored through the method of frame analysis and interpretive text analysis. The study shows that the image is indeed pluralist and differs between entities. Frames that are commonly used by one entity are non-existent in texts by another. There are also differences in emphasis within frames and within entities. Understanding how China is framed and imagined in different parts of the Swedish state can be useful in itself as it helps us understand that the relationship between Sweden and China is complex and dynamic. Furthermore, the study shows that while Pan’s paradigms can be a useful outset point, one cannot understand the Swedish image of China without also looking beyond them. The Swedish China image holds nuances unaccounted for by the theory, particularly in the perception of China as heterogenous to a higher extent than anticipated.

Full textAbstract:
The humanities have for a long time been a collection of fields that have not gained from the advancements in computational power, as predicted by Moore´s law. Fields like medicine, biology, physics, chemistry, geology and economics have all developed quantitative tools that take advantage of the exponential increase of processing power over time. Recent advances in computerized pattern recognition, in combination with a rapid digitization of historical document collections around the world, is about to change this. The first part of this dissertation focuses on constructing a full system for finding handwritten words in historical manuscripts. A novel segmentation algorithm is presented, capable of finding and separating text lines in pre-modern manuscripts. Text recognition is performed by translating the image data of the text lines into sequences of numbers, called features. Commonly used features are analysed and evaluated on manuscript sources from the Uppsala University library Carolina Rediviva and the US Library of Congress. Decoding the text in the vast number of photographed manuscripts from our libraries makes computational linguistics and social network analysis directly applicable to historical sources. Hence, text recognition is considered a key technology for the future of computerized research methods in the humanities. The second part of this thesis addresses digital palaeography, using a computers superior capacity for endlessly performing measurements on ink stroke shapes. Objective criteria of character shapes only partly catches what a palaeographer use for assessing similarity. The palaeographer often gets a feel for the scribe's style. This is, however, hard to quantify. A method for identifying the scribal hands of a pre-modern copy of the revelations of saint Bridget of Sweden, using semi-supervised learning, is presented. Methods for production year estimation are presented and evaluated on a collection with close to 11000 medieval charters. The production dates are estimated using a Gaussian process, where the uncertainty is inferred together with the most likely production year. In summary, this dissertation presents several novel methods related to image analysis and machine learning. In combination with recent advances of the field, they enable efficient computational analysis of very large collections of historical documents.<br>q2b

Seguindo uma pista lançada pelo próprio Proust num texto crítico sobre a leitura, a crítica proustiana vem dedicando bastante espaço à compreensão deste tema na Recherche. Em geral, essa compreensão tem sido levada a cabo por meio da análise das figurações da leitura no romance de modo a construir o posicionamento teórico do escritor sobre a leitura que, por sua vez, funcionaria como modelo para a leitura da própria Recherche. Entretanto, essas análises apontam para incoerências e contradições que potencialmente poderiam invalidar seu caráter de modelo. Revisitando algumas das interpretações críticas bem como o próprio ensaio de Proust sobre a questão, esta tese defende que a compreensão da leitura da Recherche vai além da discussão da figuração do tema no texto. Para isso, propõe a análise do papel do leitor dimensão textual virtual que comporta diversas operações interpretativas potenciais. Controladas pela organização do texto, isto é, por sua disposição arquitetônica, em seus mais diversos planos, essas operações, uma vez percebidas pelos leitores (o que não se deu imediatamente na história da recepção da Recherche) sustentam essas leituras (críticas ou não) de modo que podem ser vistas como a base ou as condições de possibilidade de toda e qualquer interpretação.<br>Following the clue given by Proust himself on his essay on reading, recently, proustian critics have been paying a lot of attention to this theme in A la Recherche. In general, these interpretations analyse the figurations of reading in the text which, in turn, is used as a model for the reading of Prousts text. However, many of these analyses point out to incoherencies in Prousts theoretical discourse which can invalidate its status as a model for the reader. Revisiting some of the analyses on the topic and Prousts own essay On reading, this thesis tries to indicate that the understanding of the subject of reading should move beyond the discussion of its figuration in the text. In order to do that, we propose an analysis of the role of the reader a virtual textual dimension formed by the interpretive operations designed by the text itself. Controlled by the organization of the materials that form the text, these operations, once perceived by the reader, support many of the critical readings of Prousts text and so, they are, as it seems, the foundations for most of the readings of A la Recherche.

Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2005.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: With the emergence of the global village concept over the last two decades, the
role of the act of translation has increased in importance. As people became
aware of the value and significance of texts in foreign languages, it ignited an
interest in the act of translation. Translations were no longer regarded as
inferior, but rather worthy of study.
Prior to the emergence of interest in translation, the translation process had
received little attention, but now slowly became the focus point as researchers
sought to unravel its idiosyncrasies. No longer were researchers merely
prepared to accept the fruits of the process, but they questioned how the
process came about, why it happened and which circumstances, both internal
and external, influenced it.
This research set out to investigate the similarities and differences between
sports texts originally written in Afrikaans and translated sports texts that were
translated from English into Afrikaans. Prior research on this topic had pointed
to a marked lexical difference between original and translated texts. It was
further postulated that the differences and similarities were caused by the
translation process itself and were inherent to it. The current research
attempted to determine these similarities and differences by means of an
electronic lexical analysis of the original and translated corpora using
Wordsmith Tools.
The results confirmed the findings done in prior research, namely that there
were lexical differences between original and translated texts. This study
indicated that the differences were not significant for the study at hand. It
further indicated that the reason for the lack of a significant difference was due
to the common nature of the subject matter and a large degree of shared
information. It was further suggested that the statistics could have been different if the commonality of topic had not been present. Further research
would need to be undertaken by expanding the size and scope of the corpora
so as to be able to reach conclusions based on a greater variety of texts. At the
same time this research suggested that a qualitative analysis of the texts should
be done to support the quantitative findings of the research.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: As gevolg van die snelle ontwikkeling in kommunikasie oor die laaste twee
dekades, het die rol van vertaling van groter belang geword. Soos mense die
waarde en belangrikheid van tekste in vreemde tale agtergekom het, het daar
nuwe belangstelling in die proses van vertaling ontstaan. Vertaalde tekste is
nie meer as minderwaardig geag nie, maar het nou die teiken van navorsing
geword.
Voor die nuwe belangstelling in vertaling posgevat het, het die proses van
vertaling min aandag gekry, maar dit het stadig maar seker die fokuspunt van
navorsers geword wat die eienaardighede van die proses wou ontrafel.
Navorsers was nie meer tevrede met net die produk nie, maar het die proses
ook ondersoek en wou weet waarom die proses op 'n sekere wyse plaasgevind
het en watter omstandighede, intern sowel as ekstern, 'n invloed daarop
uitgeoefen het.
Hierdie navorsing het ten doelom die ooreenkomste en verskille tussen
sporttekste wat oorspronklik in Afrikaans geskryf is en tekste wat uit Engels
vertaal is, te ondersoek. Vorige navorsing op dié gebied het daarop gedui dat
daar waarneembare verskille tussen vertaalde en oorspronklike tekste is en dat
die verskille aan die proses self toegeskryf kan word en dat dit inherent deel is
daarvan. Huidige navorsing het ten doelom die moontlike ooreenkomste en
verskille vas te stel met behulp van 'n elektroniese leksikale ontleding van die
oorspronklike en vertaalde korpora met behulp van Wordsmith Tools.
Die bevindings van hierdie navorsing het die vorige navorsingsresultate
bevestig, naamlik dat vertaalde en oorspronklike tekste op leksikale vlak verskil.
Die huidige navorsing het egter aangetoon dat die verskille nie beduidend is hierdie studie ontleed is. Dit het verder aangedui dat die rede hiervoor
toegeskryf kan word aan die gemeenskaplikheid van die materiaal en die groot
hoeveelheid gedeelde inligting. Die navorsing het ook aangedui dat die
statistiek moontlik sou verskil het indien die gemeenskaplikheid nie teenwoordig
was nie. Verdere navorsing moet onderneem word deur die grootte en omvang
van die korpora uit te brei sodat afleidings gemaak kan word met behulp van 'n
groter verskeidenheid tekste. Terselfdertyd het die navorser aanbeveel dat
kwalitatiewe navorsing van die tekste uitgevoer word om die bevindinge van die
kwantitatiewe navorsing te ondersteun.

The purpose of this chapter is to become a guide for future research agenda that allows researchers in marketing and other disciplines to find a way to drive research studies in consumer behavior. The text provides an interpretative analysis of the latest editorials, reviews and research articles published in top-tier consumer research journals. Journals such as the International Journal of Consumer Studies, Journal of Consumer Affairs, Journal of Consumer Behavior, Journal of Consumer Culture, Journal of Consumer Psychology, Journal of Consumer Research, and Psychology & Marketing among others were selected to offer a broad view of the challenges and research opportunities in this growing research area. Analyzed papers have been grouped by common topics into five theoretical streams (homoeconomicus, psychodynamic, behavioral, cognitive, and humanistic) and two methodological perspectives (positivist, interpretive). Results suggest strong affinity in recent papers to cognitive-humanistic-interpretive research focus, with online consumer behavior, transformative and culture consumer behavior and green consumption as main and commonly treated topics. Conclusions and future perspectives on consumer behavior research are, also presented.

Full textAbstract:
Ryan Cordell, Benjamin Doyle, and Elizabeth Hopwood’s essay seizes a nineteenth-century invention, the kaleidoscope, as a model and metaphor for pedagogical practices and learning spaces that encourage play and experimentation. Through examples that involve setting letterpress type, the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) encoding of nineteenth-century texts as an interpretive process, and the collaborative creation of Wikipedia pages, the authors describe how experiments with contemporary technologies help students claim scholarly agency over the texts and tools central to their study of the nineteenth century. Kaleidoscopic pedagogy encourages students to discover how C19 competencies like close reading and contemporary methods of coding and data analysis have the potential to be mutually constitutive, inspiring a more nuanced understanding of both periods.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter considers how intersectional claims are established in practice. The chapter thus traverses the labyrinth of discrimination law to understand how each of its central features interacts with and processes an intersection claim. In particular, it considers the significance of the text of equality guarantees, the basis of selection of grounds generally and specifically in claims of intersectional discrimination, the distinction between direct and indirect intersectional discrimination, the test for wrongful intersectional discrimination, the use of comparators, justification analysis, standards of review, the burden of proof, and choice of remedies. Comparative doctrine helps to unravel the complex issues pertaining to each and helps to underscore the interpretive possibilities which help realize intersectional discrimination.

Full textAbstract:
The chapter proposes a discourse analysis of the Armenian Genocide Orphans’ Aram Bezikian Museum (Lebanon) through the lens of minority studies. The museum embraces the identity of Lebanese-Armenians and primarily highlights the legacy of the genocide orphans. The text explores how the identity of the Armenian minority is negotiated within the Lebanese context by examining some of the region’s historical and socio-political components. The museum discourse is then analysed by recounting the permanent exhibition’s storyline and its scenography symbolism. Finally, the paper evaluates the museum’s success in creating dialogue spaces by studying its audience. It becomes evident, throughout the investigation, that the museum not only raises awareness on the significance of the Armenian Genocide, but also strives to make its audience reflect upon questions of identities, and leaves the space open for interpretive, moral and spiritual considerations and enquiries raised by historical war crimes and differences within a society.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter positions the use of machine learning within the digital humanities as part of a wider movement that nostalgically seeks to return literary criticism to the structuralist era, to a moment characterized by belief in systems, structure, and the transparency of language. While digital methods enable one to examine radically larger archives than those assembled in the past, a transformation that Matthew Jockers characterizes as a shift from micro to macroanalysis, the fundamental assumptions about texts and meaning implicit in these tools and in the criticism resulting from the use of these tools belong to a much earlier period of literary analysis. The author argues that the use of imported tools and procedures within literary and cultural criticism on the part of some digital humanists in the present is an attempt to separate methodology from interpretation. In the process, these critics have deemphasized the degree to which methodology participates in interpretation. The chapter closes by way of a return to the deconstructive critique of structuralism in order to highlight the ways in which numerous interpretive decisions are suppressed in the selection, encoding, and preprocessing of digitized textual sources for text mining and machine learning analysis.

The genomics era has presented many new high throughput experimental modalities that are capable of producing large amounts of data on comprehensive sets of genes. In time there will certainly be many more new techniques that explore new avenues in biology. In any case, textual analysis will be an important aspect of the analysis. The body of the peer-reviewed scientific text represents all of our accomplishments in biology, and it plays a critical role in hypothesizing and interpreting any data set. To altogether ignore it is tantamount to reinventing the wheel with each analysis. The volume of relevant literature approaches proportions where it is all but impossible to manually search through all of it. Instead we must often rely on automated text mining methods to access the literature efficiently and effectively. The methods we present in this book provide an introduction to the avenues that one can employ to include text in a meaningful way in the analysis of these functional genomics data sets. They serve as a complement to the statistical methods such as classification and clustering that are commonly employed to analyze data sets. We are hopeful that this book will serve to encourage the reader to utilize and further develop text mining in their own analyses.

Full textAbstract:
Current text mining applications statistically work on the basis of linguistic models and theories and certain parameter settings. This enables researchers to classify, group and rank a large textual corpus – a useful feature for scholars who study all forms of written text. However, these underlying conditions differ in respect to the way how interpretively-oriented social scientists approach textual data. They aim to understand the meaning of text by heuristically using known categorisations, concepts and other formal methods. More importantly, they are primarily interested in documents that are incomprehensible with our current knowledge because these documents offer a chance to formulate new empirically-grounded typifications, hypotheses, and theories. In this paper, therefore, I propose for a text mining technique with different aims and procedures. It includes a shift away from methods of grouping and clustering the whole text corpus to a process that sorts out uncategorisable documents. Such an approach will be demonstrated using a simple example. While more elaborate text mining techniques might become tools for more complex tasks, the given example just presents the essence of a possible working principle. As such, it supports social inquiries that search for and examine unfamiliar patterns and regularities.

This paper provides a mapping of common conceptual difficulties in learning fundamentals of engineering analysis from two different core courses in mechanical engineering—fluid mechanics and statics. For analysis, examples from actual test questions and student performance on them are presented with interpretations of the subject areas and source of difficulties. Properly designed multiple choice questions can provide an effective evaluation of student comprehension. The paper discusses the structure of good questions, and describes how improperly designed questions may hinder learning and accurate assessment.

Full textAbstract:
The offshore environment contains many sources of cyclic loading. Standard design S-N curves, such as those in DNVGL-RP-C203, are usually assigned to ensure a particular design life can be achieved for a particular set of anticipated loading conditions. Girth welds are often the ‘weak link’ in terms of fatigue strength and so it is important to show that girth welds made using new procedures for new projects that are intended to be used in fatigue sensitive risers or flowlines do indeed have the required fatigue performance. Alternatively, designers of new subsea connectors, used for example in tendons for tension leg platforms, mooring applications or well-heads which will experience cyclic loading in service, also wish to verify the fatigue performance of their new designs. Often operators require contractors to carry out resonance fatigue tests on representative girth welds in order to show that girth welds made using new procedures qualify to the required design S-N curve. Operators and contractors must then interpret the results, which is not necessarily straightforward if the fatigue lives are lower than expected. Many factors influence a component’s fatigue strength so there is usually scatter in results obtained when a number of fatigue tests are carried out on real, production standard components. This scatter means that it is important first to carry out the right number of tests in order to obtain a reasonable understanding of the component’s fatigue strength, and then to interpret the fatigue test results properly. A working knowledge of statistics is necessary for both specifying the test programme and interpreting the test results and there is often confusion over various aspects of test specification and interpretation. This paper describes relevant statistical concepts in a way that is accessible to non-experts and that can be used, practically, by designers. The paper illustrates the statistical analysis of test data with examples of the ‘target life’ approach (that is now included in BS7608:2014 + A1) and the equivalent approach in DNVGL-RP-C203, which uses the stress modification factor. It gives practical examples to designers of a pragmatic method that can be used when specifying test programmes and interpreting the results obtained from tests carried out during qualification programmes, which for example, aim to determine whether girth welds made using a new procedure qualify to a particular design curve. It will help designers who are tasked with specifying test programmes to choose a reasonable number of test specimens and stress ranges, and to understand the outcome when results have been obtained.

"Recommendation vs Sentiment Analysis: A Text-Driven Latent Factor Model for Rating Prediction with Cold-Start Awareness." In Twenty-Sixth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence. International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence Organization, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.24963/ijcai.2017/382.
Full textAbstract:
Review rating prediction is an important research topic. The problem was approached from either the perspective of recommender systems (RS) or that of sentiment analysis (SA). Recent SA research using deep neural networks (DNNs) has realized the importance of user and product interaction for better interpreting the sentiment of reviews. However, the complexity of DNN models in terms of the scale of parameters is very high, and the performance is not always satisfying especially when user-product interaction is sparse. In this paper, we propose a simple, extensible RS-based model, called Text-driven Latent Factor Model (TLFM), to capture the semantics of reviews, user preferences and product characteristics by jointly optimizing two components, a user-specific LFM and a product-specific LFM, each of which decomposes text into a specific low-dimension representation. Furthermore, we address the cold-start issue by developing a novel Pairwise Rating Comparison strategy (PRC), which utilizes the difference between ratings on common user/product as supplementary information to calibrate parameter estimation. Experiments conducted on IMDB and Yelp datasets validate the advantage of our approach over state-of-the-art baseline methods.

The paper describes a project of automatic selection, scraping, and full-text analysis of contracts in the area of IT and Information Systems. The purpose of the project was to extract manday prices and build the list of usual manday prices for particular roles that are stated in the contracts. The list aims to provide a foundation for sizing of new IT solutions before the public tender for an association of major state institutions of the Czech Republic. The result of the research is the list of usual prices for the specified roles, including blended rate, based on median and interval between quartiles, all with demonstrable links to origin contracts. The discussion states additional social factors to be considered when interpreting and using the resulting list, like the subjective influence of validators, tendency for generalization, or defensive attitude of affected vendors.

Information technologies bring into view not only ideas and their transmission via electronic devices, but also means of expression and the meanings they assume for readers / listeners / viewers. This transformation -- from information through technology to expressions and their meanings -- is an intrinsic part of any electronically mediated communication. This project explores one such electronically mediated text, Tango Finlandia, a segment of the popular American news program, 60 Minutes, as it has been broadcast and discussed prominently in the United States and Finland. Analyses of exchanges between Finnish and American students demonstrate how the "exact same" televisual information and the "exact same" English words convey information that is transformed into two different expressive systems with very different cultural meanings.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Photon Emission Microscopy is the most widely used mainstream defect isolation technique in failure analysis labs. It is easy to perform and has a fast turnaround time for results. However, interpreting a photon emission micrograph to postulate the suspected defect site accurately is challenging when there are multiple abnormal hotspots and driving nets involved. This is commonly encountered in dynamic emission micrographs that are caused by open defects in digital logic. This paper presents a methodology incorporating layout-aware trace analysis and post schematic extraction with test bench analysis to enhance the diagnostic resolution on the suspected defective net(s).
