The low credibility accountability of companies carrying conventional accounting is the impact secular materialist capitalism. In fact, a form agent's responsibility to principal that must be maintained. Islam empha...

In 2007, suicide was the tenth leading cause of death in the U.S. Given the significance of this problem, suicide was the focus of the 2011 Informatics for Integrating Biology and the Bedside (i2b2) Natural Language Processing (NLP) shared task competition (track two). Specifically, the challenge concentrated on sentiment analysis, predicting the presence or absence of 15 emotions (labels) simu...

This paper deals with the discovery, representation, and use of lexical rules (LRs) during large-scale semi-automatic computational lexicon acquisition. The analysis is based on a set of LRs implemented and tested on the basis of Spanish and English businessand finance-related corpora. We show that, though the use of LRs is justified, they do not come costfree. Semi-automatic output checking is...

MOTIVATION The University of Minnesota Pathway Prediction System (UM-PPS) is a rule-based expert system to predict plausible biodegradation pathways for organic compounds. However, iterative application of these rules to generate biodegradation pathways leads to combinatorial explosion. We use data from known biotransformation pathways to rationally determine biotransformation priorities (relat...

The OPT submission to the Shared Task of the 2016 Conference on Natural Language Learning (CoNLL) implements a ‘classic’ pipeline architecture, combining binary classification of (candidate) explicit connectives, heuristic rules for non-explicit discourse relations, ranking and ‘editing’ of syntactic constituents for argument identification, and an ensemble of classifiers to assign discourse se...
