Scagnostics is a Tukey neologism for the term scatterplot diagnostics. Scagnostics are characterizations of the 2D distributions of orthogonal pairwise projections of a set of points in multidimensional Euclidean space. These characterizations include such measures as density, skewness, shape, outliers, and texture. We introduce a set of scagnostics measures based on graph theory and we analyze...

Crowdsourcing is a neologism coined as a portmanteau of crowd and outsourcing by Howe and defined as ”outsourcing a job traditionally performed by a designated agent to an undefined, generally large group of people in the form of an open call” [1] . The crowdsourcing paradigm is introduced to a plethora of disciplines, but its potential applications in telecommunications, in particular for the ...

The exponential growth of the Persian blogosphere and the increased number of neologisms create a major challenge in NLP applications of Persian blogs. This paper describes a method for extracting and classifying newly constructed words and borrowings from Persian blog posts. The analysis of the occurrence of neologisms across five distinct topic categories points to a correspondence between th...

IntroductIon For many decades, organization scientists have paid considerable attention to the link between knowledge and organization structure. An early contributor to these discussions was Max Weber (1922), who elaborated his concepts of professional bureaucracy. History shows a multitude of other descriptions and propositions which depict knowledge-friendly organization structures such as t...

What do you do when you need to find terminology in a foreign language and available bilingual sources are of no help at all? With the fast-growing complexity in all fields of knowledge and the parallel creation of neologisms needed to distribute the new knowledge, dictionaries and term databases are lagging behind, in particular when you work with two less widely spoken languages. This paper i...

In this paper we introduce Onoma, a new conjugating tool which is available online. Onoma generates and analyses both existing verbs and Spanish verb neologisms. This application of finite state transducers was evaluated against other online conjugators and also on a database consisting of 15.367 verbs containing 4,307 neologisms.

Aiming at modeling uncertain digital materials in the network society, we de ne the security token, which is abbreviated into a word coinage setok. Each setok has its explicit price, explicit values, and timestamp on it as well as the main contents. The values are uncertain and may cause risks. Several important properties of the setok are de ned. Then, in order to provide risk-hedging opportun...

While it is generally known that the word terrorism originated in French Revolution, exact circumstances of its emergence are much less known. First used publicly by Tallien, neologism had actually been shaped Pierre-Louis Roederer. From outset, latter given a conceptual scope integrating into reflection on characteristics use terror for political purposes.

Spoken language is an important form of human communication. The capacity to learn new spoken words is a basic brain function for any individual during the life span. With exponential growth of information exchange, people encounter a large amount of novel words, such as neologism (e.g., Google), jargon (e.g., app), and terminology (e.g., optogenetics). In experimental contexts, word-like pseud...

The problem of blend formation in generative linguistics is interesting in the context of neologism, their quick adoption in modern life and the creative generative process guiding their formation. Blend quality depends on multitude of factors with high degrees of uncertainty. In this work, we investigate if the modern neural network models can sufficiently capture and recognize the creative bl...
