Most of these sentiment lexicons are general-purpose lexicons which assign a fixed polarity to every word. However, it has been noted that the polarity of words depends on both the aspect and domain, thus a general-purpose sentiment lexicon would not be able to accurately classify the sentiment of words. This paper proposes a method to automatically construct an aspect and domain sensitive sentiment lexicon which assigns polarity to a word depending on its aspect and domain, and make available Sentix which is an aspect and domain sensitive sentiment lexicon spanning over 200 product domains. Experimental results have shown that our lexicon produces significantly better results compared to other commonly used lexicons. We also observe the long tail distribution behavior of product aspects, and propose the possibility of aspect ranking by comparing the number of domains and number of sentiment words present for an aspect.","PeriodicalId":155588,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 24th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128146164","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The tool consists of three key methods: spatial change visualization, temporal change visualization, and similarity-based video retrieval. The first two methods provide the summarization of the long-term video that lets the user know where and when changes frequently occurred during a certain period, enabling the user to find an event of interest from the long-term video. In addition, with the third method, the user can search the video for a similar event, enabling the user to count events of interest and to observe distributions of such events. These methods are uniformly implemented using frame differences in 1-bit depth, making the implementation of these methods simple but efficient.","PeriodicalId":155588,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 24th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128336116","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a supervised extension of the Locality Preserving Projection algorithm and it aims to work in scenarios with within-class multimodality, which are those scenarios where the scattering of the patterns follows more than one modal distribution. Differently from the classical feature extraction techniques that build their solutions based on the whole dataset, the Class-dependent Locality Preserving Projections looks at each class separately, building a specific projection for each class. The proposed technique analyses a query pattern based on the output of each class and chooses the class that better fit the pattern. The experimental study shows that the Class-dependent Locality Preserving Projections is a feature extraction technique for general purposes, however, it is particularly well succeed when applied to within-class multimodal scenarios.","PeriodicalId":155588,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 24th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131842794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It computes the score of a document for a class by combining a bottom-up and a top-down propagation of activation in a very simple neural network. This system bridges a gap between Machine Learning methods and Information Retrieval since the bottom-up and the top-down propagations can be seen as the measures of the specificity and exhaustivity which underlie the models of relevance used in Information Retrieval. The system has been tested on the Reuters 21578 collection and in the context of an international challenge on large scale hierarchical text classification with corpus extracted from Dmoz and Wikipedia. Its comparison with other classification systems has shown its efficiency.","PeriodicalId":155588,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 24th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127992402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Each unit specifies a specific context for performing ontology maintenance, evolution and reasoning tasks, which nevertheless has to be combined with chunks of tasks performed in other units. The modularization task is affected by assumptions concerning the mutual relations between the domains covered by distinct units, as well as by the expressiveness of the language used for specifying knowledge in units and for connecting distinct units. This paper presents a tool for partitioning SHIQ ontologies into units. These units can be combined using subjective class-to-class correspondences, as well as by inter-unit link properties that can be subjected to cardinality restrictions, existential and universal quantifiers, be hierarchically related and be transitive. While the modularization algorithm incorporated in this tool implements a specific partitioning method, the underlying representation framework provides a range of modularization possibilities, from units connected via class correspondences, to highly intertwined units, combined with class correspondences and inter-unit properties associated with restrictions.","PeriodicalId":155588,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 24th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131583855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The quantitative hourglass model is then used to define a consistent probabilistic set of all thirteen Allen's relations.

Additionally, we estimate the reflectance of each vertex on the surface to support the case with varying reflectance. We also consider the difference between estimated and observed irradiance in our metric to further eliminate the boundary effect of texture changing or self-shadow. Experiments on both indoor and outdoor datasets illustrate the effectiveness of our metric. Our evaluation results are not only more accurate than the results of previous metrics, but also insensitive to the texture and shadow.","PeriodicalId":155588,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 24th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131606595","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The spatial organization of the different color regions also play an important role. In this paper, we propose and evaluate a new descriptor that combines information about color and about its spatial arrangement in an image. Moreover, the mechanism used to compute the descriptor provides support for partial matching of images and for the development of efficient retrieval systems. We first describe the spatial arrangement of the color regions using a topological graph, where vertices represent the color regions and edges represent connections between regions and also the color differences between them. To compute the descriptor from this graph representation we use the spectral graph theory, avoiding the need for direct graph comparison. We performed various experimental evaluations to compare the accuracy of our new descriptor with descriptors based only on color, based only on topological information and a combination of both.","PeriodicalId":155588,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 24th International Conference on Tools with Artificial Intelligence","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115945926","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
