3. An Update to the Minho Quotation Resource

Author

Drury, Brett and Drury, Samuel Morais

Subjects
Computer Science - Computation and Language, I.2.7
Abstract

The Minho Quotation Resource was originally released in 2012. It provided approximately 500,000 quotes from business leaders, analysts and politicians that spanned the period from 2008 to 2012. The original resource had several failings which include a large number of missing job titles and affiliations as well as unnormalised job titles which produced a large variation in spellings and formats of the same employment position. Also, there were numerous duplicate posts. This update has standardised the job title text as well as the imputation of missing job titles and affiliations. Duplicate quotes have been deleted. This update also provides some metaphor and simile extraction as well as an emotion distribution of the quotes. This update has also replaced an antiquated version of Lucene index with a JSONL format as well as a rudimentary interface that can query the data supplied with the resource. It is hoped that this update will encourage the study of business communication in a time of a financial crisis., Comment: 10 pages

Abstract

Autonomous robotics and artificial intelligence techniques can be used to support human personnel in the event of critical incidents. These incidents can pose great danger to human life. Some examples of such assistance include: multi-robot surveying of the scene; collection of sensor data and scene imagery, real-time risk assessment and analysis; object identification and anomaly detection; and retrieval of relevant supporting documentation such as standard operating procedures (SOPs). These incidents, although often rare, can involve chemical, biological, radiological/nuclear or explosive (CBRNE) substances and can be of high consequence. Real-world training and deployment of these systems can be costly and sometimes not feasible. For this reason, we have developed a realistic 3D model of a CBRNE scenario to act as a testbed for an initial set of assisting AI tools that we have developed., Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1806.04497

Abstract

Accidents and attacks that involve chemical, biological, radiological/nuclear or explosive (CBRNE) substances are rare, but can be of high consequence. Since the investigation of such events is not anybody's routine work, a range of AI techniques can reduce investigators' cognitive load and support decision-making, including: planning the assessment of the scene; ongoing evaluation and updating of risks; control of autonomous vehicles for collecting images and sensor data; reviewing images/videos for items of interest; identification of anomalies; and retrieval of relevant documentation. Because of the rare and high-risk nature of these events, realistic simulations can support the development and evaluation of AI-based tools. We have developed realistic models of CBRNE scenarios and implemented an initial set of tools., Comment: 27th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI), Stockholm, Sweden

Abstract

Urbanism is no longer planned on paper thanks to powerful models and 3D simulation platforms. However, current work is not open to the public and lacks an optimisation agent that could help in decision making. This paper describes the creation of an open-source simulation based on an existing Dutch liveability score with a built-in AI module. Features are selected using feature engineering and Random Forests. Then, a modified scoring function is built based on the former liveability classes. The score is predicted using Random Forest for regression and achieved a recall of 0.83 with 10-fold cross-validation. Afterwards, Exploratory Factor Analysis is applied to select the actions present in the model. The resulting indicators are divided into 5 groups, and 12 actions are generated. The performance of four optimisation algorithms is compared, namely NSGA-II, PAES, SPEA2 and backslashepsilon -MOEA, on three established criteria of quality: cardinality, the spread of the solutions, spacing, and the resulting score and number of turns. Although all four algorithms show different strengths, backslashepsilon -MOEA is selected to be the most suitable for this problem. Ultimately, the simulation incorporates the model and the selected AI module in a GUI written in the Kivy framework for Python. Tests performed on users show positive responses and encourage further initiatives towards joining technology and public applications.

44. Trabeculectomy bleb needling and antimetabolite administration practices in the UK: a glaucoma specialist national survey.

Author

Mercieca, Karl, Drury, Brett, Bhargava, Archana, and Fenerty, Cecilia

Abstract

Aims To evaluate, describe and quantify the diversity in postoperative antimetabolite administration and bleb needling practices among glaucoma specialists performing trabeculectomy surgery within the UK and Ireland. Methods A cross-sectional online survey was distributed to all consultant glaucoma specialists who are on the United Kingdom and Eire Glaucoma Society (UKEGS) contact list. Participants were asked specifc questions about their current practices for post- trabeculectomy antimetabolite administration followed by questions directly related to bleb needling procedures. results 60 (83%) of UKEGS glaucoma subspecialty consultants completed the survey. 70% of respondents administered 5-fuorouracil (5-FU) in their clinic room while 30% used a separate treatment room. Doses of 5-FU varied considerably but 70% used 5 mg as standard. Techniques used to reduce corneal toxicity included precipitation with amethocaine (44%) or benoxinate (14%), saline wash (14%) and modifed injection technique (8%). Topical antibiotics and/or betadine were used to prevent infection following 5-FU injection in just over 50%. Bleb needling was exclusively performed in operating theatre by 56% of respondents and solely at the slit lamp in the clinic room by 12%. A further 30% used a combination of both theatre and outpatient clinic rooms. Anti-metabolites used were 5-FU (72%) and mitomycin C (22%) with 12% using either of the two substances. Conclusions There is a signifcantly wide variety of current practices for antimetabolite administration and bleb needling within the UK and Ireland. This may be infuenced by a glaucoma surgeon's specifc experience and audit results as well as particular clinical set-up, availability of antimetabolite and clinic room space. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

45. Predicting Market Direction from Direct Speech by Business Leaders

Author

Subjects

Abstract

Direct quotations from business leaders can communicate to the wider public the latent state of their organization as well as the beliefs of the organization's leaders. Candid quotes from business leaders can have dramatic effects upon the share price of their organization. For example, Gerald Ratner in 1991 stated that his company's products were crap and consequently his company (Ratners) lost in excess of 500 million pounds in market value. Information in quotes from business leaders can be used to make an estimation of the organization's immediate future financial prospects and therefore can form part of a trading strategy. This paper describes a contextual classification strategy to label direct quotes from business leaders contained in news stories. The quotes are labelled as either: 1. positive, 2. negative or 3. neutral. A trading strategy aggregates the quote classifications to issue a buy, sell or hold instruction. The quote based trading strategy is evaluated against trading strategies which are based upon whole news story classification on the NASDAQ market index. The evaluation shows a clear advantage for the quote classification strategy over the competing strategies.

Abstract

International audience; Quotations from financial leaders can have significant influence upon the immediate prospects of economic actors. Indiscreet or candid comments from senior business leaders have had detrimental effects upon their organizations. Established polarity classification techniques perform poorly when classifying quotations because they display a number of complex linguistic features and lack of training data. The proposed strategy segments the quotations by inferred "opinion maker" role and then applies individual polarity classification strategies to each group of the segmented quotations. This strategy demonstrates a clear advantage over applying classical classification techniques to the whole cor- pus of quotations. While modelling con- textual information with Random Forests based on a vector of unigrams plus the "opinion maker role" reaches a maximum F-measure of 52.85%, understanding the "bias" of the quotation maker previously based on its lexical usage allows 86.23% F-measure for "unbiased" quotations and 71.10% F-measure for "biased" quotations with the Naive Bayes classifier.
