2. 6. Semantic Spaces of Clinical Text : Leveraging Distributional Semantics for Natural Language Processing of Electronic Health Records

   Author : Aron Henriksson; Hercules Dalianis; Martin Duneld; Jussi Karlgren; Stockholms universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; distributional semantics; random indexing; semantic space; electronic health records; clinical text; synonyms; diagnosis codes; adverse drug reactions; Computer and Systems Sciences; data- och systemvetenskap; IT for health; IT för hälsa; datorlingvistik; Computational Linguistics; datalogi; Computer Science;

   Abstract : The large amounts of clinical data generated by electronic health record systems are an underutilized resource, which, if tapped, has enormous potential to improve health care. Since the majority of this data is in the form of unstructured text, which is challenging to analyze computationally, there is a need for sophisticated clinical language processing methods.

4. 7. Correct and Efficient Monte Carlo Inference for Universal Probabilistic Programming Languages

   Author : Daniel Lundén; David Broman; Lawrence Murray; Joakim Jaldén; Sam Staton; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Probabilistic programming languages; Compilers; Static program analysis; Monte Carlo inference; Operational semantics; Probabilistiska programmeringsspråk; Kompilatorer; Statisk programanalys; Monte Carlo-inferens; Operationell semantik; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

   Abstract : Probabilistic programming languages (PPLs) allow users to express statistical inference problems that the PPL implementation then, ideally, solves automatically. In particular, PPL users can focus on encoding their inference problems, and need not concern themselves with the intricacies of inference. READ MORE

5. 8. The Integration of MILLION into the English System of Number Words : A Diachronic Study

   Author : Donald MacQueen; Merja Kytö; Raymond Hickey; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; number-word universals; historical corpus linguistics; variationist study; American vs British English; newspapers; grammaticalization; iconicity; gradience; English language; Engelska språket; Linguistics; lingvistik;

   Abstract : This corpus-based variationist study traces the history of the English number word MILLION from its first attested use in the 14th century, focusing on the diachronic shift in function from one of heading its noun phrase (NP), as in the obsolescent (Obs) construction three millions of citizens, to one of a post-determiner of its NP head, as in Present-day English (PdE) three million citizens. The authentic historical materials used include both numerous electronic linguistic corpora and, more innovatively, very-large-scale general collections available online, especially historical newspaper collections from the US and UK comprising tens of billions of words.

6. 9. Scalable Validation of Data Streams

   Author : Cheng Xu; Tore Risch; Byung-Suk Lee; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Data Stream Management; Distributed Data Stream Processing; Data Stream Validation; Anomaly Detection; Datavetenskap med inriktning mot databasteknik; Computer Science with specialization in Database Technology;

   Abstract : In manufacturing industries, sensors are often installed on industrial equipment generating high volumes of data in real-time. For shortening the machine downtime and reducing maintenance costs, it is critical to analyze efficiently this kind of streams in order to detect abnormal behavior of equipment. READ MORE

7. 10. Ontology-based Analysis and Scalable Model Checking of Embedded Systems Models

   Author : Nesredin Mahmud; Cristina Seceleanu; Oscar Ljungkrantz; Guillermo Rodriguez-Navas; Riccardo Scandariato; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; requirements specification; embedded systems; ontology; formal methods; simulink; sat; domain specific language; requirements boilerplates; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

   Abstract : Currently, there is lack of effective and scalable methods to specify and ana-lyze requirements specifications, and verify the behavioral models of embed-ded systems. Most embedded systems requirements are expressed in naturallanguage which is flexible and intuitive but frequently ambiguous, vague andincomprehensive. READ MORE
