An extension of the basic local independence model to multiple observed classifications

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract The basic local independence model (BLIM) is appropriate in situations where populations do not differ in the probabilities of the knowledge states and the probabilities of careless errors and lucky guesses of the items. In some situations, this is not the case. This work introduces the multiple observed classification local independence model

Parallel data compression [PDF]

, 1991
Data compression schemes remove data redundancy in communicated and stored data and increase the effective capacities of communication and storage devices. Parallel algorithms and implementations for textual data compression are surveyed.

Learning Convolutional Networks for Content-weighted Image Compression

, 2017
Lossy image compression is generally formulated as a joint rate-distortion optimization to learn encoder, quantizer, and decoder. However, the quantizer is non-differentiable, and discrete entropy estimation usually is required for rate control.

The Role of Language Dominance in Congruency Effects on Multi‐Word Unit Processing: Evidence From Early Bilinguals

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how the learner‐related factors of language dominance, encompassing language history, proficiency, use, and attitude, modulate congruency effects in multi‐word unit (MWU) processing among early bilinguals. Seventy Cantonese–Putonghua bilinguals completed lexical decision tasks measuring reaction time and accuracy for ...

Rhododendron diversity patterns provide new insights for conserving China's montane flora

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Integrating distribution, phylogenetic, and functional trait data for 603 Rhododendron species in China identified significant conservation hotspots of multidimensional diversity, particularly in the Hengduan Mountains. Climate seasonality and topographic heterogeneity jointly influenced these patterns; however, notable conservation gaps remained ...

Joint Denoising / Compression of Image Contours via Shape Prior and Context Tree

, 2017
With the advent of depth sensing technologies, the extraction of object contours in images---a common and important pre-processing step for later higher-level computer vision tasks like object detection and human action recognition---has become easier ...

How Well Do We Know How Others See Us? A Systematic Review of Meta‐Accuracy Across Relational Contexts, Research Foci, Attribute Domains, and Measurement Approaches

Journal of Personality, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Meta‐accuracy, the degree to which individuals accurately infer how others perceive them, is fundamental to social interactions. Yet the field draws on diverse methods across disciplines, and variation in conceptualizations and approaches has not been systematically captured.

DRASIC: Distributed Recurrent Autoencoder for Scalable Image Compression

, 2019
We propose a new architecture for distributed image compression from a group of distributed data sources. The work is motivated by practical needs of data-driven codec design, low power consumption, robustness, and data privacy. The proposed architecture,

Words After the Storm: Elite Rhetoric and the Limits of De‐Escalation in Postreferendum Catalonia

Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT When does a secessionist crisis end? What drives political elites to shift from hostility to moderation? This article examines the prospects of rhetorical de‐escalation in the aftermath of a secessionist dispute through the paradigmatic case of Catalonia.
