Gaining historical perspective on political fact-checking : the experience of the United States by Cortada, James W., Aspray, William

“…The paper identifies six historical factors that influenced both the belief in truth as a value and the ability to carry out these evaluations: (1) the rise in various kinds of literacy and numeracy; (2) expansion of data-driven government; (3) the rise of scientific and social science research; (4) an expanding progressive sentiment to address social problems; (5) the transformation of the media to become fact-driven; and (6) the creation of a data and computing infrastructure robust enough to handle real-world problems. …”

On the origin and development of classifiers in Jingpo by Xu, Xijian

“…When most nouns are counted, no classifier (CL) is necessary; the noun can be directly modified by a numeral. For example, 'four chickens' is expressed as u31 ma 31 1i33 'chicken' + 'four'; 'two shirts' is expressed as pa'33 101333 1155 khoij51 'shirt' + 'two'. …”

Application of the affine stochastic model on Singapore mortality data. by Chia, Fu Yuan., Meng, Deshuo., Zou, Deshun.

“…Kalman Filter technique is adopted to facilitate the derivation of the maximum-likelihood estimators (MLE) and EM-algorithm with direct search technique is applied in finding the numeric estimates for the MLE. The affine stochastic state-space model allows us to capture two important features of mortality rates: time dependency and uncertainty of the future development. …”

Extracting time expressions and named entities with constituent-based tagging schemes by Zhong, Xiaoshi, Cambria, Erik, Hussain Amir

“…Specifically, to model time expressions, we defined a constituent-based tagging scheme termed TOMN scheme with four tags, namely T, O, M, and N, indicating the defined constituents of time expressions, namely time token, modifier, numeral, and the words outside time expressions. To model named entities, we defined a constituent-based tagging scheme termed UGTO scheme with four tags, namely U, G, T, and O, indicating the defined constituents of named entities, namely uncommon word, general modifier, trigger word, and the words outside named entities. …”
