NRU-HSE at SemEval-2016 Task 4: The open quantification library with two iterative methods
P. 171–177.
Karpov N., Porshnev A., Rudakov Kirill
In many areas, such as social science, politics or market research, people need to track sentiment and their changes over time. For sentiment analysis in this field it is more important to correctly estimate proportions of each sentiment expressed in the set of documents (quantification task) than to accurately estimate sentiment of a particular document (classification). Basically, our study was aimed to analyze the effectiveness of two iterative quantification techniques and to compare their effectiveness with baseline methods. All the techniques are evaluated using a set of synthesized data and the SemEval-2016 Task4 dataset. We made the quantification methods from this paper available as a Python open source library. The results of comparison and possible limitations of the quantification techniques are discussed.

The article is concerned with Halpern's first-order logics of probability, which we denote by L_1 and L_2 – the first of these deals with probability distributions on the domain, while the second employs distributions on external sets of possible worlds. The proofs of [Abadi & Halpern 1994] of the complexity lower bound results for L_1 and L_2 ...

The idea of treating negation as a modality manifests itself in various logical systems, especially in Došen's propositional logic N, whose negation is weaker than that of Johansson's minimal logic. Among the interesting extensions of N are the propositional logics N* and Hype; the former was proposed in [Cabalar et al. 2006], while the latter has ...

We shall be concerned with two natural expansions of the quantifier-free ‘polynomial’ probability logic of [Fagin et al. 1990]. One of these, denoted by QPL-e, is obtained by adding quantifiers over arbitrary events, and the other, denoted by p-QPL-e, uses quantifiers over propositional formulas — or equivalently, over events expressible by such formulas. The earlier proofs ...

I present two challenges for the popular approach to the meaning of negative concord items, or neg-words, as existential quantifiers or indefinites. The first challenge concerns the interaction of that analysis with the approaches to fragment answers as instances of clausal ellipsis. The second challenge stems from the ability of multiple neg-words within one clause ...
