    The Music Annotation Pattern

    Get PDF
    The annotation of music content is a complex process to represent due to its inherent multifaceted, subjectivity, and interdisciplinary nature. Numerous systems and conventions for annotating music have been developed as independent standards over the past decades. Little has been done to make them interoperable, which jeopardises cross-corpora studies as it requires users to familiarise with a multitude of conventions. Most of these systems lack the semantic expressiveness needed to represent the complexity of the musical language and cannot model multi-modal annotations originating from audio and symbolic sources. In this article, we introduce the Music Annotation Pattern, an Ontology Design Pattern (ODP) to homogenise different annotation systems and to represent several types of musical objects (e.g. chords, patterns, structures). This ODP preserves the semantics of the object s content at different levels and temporal granularity. Moreover, our ODP accounts for multi-modality upfront, to describe annotations derived from different sources, and it is the first to enable the integration of music datasets at a large scale

    From Detection to Explanation: Effective Learning Strategies for LLMs in Online Abusive Language Research

    No full text
    Abusive language detection relies on understanding different levels of intensity, expressiveness and targeted groups, which requires commonsense reasoning, world knowledge and linguistic nuances that evolve over time. Here, we frame the problem as a knowledge-guided learning task, and demonstrate that LLMs' implicit knowledge without an accurate strategy is not suitable for multi-class detection nor explanation generation. We publicly release GLlama Alarm, the knowledge-Guided version of Llama-2 instruction fine-tuned for multi-class abusive language detection and explanation generation. By being fine-tuned on structured explanations and external reliable knowledge sources, our model mitigates bias and generates explanations that are relevant to the text and coherent with human reasoning, with an average 48.76% better alignment with human judgment according to our expert survey

    RevOnt: Reverse engineering of competency questions from knowledge graphs via language models

    The process of developing ontologies – a formal, explicit specification of a shared conceptualisation – is addressed by well-known methodologies. As for any engineering development, its fundamental basis is the collection of requirements, which includes the elicitation of competency questions. Competency questions are defined through interacting with domain and application experts or by investigating existing datasets that may be used to populate the ontology i.e. its knowledge graph. The rise in popularity and accessibility of knowledge graphs provides an opportunity to support this phase with automatic tools. In this work, we explore the possibility of extracting competency questions from a knowledge graph. This reverses the traditional workflow in which knowledge graphs are built from ontologies, which in turn are engineered from competency questions. We describe in detail RevOnt, an approach that extracts and abstracts triples from a knowledge graph, generates questions based on triple verbalisations, and filters the resulting questions to yield a meaningful set of competency questions; the WDV dataset. This approach is implemented utilising the Wikidata knowledge graph as a use case, and contributes a set of core competency questions from 20 domains present in the WDV dataset. To evaluate RevOnt, we contribute a new dataset of manually-annotated high-quality competency questions, and compare the extracted competency questions by calculating their BLEU score against the human references. The results for the abstraction and question generation components of the approach show good to high quality. Meanwhile, the accuracy of the filtering component is above 86%, which is comparable to the state-of-the-art classifications

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Get PDF
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Get PDF
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
