General semantics

the authors demonstrated how a combination of tools could be used to extract, transform, and analyze data using social semantic web techniques and big data analytics such as social web mining, social and conceptual network analytics (SNA), speech recognition and mission vision, natural language processing (NLP), sentiment analysis, recommender systems and user profiling, and semantic wiki systems to address various research questions. As the authors aimed to analyze the Croatian political landscape

Episodic memory has been found to be consistently impaired in AD, thus may be a reliable measure to distinguish between dementia and healthy ageing (Salmon & Bondi 2010). The RAVLT requires patients to learn a wordlist which is then recalled immediately, recalled after a delay, and lastly, a recognition test (Estévez-González et al. 2003). Although limited recall is observed in both dementia patients and healthy adults, healthy adults demonstrate significantly improved performance in the recognition

Classical conditioning and operant conditioning are both psychological ways of learning. Classical conditioning is learning by taking something neutral and associating it with something that already creates a certain response. For example, if you take something that is not scary like a baby doll and combine it with scary make-up and eerie music, you have changed the response of the once neutral doll, to have the same response as you would get with scary make-up and eerie music. It can take something

1.0 Introduction Definition: An analogy is a comparison between one thing and another, usually for the purpose of explanation or interpretation. It is similar to metaphor and simile; they are usually used in conversation to relate one situation to other. According to (Heick, 2014) other than conversational analogy there are analogies, which are formal analogies, used in teaching. They usually are called academic analogies. These analogies are the research-based tool for teaching in science class

Social networks are tools which represent the relationships between individuals and groups in a community. Nowadays virtual or online communities are groups of people connected through the internet and other information technologies have become an important part of modern society and contribute to life in many contexts social, educational, political and business. In early 20th century, virtual networking has become popular through web-based applications. There are many web based applications like

“Atomic Bride”, through its use of anaphora and combined repetition, morphs from an innocent poem about a cross-dresser to a bitter attack on societal ideals. Thomas Sayers Ellis utilizes three distinct repetitive elements - the use of the word “drag”, the grammatical statement “A good … starts in the … and works its way …”, and the anaphora “The world loves a … ” to express this change. The definition of “drag” shifts as the poem transitions between themes. In the line, “Andre’s cross- / dressing

An unexpected imitation test was the then conducted with the owner asking the dogs to remain on the blue carpet and pay attention to a chosen demonstrated action from table S1. Once they have demonstrated this action a predetermined retention interval, the time between the demonstrated action and the “Do it!” command, of one minute or one hour would be waited before the owner gave the dog the “Do it!” command. This test requires the assumption that a successful imitation of the demonstrated action

which is a form of long-term memory that requires conscious retrieval of previously learned information, and the subcategories semantic memory and episodic memory. Episodic memory consists of personal experiences and as such includes autobiographical memories of the self. Semantic memory is primarily composed of generalized factual information. As both episodic and semantic memory are as stated earlier examples of long-term memory, they are as such subject to changes over time, due to vulnerability

Throughout the article, Tulving examines two different kinds of human memory retrieval processes, one being episodic retrieval and the other being semantic retrieval. The central thesis that is proposed in this article is that episodic and semantic memory systems are similar, as they: . . .both depend on information previously stored, both have to do with access to such information, in both cases such specificity of access is governed by present cues or prompts, and in both cases the retriever
