International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications(IJACSA), 7(9), 2016 ; The growing of Web 2.0 has led to huge information is available. The analysis of this information can be very useful in various fields. In this regards, opinion mining and sentiment analysis are one of the most interesting task that many researchers have paid attention for two last decades. However, this task involves to some challenges that a very important challenge is the different polarity of words in various domain and context. Word polarity is an important feature in the determination of review polarity through sentiment analysis. Existing studies have proposed n-gram technique as a solution which allows the matching of the selected words to the lexicon. However, identification of word polarity using the standard n-gram method poses limitation as it ignores the word placement and its effect according to the contextual domain. Therefore, this study proposes a linguistic-based model to extract the word adjacency patterns to determine the review polarity. The results reflect the superiority of the proposed model compared to other benchmarking approaches. ; http://thesai.org/Downloads/Volume7No9/Paper_20-Context_Sensitive_Opinion_Mining_using_Polarity_Patterns.pdf

It is unclear, however, whether this is an associated response to a certain set of cues (e.g. the presence and attention of a human addressee) or a communicative signal which can be adjusted to relevant aspects of the spatial and social context. In three experiments, we tested captive great apes' flexible use of pointing gestures. We manipulated the communicative context so that the default pointing response of apes would have indicated an undesired object, either due to 1) the spatial arrangements of the target objects, 2) the perspective of the addressee or 3) the knowledge of the addressee about the target objects' location. The results of the three experiments indicate that great apes can successfully adjust their pointing to the spatial configuration of the referent environment such as distance and location of food. However, we found no evidence that they take the perspective or the knowledge of the addressee into account when doing so. This implies that pointing in great apes is a context-sensitive, but maybe less versatile, communicative signal compared to human pointing. ; Publisher PDF ; Peer reviewed

API4TOYS is a project for the integration of the videogames and the traditional toy through the usage of common communication protocols and APIs, so any videogame developer will be able to communicate with a compatible toy, get usage information in real time and even actuate on it, giving a sense of smartness to the toy. This smartness will be oriented to get learning methodologies adapted to each user, gamifying the learning in an adaptive way and applying gamming contexts to kids and adults learning, through the integration of technological advances and ICTs to the traditional toys. API4TOYS is a project funded by by the Valencian Institute of Business Competitiveness (IVACE) and European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). This document features the communication technologies analysis and the state of the art of various solutions used by toy manufacturers, the analysis of requirements and specifications for this project, and an initial high level design of the architecture selected for API4TOYS. ; API4TOYS. Project funded by the Valencian Institute of Business Competitiveness (IVACE) and European Union through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), within the public grant program adressed to Technological Institutes of the Valencian Community for 2015.

Development is a difficult endeavor in any environment, much more so in places such as Myanmar with its "perfect storm" of extreme poverty, international sanctions, and political repression and human rights violations with concomitant conflicts within development organizations over norms and policies. This book examines how to effect successful development interventions in Myanmar. The author points out how practitioners have questioned universal economic prescriptions for development in ways that they have not questioned the normative foundations behind their work. Ware does not argue for a facile moral relativism; he sees Myanmar as an egregious violator of human rights, but he does call for "context sensitivity" to help organizations adapt their values to meet better the needs of client populations. Through fieldwork and an extensive series of interviews, Ware brings into focus key issues of perception and practice that are intrinsic to the development enterprise. - Supplied by publisher

AbstractThis article aims to bring context from the background into the foreground of our work. Especially in more quantitative, outcome‐focused efforts, context continues to play a character role. Though we recognize that context affects what we do and that it affects the programs and policies we study, the attention often is more implicit than explicit, and more as an afterthought when the work does not go as planned or findings are difficult to interpret. In this article, the goal is to give context more of a leading role by offering a framework for thinking about context and how we can enhance our practice by including an explicit focus on context in our evaluation inquiry. The article describes a strategy for contextsensitive practice that balances attention to context, stakeholder needs, and rigor. © Wiley Periodicals, Inc., and the American Evaluation Association.
