Semi-automated annotation of page-based documents within the Genre and Multimodality framework
2016
This paper describes ongoing work on a tool developed for annotating document images for their multimodal features and compiling this information into a corpus. The tool leverages open source computer vision and natural language processing libraries to describe the content and structure of multimodal documents and to generate multiple layers of XML annotation. The paper introduces the annotation schema, describes the document processing pipeline and concludes with a brief description of future work.
Dealing with Culture in Schools: A Small-Step Approach Towards Anti-racism in Finland
2017
This chapter discusses anti-racism education by focusing on how culture is used in educational discourses in Finland. More and more studies highlight the pervasive use of culture as a substitute for race, urging scholars to explore how and why cultural claims are made relevant (Breidenbach and Nyiri 2009; Piller 2011). Culture is present in numerous subjects (e.g. religion, literature, history, languages) and anti-racism education should therefore be understood from a holistic perspective. This chapter focuses on the Finnish context which is relevant to examine for two main reasons. First, Finnish school system is globally represented as high quality. Second, the new national curriculum, wh…
Prácticas culturales y espacios públicos como lugares de interacción social y política. Un análisis de activismo y de crítica festiva en Barcelona y …
2021
espanolEl desarrollo de las grandes ciudades se ha constituido como un fenomeno global, reduciendo las posibilidades de generar convivencia en el espacio social. La busqueda actual por conectar la escala micropolitica de estos espacios con sus habitantes reconfigura el sentido de pertenencia a la ciudad. Esta aspiracion, muchas veces, desemboca en formas activas de desobediencia social en el espacio publico o, por contraposicion, de acciones que perpetuan la reproduccion de practicas culturales conservadoras. Desde esta mirada el presente trabajo se propone analizar algunas practicas culturales que ubican la participacion en el espacio publico como protagonista. Por un lado, acciones artivi…
The influence of tin compounds on the dynamic properties of liposome membranes: A study using the ESR method
2005
AbstractThe influence of organic and inorganic compounds of tin on the dynamic properties of liposome membranes obtained in the process of dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) sonication in distilled water was investigated. This was carried out by means of the spin ESR probe method. The probes were selected in such a way as to penetrate different areas of the membrane (a TEMPO probe, 5-DOXYL stearic acid, 16-DOXYL stearic acid). Four compounds of tin were chosen: three organic ones, (CH3)4Sn, (C2H5)4Sn and (C3H7)3SnCl, and one inorganic one, SnCl2. The investigated compounds were added to a liposome dispersion, which was prepared prior to that. The concentration of the admixture was change…
Der Einfluss der Medien auf Richter und Staatsanwälte
2012
„Schmerzensgeld fur Kinder-Morder?“ fragte die Bild am 4. August 2011, dem Tag, an dem das Frankfurter Landgericht uber den Anspruch auf Schadensersatz fur den 35-jahrigen Magnus G. befand. Dem Entfuhrer eines elfjahrigen Jungen war im Polizeigewahrsam Gewalt angedroht worden, um den Jungen womoglich zu retten. Doch da hatte G. das Kind bereits ermordet. G. wurde zu lebenslanglicher Haft verurteilt, und der Polizeibeamte, der ihm gedroht hatte, wurde wegen Notigung belangt.
Extracting locations from sport and exercise-related social media messages using a neural network-based bilingual toponym recognition model
2022
Funding: This study is a part of the “Equality in suburban physical activity environments, YLLI” research project (in Finnish: Yhdenvertainen liikunnallinen lähiö, YLLI). The project is being financed by the research program about suburban in Finland “Lähiöohjelma 2020-2022” coordinated by the Ministry of Environment (grant recipient: Dr. Petteri Muukkonen). Sport and exercise contribute to health and well-being in cities. While previous research has mainly focused on activities at specific locations such as sport facilities, “informal sport” that occur at arbitrary locations across the city have been largely neglected. Such activities are more challenging to observe, but this challenge may…
Intercultural crisis communication during the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster
2014
With the motivation of contributing to further development of the emerging field of intercultural crisis communication, the study aims at exploring the reasons why the global media criticized the Japanese authorities’ crisis communication during the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster through the inductive content analysis on both the Japanese authorities’ crisis communication and the global media’s perceptions on the Japanese authorities’ crisis communication. The data collected from 11 March to September 2011, including 160 press releases, transcripts of the foreign press conferences and speeches delivered at the international conferences by the Japanese authorities, and 120 news reports from…
