Real-time recognition of personal routes using instance-based learning
2011
Predicting routes is a critical enabler for many new location-based applications and services, such as warning drivers about congestion- or accident-risky areas. Hybrid vehicles can also utilize the route prediction for optimizing their charging and discharging phases. In this paper, a new lightweight route recognition approach using instance-based learning is introduced. In this approach, the current route is compared in real-time against the route instances observed in past, and the most similar route is selected. In order to assess the similarity between the routes, a similarity measure based on the longest common subsequence (LCSS) is employed, and an algorithm for incrementally evaluat…

Evolution of nurses' social representation of hospital hygiene: From training to practice
2011
Nurses' social representations of hospital hygiene were analyzed. A cross-sectional method was used to compare and analyze the social representations of the concept domain of "hospital hygiene" across three independent groups of participants (N=744). The groups included: (a) professional nurses (N=114); (b) student nurses (N=315); and (c) psychology students (N=315). Comparisons were drawn: (a) between professionals and students; and (b) between student nurse cohorts at three different levels (years) of training. The results show an ongoing evolution of the social representations of hospital hygiene during training and in the course of professional practice. The representation of hospital h…
Understanding Estonian phraseological units on the basis of Finnish : contributing and misleading factors
2020
Vironkielistä tekstiä lukevien suomalaisten on havaittu hyödyntävän monenlaisia strategioita selvittääkseen sukukielen sanojen merkityksiä. Yksi niistä on pohjustaminen (priming). Kun kyseessä on fraseologinen yksikkö, yksi osa (prime) pohjustaa toisen osan eli kohdesanan (targetin) esiintymistä, mikäli prime on tunnistettavissa äidinkielen perusteella. Tässä artikkelissa kuvaamme muutamia erityistilanteita. Miten pohjustimen ja kohdesanan välinen etäisyys tai teemanvaihdos vaikuttavat ’petollisen ystävän’ ymmärtämiseen? Lisäksi tutkimme sitä, miten ahdasrajainen semanttinen kategoria ohjaa siitä puuttuvan jäsenen merkityksen löytämistä ja millaisia perusteita käännösratkaisuille on löydett…
