Cultural Anthropology Through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-Based Sentiment
Cultural Anthropology through the Lens of Wikipedia: Historical Leader Networks, Gender Bias, and News-based Sentiment Peter A. Gloor, Joao Marcos, Patrick M. de Boer, Hauke Fuehres, Wei Lo, Keiichi Nemoto [email protected] MIT Center for Collective Intelligence Abstract In this paper we study the differences in historical World View between Western and Eastern cultures, represented through the English, the Chinese, Japanese, and German Wikipedia. In particular, we analyze the historical networks of the World’s leaders since the beginning of written history, comparing them in the different Wikipedias and assessing cultural chauvinism. We also identify the most influential female leaders of all times in the English, German, Spanish, and Portuguese Wikipedia. As an additional lens into the soul of a culture we compare top terms, sentiment, emotionality, and complexity of the English, Portuguese, Spanish, and German Wikinews. 1 Introduction Over the last ten years the Web has become a mirror of the real world (Gloor et al. 2009). More recently, the Web has also begun to influence the real world: Societal events such as the Arab spring and the Chilean student unrest have drawn a large part of their impetus from the Internet and online social networks. In the meantime, Wikipedia has become one of the top ten Web sites1, occasionally beating daily newspapers in the actuality of most recent news. Be it the resignation of German national soccer team captain Philipp Lahm, or the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight 17 in the Ukraine by a guided missile, the corresponding Wikipedia page is updated as soon as the actual event happened (Becker 2012.

A story about our secrets, about confinement, about the isolation we all share…." - Philippe Claudel SYNOPSIS Léa (Elsa Zylberstein) and Juliette (Kristin Scott Thomas) are sisters. The film begins with Léa, the younger sister by fifteen years, picking Juliette up at the airport. We soon realize that the two sisters are almost complete strangers to each other. Juliette has just been released from prison after serving a long sentence. Léa was still a teenager when Juliette, a doctor, was convicted of the murder of her six-year-old son. Léa contacted Juliette when she was released and suggested that Juliette come to live with her. Juliette had no particular desire to see her sister again. Luc (Serge Hazanavicius), Léa’s husband, is quite reserved, almost hostile, about Juliette’s presence under their roof.

Gosford Park R
(/) GOSFORD PARK R By Erica Abeel (Http://Www.Filmjournal.Com/Taxonomy/Term/93) Nov 1, 2004 Like Share Tweet Reviews (//www.pinterest.com/pin/create/button What could be more intriguing than a whodunit by Robert Altman with an all-star cast set on an English estate? The opening moments of Gosford Park augur well: black screen and the rustle of steady rain. Then the Countess of Trentham (the incomparable Maggie Smith) and her awkward new maid (Kelly Macdonald) leave in a vintage buggy through a twilight mist, promising mystery and mannered mayhem. But that's as atmospheric as it gets. This latest by the Big Daddy of American Cinema soon veers off into a showcase for the Altman stock-in-trade of episodic stories, ensemble acting and overlapping dialogue (liberally laced with free-floating misogyny)--all of it oddly out of place in this Agatha Christie territory. It's 1932 and a covey of upper-class Brits converge on Gosford Park, the digs of Sir William McCordle (Michael Gambon) and his wife, Lady Sylvia (Kristin Scott Thomas), for a shooting party. Also on hand are Ivor Novello (Jeremy Northam), the '30s matinee idol and singer, along with Morris Weissman (Bob Balaban), a Hollywood vulgarian and producer of Charlie Chan movies, who's planning a new whodunit that mirrors the one we're watching. Recycling the upstairs/downstairs format, Altman cuts back and forth between the mostly despicable aristos at play in drawing room and field, and the subterranean crew of servants beavering away in the shadowy warrens below. Before the actual murder occurs, there's funny business galore, especially below stairs.

Revenue is also the most important and intuitionistic feedback to producers, directors and actors. Therefore it is worth for us to put effort on analyzing what factors correlate to revenue, so that producers, directors and actors know how to get higher revenue on next movie by focusing on most correlated factors. Our project focuses on anaylzing all kinds of factors that correlated to revenue, for example, genres, elements in the movie, popularity, release month, runtime, vote average, vote count on website and cast etc. After analysis, we can clearly know what are the crucial factors to a movie's revenue and our analysis can be used as a guide for people shooting movies who want to earn higher renveue for their next movie. They can focus on those most correlated factors, for example, shooting specific genre and hire some actors who have higher average revenue. Reasrch Question: Various factors blend together to create a high revenue for movie, but what are the most important aspect contribute to higher revenue?
