  • Title of Thesis: ABSTRACT CLASSIFYING BIAS
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: CLASSIFYING BIAS IN LARGE MULTILINGUAL CORPORA VIA CROWDSOURCING AND TOPIC MODELING Team BIASES: Brianna Caljean, Katherine Calvert, Ashley Chang, Elliot Frank, Rosana Garay Jáuregui, Geoffrey Palo, Ryan Rinker, Gareth Weakly, Nicolette Wolfrey, William Zhang Thesis Directed By: Dr. David Zajic, Ph.D. Our project extends previous algorithmic approaches to finding bias in large text corpora. We used multilingual topic modeling to examine language-specific bias in the English, Spanish, and Russian versions of Wikipedia. In particular, we placed Spanish articles discussing the Cold War on a Russian-English viewpoint spectrum based on similarity in topic distribution. We then crowdsourced human annotations of Spanish Wikipedia articles for comparison to the topic model. Our hypothesis was that human annotators and topic modeling algorithms would provide correlated results for bias. However, that was not the case. Our annotators indicated that humans were more perceptive of sentiment in article text than topic distribution, which suggests that our classifier provides a different perspective on a text’s bias.

  • Mystery of the Third Trip Or Time Pressure Levanevskogo
    Mystery of the Third trip or time pressure Levanevskogo The author-composer: Kostarev Evgeny . 2007/2008 Part 1. Start "Flying high above, and the farthest the fastest! " Battle cry of the Soviet government. Shortcut In autumn 1934 the Hero of the Soviet Union, the polar marine pilot Sigismund Alexandrovich Levanevskogo enticed by the idea Flight. He was the first in the Soviet Union, who suggested the idea of non-stop flight across the North Pole. The starting point of the route was Moscow; fit to accomplish the same in the U.S. The Soviet government in this project was received with great interest and supported the idea of non-stop transpolar flight. Of course! From Moscow to San Francisco can be reached in three ways - through the pole across the Atlantic or the Pacific Ocean. In this case, the distance will be 9,605 km, 14,000 km and 18,000 respectively. Sigismund Levanevsky Zygmunt A. Levanevsky - a very controversial figure in the history of Soviet aviation. He was born in 1902 in St. Petersburg. Levanevskogo father, a Polish worker, died when he was only 8 years old. In 1916, after graduating from three classes of the district school, Sigismund gave up teaching and went to work in a factory the company "Spring" in order to feed his family. Revolution scattered Levanevskogo the world - Sigismund in 1919, joined the Red Army, and his family moved from Petrograd. During the Civil War Levanevsky managed to get a fighter requisition, party members, eliminate gangs in Dagestan, and assistant warden 4th aeronautic squad in Petrograd.

  • The Northern Routeing in the Arctic Sea and Russian History
    講演(02) The Northern Routeing in the Arctic Sea and Russian History Leonid M. Mitnik V.I. Il'ichev Pacific Oceanological Institute FEB RAS 690041 Vladivostok, Russia, e-mail: [email protected] “History is a lantern to the future, which shines to us from the past” (V.О. Klyuchevskiy, 1841-1911) “The history of the exploration of the North is full of heroic spirit and tragedy, voyages and expeditions that were accompanied with the geographical discoveries, the history of scientific studies, organization of a system of stationary and non-stationary observations, and creation of the scientific–technical support service for the Northern Sea Route (NSR) is a history of a fierce battle against the incredibly severe conditions of the Arctic”. The motivation to navigate the Northeast Passage was initially economic. In Russia the idea of a possible seaway connecting the Atlantic and the Pacific was first put forward by the diplomat Gerasimov in 1525. However, Russian settlers and traders on the coasts of the White Sea, the Pomors, had been exploring parts of the route as early as the 11th century. By the 17th century they established a continuous sea route from Arkhangelsk as far east as the mouth of Yenisey. This route, known as Mangazeya seaway, after its eastern terminus, the trade depot of Mangazeya, was an early precursor to the Northern Sea Route. Western parts of the passage were simultaneously being explored by Northern European countries, looking for an alternative seaway to China and India. Although these expeditions failed, new coasts and islands were discovered. Most notable is the 1596 expedition led by Dutch navigator Willem Barentz who discovered Spitsbergen and Bear Island and rounded the north of Novaya Zemlya.

  • The Northeast Passage
    THE NORTHEAST PASSAGE Trabajo Final de Grado Facultad de Náutica de Barcelona Universidad Politécnica de Cataluña Trabajo realizado por: Lucas Peralta Lucchini Dirigido por: Xavier Martínez de Osés Grado en Náutica y Transporte Marítimo Barcelona,09/09/2016. Departamento de Ciencia e Ingeniería Náuticas Agradecimientos En primer lugar, he de agradecer encarecidamente a mi tutor, el señor Xavier Martínez de Osés, quién me ha ayudado y ha demostrado interés en todo momento para que este “Trabajo Final de Grado” se realice lo mejor posible. En segundo lugar, a mis padres, a mi hermana, y a mi pareja, quienes me han dado en todo momento un apoyo incondicional para continuar y finalizar esta etapa de mi vida ayudándome a alcanzar mi meta profesional del sector marítimo y facilitándome el camino para poder continuar mi formación con estudio superiores. The Northeast Passage 2016 Abstract Different sources of information were compare and we have found that cutting distance is substantial, and therefore is highly recommended if conditions permitting the ship navigate this route to cross the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic or vice versa. And it is due of it, that the maritime traffic has increased the use of this new route. The development of new technologies like the icebreaker ships, had made it an easier way. All the expenses were taken in consideration while the research has been done. As we had checked throughout the research we had seen that depending on the type of vessel to which we are referring fees vary. Through studies in the INSROP 13 ' in which it was shown that the hiring of ships icebreakers for escort was profitable only in cases in which it would mobilize more than a certain number of tons of cargo All alternative routes that have been mentioned have tried to compete with this new seaborne which apparently has left them off the market.

In 27 this study, the soil organic matter (SOM) was analyzed from different sample areas (surface level 28 and partially isolated supra-permafrost layer) of the tundra-barren landscape of the Fildes 29 Peninsula, King George Island, Western Antarctica. We found that the humic acids (HAs) of the 30 cryoturbated, buried areas had lower amounts of alkylaromatic and protonized aromatic 31 compounds. In contrast, the HAs from the surface layers contain less alkyl carbon components. 32 The free radical content was higher in the surface layers than in the buried layers due to the 33 presence of fresh organic remnants in superficial soil samples.

  • Briefing the Ambassador: Joseph Davies and the U.S. Press Corps in Moscow, 1936-1938
    Briefing the Ambassador: Joseph Davies and the U.S. Press Corps in Moscow, 1936-1938 By Dominique Petit Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the MA degree in History University of Ottawa © Dominique Petit, Ottawa, Canada, 2018 Abstract Briefing the Ambassador: Joseph Davies and the U.S. Press Corps in Moscow, 1936-1938 Dominique Petit Dr. Corinne Gaudin 2018 This thesis examines the writing of U.S. Ambassador to the Soviet Union Joseph Davies, Norman Deuel of the United Press, and Joseph Barnes of the New York Herald Tribune over the course of their respective postings in Moscow between 1936-1938. The purpose of this thesis is to look past interpretations of perceived right and wrong reporting on the Soviet Union and instead identify precisely how and why Americans outside the diplomatic corps viewed and perhaps identified with aspects of Stalinist society. Residing in Moscow over an extended period of time, Davies, Barnes, and Deuel were not mere observers. Immersed in Soviet society, Davies and the press correspondents became themselves producers of socialist realist writing as their American affinity for ambitious modernization translated into an idealized view of Stalinist modernization projects, one which viewed present hardships through a socialist realist lens while echoing Soviet enthusiasm for medical and scientific advancements, material plenty, heroics, youth, and territorial exploration. Excluded from the close-knit circle of career diplomats, Davies and the newsmen also came to view the Moscow show trials through the same socialist realist lens, one which presented the desired utopian future through elaborate socialist realist theatre.
