Book Synopsis Pretrained Transformers for Text Ranking by : Jimmy Lin
Download or read book Pretrained Transformers for Text Ranking written by Jimmy Lin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-01 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of text ranking is to generate an ordered list of texts retrieved from a corpus in response to a query. Although the most common formulation of text ranking is search, instances of the task can also be found in many natural language processing (NLP) applications.This book provides an overview of text ranking with neural network architectures known as transformers, of which BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) is the best-known example. The combination of transformers and self-supervised pretraining has been responsible for a paradigm shift in NLP, information retrieval (IR), and beyond. This book provides a synthesis of existing work as a single point of entry for practitioners who wish to gain a better understanding of how to apply transformers to text ranking problems and researchers who wish to pursue work in this area. It covers a wide range of modern techniques, grouped into two high-level categories: transformer models that perform reranking in multi-stage architectures and dense retrieval techniques that perform ranking directly. Two themes pervade the book: techniques for handling long documents, beyond typical sentence-by-sentence processing in NLP, and techniques for addressing the tradeoff between effectiveness (i.e., result quality) and efficiency (e.g., query latency, model and index size). Although transformer architectures and pretraining techniques are recent innovations, many aspects of how they are applied to text ranking are relatively well understood and represent mature techniques. However, there remain many open research questions, and thus in addition to laying out the foundations of pretrained transformers for text ranking, this book also attempts to prognosticate where the field is heading.
Book Synopsis Demystifying Scholarly Metrics by : Marc W. Vinyard
Download or read book Demystifying Scholarly Metrics written by Marc W. Vinyard and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2022-02-25 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demystifying Scholarly Metrics gives librarians and faculty the confidence to navigate the maze of scholarly metrics, identify quality journals in which to publish, and measure the impact of scholarly works. Both librarians and professors can be overwhelmed by the bewildering number of scholarly metrics. This user-friendly book demystifies them, helping librarians become familiar with scholarly metrics and giving them the confidence to assist faculty at their institutions. It also equips faculty authors with the knowledge to evaluate journals and use metrics to track their scholarly impact. Several controversies exist in the scholarly metrics landscape, including a disagreement between the proponents of altmetrics and traditional bibliometrics. Even more contentious debates are breaking out over predatory journals and open access publishing. Authors Mark Vinyard and Jaimie Beth Colvin, who successfully launched a faculty publishing initiative, explain which aspects of metrics are truly essential to grasp, and they place these numbers in context. They help readers identify the metrics that are the best fit for their scholarship and give librarians and professors the tools to make smart decisions in this changing scholarly metrics landscape.
Book Synopsis The Impact of Higher Education Ranking Systems on Universities by : Kevin Downing
Download or read book The Impact of Higher Education Ranking Systems on Universities written by Kevin Downing and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-04-05 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, written by three generations of rankings academics with considerable experience from three very different regions of the globe, lifts the lid on the real impact of higher education ranking systems (HERS) on universities and their stakeholders. It critically analyses the criteria that make up the ‘Big Three’ global ranking systems and, using interviews with senior administrators, academics and managers, discusses their impact on universities from four very different continents. Higher education continues to be dominated by a reputational hierarchy of institutions that sustains and is reinforced by HERS. Despite all the opinions and arguments about the legitimacy of the rankings as a construct, it seems experts agree that they are here to stay. The question, therefore, seems to be less about whether or not universities should be compared and ranked, but the manner in which this is undertaken. Delivering a fresh perspective on global rankings, this book summarizes the development of HERS and provides a critical evaluation of the effects of HERS on four different major regions – South Africa, the Arab region, South East Asia, and Australia. It will appeal to any academic, student, university administrator or governing body interested in or affected by global higher education ranking systems.

Book Synopsis Assessing the Innovation System of Australia. The Influence of Australian Economy by : Max Radünzel
Download or read book Assessing the Innovation System of Australia. The Influence of Australian Economy written by Max Radünzel and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject Politics - Region: Other States, grade: 1,7, Private University of Applied Sciences Goettingen, language: English, abstract: The paper questions what influence high-growth firms in Australia have on the Australian innovation system. Is their influence on the innovation system as significant as their contribution to the Australian economy? What role do research and development activities play in this context, especially research and development expenditures? It is the aim of this scientific work, especially with publications from the Australian government, to provide answers to these questions. To answer the questions just mentioned, this paper is structured as follows. Section 2 deals entirely with the phenomenon of high-growth firms in Australia. First, a few selected data on the Australian economy are presented and put into context with those of another economy. In addition, two innovation indices are discussed in order to classify Australia's innovative capacity. Sections 2.1 and 2.2 define high-growth firms, explain their typical characteristics and then discuss the performance of high-growth firms and their impact on Australian economic performance. Section 3 continues with the relationship between business performance and innovation. It uses literature and studies to explain the relationship between business performance and innovation and how it is expressed. Building on this, Section 3.1 discusses the role of R&D activities and especially research and development expenditure in high-growth firms in Australia in this relationship. Finally, before concluding this paper, Section 4 provides an outlook on the impact of high-growth firms on Australia's innovation system. First, we define what is meant by a national innovation system and then use this as a basis for answering the main question of this paper.
Download or read book Made Up written by Martha Laham and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-10-10 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Made Up exposes the multibillion-dollar beauty industry that promotes unrealistic beauty standards through a market basket of advertising tricks, techniques, and technologies. Cosmetics magnate Charles Revson, a founder of Revlon, was quoted as saying, "In the factory, we make cosmetics. In the store, we sell hope." This pioneering entrepreneur, who built an empire on the foundation of nail polish, captured the unvarnished truth about the beauty business in a single metaphor: hope in a jar. Made Up: How the Beauty Industry Manipulates Consumers, Preys on Women’s Insecurities, and Promotes Unattainable Beauty Standards is a thorough examination of innovative, and often controversial, advertising practices used by beauty companies to persuade consumers, mainly women, to buy discretionary goods like cosmetics and scents. These approaches are clearly working: the average American woman will spend around $300,000 on facial products alone during her lifetime. This revealing book traces the evolution of the global beauty industry, discovers what makes beauty consumers tick, explores the persistence and pervasiveness of the feminine beauty ideal, and investigates the myth-making power of beauty advertising. It also examines stereotypical portrayals of women in beauty ads, looks at celebrity beauty endorsements, and dissects the “looks industry.” Made Upuncovers the reality behind an Elysian world of fantasy and romance created by beauty brands that won’t tell women the truth about beauty.

Book Synopsis Medicine Across Borders: Exploration of Grey Zones by : Susanne Lundin
Download or read book Medicine Across Borders: Exploration of Grey Zones written by Susanne Lundin and published by African Sun Media. This book was released on 2023-11-15 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medicine Across Borders provides an interdisciplinary space to discuss the issue of substandard and falsified medical products. Scholars from social and medical sciences collaboratively contribute insight to improving safe medicine access. The circulation of medicines and medical products on the informal market is well-known. Stakeholders, including governmental agencies and biotechnic enterprises, invest much effort in designing and implementing macrolevel interventions to limit the spread of such products. Nevertheless, there is a lack of knowledge and understanding of how informal markets function in everyday medicine access and use. This applies to professionals within and beyond academia, state governments, as well as the general public. This book takes an international perspective, examining the issue of substandard and falsified medical products cross nationally. Falsified and poor-quality medicines are prevalent in low- and middle-income countries, but this book also includes research from high-income countries arguing that they too have vulnerabilities, and emphasising the need for vigilance even in well-resourced and well-regulated regimes. Medicine Across Borders: Exploration of Grey Zones provides an interdisciplinary space for a depth and diversity of material that spotlights some contemporary themes hindering access to essential medicines and driving the penetration of substandard and falsified medical products. The authors are drawn from a range of academic disciplines across the social and medical sciences presenting findings from data collected using an eclectic mix of methods and analysis. Surveys, ethnography, narrative case studies, statistical, and thematic analysis are all deployed.

Book Synopsis The internationalization of professional football clubs. Potential markets and the brand personality of Borussia Dortmund by : Christian Weißkopf
Download or read book The internationalization of professional football clubs. Potential markets and the brand personality of Borussia Dortmund written by Christian Weißkopf and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2020-08-05 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Dortmund, language: English, abstract: The ongoing professionalization and commercialization of football, as the logical consequence of the constantly increasing financing need of today’s football clubs, constitutes a topic of high interest within the current media landscape and society. This phenomenon is especially valid for the leading clubs of the "big five" European football leagues. Considering that further growth opportunities in their respective domestic, mainly saturated markets are limited, most of these clubs strengthened their efforts of expanding their business activities into new foreign markets in recent years. In this context, it seems that the assessment and selection of potential foreign markets are mainly based on the potential fanbase which causes a situation in which the internationalization path of leading European football clubs appears to be relatively similar and mapped out to a large degree. Due to this fact and the non-perceptibility of a systematical assessment and selection procedure, this thesis examined the attractivity of current and prospective markets by means of deductive analysis. The results confirmed the general assumption of the high importance of socio-economic conditions as a significant determining factor for assessing the attractivity of prospective new foreign markets. Based on these findings, the thesis provides a ranking of the top non-UEFA member markets which could demonstrate deviations between the actual target markets of European football clubs and the results of the ranking. Furthermore, as the internationalization of a professional football club implies also the extension of a club’s brand management and marketing activities, the thesis contains an empirical study on the perception of the brand "Borussia Dortmund" within international markets. In accordance with global marketing literature which states that cultural differences have the potential to notably affect consumer perception of foreign brands, the study was able to confirm this assumption. The results based on the brand identity and personality of "Borussia Dortmund" provided clear indications that deviations on the perception can be linked to and explained by cultural differences. Consequently, these findings could serve as the basis for possible adaptations on the brand identity for being able to exploit commercial potentials in new foreign markets in a more effective and efficient way.

Book Synopsis 2023 Taiwan Health and Welfare Report by : The Ministry of Health and Welfare
Download or read book 2023 Taiwan Health and Welfare Report written by The Ministry of Health and Welfare and published by The Ministry of Health and Welfare. This book was released on 2023-10-01 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The COVID-19 pandemic continued to spread in 2022. However, with the increasing distribution of vaccines and the emergence of less severe viral variants, the Ministry of Health and Welfare changed its focus from a strict containment epidemic prevention policy to a strategic policy of coexistence. Drawing upon the wealth of experience and adaptability gained from past challenges, we progressively embarked on a path towards easing pandemic restrictions. Furthermore, guided by our vision to be "the most trustworthy ministry for the people," we remained committed to continuously elevating healthcare professionalism, integrating and effectively allocating social welfare resources, and aligning ourselves with the global health and welfare system. Aging and low birth rates remain the most pressing issues facing Taiwan's population. The Ministry continues to create a friendly parenting environment, providing ongoing assistance for infertility treatment, increasing child-raising allowance, and daycare subsidies to alleviate the child-rearing burden on families. In April 2022, we expanded the nationwide "Home Care Program for Low (including extremely low) Birth Weight Infants" to enhance the quality of care. On the other hand, in response to an aged society, the Ministry is actively promoting age-friendly and dementia-friendly environments. By the end of 2022, a total of 585 locations were established in various counties and cities, offering health promotion courses for the elderly to ensure comprehensive and sustained healthcare services. We also funded 40 community nutrition promotion centers and branch centers nationwide, supporting communal dining venues and community food service providers to offer age-friendly dining services. Our efforts further expanded to dementia prevention and friendly community initiatives, implementing policies to "enhance public awareness and friendly attitudes towards dementia" and "reduce the risk of developing dementia." In addition to safeguarding not only the elderly and young but also every individual across their entire lifespan, we have been diligently cultivating a health-supportive environment. To this end, the Ministry continues to drive amendments to the Tobacco Hazards Prevention Act, effectively regulating novel nicotine and tobacco products. Simultaneously, under the provisions of the Mental Health Act, we ensure the protection of patients' rights, offering support and assistance to foster their integration into the community and promote the mental well-being of the people. Furthermore, through the comprehensive implementation of the "Five-Point Food Safety Policy" and a range of measures, such as the promotion of food business registration, intensified inspections and sampling, and more stringent penalties, we have steadfastly enforced food safety policies. At the same time, we have taken great strides in advancing Good Manufacturing Practices for pharmaceuticals, bolstering the monitoring of controlled drugs, and elevating the quality management standards of traditional Chinese medicines, thereby fortifying the foundations of medication safety. In 2022, the "Review Meeting of the ROC's Second Report under the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities" in August and the "Review Meeting of the ROC's Second Report under the Convention on the Rights of the Child" in November, were held in Taiwan and the international experts were invited to review the reports. Their expertise promoted the effective implementation of these conventions in Taiwan, while the invaluable insights from diverse stakeholders were warmly embraced. We analyzed global pandemic trends while considering both epidemic resilience and economic activities. The Ministry continues to promote COVID-19 vaccination, providing bivalent second-generation vaccines to the public. We have implemented rolling adjustments to border quarantine and control measures. Residential and community-based care institutions are provided with free rapid test kits, and regular screening measures have been extended to reduce infection risks for vulnerable and high-risk populations. To strengthen economic security, we have increased subsidies for low-income and middle-low-income households, benefiting over 620,000 people. With the goal of "normalcy in daily life, proactive epidemic prevention, and stable opening," we have adjusted the home quarantine close contacts, moderately relaxed mask regulations, and reduced restrictions on hospital visits, gradually moving towards a phased reopening of daily life. The 75th World Health Assembly (WHA) was convened in Geneva, Switzerland, in May 2022. Although Taiwan was not invited to participate in the WHA, MOHW Deputy Minister Li-Feng Lee led the "WHA Action Team" to Geneva. Through hosting professional forums, bilateral meetings, and engaging in related side events, we have continued deepening our collaborative relationships with various countries and international organizations in health. All this serves to convey to the international community Taiwan's determination to persistently engage in international health affairs with professionalism, pragmatism, and a commitment to contribute to international health affairs. To enhance international cooperation and exchange, Taiwan joined the Vaccination Credential Initiative (VCI) led by the United States in May 2022. The MOHW can issue digital vaccination certificates in Smart Health Card (SHC) format that can be certified. Furthermore, the MOHW continues promoting the New Southbound Policy in Healthcare. Based on country risk and different cooperation development of the NSP priority countries with Taiwan, additional centers were established in Vietnam, Malaysia, and Indonesia, expanding the "7 Countries, 7 Centers" to "7 Countries, 10 Centers" program and promoting the internationalization of Taiwan's healthcare industry. As the COVID-19 policy moves towards coexistence and people's lives gradually return to normalcy after the pandemic, the Ministry will continue to prioritize the care for vulnerable groups and improve the welfare service system. We are committed to establishing and perfecting long-term care systems and service resources, optimizing protection services, fostering a harmonious and supportive society, expanding the healthcare system, and safeguarding the rights and interests of the public in seeking medical care. Our mission is to ensure a safe and secure environment for food and drugs and to enhance the health and well-being of the people in Taiwan.
