  1. Filaments of Meaning in Word Space: Advances in Information Retrieval (2008), pp. 531-538.Word space models, in the sense of vector space models built on distributional data taken from texts, are used to model semantic relations between words. We argue that the high dimensionality of typical vector space models lead to unintuitive effects on modeling likeness of meaning and that the local structure of word spaces is where interesting semantic relations reside. We show that the local structure of word spaces has substantially different dimensionality and character than the global space and that this structure shows potential to be exploited for further semantic analysis using methods for local analysis of vector space structure rather than globally scoped methods typically in use today such as singular value decomposition or principal component analysis.

  3. Using standard Internet Protocols and applications in space: Computer Networks, Vol. 47, No. 5. (5 April 2005), pp. 603-650.This paper discusses approaches for using standard Internet technologies to meet the communication needs of future space missions. It summarizes work done by the Operating Missions as Nodes on the Internet (OMNI) project at NASA/GSFC since 1997. That project arose from a small group of engineers who had been involved with building NASA communication systems for over 20 years. Since NASA needed communication systems for space long before the Internet evolved, NASA developed many custom protocols and communication techniques to meet its "space specific" communication needs. However, as the Internet evolved, it needed to address all of the same communication issues of errors, delays, and intermittent links. Those challenges may not have seemed space related, but the solutions developed can be used to address space communication issues. The key is to select the appropriate Internet Protocols that can support space communication while also providing direct interoperabili ty with the terrestrial Internet.This paper uses a layered approach to discuss all aspects of using Internet technologies in space. It starts with the low-level physical, data link and data routing issues related to using Internet Protocols to support basic spacecraft communications . After identifying options for supporting basic datagram delivery in space, the paper describes issues for selecting transport protocols and applications to meet various mission data delivery needs. Information is provided throughout the paper to identify key implementation issues and provide information on the current status of products in each area. Finally, current implementation and usage of these protocols in both spacecraft and ground systems are discussed.

  5. Space and Place: The Perspective of Experience: (08 February 2001)Geography On the 25th anniversary of its publication, a new edition of this foundational work on human geography. In the twenty years since its original publication, Space and Place has not only established the discipline of human geography, but it has proven influential in such diverse fields as theatre, literature, anthropology, psychology, and theology. Eminent geographer Yi-Fu Tuan considers the ways in which people feel and think about space, how they form attachments to home, neighborhood, and nation, and how feelings about space and place are affected by the sense of time. He suggests that place is security and space is freedom: we are attached to the one and long for the other. Whether he is considering sacred versus "biased" space, mythical space and place, time in experiential space, or cultural attachments to space, Tuan's analysis is thoughtful and insightful throughout. Until retiring in 1998, Yi-Fu Tuan was a professor of geography at the University of Wisconsin-Madi son. He is ranked among the country's most distinguished cultural geographers and has earned numerous honors, among them a Guggenheim Fellowship, the Bracken Award for landscape architecture, and an award for meritorious contribution to geography from the Association of American Geographers. He was recently named the Lauréat d'Honneur 2000 of the International Geographers Union. He is the author of many essays and books, including Escapism (1998) and Cosmos and Hearth (Minnesota, 1999).
