The Semantic Web is a natural evolution of the Web, and this book covers the URL-based Web architecture and Semantic Web in detail. It has a robust empirical side which has an impact on industry. Social Semantics: The Search for Meaning on the Web discusses how the largest problem facing the Semantic Web is the problem of identity and reference, and how these are the results of a larger general theory of meaning. This book hypothesizes that statistical semantics can solve these problems, illustrated by case studies ranging from a pioneering study of tagging systems to using the Semantic Web to boost the results of commercial search engines. Social Semantics: The Search for Meaning on the Web targets practitioners working in the related fields of the semantic web, search engines, information retrieval, philosophers of language and more. Advanced-level students and researchers focusing on computer science will also find this book valuable as a secondary text or reference book. 410 0$aSemantic Web and Beyond, Computing for Human Experience,$x1559-7474 ;$v13 606 $aNatural language processing (Computer science) 606 $aSemantic computing 606 $aSemantic Web 615 0$aNatural language processing (Computer science) 615 0$aSemantic computing. 615 0$aSemantic Web. 676 $a300 676 $a300.1 676 $a300/.1 700 $aHalpin$b Harry$0862259 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437573103321 996 $aSocial Semantics$92503786 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01292nas 2200421- 450 001 9910341859003321 005 20230511213018.0 011 $a2209-170X 024 8 $aISSN/MAR2018 035 $a(OCoLC)1028021144 035 $a(CKB)4100000009375454 035 $a(CONSER)--2019243161 035 $a(DE-599)ZDB3002824-3 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000009375454 100 $a20180309a20189999 --- a 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur||||||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aAustralasian journal of plastic surgery 210 1$aSt Leonards, NSW :$cAustralian Society of Plastic Surgeons,$d[2018]- 215 $a1 online resource 300 $aRefereed/Peer-reviewed 517 1 $aAJOPS 606 $aSurgery, Plastic 606 $aPlastic Surgery Procedures 608 $aPeriodical. 608 $aPeriodicals.$2fast 615 12$aSurgery, Plastic. 615 22$aPlastic Surgery Procedures. 712 02$aAustralian Society of Plastic Surgeons, 712 02$aAustralasian Foundation for Plastic Surgery, 712 02$aNew Zealand Association of Plastic Surgeons, 906 $aJOURNAL 912 $a9910341859003321 996 $aAustralasian journal of plastic surgery$92570572 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03440nam 22005295 450 001 9910483318303321 005 20240326102454.0 010 $a9789813342323 010 $a9813342323 024 7 $a10.1007/978-981-33-4232-3 035 $a(CKB)4100000011773242 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6482023 035 $a(DE-He213)978-981-33-4232-3 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011773242 100 $a20210217d2021 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aChallenges in Language Testing Around the World $eInsights for language test users /$fedited by Betty Lanteigne, Christine Coombe, James Dean Brown 205 $a1st ed. 2021. 210 1$aSingapore :$cSpringer Nature Singapore :$cImprint: Springer,$d2021. 215 $a1 online resource (553 pages) 311 08$a9789813342316 311 08$a9813342315 327 $a1.

A Call for an Evidence-based Approach to Language Testing and Realignment of Instruction. 330 $aThis book combines insights from language assessment literacy and critical language testing through critical analyses and research about challenges in language assessment around the world. It investigates problematic practices in language testing which are relevant to language test users such as language program directors, testing centers, and language teachers, as well as teachers-in-training in Graduate Diploma and Master of Arts in Applied Linguistics programs. These issues involve aspects of language testing such as test development, test administration, scoring, and interpretation/use of test results. Chapters in this volume discuss insights about language testing policy, testing world languages, developing program-level language tests and tests of specific language skills, and language assessment literacy. In addition, this book identifies two needs in language testing for further examination: the need for collaboration between language test developers, language test users, andlanguage users, and the need to base language tests on real-world language use. 606 $aLanguage and languages$xStudy and teaching 606 $aEducational tests and measurements 606 $aLanguage Education 606 $aAssessment and Testing 615 0$aLanguage and languages$xStudy and teaching. 615 0$aEducational tests and measurements. 615 14$aLanguage Education. 615 24$aAssessment and Testing. 676 $a418.0076 702 $aLanteigne$b Betty 702 $aCoombe$b Christine A$g(Christine Anne),$f1962- 702 $aBrown$b James Dean 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483318303321 996 $aChallenges in language testing around the world$92846188 997 $aUNINA
