On March 14, 2016 the Unit for Criticism & Interpretive Theory (UIUC) hosted the Unit Faculty Fellows Symposium. The first panel of the day featured Samantha Frost, Associate Professor of Political Science and Gender & Women's Studies,... more
Abstracts of 250 words are invited to take part in guaranteed Stream 17 on the topic on reading, writing, and interpreting affect. Abstracts can be single-authored or co-authored. The final deadline for submissions is Thursday, March... more
If, as George Watson argues, heresy is a 'doctrine or opinion … at variance with those generally accepted as authoritative', and a heretic 'proclaims something the world does not admit and hesitates to even consider', one could argue that... more

A careful reading of Yeats’s oeuvre reveals a form of poetic and affective alchemy that places the transformative capacity of joy at its heart. Speaking at an affective level, we might define transmutation as the modification of base... more
Affect theory is not a settled method nor neatly delineated discipline. It is a dynamic field of scholarship that explores bodies, worlds, and forces that move and motivate things into relational existence. This chapter explores the... more
Susheel Kumar Sharma vacillates between hope and despair in an attempt to grapple with an unjust world. The Door is Half Open not only speaks about pain, desperation, and injustice, but also shows how hope and peace are essential to... more
Programming languages that support multiple dispatch rely on an expressive notion of subtyping to specify method applicability. In these languages, type annotations on method declarations are used to select, out of a potentially large set... more
It is generally considered that object-oriented (OO) languages provide weaker support for generic programming (GP) as compared with functional languages such as Haskell or SML. There were several comparative studies which showed this. But... more
Dynamic programming languages face semantic and performance challenges in the presence of features, such as eval, that can inject new code into a running program. The Julia programming language introduces the novel concept of world age to... more
It is a paper for the Artificial Intelligence based Software which does sentiment analysis to the reviews in renowned online stores and gives a short summery of conclusion
From coastal landscapes to biodiversity remote sensing can on the one hand capture all the natural heritage elements and on the other hand can help in maintaining protected species. In a typical remote sensing application, a few thousands... more
Lieder and Griffiths rightly urge that computational cognitive models be constrained by resource usage, but they should go further. The brain's primary function is to regulate resource usage. As a consequence, resource usage should... more
Bayesian program learning provides a general approach to human-level concept learning in artificial intelligence. However, most priors over powerful programming languages make searching for a high-scoring program intractable, and... more

Probabilistic programs with dynamic computation graphs can define measures over sample spaces with unbounded dimensionality, which constitute programmatic analogues to Bayesian nonparametrics. Owing to the generality of this model class,... more
