On this criterion, words such as "increase," which has a first definition that is not uniquely spatial, were not considered spatial; however, words such as "growth," which has a first definition referring uniquely to a change in size, were.
The words were selected based upon the following criterion: words with 1 syllable, a log of the hyperspace analog of language (HAL) frequency from 5 to 10 [58], and a lexical decision reaction time of less than 600 ms. From this criterion, 400 words were selected for additional screening.
For months, the Tea Party cases sat on the desk of a lone specialist, who used "political sounding" criteria — words like "patriots," "we the people" — as a way to search efficiently through the flood of applications for groups that might not qualify for exemptions, according to the I.R.S. inspector general.
But the stated selection criteria, worded in simplistic language, appear to qualify a large number of the members of a given calling for honors and thus solicitation for those plaques.
Instead of using all the words in a document as features we only used words from parts of the document that correspond to PICO, along with the criteria words, thus reducing our dimension.
Theoretical specificity of the systems was investigated using BLAST against the NCBI nucleotide database with very loose match criteria (word-size = 7, E-cutoff = 1000, match/mismatch cost +1/-1, gap cost 5/2).
It has been demonstrated [e.g., Perea et al., 2004] that participants change their decision criteria when word frequency is blocked, so that in pure blocks of high-frequency words decisions can be made based on familiarity more than on unique word identification.
An earlier version used the word "criteria" where "criterion" was required.
Beyond that, Ms. Smith said, it was difficult to put her criteria into words.
Most decision making methods used to evaluate a system or demonstrate the weak and strength points are based on fuzzy sets and evaluate the criteria with words that are modeled with fuzzy sets.
