Topic: Adaptation (disambiguation)

	Adaptation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A biological adaptation is an anatomical structure, physiological process or behavioral trait of an organism that has evolved over a period of time by the process of natural selection such that it increases the expected long-term reproductive success of the organism.
		Adaptation can be viewed as taking place over geological time, or within the lifetime of one individual or a group.
		Structural adaptations are special body parts of an organism that help it to survive in its natural habitat, for example, its skin colour, shape and body covering.

		The result, "Adaptation," is an occasionally brilliant, sporadically hilarious, inside-filmmaking burlesque very much in the tradition of Kaufman and director Spike Jonze's "Being John Malkovich," and a movie that comes excitingly close to being some kind of masterpiece of surrealism.
		A biological adaptation is an anatomical structure, physiological process or behavioral trait that has evolved over a period of time by the process of natural selection that increases the likely hood of producing larger numbers of offspring or its reproductive success.
		Adaptation was also the title of a movie starring Nicolas Cage and Meryl Streep released in 2002.

	Temporal and orientational effects on adaptation to the Necker cube
		In the debate about adaptational phenomena involving ambiguous figures, some data suggest that adaptation not only occurs to a perceived interpretation of a bistable stimulus, but also if the interpretation to which the participant adapts is not actually seen.
		After evidence for adaptation to both alternatives on a preconscious level with stimuli as diverse as motion quartets and dot lattices, it is interesting to test whether the same principles apply for one of the oldest and most remarkable multistable patterns, the Necker cube.
		In the light of the research on adaptation, the strong determination of the disambiguation by the orientation invokes one hypothesis concerning the absence of an adaptation effect after perception of the unbiased configuration, A2.

	Adaptation. - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Where real life ends and adaptation begins is the question, as Orlean herself (Meryl Streep) and the orchid thief, John Laroche (Chris Cooper), are drawn into the story.
		I was starting to think that the reason it mattered to care so passionately about something is that it whittles the world down to a more manageable size.
		As he came under increasing pressure to turn in a screenplay, the "adaptation" became a story of a screenwriter's attempt to write a screenplay about a book that can't be adapted into a screenplay.

		It is based on the premiss that one way to improve the performance of such systems is through increased, and more flexible, human intervention.
		To this end a human-WSD program interface, WASPS is being developed for use by lexicographers in organizing corpus data in the drawing up of new dictionary entries.
		A by-product of this activity will be an accurate sense disambiguation program.

		The word culture, from the Latin root colere (to inhabit, to cultivate, or to honor), generally refers to patterns of human activity and the symbolic structures that give such activity significance.
		Culture changes dynamically and people can (must?) teach and learn culture, making it a potentially rapid form of adaptation to change in physical conditions.
		Anthropologists thus distinguish between material culture and symbolic culture, not only because each reflects different kinds of human activity, but also because they constitute different kinds of data that require different methodologies.

		Includes a Darwinian model of language evolution and a measure of ambiguity and the need for word sense disambiguation.
		An explanation is suggested for why POS tags contribute less to higher order grammatical constructs.
		We propose a measure of those needs for word sense disambiguation (WSD) that can be addressed by tagging (part-of-speech disambiguation capabilities); some example terms are analyzed using this measure of ambiguity, and specific degrees of ambiguity are proposed, including unambiguous, minimally ambiguous, moderately ambiguous, and highly ambiguous.
