This weekly engineering report covers February 29th to March 3rd 2013, which was week 9. It provides a status update on the TPS +1 project from the engineering team. In 3 sentences or less, the document summarized the key activities and progress made on the project during that week.
This document contains a 20 question chemistry test covering topics in units 1 and 2 on basic chemistry concepts and atomic structure. Unit 1 questions cover chemical formulas, molar mass, important scientists, the number of molecules in a gas, and concentration calculations. Unit 2 questions cover electronic configurations, the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, quantum numbers, de Broglie wavelength, Pauli's exclusion principle, and radiation energy relationships. The test contains multiple choice, short answer, and calculation questions evaluating fundamental chemistry understandings.
This document summarizes a presentation given by Jay Craig, Senior Vice President and Controller of ArvinMeritor, at the JPMorgan Harbour Auto Conference on August 6, 2007. The presentation discusses ArvinMeritor's financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2007, including earnings of $0.25 per share before special items. It also provides guidance for full year 2007 EPS of $0.75 to $0.80 before special items. The presentation addresses questions about free cash flow and the sale of the Emissions Technologies business unit.
Wrapper induction construct wrappers automatically to extract information f...George Ang

Wrapper induction is a technique to automatically generate wrappers to extract information from web sources. It involves learning extraction rules from labeled examples to construct a wrapper as a finite state machine or set of delimiters. Two main wrapper induction systems are WIEN, which defines wrapper classes including LR, and STALKER, which uses a more expressive model with extraction rules and landmarks to handle structure hierarchically. Remaining challenges include selecting informative examples, generating label pages automatically, and developing more expressive models.
This document summarizes a tutorial given by Bing Liu on opinion mining and summarization. The tutorial covered several key topics in opinion mining including sentiment classification at the document and sentence level, feature-based opinion mining and summarization, comparative sentence extraction, and opinion spam detection. The tutorial provided an overview of the field of opinion mining and abstraction as well as summaries of various approaches to tasks such as sentiment classification using machine learning methods and feature scoring.

The document provides an overview of Huffman coding, a lossless data compression algorithm. It begins with a simple example to illustrate the basic idea of assigning shorter codes to more frequent symbols. It then defines key terms like entropy and describes the Huffman coding algorithm, which constructs an optimal prefix code from the frequency of symbols in the data. The document discusses how the algorithm works, its advantages in achieving compression close to the source entropy, and some limitations. It also covers applications of Huffman coding like image compression.

The document describes the DustBuster algorithm for discovering DUST rules - rules that transform one URL into another URL that contains similar content. The algorithm takes as input a list of URLs from a website and finds valid DUST rules without requiring any page fetches. It detects likely DUST rules based on a large support principle and small buckets principle. It then eliminates redundant rules and validates the remaining rules using a sample of URLs to identify rules that transform URLs with similar content. Experimental results on logs from two websites show that DustBuster is able to discover DUST rules that can help improve crawling efficiency.
The document discusses techniques for optimizing front-end web performance. It provides examples of how much time is spent loading different parts of top websites, both with empty caches and full caches. The "performance golden rule" is that 80-90% of end-user response time is spent on the front-end. The document also outlines Yahoo's 14 rules for performance optimization, which include making fewer HTTP requests, using content delivery networks, adding Expires headers, gzipping components, script and CSS placement, and more.
