When performing document search, scientists have specific goals in mind. We conducted interviews with scientists to understand exactly how they were looking for information and working with documents. We found that scientists are generally searching specific discourse elements, not the en- tire document. Therefore, we created an annotation model that can represent the different types...

We define rank-based estimators (R-estimators) for semiparametric time series models in whichthe conditional location and scale depend on a Euclidean parameter, while the innovation density isan infinite-dimensional nuisance. Applications include linear and nonlinear models, featuring eitherhomo- or heteroskedasticity (e.g. AR-ARCH and discretely observed diffusions with jumps). We...
