REBEL: Reconfigurable Block Encryption Logic

Description: This paper discusses reconfigurable block encryption logic. Existing block cipher function designs have tended to deploy the secret bits in a specific and limited way. The authors generalize the role of the secret as truth tables of Boolean gates in a carefully designed logic schema.

Grid-based Coordinated Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks

Description: This paper discusses grid-based coordinated routing in wireless sensor networks and compares the energy available in the network over time for different grid sizes. The authors explore the quality of service of wireless sensor networks, how the coordinator nodes are elected, and the size of the grid area that will minimize the total energy consumption and extend the lifetime of the network.

Characterizing Humour: An Exploration of Features in Humorous Texts

Description: This paper investigates the problem of automatic humor recognition, and provides an in-depth analysis of two of the most frequently observed features of humorous text: human-centeredness and negative polarity. Through experiments performed on two collections of humorous texts, the authors show that these properties of verbal humor are consisted across different data sets.

Using Wikipedia for Automatic Word Sense Disambiguation

Description: This paper describes a method for generating sense-tagged data using Wikipedia as a source of sense annotations. Through word sense disambiguation experiments, the authors show that the Wikipedia-based sense annotations are reliable and can be used to construct accurate sense classifiers.

SemEval-2007 Task 14: Affective Text

Description: The "Affective Text" task focuses on the classification of emotions and valence (positive/negative polarity) in news headlines, and is meant as an exploration of the connection between emotions and lexical semantics. In this paper, the authors describe the data set used in the evaluation and the results obtained by the participating systems.

UNT: SubFinder: Combining Knowledge Sources for Automatic Lexical Substitution

Description: This paper describes the University of North Texas SubFinder system. The system is able to provide the most likely set of substitutes for a word in a given context, by combining several techniques and knowledge sources. SubFinder has successfully participated in the best and out of ten (oot) tracks in the SEMEVAL lexical substitution task, consistently ranking in the first or second place.
