title: Corpus Creation for Sentiment Analysis in Code-Mixed Tamil-English Text

description: Understanding the sentiment of a comment from a video or an image is an essential task in many applications. Sentiment analysis of a text can be useful for various decision-making processes. One such application is to analyse the popular sentiments of videos on social media based on viewer comments. However, comments from social media do not follow strict rules of grammar, and they contain mixing of more than one language, often written in non-native scripts. Non-availability of annotated code-mixed data for a low-resourced language like Tamil also adds difficulty to this problem. To overcome this, we created a gold standard Tamil-English code-switched, sentiment-annotated corpus containing 15,744 comment posts from YouTube. In this paper, we describe the process of creating the corpus and assigning polarities. We present inter-annotator agreement and show the results of sentiment analysis trained on this corpus as a benchmark.

title: Grasslands study on level of distribution of Asclepias syrica

description: The study of 50 samples of Asclepias syrica was observed through a continuous measurement in centimeters along a transect tape. Research was conducted at the York University Arboretum grasslands on Wednesday, September 21st 2015. The study looked into the concentration of Asclepias syrica in areas of growth, along with the ordinal measurements of how many leaves and flowers each individual unit had. Study location in the grasslands was randomized by walking 20 meters forward from the outskirts of the area, placing a transect tape on the ground and running the tape until at least 50 samples of the species being observed were within one meter of the tape on either side. Looking at the data, there is no correlation between plant density and number of leaves and flowers on the plant. Leave and flower numbers appear to be random, with both many and few numbers of leaves and flowers appearing in areas of high and low density.

title: Distribution of Adult Trees in York University Woodlot

description: Data for this experiment was collected around 4:00 pm on Tuesday September 20, 2015 in a woodlot on York University's Keele campus. It was a hot and sunny day, but the woodlot was cooler and shady due to the cover of the trees. A transect measuring tape was laid down from the edge of the woodlot to the center. It was walked along until an adult tree (one with a diameter of 0.2 m or greater) was found within two meters of the transect, on either side. The tree's diameter at breast height (DBH) was then measured using another transect measuring tape. The tree was then assigned a condition rating of 0, 1 or 2: 0 being dead (no branches with leaves), 1 being alive, but with limited growth (three or less branches with leaves), and 2 being very healthy (more than three branches with leaves). Following this, the experimenter returned to the transect and walked along it until the next closest adult tree. The tree had its DBH measured and also assigned a condition rating, both performed using the same methods and conditions as the previous. A transect tape was then used to measure the distance between the two adult trees. When measuring, the transect tape was placed at breast height along the inner-most part of the tree trunks. This experimental data was collected for 10 pairs of trees.

title: Diameter at breast height (DBH) and distance between pair of trees in Danby Woodlot

description: This experiment took place in Danby Woodlot, York University on September 24, 2015 from 2:30-5:00pm. The temperature in the woods was 21 °C and it was partially sunny (enough light to observe the trees). The purpose of the experiment was to observe and compare adult trees (trees that were above 2.5 meters in height) and the closest tree next to it along the 26 meter transect line which was randomly placed in the woodlot. The observations included measuring the diameter of the trees (adult and one next to it) at breast height (1.2 meters from the ground) using a measuring tape. The diameter was found by placing the measuring tape width wise from one edge of the trunk to the other in centimeters (no wrapping tape around trunk). The distance between the trees was measured by finding the distance between both trees at breast height using the measuring tape in centimeters. The conditions of both trees were also observed by using our eyes to determine if the tree was dead (no leaves and large semi attached woodchips on bark), living (15 brown golden leaves or more) or green canopy (less the 15 golden brown leaves). The sample size was 20. The group members of group 4 including myself were Simranjit Kang, Ava Kamali and Katrin Chapkis

title: BIOL 2050 - Lab 2 – Woodlot Data Set 4

description: This experiment took place in York University's Saywell Woodlot on September 21st, 2015 at approximately 3:30pm with group member Anosha Rahmany. The temperature was 21˚C with sunny skies and low humidity. White pine adult trees and White pine saplings were the samples for this experiment. Data was collected by randomly selecting ten White pine adult trees (along a transect) and recording the following for each sample: DBH (ft), canopy coverage (percentage), distance to nearest sapling (ft), and DBH of the sapling (ft). Measurements for the DBH and distance to nearest sapling were obtained by using a transect measuring tape. The canopy coverage was recorded by holding up a square (using fingers) to the sky and estimating the percentage of sky visible in the square.

title: Abundance of Plant Species in the Grasslands on the York University Campus

description: The data was recorded on the York University grasslands. 1m by 1m quadrants were used to isolate an area of the grasslands to record. We counted the number of individuals of a species and repeated this process for all the species within the quadrant. We did not know the name of all the plants, so we classified their species by their physical attribiutes, such as colour. The amount of grass was achieved by estimating the amount of grass in 1/20th of the quadrant and multiplying it by 20. We also estimated the percent of the quadrant that the grass covered and the percent that all the plants covered. This was repeated 24 more times for a total of 25 quadrants.

title: Plant Diversity and Dispersal at Danby Woods Grassland in York University.

description: The data was collected on Monday September 21st, 2015 at 3:00pm at the grassland of Dansby Woods in York University. The temperature was 18°C and it was sunny with clear skies. The area where the field sampling took place had an abundance of plant species such as White Oak, Red Oak, Common Plantain, Common Milkweed, Common Dandelion, Service Oak, and Wild Mustard. The sampling was done in groups of four which included Shahana, Paula, Aziza, and Sahar. Four datasets were collected two from grassland and two from woodlot. This sampling was conducted with the help of Sahar. To record the data a 1m x 1m square quadrat made out of metal was placed randomly on the grassland. For the first quadrat about 5 steps was taken and then a quadrat was placed randomly on the grassland. This was repeated until 25 plots were sampled. The abundance of plants was estimated by doing a very quick count of every individual in the quadrat. The total number of different species was identified by using a plant identification key that was based on features such as colour, shape, and size. The total cover of all vegetation and the total cover of grass was done by observing what was present in the quadrat, and estimating a percentage based on how much of it was occupied.

title: Distribution of Various Plants in the York University Danby Woods

description: On September 21st, 2015 at approximatly 15:00, the students from Chris Lortie's BIOL 2050 clss in Bailey Hewitt's 01 tutorial section, performed an experiment where they were to use quadrats and transects to collect field data in Danby Woods, located in York University. That day, the weather was 21 degrees and was semi-chilly, due to the wind. This experiment was performed in groups of four. My group included myself, Amena, Frankie, and Taylor. I conducted Grassland Data Set 1 using a quadrat. Quadrats are a square frame used to record the abundance inside the area of said square. My partner, Amena, and I used the random number website to collect 25 numbers, which we then used as step counts. Every time a number was generated we would walk that many steps until that number was recahed. We would then use the quadrat, placing it on the ground in front of us and count the number of plants we saw and also examine the diversity of the area inside the square. It is intersting to note that there was more variety, life and a higher count of plants in the middle of the grasslands, as opposed to the ones on the outer portions. We noted spotting the common plantain, common marlow, the common thistle and the common milkweed.

title: Condition of trees in Danby Woodlot at York University using a transect

description: The purpose of this experiment was to determine conditions of trees near the edge of Danby Woods vs. trees in the centre of Danby Woods while learning techniques of collecting field data using a transect. Data was collected at Danby Woods at the York University Keele campus on Monday, September 21, 2015 from 3:30-4:30pm by two researchers named Sahar & Aziza. Sahar would take all the measurements and Aziza would note the measurements. At a temperature of 18°C, the weather was sunny and partially cloudy. At Danby Woods, given the time of year, there were many trees to study as the leaves had not fallen for Autumn, however the woodlot was not in great condition as there were many signs of human littering. First the researchers observed the woodlot for placing the transect tape in a location that would represent the whole woodlot. A 30m transect tape was placed in a straight line from the edge of the woodlot to the centre of the woodlot. Beginning from the edge of woodlot on the right side of the transect tape, the researchers chose 20 trees for 10 pairs that were above 12 feet. Each individual tree’s height was not measured, the trees that were double Sahar’s height would be approximately 12 feet tall. Then using a different transect tape, Sahar measured the distance in between each pair of trees, distance breast height (DBH) of each individual tree. Also, the condition of each individual tree was observed by the naked eye. After the data was collected, the transect tape was retrieved by the researchers. The data indicates that the trees near the edge of the Danby Woods are farther apart and are healthier with either living or large canopy trees. However toward the center of Danby Woods, the trees become closer together with some dead trees.

title: Random Sampling of Plants Using a Transect

description: This data set includes information about 50 dandelion (<em>Taraxacum officinale)</em> plants found along a transect. The transect was placed in a grassland at York University, just west of Danby Woods on Monday, September 21st at 4PM.The weather on this day was sunny with a few clouds, and windy at times. This plant species was chosen for its abundance in this grassland, and its unique leaves. None of the plants had flowers, but the leafs were flat with ridges on the edge, dark green in colour, and a thick midrib. The transect was used for efficiency and to make it easier to collect many plants without needing to move to a different location. The transect was placed randomly north-to-south in the grassland, and plants were analysed starting at the northern most end. The plant was counted if it was within 50 cm (west or east) of the transect, and the distance was marked from the end of the transect. For each of the 50 specimens, the distance from the end of the transect, the height, the number of leaves, and the crowd rating were determined. Lab partners were Alex and Abera. This lab was completed for further understanding of how to use a transect and in which situations it is most useful. This lab also shows how random sampling techniques are used and how to avoid haphazard sampling.

title: Cartoonists of Color Datasets

description: The Cartoonists of Color Dataset and the LGBTQ Cartoonists of Color Dataset are derived from the Cartoonists of Color Database (CoC). Dataset release is the result of a collaboration with CoC Database creator, artist, author, and illustrator MariNaomi. These datasets are provided in order to support folks interested in exploring the data computationally. :: Backstory :: MariNaomi developed the CoC database, “For visibility. For Academia. For inspiration. For community building.” CoC contains contains biographical information (ethnicity, gender, creative roles, location, comic titles, genre, etc.) for 861 cartoonists who identify as non-Caucasian (non-white). The CoC database is a unique resource that holds potential to support a growing conversation on diversity (race, gender, sex) in comics that spans academic, popular, creator, and fan discourse. CoC data was gathered by hand and via completion of an online form. The database continues to grow. :: Data Preparation :: Data derived from the database have been minimally normalized. In some cases, data have not been normalized at all. I leave this to the discretion of the data user, but I would say to tread ethically. While the ethnicity data field contains more than 160 different types, (e.g. "mixed, black", "African American", "African-American + Afro-Bermudian / Irish-American") some of which you could interpret as acceptable candidates for normalization, keep in mind what the act of normalization does. Especially in light of the connection between data point and identity. Take the diversity of the data as a challenge. Strain those data models. Where they don't work, cast them aside. Perhaps make something new. :: Data Summary :: Cartoonists of Color Dataset - contains biographical information for all cartoonists of color 20150912_coc.csv<br>20150912_coc.json LGBTQ Cartoonists of Color Dataset - contains biographical information for the LGBTQ subset of the Cartoonists of Color Dataset 20150912_coc_lgbtq.csv<br>20150912_coc_lgbtq.json :: Acknowledgements :: Source data compiled and maintained by MariNaomi.
