This book consists of a comparative analysis of policy making in Australian and British telecommunications and printing trade unions. It tests empirically the validity of different models of union policy making and behaviour, ...
Between Sound and Spelling : Combining Phonetics and Clustering Algorithms to Improve Target Word Recovery
(Springer Nature, 2014)
In this paper we revisit the task of spell checking focusing on target word recovery. We propose a new approach that relies on phonetic information to improve the accuracy of clustering algorithms in identifying misspellings ...
Using a simulated environment to investigate experiences reported during space travel
(2014)
