However, many of these guides often lack empirical studies to validate their recommendations. Previous studies have examined the impact of code styles on developer performance, concluding that some styles have a negative impact on code readability. However, there is a need for more studies that assess other perspectives and the combination of these perspectives on a common basis through experiments. This study aimed to investigate, through eye-tracking, the impact of guidelines in style guides, with a special focus on the PEP8 guide in Python, recognized for its best practices. We conducted a controlled experiment with 32 Python novices, measuring time, the number of attempts, and visual effort through eye-tracking, using fixation duration, fixation count, and regression count for four PEP8 recommendations. Additionally, we conducted interviews to explore the subjects&#39; difficulties and preferences with the programs. The results highlighted that not following the PEP8 Line Break after an Operator guideline increased the eye regression count by 70% in the code snippet where the standard should have been applied. Most subjects preferred the version that adhered to the PEP8 guideline, and some found the left-aligned organization of operators easier to understand. The other evaluated guidelines revealed other interesting nuances, such as the True Comparison, which negatively impacted eye metrics for the PEP8 standard, although subjects preferred the PEP8 suggestion. We recommend practitioners selecting guidelines supported by experimental evaluations. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2408.14566v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2408.14566v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 26 August, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> August 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.16098">arXiv:2303.16098</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2303.16098">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2303.16098">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Computation and Language">cs.CL</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Artificial Intelligence">cs.AI</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Carolina: a General Corpus of Contemporary Brazilian Portuguese with Provenance, Typology and Versioning Information </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Crespo%2C+M+C+R+M">Maria Clara Ramos Morales Crespo</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Rocha%2C+M+L+d+S+J">Maria Lina de Souza Jeannine Rocha</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Sturzeneker%2C+M+L">Mariana Louren莽o Sturzeneker</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Serras%2C+F+R">Felipe Ribas Serras</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=de+Mello%2C+G+L">Guilherme Lamartine de Mello</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Costa%2C+A+S">Aline Silva Costa</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Palma%2C+M+F">Mayara Feliciano Palma</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Mesquita%2C+R+M">Renata Morais Mesquita</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Guets%2C+R+d+P">Raquel de Paula Guets</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=da+Silva%2C+M+M">Mariana Marques da Silva</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Finger%2C+M">Marcelo Finger</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=de+Sousa%2C+M+C+P">Maria Clara Paix茫o de Sousa</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Namiuti%2C+C">Cristiane Namiuti</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Monte%2C+V+M+d">Vanessa Martins do Monte</a> </p> <p class="abstract mathjax"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Abstract</span>: <span class="abstract-short has-text-grey-dark mathjax" id="2303.16098v1-abstract-short" style="display: inline;"> This paper presents the first publicly available version of the Carolina Corpus and discusses its future directions.

Carolina is a large open corpus of Brazilian Portuguese texts under construction using web-as-corpus methodology enhanced with provenance, typology, versioning, and text integrality. The corpus aims at being used both as a reliable source for research in Linguistics and as an important resource for Computer Science research on language models, contributing towards removing Portuguese from the set of low-resource languages. Here we present the construction of the corpus methodology, comparing it with other existing methodologies, as well as the corpus current state: Carolina&#39;s first public version has $653,322,577$ tokens, distributed over $7$ broad types. Each text is annotated with several different metadata categories in its header, which we developed using TEI annotation standards. We also present ongoing derivative works and invite NLP researchers to contribute with their own. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2303.16098v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2303.16098v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">&#9651; Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 28 March, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> March 2023. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">14 pages, 3 figures, 1 appendix</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">MSC Class:</span> 68T50 <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">ACM Class:</span> I.2.7 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.00752">arXiv:1910.00752</a> <span>&nbsp;[<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1910.00752">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/ps/1910.00752">ps</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1910.00752">other</a>]&nbsp;</span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">cs.LG</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Cryptography and Security">cs.CR</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Machine Learning">stat.ML</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Ward2ICU: A Vital Signs Dataset of Inpatients from the General Ward </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Severo%2C+D">Daniel Severo</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Amaro%2C+F">Fl谩vio Amaro</a>, <a href="/search/cs?searchtype=author&amp;query=Hruschka%2C+E+R">Estevam R.

Actions are assessed according to multiple criteria and assigned to one or more categories. A set of reference actions is used for defining each category. The assignment of an action to a given category depends on the comparison of the action to each reference set according to likeness thresholds. Distinct sets of criteria weights, interaction coefficients, and likeness thresholds can be defined per category. We propose to apply Multiple Criteria Hierarchy Process (MCHP) to Cat-SD. An adapted MCHP is proposed to take into account possible interaction effects between criteria structured in a hierarchical way. On the basis of the known deck of cards method, we also consider an imprecise elicitation of parameters permitting to take into account interactions and antagonistic effects between criteria. The elicitation procedure we are proposing can be applied to any Electre method. With the purpose of exploring the assignments obtained by Cat-SD considering possible sets of parameters, we propose to apply the Stochastic Multicriteria Acceptability Analysis (SMAA). The SMAA methodology allows to draw statistical conclusions on the classification of the actions. The proposed method, SMAA-hCat-SD, helps the decision maker to check the effects of the variation of parameters on the classification at different levels of the hierarchy. We propose also a procedure, based on the concept of loss function, to obtain a final classification fulfilling some requirements given by the decision maker and taking into account the hierarchy of criteria and the probabilistic assignments obtained applying SMAA. Also this procedure can be applied to any classification Electre method. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1812.08596v2-abstract-full').style.display
