  • Comparing the negotiation of attitudes in audience-sensitive art exhibition labels

    Siyu Yao, Yumin Chen•ARTICLE•Text and Talk•2025

    This article examines how audience-sensitive art exhibition labels engage visitors of different age groups – children and adults – from an appraisal perspective. The potential of evaluative language and emotionally charged expressions in enhancing visitor engagement is increasingly recognized by museum professionals, while it has received limited in-depth exploration in the research literature. A corpus of 56 audience-sensitive labels from an exh…

  • I'm a female-PhD and I'm married

    Rongji Zhang, Yumin Chen et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Gender Studies•2024•Cited by: 1•References: 37

    While most of the studies have focused on how female PhDs are stereotypically depicted as a sexless third gender and an ultimate leftover in Chinese mainstream media representation, little attention has been paid to how such negative stereotypic representation and its underlying patriarchy are resisted. Drawing on feminist critical discourse analysis (Lazar, 2005, 2014) and legitimization strategies (van Leeuwen, 2007, 2017), this study sets out …

  • Using an Eigenvector Spatial Filtering-Based Spatially Varying Coefficient Model to Analyze the Spatial Heterogeneity of Covid-19 and Its Influencing Factors in Mainland China

    Open Access•Meijie Chen, Yumin Chen et al.•ARTICLE•ISPRS International Journal of…•2022

    The COVID-19 pandemic has led to many deaths and economic disruptions across the world. Several studies have examined the effect of corresponding health risk factors in different places, but the problem of spatial heterogeneity has not been adequately addressed. The purpose of this paper was to explore how selected health risk factors are related to the pandemic infection rate within different study extents and to reveal the spatial varying chara…

  • Reconstructing History and Culture in Game Discourse

    Open Access•Siyu Yao, Yumin Chen et al.•ARTICLE•Games and Culture•2022

    Honor of Kings (HOK) is currently the most popular yet controversial mobile game in China. It is deeply inspired by Chinese history and culture, while its heroic backstories have been criticized for potential distortion of historical views. Drawing upon Systemic Functional Linguistics, this study explores the reconstruction in ideational and interpersonal meanings through comparing heroic stories with historical accounts. It reveals that HOK game…

  • Influence of Legislation on Public Attitude towards Animal Welfare in Taiwan

    Shih-Yun Wu, Yi-Te Lai et al.•ARTICLE•Society and Animals•2022•References: 2

    A face-to-face national survey in Taiwan was conducted to reflect the influence of animal welfare legislation on attitudes of the public ( n = 1,099) towards animal welfare. Greater awareness and knowledge of the law correlated with a better attitude towards and preference for relevant animal protection issues in respondents. The lack of knowledge on animal welfare concepts, animal welfare products, and related labels among respondents appears to…

  • The recontextualization of art exhibition text panels for children

    Siyu Yao, Yumin Chen•ARTICLE•Social Semiotics•2022•References: 5

    It is currently part of the mission of art museums to actively involve children in learning experiences and empower them through a variety of programmes – including developing text panels specialized for children. To date, we have only a limited understanding of the semiotic resources in audience-sensitive exhibition text panels. Drawing upon Systemic Functional Linguistics, this paper analyses and compares 56 text panels in an exhibition from th…

  • A New Algorithm for Calculating the Flow Path Curvature (C) from the Square-Grid Digital Elevation Model (DEM)

    Open Access•Qianjiao Wu, Yumin Chen et al.•ARTICLE•ISPRS International Journal of…•2020

    This paper proposes a flow-path-network-based (FPN-based) algorithm, constructed from a square-grid digital elevation model (DEM) to improve the simulation of the flow path curvature (C). First, the flow-path network model was utilized to obtain an FPN. Then, a flow-path-network-flow-path-curvature (FPN-C) algorithm was proposed to estimate C from the FPN. The experiments consisted of two sections: (1) quantitatively evaluating the accuracy using…

  • A Postearthquake Multiple Scene Recognition Model Based on Classical SSD Method and Transfer Learning

    Open Access•Zhiqiang Xu, Yumin Chen et al.•ARTICLE•ISPRS International Journal of…•2020

    The recognition of postearthquake scenes plays an important role in postearthquake rescue and reconstruction. To overcome the over-reliance on expert visual interpretation and the poor recognition performance of traditional machine learning in postearthquake scene recognition, this paper proposes a postearthquake multiple scene recognition (PEMSR) model based on the classical deep learning Single Shot MultiBox Detector (SSD) method. In this paper…

  • Spatial Difference of Transit-Based Accessibility to Hospitals by Regions Using Spatially Adjusted Anova

    Open Access•Meijie Chen, Yumin Chen et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2019

    This paper proposes a spatial difference analysis method for evaluating transit-based accessibility to hospitals using spatially adjusted ANOVA. This method specializes in examining spatial variations of accessibility to hospitals by regions (i.e. administrative districts or subdistricts). The spatial lag model is applied to adjust traditional ANOVA, which reduces spatial dependency and avoids false rejection to null hypothesis. Multiple comparis…

  • Eigenvector Spatial Filtering Regression Modeling of Ground PM2.5 Concentrations Using Remotely Sensed Data

    Open Access•Jingyi Zhang, Bin Li et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2018

    This paper proposes a regression model using the Eigenvector Spatial Filtering (ESF) method to estimate ground PM 2.5 concentrations. Covariates are derived from remotely sensed data including aerosol optical depth, normal differential vegetation index, surface temperature, air pressure, relative humidity, height of planetary boundary layer and digital elevation model. In addition, cultural variables such as factory densities and road densities a…

  • The Mediation of Multimodal Affordances on Willingness to Communicate in the English as a Foreign Language Classroom

    Open Access•Jian-E-Peng, Jian-E Peng et al.•ARTICLE•TESOL Quarterly•2017•Cited by: 4•References: 28

    Willingness to communicate (WTC) in a second language class has been shown to be transient and situation-dependent. Previous studies mostly elicited data from learners' self-reports through interviews or diaries, and the data analyses were largely confined to the medium of language, marginalizing other semiotic resources such as gesture or movement. The nature of human communication, however, is multimodal, which entails the processing of differe…

  • Comparing the semiotic construction of attitudinal meanings in the multimodal manuscript, original published and adapted versions of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

    Open Access•Yumin Chen•ARTICLE•Semiotica•2017•References: 6

    This paper analyzes the attitudinal variations in multimodal literary works by comparing the manuscript, the original published edition, and eight contemporary adapted versions of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland . Drawing upon the appraisal system of attitude (Martin and White 2005, The language of evaluation: Appraisal in English . London: Palgrave) and the social semiotic approach to visual images (Kress and Van Leeuwen 2006, Reading images: T…

  • Reconstructing classical Chinese fables through modern adaptations

    Yumin Chen•ARTICLE•Social Semiotics•2016•Cited by: 1•References: 2

    This paper analyses and compares classical Chinese fables and their modern adaptations in the reconstruction of experiential meaning and mediation of attitudinal stance. Drawing upon systemic functional linguistics with a particular focus on transitivity, projection and appraisal, the analysis shows that the adapted texts expand the original in various ways. Experientially the adaptations expand the classical fables through an enhanced descriptio…

  • Exploring dialogic engagement with readers in multimodal EFL textbooks in China

    Open Access•Yumin Chen•ARTICLE•Visual Communication•2010•Cited by: 4•References: 2

    This article examines, from a social semiotic perspective, how multimodal resources in EFL textbooks are deployed to enable dialogic engagement with readers. A range of multimodal features in the textbooks, including illustrations and the labelling on illustrations, dialogue balloons, incomplete jointly-constructed texts, and highlighting, are identified as enabling editor voice to negotiate meanings with character and reader voice. Drawing upon …
