  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.

Calif. governor to sign bill to OK driverless cars

Excerpt:

Self-driving cars could sound like sci-fi , however they are already cruising California's roadways and can come to be offered commercially within the following years . Google's fleet of a dozen computer-controlled vehicles - primarily Toyota Priuses geared up with self-driving technology - has logged more than 300,000 miles (482,780 kilometers) of self-driving without an accident , the company stated . The new legislation would develop security and performance policies to examination and run autonomous vehicles on state roadways and freeways . Gov. Jerry Brown is expected to sign the legislation in Mountain View at Google, which has been establishing autonomous automobile technology and lobbying for the policies . 65 Photos
Most outrageous cars

Autonomous cars use pcs , sensors and other technology to run individually , however a "driver" could override the autopilot function and take control of the vehicle at any sort of time.
