In this paper we study the relationships between logic programming and functional programming, trying to answer the following basic question: to what extent is logic programming j...
We present a novel approach to recognizing Textual nt. Structural features are constructed from abstract tree descriptions, which are automatically extracted from syntactic depend...
In this paper we consider the extensions of description logics that were proposed to represent uncertain or vague knowledge, focusing on the fuzzy and possibilistic formalisms. We ...

The construction process is subject to an array of influences, both from internal and external environments, which makes the process performance uncertain and difficult to predict...
