While the idea that querying mechanisms for complex relationships (otherwise known as Semantic Associations) should be integral to Semantic Web search technologies has recently ga...
In this paper we study the influence of semantics in the information retrieval preprocessing. We concretely compare the reached performance with stemming and semantic lemmatizatio...
When joining information provider peers to a peer-to-peer network, an arbitrary distribution is sub-optimal. In fact, clustering peers by their characteristics, enhances search and...
We present a simple algorithm for clustering semantic patterns based on distributional similarity and use cluster memberships to guide semi-supervised pattern discovery. We apply ...
This paper presents a comparison of three computational approaches to selectional preferences: (i) an intuitive distributional approach that uses second-order co-occurrence of pre...
