Ontologies are set to play a key r^ole in the "Semantic Web" by providing a source of shared and precisely defined terms that can be used in descriptions of web resource...
Bootstrapping semantics from text is one of the greatest challenges in natural language learning. We first define a word similarity measure based on the distributional pattern of ...
Coordination in natural language hamlmrs ef tieient parsing, especially due to the multiple and mostly unintended candidate conjuncts/disjmmts in a given sentence that shows struc...
We present a knowledge and context-based system for parsing and translating natural language and evaluate it on sentences from the Wall Street Journal. Applying machine learning t...
We propose a new semantics for modeling belief, mixing conncepts from qualitative probabilistic and classical possible world accounts. Our belief structures are coherent sets of q...
