This paper presents the strategy and design of a highly efficient semiautomatic method for labelling the semantic features of common nouns, using semantic relationships between wo...
We give a formal semantics for a highly expressive language for representing temporal relationships and events. This language, which we call Versatile Event Logic (VEL), provides ...
Given their simple nature, the success of keyword based retrieval systems is astonishing. Although these methods seemingly only process words (and their word counts), they rely on...
