On deriving aspectual sense

Deriving a Web-Scale Common Sense Fact Database

The fact that birds have feathers and ice is cold seems trivially true. Yet, most machine-readable sources of knowledge either lack such common sense facts entirely or have only limited coverage. Prior work on automated knowledge base construction has largely focused on relations between named entities and on taxonomic knowledge, while disregarding common sense properties. In this paper, we sho...

Aspectual Predesign

This paper presents an extension of the Klagenfurt Conceptual Predesign Model (KCPM) allowing taking into account the non-functional requirements to the system. These requirements are treated as crosscutting concerns. This process could be also seen as an addition to the AOSD paradigm that brings the gap between the Aspect-Oriented Requirement Engineering and Aspect-Oriented Modeling. The exten...

Aspectual Embedding

In this paper a new approach to the determination of aspectual class on a sentential level is proposed. It turns out that the composition of a new aspectual class can be understood as an embedding of the class introduced by the verb into a new more complex situation. The VP to bake apple pies, for instance, can therefore be presented as an iteration of several baking an apple pie-events which, ...
