Polysemous Codes
This paper considers the problem of approximate nearest neighbor search in the compressed domain. We introduce polysemous codes, which offer both the distance estimation quality of product quantization and the efficient comparison of binary codes with Hamming distance. Their design is inspired by algorithms introduced in the 90’s to construct channel-optimized vector quantizers. At search time,...
متن کاملModeling Quantification with Polysemous Nouns
Babonnaud et al. (2016) introduce a framework for modeling systematic polysemy that combines Lexicalized Tree Adjoining Grammar (LTAG) with frame semantics and Hybrid Logic (HL). The components of the syntax-semantics interface are elementary LTAG trees paired with frame descriptions that are expressed by possibly underspecified HL formulas. A brief review of this framework will be given in Sec...
متن کاملFocus Acoustics in Mandarin Nominals
In addition to deciding what to say, interlocutors have to decide how to say it. One of the important tasks of linguists is then to model how differences in acoustic patterns influence the interpretation of a sentence. In light of previous studies on how prosodic structure convey discourse-level of information in a sentence, this study makes use of a speech production experiment to investigate ...
متن کاملEvents and Modification in Nominals
It is a familiar lesson from physical theory that interactions yield an important probe into structure. In the experiments of Rutherford almost 90 years ago, bits of matter were projected together; the physical properties of their interactions yielded evidence for a nucleus, hidden in the heart of atom. In semantics, the results of Donald Davidson in a famous 1967 paper might be viewed in a sim...
متن کاملEvent Related Nominals
into two categories, depending on whether they retain the event from their verbal base or not. The original observation is due to Chomsky (1970); see also Lees (1960), Marantz (1997), Borer (2003). For English -ation and -ing nominals (e.g., destruction, examination; forming, examining) and for zero-derived nominals (e.g., form, exam), this has led to distinguishing two classes of nominals: com...
