چکیده

English. The inclusion of semantic features in the stylometric analysis of literary texts appears to be poorly investigated. In this work, we experiment with the application of Distributional Semantics to a corpus of Italian literature to test if words distribution can convey stylistic cues. To verify our hypothesis, we have set up an Authorship Attribution experiment. Indeed, the results we have obtained suggest that the style of an author can reveal itself through words distribution too. Italiano. L’inclusione di caratteristiche semantiche nell’analisi stilometrica di testi letterari appare poco studiata. In questo lavoro, sperimentiamo l’applicazione della Semantica Distribuzionale ad un corpus di letteratura italiana per verificare se la distribuzione delle parole possa fornire indizi stilistici. Per verificare la nostra ipotesi, abbiamo imbastito un esperimento di Authorship Attribution. I risultati ottenuti suggeriscono che, effettivamente, lo stile di un autore pu rivelarsi anche attraverso la distribuzione delle parole.

Application of Frame Semantics to Teaching Seeing and Hearing Vocabulary to Iranian EFL Learners

A term in one language rarely has an absolute synonymous meaning in the same language; besides, it rarely has an equivalent meaning in an L2. English synonyms of seeing and hearing are particularly grammatically and semantically different. Frame semantics is a good tool for discovering differences between synonymous words in L2 and differences between supposed L1 and L2 equivalents. Vocabulary ...

Declarative Semantics in Object-Oriented Software Development - A Taxonomy and Survey

One of the modern paradigms to develop an application is object oriented analysis and design. In this paradigm, there are several objects and each object plays some specific roles in applications. In an application, we must distinguish between procedural semantics and declarative semantics for their implementation in a specific programming language. For the procedural semantics, we can write a ...

The Distribution of Mood An Exploration of Distributional Compositions in Sentiment Classification

Distributional semantics is a research area investigating unsupervised datadriven models for quantifying semantic relatedness. This thesis investigates the possibilities of using distributional semantic models for sentiment classification of utterances, by composing distributional vectors of words in utterances. For evaluation I use a set of manually classified movie reviews. While the purpose ...

Question Answering Based on Distributional Semantics

An NLP application for question answering provides an insight into computer’s understanding of human language. Many areas of NLP have recently built on deep learning and distributional semantic representation. This paper seeks to apply distributional semantic models and convolutional neural networks to the question answering task.

Challenges for Distributional Compositional Semantics

This paper summarises the current state-of-the art in the study of compositionality in distributional semantics, and major challenges for this area. We single out generalised quantifiers and intensional semantics as areas on which to focus attention for the development of the theory. Once suitable theories have been developed, algorithms will be needed to apply the theory to tasks. Evaluation i...
