A software architecture that interfaces a concurrent logic programming system to a Prolog database machine is described. The concurrent logic programming system connects a guarded clause inference engine with a definite clause inference engine to support concurrent execution of mutually invoking guarded and definite clause programs. An interface to a Prolog database machine allows the concurren...

fork in the road clauses and waiver clauses in investment treaties are supposed to minimize the number of parallel proceedings in foreign investment disputes. while, fork in the road clauses preclude investors from further litigation or arbitration once the first dispute settlement mechanism is triggered, in waiver clauses, domestic litigation can be followed by treaty arbitration regarding the...

A dependency parsing method based on sentence segmentation into clauses has been proposed and confirmed to be effective. In this method, dependency parsing is executed in two stages: at the clause level and the sentence level. However, since a sentence can not be segmented into complete clauses, in the past research, a unit sandwiched between two clause-end boundaries (clause boundary unit) was...

The following terminology will be used. The clause containing the ellipsis (dann besbI£he ieh immer den Peter "then I always -vts# Peter" in ( 1b)) is called ellipsis clause. The constituent --other than dann ("then"), immer ("always") and possibly other particles-that remains expressed in the ellipsis clause is called the remnant (den Peter "the Peter") . The clause from which the elided infor...

paper presents the identification of clause boundary for the Urdu language. We have used Conditional Random Field as the classification method and the clause markers. The clause markers play the role to detect the type of subordinate clause, which is with or within the main clause. If there is any misclassification after testing with different sentences then more rules are identified to get hig...

This paper reports about the development of clause identification and classification techniques for Bengali language. A syntactic rule based model has been used to identify the clause boundary. For clause type identification a Conditional random Field (CRF) based statistical model has been used. The clause identification system and clause classification system demonstrated 73% and 78% precision...
