Through tile alignment of definitions fronl two or more dilTerent sources, it is possible to retrieve pairs of words that can be used indistinguishably in the same sentence without changing tile meaning of the concept. As lexicographic work exploits common defining schemes, such as genus and dilTerentia, a concept is simihu'ly defined by different dictionaries. The dilTerence in words used betw...

‎in this paper‎, ‎an approach based on statistical spline model (ssm) and collocation method is proposed to solve volterra-fredholm integral equations‎. ‎the set of collocation nodes is chosen so that the points yield minimal error in the nodal polynomials‎. ‎under some standard assumptions‎, ‎we establish the convergence property of this approach‎. ‎numerical results on some problems are given...

this study focused on the effect of teaching collocations on the awareness of two affective dimensions, evaluation and potency dimensions, of deep vocabulary knowledge as well as the general vocabulary knowledge of efl students. sixty intermediate efl female adult learners participated in this study; they were chosen among 90 students through the pet and a general vocabulary knowledge test. the...

: This study investigated the impact of audio-visual input enhancement teaching techniques on improving English as Foreign Language (EFL) learnersˈ collocation learning as well as their accuracy concerning collocation use in narrative writing. In addition, it compared the impact and efficiency of audio-visual input enhancement in two learning contexts, namely traditional and mo...

This paper proposes a semi-supervised approach for WSD in Word-Class based selectional preferences. The approach exploits syntagmatic and paradigmatic semantic redundancy in the semantic system and uses association computation and minimum description length for the task of WSD. Experiments on Predicate-Object collocations and Subject-Predicate collocations with polysemous predicates in Chinese ...

The von-K arm an nonlinear, dynamic, partial differential system over rectangular domains is considered, and numerically solved using both the Chebyshev-collocation and Legendre-collocation methods for the spatial discretization and the implicit Newmark-b scheme combined with a non-linear fixed point algorithm for the temporal discretization. As the system is non-linear, involving operators of ...

In this paper, we introduce ontology-centric knowledge organization approach to realize design knowledge base system for sharing and reuse of knowledge. Since ontology is used here as an intermediate level of information representation between the model and media level of information, it can work to bridge multiple models and multiple users. DesignersAmplifier is a workbench for designers where...
