The following is an outline of possible strategies in using semantic web techniques and math with regard to environmental issues. The article uses concrete examples and applications and provides partially a rather basic treatment of semantic web techniques and math in order to adress

The aim of this paper is to make restriction strategies based on orderings of the Herbrand universe available for semantic tableau-like calculi as well. A marriage of tableaux and ordering restriction strategies seems to be most promising in applications where generation of counter examples is required. In this paper, starting out from semantic trees, we develop a formal tool called refutation ...

In this paper, we present an approach to hybrid semantic Web service selection of semantic services in SAWSDL based on logicbased matching as well as text retrieval strategies. We discuss the principles of semantic Web service description in SAWSDL and selected problems for service matching implied by its specification. Based on the result of this discussion, we present different variants of hy...

Objectives: Wernicke’s aphasia is one of the most prominent focal brain deficits affecting the comprehension abilities of patients while preserving their production abilities. Although a lot of studies in different languages have been conducted to analyze the nature of this deficit, still some controversies exist in this regard. While some research studies attribute this defect to a performance...

This paper presents a computational approach to modelling pragmatic and semantic aspects of multi-issue bargaining dialogues. The model accounts for actions that shape negotiation structure and actions that express negotiation strategies. The model also accepts a number of negotiation moves as specifications of the semantic content of the performed taskrelated dialogue acts. The designed dialog...

We present an approach for relation extraction from texts aimed to enrich the semantic annotations produced by a semantic web portal. The approach exploits linguistic and empirical strategies, by means of a pipeline method involving processes such as a parser, part-of-speech tagger, named entity recognition system, pattern-based classification and word sense disambiguation models, and resources...

Strategies to enhance the semantic decoding accuracy of a stochastic parser are discussed and comparatively evaluated on the English Spontaneous Speech Task for multilingual appointment scheduling. The performance of the parser could be improved by subsequently adding valuable and removing redundant semantic information as well as by iteratively combining several decoding methods.
