We consider a sequence of independent and identicaly distributed (iid) random variables with absolutely continuous distribution function F(x) and probability density function (pdf) f(x). Let Rnl be the largest observation after observing nth record and R(ns) be the smallest observation after observing the nth record. Then we say Wnr = Rnl− R(ns), n > 1, as the nth record range. We will c...

The capacity of distributional semantic models (DSMs) to discover similarities over large scale heterogeneous and poorly structured data brings them as a promising universal and low-effort framework to support semantic approximation and knowledge discovery. This position paper explores the role of distributional semantics in the Semantic Web vision, based on state-of-the-art distributional-rela...
