Writing projects are socially-situated identities. The rhetorically-loaded aspects of writing, like metadiscourse marking, are more prone to carry such identities. Through analyzing metadiscourse strategies employment in Persian and English (as the lingua franca of academic discourse community) research articles, this study makes an attempt to find out whether Persian native writers take on the...

In this paper we propose an approach for classifying documents, embedding documents into feature vectors and using these embeddings finding similarities between them. Our chosen domain applying method is the IT-Service Support branch, where try to analyse are support tickets potential of patterns huge optimizing service process. We aim tackle problem with multiple methods text classification re...

without any doubt, balance is considered as one of the most significant criticism issues which evaluates similarities among different texts so that it can find to a better understanding and consequently the problems can be solved. thus, it stands in a top position in literary criticism. regarding this significance, this study is dedicated to study balance between al-buhturi and al-sharif al-mor...

Several  studies  have  indicated  that  the  range  and  linguistics  expressions  of  external modifiers  available  in  one  language  differ  from  those  available  in  another  language.  The present study aims to investigate the cross-cultural differences and similarities with regards to  the  realization  of  request  external  modifications.  To  this  end,  30  Iraqi  and  30  Malay u...

This paper explores the problem of computing text similarity utilizing natural language processing. Four parsers are evaluated on a large corpus of skill statements from a corporate expertise taxonomy. A similarity measure utilizing common semantic role features extracted from parse trees was found superior to an information-theoretic measure of similarity and comparable to human judgments of s...

We propose a novel method of query expansion for Language Modeling (LM) in Information Retrieval (IR) based on the similarity of the query with sentences in the top ranked documents from an initial retrieval run. In justification of our approach, we argue that the terms in the expanded query obtained by the proposed method roughly follow a Dirichlet distribution which, being the conjugate prior...

Learning a new language involves significant vocabulary acquisition. Learners can accelerate this process by relying on words with native-language overlap, such as cognates. For bilingual third language learners, it is necessary to determine how their two existing languages interact during novel language learning. A scaffolding account predicts transfer from either language for individual words...

Search engines have become a crucial tool for finding information in repositories containing large amounts of textual data in unstructured form (e.g., the Web). However, the task of ad hoc information retrieval, that is, finding documents within a corpus that are relevant to an information need specified using a query, remains a hard challenge. The language modeling approach to information retr...
