In this paper we describe Semantic Keyboard: a soft keyboard augmented by semantic pointing. The cursor crosses faster over keys containing low-probability letters (considering the prefix already entered). This optimization reduces the movement of the pointer by 60%, and increases the text entry speed by 13.5% after the first character in a word. Accuracy is equivalent to a regular soft keyboard.

this paper examines the semantic contribution of -?r and -andeh suffixes in persian based on lieber’s (2004) lexical semantic representation. this framework using six semantic features ([material], [dynamic], [location], [ieps] , [b] and [ci] and a principle called coordination principle studies the semantic contribution of lexical items including affixes and their functions in compounding, der...

Categories are not invariant. This paper attempts to explore the dynamic nature of semantic category, in particular, that of fashion language, based on the cognitive theory of Dawkins’ memetics, a new theory of cultural evolution. Semantic attributes of linguistic memes decrease or proliferate in replication and spreading, which involves a dynamic development of semantic category. More specific...

despite the often false impression that the analytic philosophy as an anti-metaphysical movement has nothing to do with metaphysics, there can be found good reasons to grant the metaphysical dispositions of analytic philosophers, and thereby, to minimize the anti-metaphysical nature of analytic philosophy in its all phases. since analytic philosophy is a historical movement the main nature of w...

Thanks to the rapid development of mobile sensing technologies (like GPS, GSM, RFID, accelerometer, gyroscope, sound and other sensors in smartphones), the largescale capture of evolving positioning data (called mobility data or trajectories) generated by moving objects with embedded sensors has become easily feasible, both technically and economically. We have already entered a world full of t...

The article deals with the verbs of moving an object by subject, developing semantics low and high speed action. research is mainly based on vocabulary Russian folk dialects, but facts literary language are also involved. Several lexical groups distinguished, within which “speed” meanings can develop, depending way movement indicated verbs: without lifting off ground; strength your movement; ai...
