This paper discusses the emerging trend of Personal Desktop Searching utilities on desktop PCs, and how the information cached and stored with these systems can be retrieved and analysed, even after the original document has been removed. Focusing on the free Google Desktop Search program, this paper first analyses how the program operates, the processes involved, files created and altered, and...

We discuss a method to populate ontologies with the use of googled text fragments. We populate an ontology by the use of hand-crafted domain-specific relation patterns, which can be seen as a generalization of Hearst patterns. The algorithm described uses instances of some class returned by Google to find instances of other classes. A case study on populating an ontology on the movie domain is ...

Most semantic frameworks assume that the denotations of verbs expect their arguments in a certain specific order. In fixed word order languages, hence, we could say that order codes case marking. Moreover, all syntax-semantic mappings have to provide a solution for the fact that DPs can denote individual concepts of (extensional) type e as well as generalized quantifiers (〈〈e, t〉, t〉). The pape...

The lemon model has been developed to link lexical knowledge to ontology classes and properties. However, it is only possible to describe an ontology property with lexical senses. In our previous work, we found that there are relations between ontology properties and natural language predicates. We suggest a model for explaining ontology properties with not only lexical senses such as verb sens...

This paper lays the foundations for a processing model of relative acceptability levels in verb phrase ellipsis (VPE). In the proposed model, mismatching VPE examples are grammatical but less acceptable because they violate heuristic parsing strategies. This analysis is presented in a Minimalist Grammar formalism that is compatible with standard parsing techniques. The overall proposal integrat...

In a serial verb construction (SVC), two or more verbs combine in single clause without any morphosyntactic marking of linking subordination. However, the way which different linguists interpret and diagnose this description is continual source controversy. There are assumptions about nature verbhood clausehood as well disagreements over how to particular languages. Despite fuzzy category, SVCs...

since the verbs of and have similar use and play an important role in arabic grammar, it was useful to study both and discuss about their functions. following the discussion we found that there is five different functions for :first, it is an imperfect verb, (that give the noun an nominative case and the comment an objective case) arabic grammar experts disagree if it has a verb function or a n...
