This paper describes two distinct attempts at the Senseval2 Japanese translation task. The first implementation is based on lexical similarity and builds on the results of Baldwin (2001b; 2001a), whereas the second is based on structural similarity via the medium of parse trees and includes a basic model of conceptual similarity. Despite its simplistic nature, the lexical method was found to pe...

To deal with the problem in emergency plan matching of highway traffic that incident description is incomplete, incident properties are unclear, and plan matching is inaccurate, etc., a plan matching method is proposed based on fuzzy sets and rough sets. The property weight calculation method based on rough sets is used to reduce the dependency on prior knowledge; the structural similarity calc...

Holographic Reduced Representations (HRRs) are a method for encoding nested relational structures in fixed width vector representations. HRRs encode relational structures as vector representations in such a way that the superficial similarity of the vectors reflects both superficial and structural similarity of the relational structures. HRRs support a number of operations that could be very us...

In this paper, we investigate the ability of the Predication-based Semantic Indexing (PSI) approach, which incorporates both symbolic and distributional information, to support inference on the basis of structural similarity. For example, given a pair of related concepts prozac:depression, we attempt to identify concepts that relate to a third concept, such as schizophrenia in the same way. A n...

This work motivates the need for more flexible structural similarity measures between time-series sequences, which are based on the extraction of important periodic features. Specifically, we present non-parametric methods for accurate periodicity detection and we introduce new periodic distance measures for time-series sequences. The goal of these tools and techniques are to assist in detectin...

In the present paper we mainly introduce an efficient approach to measure the structural similarity of so called directed universal hierarchical graphs. We want to underline that directed universal hierarchical graphs can be obtained from generalized trees which are already introduced. In order to classify these graphs, we state our novel graph similarity method. As a main result we notice that...

Spam emails yearly impose extremely heavy costs in terms of time, storage space and money to both private users and companies. Finding and persecuting spammers and eventual spam emails stakeholders should allow to directly tackle the root of the problem. To facilitate such a difficult analysis, which should be performed on large amounts of unclassified raw emails, in this paper we propose a fra...

In this work, we present the Text Conditioned Auxiliary Classifier Generative Adversarial Network, (TAC-GAN) a text to image Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) for synthesizing images from their text descriptions. Former approaches have tried to condition the generative process on the textual data; but allying it to the usage of class information, known to diversify the generated samples and ...

The first compound reaching the market following the approval of the official offices is referred to as first-inclass or breakthrough drug. These compounds constitute a new class of drugs meaning that they introduce a novel mode of action (MoA) or provide a significant improvement over the standard therapy, if not enables a therapy, in terms of efficacy and safety. A follow-on (or me-too) drug ...
