In particular, it identifies their errors a one-paragraph essay, kind made completing task, and least one-paragraph. samples were 48 undergoing Preliminary Semester taking English as subjects particular semester. found that certain degree using ...

In this paper we introduce an empirical approach to the semantic interpretation of superlative adjectives. We present a corpus annotated for superlatives and propose an interpretation algorithm that uses a wide-coverage parser and produces semantic representations. We achieve Fscores between 0.84 and 0.91 for detecting attributive superlatives and an accuracy in the range of 0.69–0.84 for deter...

This paper presents a new approach to the issue of assuring rule-based systems (RBS) correctness. The principal idea is that verification should be performed on-line, incrementally, during system design. It allows for early detection and handling of knowledge base anomalies and inconsistencies by incorporating a formal Prolog-based analysis of RBS in the design phase. A formal concept of a desi...

Application functionality in business-to-business marketplaces today covers a smaller range of a company's overall procurement activities. Not every product or service can be acquired using catalogs, auctions or tenders. With the growing number of market transactions to be supported electronically, we expect a range of applications that will handle other forms of transactions. We hold that to a...

Mythili Menon and Roumyana Pancheva; University of Southern California We provide evidence for the ambiguity in color terms (e.g., green) between a gradable and nongradable reading, as proposed in [5]. The evidence comes from color terms in Malayalam. Expressions for color exhibit different morphosyntactic behavior in attributive and predicative positions, and in comparatives, as opposed to oth...

This article considers a critical and experimental approach on the attributive and qualitative AI data modeling and data retrieval in computational probabilistic reasoning. The mathematical correlation of X≈Y in the d=dx/dy differentiations and its point based locations and matrix based predictions in Markov Models, Rete’s Algorithms and Bayesian fields, with the further development of non-line...
