This paper gives an overview of the morpho-syntactic features of the Amazighe language and corpus encoding, afterwards we present our experience of constructing an annotated corpus with part-of-speech (POS) information. The annotated corpora consist of 20,667 Moroccan Amazighe tokens chosen from different materials; it is to our knowledge the first one dealing with Amazighe language. The experi...

In this paper we describe the SoDA project, that aims at automatically generating soundscapes from a database of annotated sound files. The rationale of the project lies in the ubiquitous requirement for sound designer to produce backgrounds that include specific multi-layered sound materials. SoDA provides an ontologically-annotated database that allows the sound designer to describe the desir...

Abstract The following annotated bibliography contains a reasonably complete survey of contemporary work in the philosophy astrophysics. Spanning approximately 40 years from early 1980s to present day, should help researchers entering field acquaint themselves with its major texts, while providing an opportunity for philosophers already working on astrophysics expand their knowledge base and en...

OBJECTIVE The hidden vector state (HVS) model is an extension of the basic discrete Markov model in which context is encoded as a stack-oriented state vector. It has been applied successfully for protein-protein interactions extraction. However, the HVS model, being a statistically based approach, requires large-scale annotated corpora in order to reliably estimate model parameters. This is nor...
