Fuzzy approach deals with the linguistic properties of elements such as beauty, coldness, hotness etc. Collocations are linguistically motivated. Decision of word combination for being collocation is a linguistic term as merely co-occurrence of word combinations does not signify the presence of collocation. Thus collocation extraction can be made possible by looking its linguistic aspect. In th...

This paper describes the use of WordNet in a new technique for collocation extraction. The approach is based on restrictions on the possible substitutions for synonyms within candidate phrases. Following a general discussion of collocations and their applications, current extraction methods are briefly described. This is followed by a detailed description of the new approach and results and eva...

The natural frequencies of non-uniform beams resting on elastic foundations are numerically obtained using the spline collocation procedure. The spline collocation method is a numerical approach effective at solving partial differential equations. The boundary conditions that accompanied the spline collocation procedure were used to convert the partial differential equations of non-uniform beam...

Spectral methods are a popular choice for constructing numerical approximations for smooth problems, as they can achieve geometric rates of convergence and have a relatively small memory footprint. In this paper, we introduce a general framework to convert a spectral-collocation method into a shootingbased variational integrator for Hamiltonian systems. We also compare the proposed spectral-col...

This paper is an introductory tutorial for numerical trajectory optimization with a focus on direct collocation methods. These methods are relatively simple to understand and effectively solve a wide variety of trajectory optimization problems. Throughout the paper we illustrate each new set of concepts by working through a sequence of four example problems. We start by using trapezoidal colloc...

This paper explores the application of the mesh-free radial basis function collocation method for solution of heat transfer and fluid flow problems. The solution procedure is represented for a Poisson reformulated general transport equation in terms of a-symmetric, symmetric and modified (double consideration of the boundary nodes) collocation approaches. In continuation, specifics of a primiti...

This paper presents a new strategy for multilingual collocation extraction which takes advantage of parallel corpora to learn bilingual word-embeddings. Monolingual collocation candidates are retrieved using Universal Dependencies, while the distributional models are then applied to search for equivalents of the elements of each collocation in the target languages. The proposed method extracts ...

In this paper we present a more accurate method for solving a frequency-dependent inductance of 3-D structures that contains permeable materials. The extracted inductance using the new method is much more accurate than when using the traditional collocation method for no increased cost. Computational results are presented and compared with data to demonstrate the accuracy improvement of the app...

We introduce a radial basis collocation method to solve axially moving beam problems
