A prototype for a conversational companion for reminiscing about images

This paper describes an initial prototype of the Companions project (www.companions-project.org): the Senior Companion (SC), designed to be a platform to display novel approaches to: (1) The use of Information Extraction (IE) techniques to extract the content of incoming dialogue utterances after an ASR phase. (2) The conversion of the input to RDF form to allow the generation of new facts from...

The Model Companion of Width-Two Orders

The class of width-two orders has a model companion. The model companion is complete, decidable, non-finitely axiomatizable, and has continuum many countable models. Generalizations of some results in (Pouzet, M., 1978, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 25) are presented in the width-n case, for n > 2. Mathematics Subject Classifications (1991): 06A06, 03C52.

About Existence and Non–Existence of Lattices in some Solvable Lie Groups

One of the aims of cognitive (neuro)psychology is to characterize the nature of, and the relationships between, mental processes underlying human behavior (c.f. Dunn & Kirsner, this issue). In this context, the double dissociation (DD) paradigm has played an important albeit debated role. In our efforts to come up with a clear and positive contribution to this discussion, which sometimes appear...
