Annotating "tense" in a Tense-less Language

In the context of Natural Language Processing, annotation is about recovering implicit information that is useful for natural language applications. In this paper we describe a “tense” annotation task for Chinese, a language that does not have grammatical tense, that is designed to infer the temporal location of a situation in relation to the temporal deixis, the moment of speech. If successful...

Covert Robotics: Covert Path Planning

T s s a target itself. Another example is to guard a secured environment, where it is important to be covert as well as overt at the same time, in this way the chances are higher for the robot to see an intruder before the opposite happens. A covert robot may be used as well for hostage rescue, for example by sending an insect size covert robot with a camera to the hostage area to send images t...

One Tense per Scene: Predicting Tense in Chinese Conversations

We study the problem of predicting tense in Chinese conversations. The unique challenges include: (1) Chinese verbs do not have explicit lexical or grammatical forms to indicate tense; (2) Tense information is often implicitly hidden outside of the target sentence. To tackle these challenges, we first propose a set of novel sentence-level (local) features using rich linguistic resources and the...

Tense like equality algebras

In this paper, first we define the notion of involutive operator on bounded involutive equality algebras and by using it, we introduce a new class of equality algebras that we called it a tense like equality algebra. Then we investigate some properties of tense like equality algebra. For two involutive bounded equality algebras and an equality homomorphism between them, we prove that the tense ...
