Paraphrasing verbal metonymy through computational methods

Verbal metonymy has received relatively scarce attention in the field of computational linguistics despite the fact that a model to accurately paraphrase metonymy has applications both in academia and the technology sector. The method described in this paper makes use of data from the British National Corpus in order to create word vectors, find instances of verbal metonymy and generate potenti...

Data Oriented LP with Magritte

Logic Programming applications and environment tools use a great variety of data representations and interaction paradigms, precluding data sharing and reusing data interaction routines deened by applications dealing with large and complex terms. To overcome these problems and towards simplifying the development of an integrated spreadsheet-like environment , we propose the creation of a common...

Similitude And Theory Of Models

The concepts of Similitude, Dimensional Analysis and Theory of Models are presented and used in this chapter. They constitute important theoretical tools that allow scientists from many different areas to go further on their studies prior to actual experiments or using small scale models. The applications discussed herein are focused on thermal sciences (Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics). Usin...
