The entailment operator.

Discovering Entailment Relations Using "Textual Entailment Patterns"

In this work we investigate methods to enable the detection of a specific type of textual entailment (strict entailment), starting from the preliminary assumption that these relations are often clearly expressed in texts. Our method is a statistical approach based on what we call textual entailment patterns, prototypical sentences hiding entailment relations among two activities. We experimente...

The convexity of the integral operator on the class of the integral operator on the class B(mu,alpha)

In this paper, we study the convexity of the integral operator

Eliciting Entailment

Interactive construct elicitetion systems may be seen on the one hand as tools for self-realization and construct development and on th~ other as dialectic database systems in which ~hc entire data structure is built up through a process of question, answer and discussion. Current computer-based construct elicitation programs use distance-based measures to feed back construct similarities and t...
