چکیده

We present a corpus-based study of the sequential ordering among premodifiers in noun phrases. This information is important for the fluency of generated text in practical applications. We propose and evaluate three approaches to identify sequential order among premodifiers: direct evidence, transitive closure, and clustering. Our implemented system can make over 94% of such ordering decisions correctly, as evaluated on a large, previously unseen test corpus.

On Multivariate Likelihood Ratio Ordering among Generalized Order Statistics and their Spacings

The most of the results obtained about stochastic properties of generalized order statistics and their spacings in the literature are based on equal model parameters. In this paper, with less restrictive conditions on the model parameters, we prove some new multivariate likelihood ratio ordering results between two sub-vectors of GOS's as well as two sub-vectors of $p$-spacings based on two con...

Lexicographical ordering by spectral moments of trees with a given bipartition

 Lexicographic ordering by spectral moments ($S$-order) among all trees is discussed in this‎ ‎paper‎. ‎For two given positive integers $p$ and $q$ with $pleqslant q$‎, ‎we denote $mathscr{T}_n^{p‎, ‎q}={T‎: ‎T$ is a tree of order $n$ with a $(p‎, ‎q)$-bipartition}‎. Furthermore, ‎the last four trees‎, ‎in the $S$-order‎, ‎among $mathscr{T}_n^{p‎, ‎q},(4leqslant pleqslant q)$ are characterized‎.

A Trainable Bracketer for Noun Modifiers

Noun phrases carry much of the information in a text. Systems that attempt to acquire knowledge from text must first decompose complex noun phrases to get access to that information. In the case of noun compounds, this decomposition usually means bracketing the modifiers into nested modifierhead pairs. It is then possible to determine the semantic relationships among individual components of th...

A Note on the Comparisons among Coherent Systems

 Using the concept of system signature introduced by Samaniego (1985), Kochar et al. (1999) compared the lifetimes of the systems in which the lifetimes of the components are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) random variables. Their results are extended to the systems with exchangeable components by Navarro et al. (2005). This paper gives some alternative proofs to obtain th...

Prioritize the ordering of URL queue in Focused crawler

The enormous growth of the World Wide Web in recent years has made it necessary to perform resource discovery efficiently. For a crawler it is not an simple task to download the domain specific web pages. This unfocused approach often shows undesired results. Therefore, several new ideas have been proposed, among them a key technique is focused crawling which is able to crawl particular topical...
