چکیده
In this report, we investigate the relationship between the semantic and syntactic properties of verbs. Our work is based on the English Verb Classes and Alternations of (Levin, 1993). We explore how these classes are manifested in other languages, in particular, in Bangla, German, and Korean. Our report includes a survey and classiication of several hundred verbs from these languages into the cross-linguistic equivalents of Levin's classes. We also explore ways in which our ndings may be used to enhance WordNet in two ways: making the English syntactic information of WordNet more ne-grained, and making WordNet multilingual.

متن کاملA computational method to analyze the similarity of biological sequences under uncertainty
In this paper, we propose a new method to analyze the difference and similarity of biological sequences, based on the fuzzy sets theory. Considering the sequence order and some chemical and structural properties, we present a computational method to cluster the biological sequences. By some examples, we show that the new method is relatively easy and we are able to compare the sequences of arbi...
متن کاملThe informational complexity of learning from examples
This thesis attempts to quantify the amount of information needed to learn certain tasks. The tasks chosen vary from learning functions in a Sobolev space using radial basis function networks to learning grammars in the principles and parameters framework of modern linguistic theory. These problems are analyzed from the perspective of computational learning theory and certain unifying perspecti...
متن کاملMining Biological Repetitive Sequences Using Support Vector Machines and Fuzzy SVM
Structural repetitive subsequences are most important portion of biological sequences, which play crucial roles on corresponding sequence’s fold and functionality. Biggest class of the repetitive subsequences is “Transposable Elements” which has its own sub-classes upon contexts’ structures. Many researches have been performed to criticality determine the structure and function of repetitiv...
