Elephant Beer and Shinto Gates: Managing Similar Concepts in a Multilingual Database
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper addresses problems in equivalence among concepts, within and between languages. The Kamusi Project has begun building a massively multilingual dictionary that relates as many languages as possible for which data can be gathered. In the process, we have encountered numerous complexities that we attempt to address through the design of our data structure. This paper presents the issues we have encountered, and discusses the solutions that we have developed.

Scaling and Fractal Concepts in Saturated Hydraulic Conductivity: Comparison of Some Models
Measurement of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity, Ks, is normally affected by flow patterns such as macro pore; however, most current techniques do not differentiate flow types, causing major problems in describing water and chemical flows within the soil matrix. This study compares eight models for scaling Ks and predicted matrix and macro pore Ks, using a database composed of 50 datasets...
متن کاملTowards a Development Methodology for Managing Linguistic Knowledge Bases
We are on the way of defining a methodology aimed to create software tools supporting linguistic knowledge bases. One of our main concerns is to formally represent knowledge using a sound software engineering approach. In this setting, we first consider the linguistic concepts found in a multilingual dictionary, as vocabulary, meanings, semantic categories, semantic relationships, and (treeshap...
متن کامل"multilingual" Deep Neural Network for Music Genre Classification
Multilingual deep neural network (DNN) has been widely used in low-resource automatic speech recognition (ASR) in order to balance the rich-resource and low-resource speech recognition or to build the low-resource ASR system quickly. Inspired by the idea of using multilingual DNN for ASR, we use a “multilingual” DNN (Multi-DNN) for music genre classification. However, we do not have “multilingu...

متن کاملGRISP: A Massive Multilingual Terminological Database for Scientific and Technical Domains
The development of a multilingual terminology is a very long and costly process. We present the creation of a multilingual terminological database called GRISP covering multiple technical and scientific fields from various open resources. A crucial aspect is the merging of the different resources which is based in our proposal on the definition of a sound conceptual model, different domain mapp...
