چکیده

In this paper we use various methods for multiple neural network combination in tasks of prepositional phrase at tachment. Experiments with aggregation functions such as unweighted and weighted average, OWA operator, Choquet integral and stacked generalization demonstrate that combining multiple networks improve the estimation of each individual neural network. Using the Ratnaparkhi data set (the complete training set and the complete test set) we obtained an accuracy score of 86.08%. In spite of the high cost in computational time of neural net training, the response time in test mode is faster than others methods.

Disambiguation of English PP Attachment using Multilingual Aligned Data

Prepositional phrase attachment (PP attachment) is a major source of ambiguity in English. It poses a substantial challenge to Machine Translation (MT) between English and languages that are not characterized by PP attachment ambiguity. In this paper we present an unsupervised, bilingual, corpus-based approach to the resolution of English PP attachment ambiguity. As data we use aligned linguist...

PP-Attachment Disambiguation Boosted by a Gigantic Volume of Unambiguous Examples

We present a PP-attachment disambiguation method based on a gigantic volume of unambiguous examples extracted from raw corpus. The unambiguous examples are utilized to acquire precise lexical preferences for PP-attachment disambiguation. Attachment decisions are made by a machine learning method that optimizes the use of the lexical preferences. Our experiments indicate that the precise lexical...

A committee machine approach for predicting permeability from well log data: a case study from a heterogeneous carbonate reservoir, Balal oil Field, Persian Gulf

Permeability prediction problem has been examined using several methods such as empirical formulas, regression analysis and intelligent systems especially neural networks and fuzzy logic. This study proposes an improved and novel model for predicting permeability from conventional well log data. The methodology is integration of empirical formulas, multiple regression and neuro-fuzzy in a commi...

A Neurocomputational Approach to Prepositional Phrase Attachment Ambiguity Resolution

A neurocomputational model based on emergent massively overlapping neural cell assemblies (CAs) for resolving prepositional phrase (PP) attachment ambiguity is described. PP attachment ambiguity is a well-studied task in natural language processing and is a case where semantics is used to determine the syntactic structure. A large network of biologically plausible fatiguing leaky integrate-and-...

An Example-Based Disambiguation of Prepositional Phrase Attachment

Spoken language translation is a challenging new application that differs from written language translation in several ways, for instance, 1) human intervention (pre-edit or post-edit) should be avoided; 2) a real-time response is desirable for success. Example-based approaches meet these requirements, that is, they realize accurate structural disambiguation and target word selection, and respo...
