چکیده

In this paper, we explore the possibility that machine learning approaches to naturallanguage processing (NLP) being developed in engineering-oriented computational linguistics (CL) may be able to provide specific scientific insights into the nature of human language. We argue that, in principle, machine learning (ML) results could inform basic debates about language, in one area at least, and that in practice, existing results may offer initial tentative support for this prospect. Further, results from computational learning theory can inform arguments carried on within linguistic theory as well.

Image alignment via kernelized feature learning

Machine learning is an application of artificial intelligence that is able to automatically learn and improve from experience without being explicitly programmed. The primary assumption for most of the machine learning algorithms is that the training set (source domain) and the test set (target domain) follow from the same probability distribution. However, in most of the real-world application...

Dust source mapping using satellite imagery and machine learning models

Predicting dust sources area and determining the affecting factors is necessary in order to prioritize management and practice deal with desertification due to wind erosion in arid areas. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the application of three machine learning models (including generalized linear model, artificial neural network, random forest) to predict the vulnerability of dust cent...

بازاندیشی نسبت نظر و عمل در کار معمار، با تکیه بر خوانش گادامر از آراء ارسطو دربارۀ «حکمت عملی»

This paper provides answers to one of the most commonly asked questions in architectural education, which is about the lack of coherence resulting in the separation of theory and practice in architecture, by exploring philosophical concepts and assumptions. A look into Aristotle’s views about practice and theory reveals a new meaning of “practice," dimensions of which have been...
