Vector space representation of words has been widely used to capture fine-grained linguistic regularities, and proven to be successful in various natural language processing tasks in recent years. However, existing models for learning word representations focus on either syntagmatic or paradigmatic relations alone. In this paper, we argue that it is beneficial to jointly modeling both relations...

From the perspective of structural linguistics, we explore paradigmatic and syntagmatic lexical relations for Chinese POS tagging, an important and challenging task for Chinese language processing. Paradigmatic lexical relations are explicitly captured by word clustering on largescale unlabeled data and are used to design new features to enhance a discriminative tagger. Syntagmatic lexical rela...

This paper presents an in-depth longitudinal analysis of an organisational change process at Technico, a large European Company. The central question is the following: is there a "dominant" paradigmatic approach enabling to understand change processes or is there a need for adopting a multi-paradigmatic view to improve our understanding? The intent was to refrain from adopting an a priori conce...

It is conventional to recognise two dimensions of paradigmatic organisation in a morphological system. The inflected forms of a lexeme L make up the inflectional paradigms of L. The new lexemes that can be defined from the root of L form what is often, by extension, termed the derivational paradigm of L. Implicit in many traditional descriptions is a third subsystem, comprising the ‘principal p...

This paper implements a simple vector space model relying on lexico-syntactic patterns to distinguish between the paradigmatic relations synonymy, antonymy and hypernymy. Our study is performed across word classes, and models the lexical relations between German nouns, verbs and adjectives. Applying nearest-centroid classification to the relation vectors, we achieve a precision of 59.80%, which...

We present a notation for the declarative statement of morphological relationships and lexieal rules, based on the traditional notion of Word and Paradigm (cf Hockett 1954). The phenomenon of blocking arises from a generalized version of Kiparsky's (1973) Elsewhere Condition, stated in terms of ordering by subsumption over paradigms. Orthographic constraints on morphemic alternation are describ...

Recently, a number of usage data representations have emerged that enable the representation of user activities across system and application boundaries. Based on these user activity data, systems can adapt to the users and provide personalized information. A lot of usage data representation formats are already successfully used in real world applications. However, dependent on the purpose, the...

Abstract Climate change, ecological challenges, and economic social crises imply paradigmatic structural innovations. In the effort to drive transition toward sustainability, local communities often take lead, mobilize support, organize initiatives based on principles of solidarity economy. Our study presents a qualitative evaluation comparison three bottom-up from Friuli Venezia Giulia, Northe...
