In this paper, we make a short history about: the neutrosophic set, neutrosophic numerical components and neutrosophic literal components, neutrosophic numbers, and elementary neutrosophic algebraic structures. Afterwards, their generalizations to refined neutrosophic set, respectively refined neutrosophic numerical and literal components, then refined neutrosophic numbers and refined neutrosop...

Schizophrenia patients have been reported to be more impaired in comprehending non-literal than literal language since early studies on proverbs. Preference for literal rather than figurative interpretations continues to be documented. The main aim of this study was to establish whether patients are indeed able to use combinatorial semantic processing to comprehend literal sentences and both co...

The textual representation defined for literal IPv6 addresses in [ARCH] is not directly compatible with URL’s. Both use ":" and "." characters as delimiters. This document defines the preferred format for literal IPv6 Addresses in URL’s for implementation in World Wide Web browsers. The goal is to have a format that allows easy "cut" and "paste" operations with a minimum of editing of the liter...

The Metaphorical Brain Long considered a peripheral topic in linguistics, metaphor is increasingly viewed as a central feature of higher cognition and abstract thought.

I suppose the primary aim of the book is to describe the nature of oral societies, but I have always seen it as the story of how we – in our modern literal societies-have become what we are. I have cont...

Alice Crary has recently developed a radical reading of J. L. Austin’s philosophy of language. The central contention of Crary’s reading is that Austin gives convincing reasons to reject the idea that sentences have context-invariant literal meaning. While I am in sympathy with Crary about the continuing importance of Austin’s work, and I think Crary’s reading is deep and interesting, I do not ...

Entity linking maps name mentions in context to entries in a knowledge base through resolving the name variations and ambiguities. In this paper, we propose two advancements for entity linking. First, a Wikipedia-LDA method is proposed to model the contexts as the probability distributions over Wikipedia categories, which allows the context similarity being measured in a semantic space instead ...
