The scientific objectives of the "COnceptual gRAphs at LIrmm" project and the method used to reach these objectives are presented.

The objective of this study is to empirically examine the antecedents and dimensions of trust in inter-firm collaborative relationships. A conceptual model is introduced and tested on survey data. The resulting model is mainly supported, although some findings were unexpected.

In this paper, we explore the expressivity of default CG rules (a CGoriented subset of Reiter’s default logics) through two applications. In the first one, we show that default CG rules provide a unifying framework for CG rules as well as polarized CGs (CGs with atomic negation). This framework allows us to study decidable subclasses of a new language mixing CG rules with atomic negation. In th...

Motivated by the demonstration of similarly localized adaptation of the hemodynamic response in a first (L1) and second (L2) language, this study examined event-related brain potentials (ERPs) to spoken words in L1 and L2 in 15 English-French bilinguals. We examined whether the temporal pattern of N400 adaptation due to within-language repetitions (i.e., repetition priming) was similar in L1 an...

This paper makes the case for using Shapley value to quantify the importance of random input variables to a function. Alternatives based on the ANOVA decomposition can run into conceptual and computational problems when the input variables are dependent. Our main goal here is to show that Shapley value removes the conceptual problems. We do this with some simple examples where Shapley value lea...

This paper is concerned with semantic exibility. As suggested by many studies, human concepts demonstrate enormous exibility in various contexts. In this paper, we propose a model for constructing the conceptual representation on the basis of context. Our solution is based on the separation of representational and classiicatory functions of concepts, and we discuss its implications regarding th...
