Context includes not only physical characteristics, but psychological, and social characteristics as well. Moreover, context is understood in terms of both past and present circumstances.

Extractive summarization suffers from irrelevance, redundancy and incoherence. Existing work shows that abstractive rewriting for extractive summaries can improve the conciseness readability. These systems consider extracted as only input, which is relatively focused but lose important background knowledge. In this paper, we investigate contextualized rewriting, ingests entire original document...

This manuscript deals with how cooperative learning in pre-school and primary education can be dimensionalized terms of reducing gender differences inequalities.

BACKGROUND There is limited knowledge concerning fall-related activity avoidance in people with Parkinson's disease (PD); such knowledge would be of importance for the development of more efficient PD-care and rehabilitation.

Ontologies strive to offer a interconnected, hierarchical systems of categories to guide our actions in a complex world. But the boundaries of these categories are highly context-dependent, and what constitutes a prototypical category member in one context may be atypical or unrepresentative in another. In this paper we outline a dynamic, trainable, bottom-up view of category structure based on...

Central to the semantic web are ontologies: shared conceptualizations of domains of interest expressed in an ontology language such as OWL. Rule languages complement ontology languages. For large heterogeneous bodies of knowledge on the semantic web, contextualized knowledge repositories facilitate the organization of ontological concepts. In this paper we propose a similar mechanism – contextu...

Currently, task-specific support information in aircraft maintenance is mostly provided using paper-based solutions, which are burdensome, slow and prone to error. Next to these issues, Aircraft Maintenance Technicians (AMTs) have very limited on-site access to support information. This leads to 15-30% of handson-aircraft time being wasted on acquiring the right information or not using mainten...
