One of the goals of this workshop was to begin to lay the foundations for a comprehensive framework for understanding and classifying different problems, approaches and techniques in the field of semantic integration and interoperability. Another way to look at this, is to create a map of the field. In this short paper, we give an example of what a region on such a map might look like. We consi...

Subjects assigned to one of three training conditions viewed sentences from a miniature phrase structure language. In the reference field condition, subjects saw sentences which each referred to an array of geometric figures. In the morphology condition no reference fi...

Semantic feature norms, originally utilized in the field of psycholinguistics as a tool for studying human semantic representation and computation, have recently attracted the attention of some NLP/IR researchers who wish to improve their task performances. However, currently available semantic feature norms are, by nature, not well-structured, making them difficult to integrate into existing r...
