This paper presents a novel approach to automatic captioning of toponym-referenced images. The automatic captioning procedure works by summarizing multiple web-documents that contain information related to an image’s location. Our summarizer can generate both query-based and language model-biased multidocument summaries. The models are created from large numbers of existing articles pertaining ...

Climate type is one of the potentially most relevant pieces of metadata for identifying studies in evidence-based environmental management. In this paper, we propose a method for automatically predicting the climate type in environmental science literature using NLP techniques, relative to a pre-existing set of climate type categories. Our main approaches combine toponym detection and resolutio...

Extensive evidence from ancient Near Eastern .texts and from normal Hebrew syntax supports the view that wxr is a toponym in Ezek 38:2, 3; 39:1.

Therefore, wxr in Ezek 38:2, 3; 39:1 should be translated as ...

Problem: Several geoparsers are available, each with their own gazetteer and toponym recognition and resolution approaches. However, they often lack extensibility, implementations are not accessible, or they are fixed to a particular gazetteer. This makes adjustments to other application domains difficult and prevents easy experimental setup. HeidelPlace provides: •A generic gazetteer model sup...
