Languages, Ontologies and Automatic Grammar Generation - Prof. Pedro Rangel H...Facultad de Informática UCM
In this talk I intend to review some basic and high-level concepts like formal languages, grammars and ontologies. Languages to transmit knowledge from a sender to a receiver; grammars to formally specify languages; ontologies as formals specifications of specific knowledge domains. After this introductory revision, enhancing the role of each of those elements in the context of computer-based problem solving (programming), I will talk about a project aimed at automatically infer and generate a Grammar for a Domain Specific Language (DSL) from a given ontology that describes this specific domain. The transformation rules will be presented and the system, Onto2Gra, that fully implements that "Ontological approach for DSL development" will be introduced.Week1
This document provides an introduction to object-oriented programming concepts using C++. It defines key OOP concepts like classes, objects, encapsulation, inheritance and polymorphism. It explains that classes define the data and behaviors of objects. Objects are instances of classes that occupy memory. Encapsulation binds data and code into a single unit, while inheritance allows classes to inherit characteristics from other classes. Polymorphism allows different objects to respond to the same message differently. The document also gives examples of classes like Animals and provides code snippets to demonstrate classes in C++.

This document describes a Synchronized Alternating Pushdown Automaton (SAPDA) that accepts the language of reduplication with a center marker (RCM). The SAPDA utilizes recursive conjunctive transitions to check that the nth letter before the center marker '$' is the same as the nth letter from the end of the string, for all letters n. This allows the SAPDA to accept strings of the form w$w, where w is any string over the alphabet {a,b}. The construction of the SAPDA involves states that check specific letters at specific positions relative to the center marker.

This document discusses contextual word embeddings and how they address the limitations of context-free word embeddings. It begins by explaining that context-free word embeddings cannot model polysemy since words have the same embedding regardless of context. It then introduces contextual word embeddings as a solution, discussing early approaches like CoVe and ELMo that learn contextual embeddings from language models. The document emphasizes that contextual embeddings allow words to have different representations depending on the surrounding context.
Weapons of Math Construction
This document provides a summary of Valeria de Paiva's career and research interests. It includes:
- Her educational background which includes a PhD from the University of Cambridge in Dialectica Categories.
- Her professional experience including positions at the University of Birmingham, NLTT, PowerSet, Cuil, and currently at Nuance Communications.
- An overview of her research areas such as linear logic, functional programming, natural language processing, and combining symbolic and machine learning methods.
- Her interest in building bridges between fields like logic, computing, linguistics and category theory and applying these approaches to problems in areas like automated reasoning and natural language understanding.
Fast evaluation of Connectionist Language Models
Connectionist language models offer many advantages over their statistical counterparts, but they also have some drawbacks like a much more expensive computational cost. This paper describes a novel method to overcome this problem. A set of normalization values associated to the most frequent N-grams is pre-computed and the model is smoothed with lower N-gram connectionist or statistical models. The
proposed approach is favourably compared to standard connectionist language models and with statistical back-off language models.
Topics Modeling
This document summarizes the agenda and key topics for a CIS 890 project final presentation on topics modelling with LDA. The presentation will cover LDA modelling, HMMLDA modelling, LDA with collocations modelling, and experimental results on the NIPS collection. It will discuss topic modelling approaches like LDA, discriminative vs generative methods, and limitations of bag-of-words assumptions.

Towards Self-explanatory Ontology Visualization with Contextual Verbalization
- The document describes an approach to combine ontology visualization using graphical notation with contextual verbalization in controlled natural language.
- It uses the OWLGrEd editor and notation, which maps ontology axioms to graphical elements, and integrates a verbalizer to generate explanations of axioms related to selected elements in multiple languages like English and Latvian.
- This allows users to understand ontology structures and restrictions from diagrams while getting contextual explanations in readable controlled natural language without learning a new notation.
Compositional Programming
This document presents Compositional Programming (CP), a new statically-typed modular programming style that solves the Expression Problem and allows programs with complex dependencies to be designed modularly. CP is elaborated into Fi+, a calculus supporting features like disjoint intersection types. Case studies on attribute grammars, a prefix circuits DSL, mini interpreters and compilers show CP can modularly represent non-trivial language features and dependencies. Future work aims to expand CP's expressiveness with features like recursive types and mutable states.

Latent Dirichlet Allocation
This document discusses Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), a probabilistic topic modeling technique. It begins with an introduction to topic models and their use in understanding large collections of documents. It then describes LDA's generative process using Dirichlet distributions to represent document-topic and topic-term distributions. Approximate inference methods for LDA like Gibbs sampling are also summarized. The document concludes by outlining the implementation of an LDA model, including preprocessing of documents and collapsed Gibbs sampling.
Constructive Modal and Linear Logics
The document discusses the history and development of modal and intuitionistic logics. It covers key figures like Frege, Hilbert, Gentzen, Prawitz, Martin-Löf, and Girard and how their work contributed to logic systems. It also discusses more recent work on constructive modal logics by researchers like Nerode, Simpson, and the Intuitionistic Modal Logic and Applications community. The document examines challenges in developing intuitionistic modal logics and potential solutions using category theory and modal cubes. It notes the importance of modal logic due to its applications in formal methods and computing.
An Approach to Automated Learning of Conceptual Graphs from Text
Many document collections are private and accessible only by selected people. Especially in business realities, such collections need to be managed, and the use of an external taxonomic or ontological resource would be very useful. Unfortunately, very often domain-specific resources are not available, and the development of techniques that do not rely on external resources becomes essential.
Automated learning of conceptual graphs from restricted collections needs to be robust with respect to missing or partial knowledge, that does not allow to extract a full conceptual graph and only provides sparse fragments thereof. This work proposes a way to deal with these problems applying relational clustering and generalization methods. While clustering collects similar concepts, generalization provides additional nodes that can bridge separate pieces of the graph while expressing it at a higher level of abstraction. In this process, considering relational information allows a broader perspective in the similarity assessment for clustering, and ensures more flexible and understandable descriptions of the generalized concepts. The final conceptual graph can be used for better analyzing and understanding the collection, and for performing some kind of reasoning on it.
A Neural Probabilistic Language Model_v2
This document discusses neural probabilistic language modeling. It introduces the fundamental problem of language modeling as the curse of dimensionality when using discrete spaces to model language. It then describes statistical language models like n-gram models that estimate the conditional probability of the next word. However, these models have limitations like not handling long-term dependencies beyond 1-2 words. The document proposes a neural probabilistic language model that learns distributed word embeddings to represent words in a continuous vector space. It models the joint probability of word sequences using these embeddings and a neural network, learning the embeddings and probability function simultaneously.
Scales02WhatProgrammingLanguagesShouldWeTeachOurUndergraduates
Student X needs to transform 200 data files into plain text files but does not know how to write a program to automate this task. Student Y inherited a C program from another student but views it as a "black box" and wants to avoid changing or extending its implementation. The document argues that students need to learn how to read, understand, test, and modify programs, rather than viewing them as impenetrable boxes. It advocates teaching students modern scripting languages that are interpreted and easier to work with interactively in order to improve programming skills and encourage experimentation with ideas.

4) Languages influence programming practices but programmers can also work against a language's favored style.
A Strong Object Recognition Using Lbp, Ltp And Rlbp
This document discusses the evolution of object-oriented technology and languages. It notes that many object-oriented languages have emerged but companies commonly use open source OO languages like Java, C++, C# and Visual Basic due to their low or no licensing costs. These languages also have readily available libraries and development resources. The history of object-oriented concepts is traced back to Simula 67 and Smalltalk in the 1960s-70s, which introduced key ideas like classes, objects, inheritance and polymorphism. Exponential growth has occurred as more systems adopt object-oriented technologies.
Technology in EFL - ESL
The document discusses the use of technology in language classrooms. It describes how computer-mediated language learning (CALL) emerged in the 1980s using computer programs for exercises and feedback. Technology-enhanced language learning (TELL) developed in the 1990s with the rise of the internet and web-based tools. Basic uses of technology included computer rooms for projects, CD-ROMs for group work, and email/word processing for assignments. Newer technologies support oral interaction through video chat, simulated environments for identity exploration, and written interactions through messaging and chat rooms. Technologies also aid pronunciation practice, reading with multimedia supports, and writing through discussion forums, blogs and wikis. Effective implementation considers teacher skills, facilities, and using the

A neural probabilistic language model
The paper presents a neural probabilistic language model that overcomes the curse of dimensionality in probabilistic language modeling. It develops a neural network model with distributed word representations as parameters to learn the probability of sequences. The model learns representations for each word and the probability function as a function of these representations using a hidden and softmax layer. This allows the model to estimate probabilities of unseen sequences during training by taking advantage of longer contexts through continuous representations.

- The goal is to design a new programming language by combining common qualities from two existing languages.
- When designing a new language, it is important to consider aspects like syntax, semantics, data types, control structures, modularity, and libraries/frameworks.
- The language design should aim to take useful features from other languages while avoiding their shortcomings to create a language that is efficient, readable, and meets modern programming needs.
OWLGrEd/CNL: a Graphical Editor for OWL with Multilingual CNL Support
OWLGrEd/CNL is a graphical editor for the Web Ontology Language (OWL) that supports editing ontologies in multiple controlled natural languages (CNLs) like English and Latvian. It combines a graphical notation based on UML with CNL verbalizations to help understand and check ontology semantics. Axioms and class expressions are translated between OWL, Attempto Controlled English as an interlingua, and target CNLs using Grammatical Framework grammars. The tool allows verbalizing specific parts of an ontology or the whole ontology in different languages. Future work includes improved support for object and data properties in CNLs.
Oop by edgar lagman jr
Object-oriented programming has its roots in SIMULA 67. Key aspects of OOP include abstract data types, inheritance, and dynamic binding. Java supports OOP through classes that are subclasses of the root class "Object" and utilize single inheritance. All Java objects are allocated dynamically on the heap using the "new" operator.

Charting the learning tracks
Second part of the talk on the "Shape(s) of Educational Data" delivered at the meeting SOED, April 7-8, 2016 in Fairfax (VA).
Treasure hunts and educational games
This document discusses using Second Life for educational purposes such as showcasing websites and hosting scavenger hunts and games. It describes how the author set up exhibits for JEM and WebALT in Second Life to attract visitors. A scavenger hunt game was created where students needed to correctly answer math questions to receive clues. However, there were some challenges engaging students in math lessons and ensuring activities focused on learning rather than just using Second Life. While the virtual world can attract attention, it may not be better than existing tools for the students' learning experience.

Editor's Notes
- Mathematical markup languages like OpenMath and MathML offer the possibility to represent mathematical content in a level of abstraction that is not dependent on localized information. This representation typically focuses on the semantics of the mathematical object and postpones localization aspects of mathematics, such as those influenced by notation and by culture, to the rendering process of the markup. While typesetting of mathematical markup has been the object of a numerous efforts, from MathML-presentation to SVG converters, the rendering of mathematics in a "verbalized" jargon has not yet received similar attention. In this talk, I will present the results of the WebALT EU eContent project concerning the application of language technologies to the automatic generation of text from mathematical markup. Mathematical jargon is an important aspect of the education of students. Not only does a teacher train pupils in problem solving skills, but she also makes sure that they acquire a proper way of expressing mathematical concepts. To our knowledge, digital eLearning resources have used a representation in which text is intermixed with mathematical expressions even in situations where the actual abstract representation, for instance of the statement of a theorem, can be reduced to a single mathematical object. One reason for this representation choice is that the rendering process would otherwise produce a symbolic, typeset mathematical formula that might prove too difficult to understand for the students or simply just too hard to read. However, by representing this kind of mathematical text in a language-independent format such as the one provided by markup languages, it is possible to apply language technologies that generate the same text in a variety of languages including English, Spanish, Finnish, Swedish, French and Italian. The project results include editors for mathematical multilingual markup, a web service for generating multiple languages versions and a digital repository of multilingual interactive mathematical exercises and drill questions.
