This document discusses key concepts in natural language processing including:
- N-grams which are sequences of consecutive words that are used to capture word order.
- Parts of speech tagging which assigns a grammatical category (noun, verb, adjective) to each word.
- Parsing which involves analyzing a text and assigning structure according to context-free grammar rules, often represented as parse trees.
- Dependency parsing which identifies grammatical relationships between words directly rather than through constituents in a parse tree.
Finite state automata (deterministic and nondeterministic finite automata) provide decisions regarding the acceptance and rejection of a string while transducers provide some output for a given input. Thus, the two machines are quite useful in language processing tasks.

This paper performs a detailed analysis on the alignment of Portuguese contractions, based on a previously aligned bilingual corpus. The alignment task was performed manually in a subset of the English-Portuguese CLUE4Translation Alignment Collection. The initial parallel corpus was pre-processed and a decision was made as to whether the contraction should be maintained or decomposed in the alignment. Decomposition was required in the cases in which the two words that have been concatenated, i.e., the preposition and the determiner or pronoun, go in two separate translation alignment pairs (PT- [no seio de] [a União Europeia] EN- [within] [the European Union]). Most contractions required decomposition in contexts where they are positioned at the end of a multiword unit. On the other hand, contractions tend to be maintained when they occur at the beginning or in the middle of the multiword unit, i.e., in the frozen part of the multiword (PT- [no que diz respeito a] EN- [with regard to] or PT- [além disso] EN-[in addition]. A correct alignment of multiwords and phrasal units containing contractions is instrumental for machine translation, paraphrasing, and variety adaptation.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
Sachpazis:Terzaghi Bearing Capacity Estimation in simple terms with Calculati...Dr.Costas Sachpazis
Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure. The Calculation HTML Code included.
3. Natural Language Processing
Some basic terms:
• Syntax: the allowable structures in the language: sentences,
phrases, affixes (-ing, -ed, -ment, etc.).
• Semantics: the meaning(s) of texts in the language.
• Part-of-Speech (POS): the category of a word (noun, verb,
preposition etc.).
• Bag-of-words (BoW): a featurization that uses a vector of word
counts (or binary) ignoring order.
• N-gram: for a fixed, small N (2-5 is common), an n-gram is a
consecutive sequence of words in a text.
4. Bag of words Featurization
Assuming we have a dictionary mapping words to a unique integer
id, a bag-of-words featurization of a sentence could look like this:
Sentence: The cat sat on the mat
word id’s: 1 12 5 3 1 14
The BoW featurization would be the vector:
Vector 2, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1
position 1 3 5 12 14
In practice this would be stored as a sparse vector of (id, count)s:
(1,2),(3,1),(5,1),(12,1),(14,1)
Note that the original word order is lost, replaced by the order of
id’s.
5. N-grams
Because word order is lost, the sentence meaning is weakened.
This sentence has quite a different meaning but the same BoW
vector:
Sentence: The mat sat on the cat
word id s: 1 14 5 3 1 12
BoW featurization:
Vector 2, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1
But word order is important, especially the order of nearby words.
N-grams capture this, by modeling tuples of consecutive words.
6. N-grams
Sentence: The cat sat on the mat
2-grams: the-cat, cat-sat, sat-on, on-the, the-mat
Notice how even these short n-grams “make sense” as linguistic
units. For the other sentence we would have different features:
Sentence: The mat sat on the cat
2-grams: the-mat, mat-sat, sat-on, on-the, the-cat
We can go still further and construct 3-grams:
Sentence: The cat sat on the mat
3-grams: the-cat-sat, cat-sat-on, sat-on-the, on-the-mat
Which capture still more of the meaning:
Sentence: The mat sat on the cat
3-grams: the-mat-sat, mat-sat-on, sat-on-the, on-the-cat
7. N-gram Language Models
N-grams can be used to build statistical models of texts.
When this is done, they are called n-gram language models.
An n-gram language model associates a probability with each n-
gram, such that the sum over all n-grams (for fixed n) is 1.

11. Shallow Parsing or Chunking
• There are five major categories of phrases:
• Noun phrase (NP): These are phrases where a noun acts as the head word. Noun
phrases act as a subject or object to a verb.
• Verb phrase (VP): These phrases are lexical units that have a verb acting as the
head word. Usually, there are two forms of verb phrases. One form has the verb
components as well as other entities such as nouns, adjectives, or adverbs as parts
of the object.
• Adjective phrase (ADJP): These are phrases with an adjective as the head word.
Their main role is to describe or qualify nouns and pronouns in a sentence, and
they will be either placed before or after the noun or pronoun.
• Adverb phrase (ADVP): These phrases act like adverbs since the adverb acts as the
head word in the phrase. Adverb phrases are used as modifiers for nouns, verbs,
or adverbs themselves by providing further details that describe or qualify them.
• Prepositional phrase (PP): These phrases usually contain a preposition as the head
word and other lexical components like nouns, pronouns, and so on. These act like
an adjective or adverb describing other words or phrases.

16. Grammars
Grammars comprise rules that specify acceptable sentences in the
language: (S is the sentence or root node) “the cat sat on the mat”
• S NP VP
• S NP VP PP (the cat) (sat) (on the mat)
• NP DT NN (the cat), (the mat)
• VP VB NP
• VP VBD
• PP IN NP
• DT “the”
• NN “mat”, “cat”
• VBD “sat”
• IN “on”
17. Grammars
The reconstruction of a sequence of grammar productions from a
sentence is called “parsing” the sentence.
It is most conveniently represented as a tree:
19. Parse Trees
In bracket notation:
(ROOT
(S
(NP (DT the) (NN cat))
(VP (VBD sat)
(PP (IN on)
(NP (DT the) (NN mat))))))
20. Grammars
There are typically multiple ways to produce the same sentence.
Consider the statement by Groucho Marx:
“While I was in Africa, I shot an elephant in my pajamas”
“How he got into my pajamas, I don’t know”
23. Recursion in Grammars
Its also possible to have
“sentences” inside other
sentences…
S NP VP
VP VB NP SBAR
SBAR IN S
SBAR stands for Subordinate
clause
For example;
After she ate the cake, Emma
visited Tony in his room.
Recursion is common in grammar rules, e.g.
Because of this, sentences of arbitrary length are possible.
25. PCFGs
Complex sentences can be parsed in many ways, most of which
make no sense or are extremely improbable (like Groucho’s
example).
Probabilistic Context-Free Grammars (PCFGs) associate and learn
probabilities for each rule:
S NP VP 0.3
S NP VP PP 0.7
The parser then tries to find the most likely sequence of
productions that generate the given sentence. This adds more
realistic “world knowledge” and generally gives much better results.
Most state-of-the-art parsers these days use PCFGs.
26. Systems
• NLTK: Python-based NLP system. Many modules, good
visualization tools, but not quite state-of-the-art performance.
• Stanford Parser: Another comprehensive suite of tools (also POS
tagger), and state-of-the-art accuracy. Has the definitive
dependency module.
• Berkeley Parser: Slightly higher parsing accuracy (than Stanford)
but not as many modules.
• Note: high-quality parsing is usually very slow, but see:
https://github.com/dlwh/puck
27. Dependencies
In a constituency parse, there is no direct relation between the
constituents and words from the sentence (except for leaf nodes
which produce a single word).
In dependency parsing, the idea is to decompose the sentence into
relations directly between words.
Lets look at a simple example:
29. Dependencies
From the dependency tree, we can obtain a “sketch” of the
sentence. i.e. by starting at the root we can look down one level to
get:
“cat sat on”
And then by looking for the object of the prepositional child, we get:
“cat sat on mat”
We can easily ignore determiners “a, the”.
And importantly, adjectival and adverbial modifiers generally
connect to their targets:
