Poster presented at the Semeval 2015 workshop. Our system clustered words based on their contexts in order to identify their underlying meanings or senses.
Phrase structure grammar models the internal structure of sentences in a hierarchical organization. It represents sentences as consisting of phrases, which are made up of words, which are made up of morphemes and phonemes. Phrase structure grammars use rewrite rules to break down syntactic structures into their constituent parts in a step-by-step manner. Deep structure represents the underlying meaning of a sentence, while surface structure is the actual form used. Transformational rules derive surface structure from deep structure.
This document discusses Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG) and Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar (GPSG). LFG was developed in the 1970s and emphasizes analyzing phenomena in lexical and functional terms. It uses two levels of structure: c-structure, which is a tree structure, and f-structure, which captures grammatical functions. GPSG was developed in 1985 and is confined to context-free phrase structure rules. It uses immediate dominance and linear precedence rules.

The document summarizes research on using lexical decision lists to screen Twitter users for depression and PTSD. It finds that a simple machine learning method using n-grams of varying length up to 6 words and binary weighting achieved the best results. Emoticons and emojis were strong indicators. The top features indicating depression included terms expressing sadness, while PTSD indicators included abbreviations and URLs. It suggests self-reporting of conditions may indicate something else requiring discussion.
The document discusses key aspects of the human communication process. It defines communication and explains that communication occurs through the exchange of messages between individuals. It then outlines the basic process of human communication, including how a message is encoded by the sender, enters the receiver's sensory world, is interpreted based on the receiver's unique filters and experiences, and can trigger a response that continues the cycle. Factors like perceptions, attitudes, beliefs and experiences can impact how individuals communicate by influencing their interpretations of messages.
What are the different Senses / Meanings of the Word StatisticsTanvir Akhtar
Statistics has three main meanings derived from its Latin and Italian roots referring to political states.
1. In plural form, it refers to facts that are systematically arranged in ascending or descending order.
2. Singularly, it is the branch of mathematics dealing with collection, summarization, and analysis of data.
3. It also refers to values obtained from samples that are used to draw inferences about a population. Key terms are population (the total group), parameter (unknown values in a population), sample (a subset of a population), and statistic (a known value from a sample).
The document discusses the history and evolution of dictionaries from the first English dictionary in 1604 to modern computational approaches using natural language processing. It describes early dictionaries like Robert Cawdrey's Table Alphabeticall and Samuel Johnson's A Dictionary of the English Language. Later influential dictionaries included Noah Webster's American Dictionary of the English Language and the Oxford English Dictionary. The document proposes that natural language processing techniques like analyzing word frequencies, collocations, and measures of association could help identify emerging words and senses in new text, similar to the work of lexicographers in compiling dictionaries.

DETECTING OXYMORON IN A SINGLE STATEMENTWarNik Chow
This document proposes a method to detect oxymorons in single statements by analyzing word vector representations. It introduces word vectors and word analogy tests. The proposed method constructs offset vector sets for antonyms and synonyms to check if word pairs in statements are contradictory. It applies techniques like part-of-speech tagging, lemmatization, and negation counting. The experiment uses pre-trained GloVe vectors and oxymoron/truism datasets with mixed results. Future work could apply dependency parsing and word embeddings specialized for antonyms to improve accuracy.

Rule based approach to sentiment analysis at ROMIP 2011Dmitry Kan
The document describes a rule-based approach to sentiment analysis of Russian language texts. It uses linguistic rules and dictionaries of positive and negative words to classify text segments as positive, negative, or neutral. The algorithm performs shallow parsing and applies rules about negation, conjunctions, and sentiment combinations. It achieved 90% precision on positive classifications for cases where annotators agreed, and was able to classify sentiment at the subclause, sentence, and full text levels. The approach ranked 14th out of 27 systems on a movie reviews dataset for binary classification and 14th out of 21 for 3-class classification.
Introduction to Distributional SemanticsAndre Freitas
This document provides an introduction to distributional semantics. It discusses how distributional semantic models (DSMs) represent word meanings as vectors based on their linguistic contexts in large corpora. This distributional hypothesis states that words that appear in similar contexts tend to have similar meanings. The document outlines how DSMs are built, important parameters like context type and weighting, and examples like latent semantic analysis. It also discusses how DSMs can support applications like semantic search. Finally, it introduces how compositional semantics explores representing the meanings of phrases and sentences compositionally based on the meanings of their parts.
This document discusses various natural language processing techniques that can be used for effective information retrieval, including stemming, stopwords removal, part-of-speech tagging, chunking, and sentiment analysis. It introduces the Naive Bayes classifier algorithm and gives examples of how it can be used to classify sentiment. Finally, it discusses evaluating sentiment analysis systems using precision and recall metrics.
This document discusses word space models and random indexing for determining text similarity. It explains that word space models plot words in a multidimensional space based on co-occurrence to determine semantic similarity. Random indexing is an efficient method that incrementally builds context vectors for words without constructing a large co-occurrence matrix first. The document outlines the key parameters for random indexing and discusses its benefits over models like LSA in being able to handle data incrementally with less computational resources.
introduction to machine learning and nlpMahmoud Farag
The document discusses natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning. It defines NLP as a branch of artificial intelligence that develops systems allowing computers to understand and generate human language. NLP encompasses tasks like machine translation, speech recognition, named entity recognition, text classification, summarization and question answering. The document also discusses the complexities of human language and different levels of linguistic analysis used in NLP, including syntactic, semantic, discourse, pragmatic and morphological analysis.
The document discusses language independent methods for clustering similar contexts without using syntactic or lexical resources. It describes representing contexts as vectors of lexical features, reducing dimensionality, and clustering the vectors. Key methods include identifying unigram, bigram and co-occurrence features from corpora using frequency counts and association measures, and representing contexts in first or second order vectors based on feature presence.

The document discusses various approaches to word sense disambiguation including supervised learning approaches like Naive Bayes classifiers, bootstrapping approaches like assigning one sense per discourse, and unsupervised approaches like Schutze's word space model.

Compound Noun Polysemy and Sense Enumeration in WordNet Biswanath Dutta
Sense enumeration in WordNet is one of the main reasons behind the problem of high polysemous nature of WordNet. The sense enumeration refers to misconstruction that results in wrong assigning of a synset to a term. In this paper, we propose a novel approach to discover and solve the problem of sense enumerations in compound noun polysemy in WordNet. The proposed solution reduces the number of sense enumerations in WordNet and thus its high polysemous nature without affecting its efficiency as a lexical resource for natural language processing.
This chapter introduces vector semantics for representing word meaning in natural language processing applications. Vector semantics learns word embeddings from text distributions that capture how words are used. Words are represented as vectors in a multidimensional semantic space derived from neighboring words in text. Models like word2vec use neural networks to generate dense, real-valued vectors for words from large corpora without supervision. Word vectors can be evaluated intrinsically by comparing similarity scores to human ratings for word pairs in context and without context.
A Neural Probabilistic Language Model.pptx
Bengio, Yoshua, et al. "A neural probabilistic language model." Journal of machine learning research 3.Feb (2003): 1137-1155.
A goal of statistical language modeling is to learn the joint probability function of sequences of
words in a language. This is intrinsically difficult because of the curse of dimensionality: a word
sequence on which the model will be tested is likely to be different from all the word sequences seen
during training. Traditional but very successful approaches based on n-grams obtain generalization
by concatenating very short overlapping sequences seen in the training set. We propose to fight the
curse of dimensionality by learning a distributed representation for words which allows each
training sentence to inform the model about an exponential number of semantically neighboring
sentences. The model learns simultaneously (1) a distributed representation for each word along
with (2) the probability function for word sequences, expressed in terms of these representations.
Generalization is obtained because a sequence of words that has never been seen before gets high
probability if it is made of words that are similar (in the sense of having a nearby representation) to
words forming an already seen sentence. Training such large models (with millions of parameters)
within a reasonable time is itself a significant challenge. We report on experiments using neural
networks for the probability function, showing on two text corpora that the proposed approach
significantly improves on state-of-the-art n-gram models, and that the proposed approach allows to
take advantage of longer contexts.
This lectures provides students with an introduction to natural language processing, with a specific focus on the basics of two applications: vector semantics and text classification.

The document summarizes several papers related to query recommendation.
1. One paper proposes a probabilistic model to dynamically determine answer types for questions instead of using predefined types. The model constructs a probabilistic distribution of words occurring in question contexts.
2. Another paper models the query log as a query-flow graph and proposes a mixture model to interpret it based on hidden search intents. An intent-biased random walk is used for recommendations.
3. A third paper studies factors like task complexity that affect a user's ability to express their intent in queries. An empirical study analyzed search sessions to understand how well intents were conveyed. Intents have a structure reflecting the user's mental model.

Hate speech is language intended to cause harm against a particular individual or group, often based on their racial, ethnic, religious, or gender identity. Hate speech is widespread on social media, and is increasingly common in mainstream political discourse. That said, there is no clear consensus as to what constitutes hate speech. In addition, human moderators come with their own biases, and automatic computer algorithms are often easy to fool. All of these factors complicate the efforts of social media platforms to filter or reduce such content. During this interactive workshop we will discuss examples from Twitter in the hopes of reaching some consensus as to what is and is not hate speech. We will also try to determine what kind of knowledge a human moderator or an automatic algorithm would need to have in order to make this determination. We will try to avoid particularly graphic examples of hate speech and focus on more subtle cases.

It discusses that research involves asking interesting questions about the world and conducting experiments to answer those questions. Dr. Pedersen's research interests include natural language processing tasks like word sense disambiguation, semantic similarity, and collocation discovery. To succeed, a student needs enthusiasm for research, strong writing skills, and the ability to work independently while communicating regularly with Dr. Pedersen. Previous students have explored various NLP topics and many have gone on to PhD programs. The reading provided is intended to assess the student's understanding and interest in Dr. Pedersen's research areas.
This document summarizes a tutorial on measuring the similarity and relatedness of concepts. It discusses the distinction between semantic similarity and relatedness. It describes several common measures of similarity that use information from ontologies, such as path-based measures, measures that incorporate path and depth, and measures that incorporate information content. It also discusses measures of relatedness that can be used for concepts that are not connected by ontological relations, such as definition-based measures and measures based on gloss vectors constructed from corpus data. Experimental results generally show that gloss vector measures perform best, followed by definition-based measures, with path-based measures performing the worst.

The document discusses word sense induction systems developed at the University of Minnesota Duluth that were used to cluster web search results. The systems represented web snippets using second-order co-occurrences and were evaluated in Task 11 of SemEval-2013. The best performing system (Sys1) used more data in the form of web-like text and achieved an F-10 score of 46.53, outperforming systems that used larger amounts of out-of-domain news text. Future work could look at augmenting data by expanding snippets and using more web-based resources like Wikipedia.
These are the slides for a talk given at the University of Alabama, Birmingham on April 19, 2013. The title of the talk is "Measuring Similarity and Relatedness in the Biomedical Domain : Methods and Applications"
Measuring Semantic Similarity and Relatedness in the Biomedical Domain : Methods and Applications - presented Feb 21, 2012 as a webinar to the Mayo Clinic BMI group.
The document summarizes a tutorial on measuring semantic similarity and relatedness between medical concepts. It introduces different types of measures, including path-based measures, measures using information content that incorporate concept specificity, and measures of relatedness that use definition overlaps or corpus co-occurrence information. The tutorial aims to explain the distinction between similarity and relatedness, describe available measures, and how to evaluate and apply them in clinical natural language processing tasks.
The document describes experiments conducted to evaluate measures of association for identifying the compositionality of word pairs. It discusses two hypotheses: 1) word pairs with higher association scores are less compositional, and 2) more frequent word pairs are more compositional. Three systems are described that use different measures of association (t-score, PMI, PMI) to classify word pair compositionality in a shared task. While the t-score performed best at identifying compositionality, PMI and frequency-based measures showed less success.
The document discusses replicability and reproducibility in ACL conferences. It argues that empirical papers should include software and data so results can be reproduced. An analysis found that most papers from ACL 2011 did not include software or data. Generally descriptions were incomplete and few papers allowed true reproducibility. The author calls for higher standards, weighting replicability more in reviews, and removing blind submissions to improve transparency.
This document summarizes research comparing different methods of measuring semantic similarity between concepts based on information content. It finds that using untagged text to derive information content, rather than the largest sense-tagged corpus, results in higher correlation with human judgments of similarity. Experiments showed no advantage to using sense-tagged text and that information content measures outperformed path-based measures, with estimates based just on taxonomy structure performing almost as well as using raw newspaper text.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Reimagining Your Library Space: How to Increase the Vibes in Your Library No ...Diana Rendina
Librarians are leading the way in creating future-ready citizens – now we need to update our spaces to match. In this session, attendees will get inspiration for transforming their library spaces. You’ll learn how to survey students and patrons, create a focus group, and use design thinking to brainstorm ideas for your space. We’ll discuss budget friendly ways to change your space as well as how to find funding. No matter where you’re at, you’ll find ideas for reimagining your space in this session.
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.
Duluth : Word Sense Discrimination in the Service of Lexicography
1. Duluth : Word Sense Discrimination
in the Service of Lexicography
SemEval 2015 - Task 15
Corpus Pattern Analysis
Ted Pedersen
University of Minnesota, Duluth
tpederse@d.umn.edu
http://senseclusters.sourceforge.net
2. The Task?
Corpus Pattern Analysis
● CPA parsing : syntactic parsing
and semantic role labeling
● CPA clustering: group together
semantically similar contexts
● CPA lexicography: describe verb
patterns based on syntax and
semantics
4. Duluth systems
● Participated in Subtask 2
● Viewed as classical word sense discrimination (or
induction) problem
– Given N target words in context, group into
k clusters based on the similarity of the
contexts
● Automatically discovered number of senses
● AKA SenseClusters
– http://senseclusters.sourceforge.net
5. Pre-processing
● Remove non alphanumeric values
● Convert all text to lower case
● Convert all numeric values to a single
generic string
6. 1st
order features
● If each context is represented as a
vector of features, find the
contexts with the most values in
common
● How many words in each context
are the same?
● Contexts with larger number of
shared words are considered to be
clusters
7. 1st
order example
● i operate a machine
● my surgeon will operate on me today
● he can operate the lathe
● your doctor operated with skill and
confidence
● … no matches among the contexts
(other than the target word)
8. 2nd
order co-occurrence features
● If each context is represented as a
vector of features, find the
contexts that have the most
friends in common
● Each (content) word in a context is
replaced by a vector of co-
occurring words
9. 2nd
order co-occurrence example
● Machine → part, drill, shop
● Lathe → part, drill, mill
● Surgeon → scalpel, nurse, prescribe
● Doctor → waiting, nurse, prescribe
10. 2nd
order co-occurrence example
● i operate a (part, drill, shop)
● my (scalpel, nurse, prescribe) will
operate on me today
● he can operate the (part, drill, mill)
● your (waiting, nurse, prescribe)
operated with skill and confidence
11. run1
●
2nd
order co-occurrences
● Features found within contexts
– Words that occur within 8
positions of target verb 2 or
more times
– Target word co-occurrences (tco)
– Stop words retained
12. run2
●
2nd
order co-occurrences
● Features found in WordNet glosses
– Adjacent words that occur 5 or
more times together
– Bigrams (bi)
– Any bigram where both words are
stop word is removed
16. Lessons?
● Verbs are (still) hard
– Many methods and previous Semeval
tasks geared towards nouns
● External corpus (WordNet) not helpful
● Unigrams surprisingly effective
● Human lexicographer job security is robust
– for now
