The document provides an outline for Hilofumi Yamamoto's research and teaching. It summarizes his educational background, research interests, and contributions to students at Wollongong University. His research focuses on Japanese vocabulary and language teaching methods. Specific areas of research include the study of connotation and computer modeling of vocabulary using corpus linguistics techniques.
The document discusses performing incremental loads in SQL Server and SSIS. It describes:
1) Using T-SQL to identify new rows using a LEFT JOIN and updated rows by comparing all columns in an INNER JOIN. The rows are then inserted or updated respectively.
2) Implementing incremental loads in SSIS using a Lookup transformation to identify new and changed rows similarly to the T-SQL, and a Conditional Split to separate the rows into outputs which are loaded or updated using an OLE DB Destination and Command, respectively.
3) The approach maintains data integrity by only loading truly new or changed data in each load, making the process faster and using fewer resources than a full reload.
This document appears to be notes from a lecture or presentation on natural language processing and text mining techniques. It discusses topics like inverse document frequency, co-occurrence analysis, and graph-based representations of word relationships. Tables and graphs are included to illustrate co-occurrence patterns between words and how they are represented visually. The document also references various authors and their work related to semantics, meaning, and textual analysis.
The document discusses the development of a thesaurus of classical Japanese poetic vocabulary. It outlines how the thesaurus was created by analyzing poems from the Hachidaishu anthologies using techniques like tokenization, meta-code conversion, and matching original poems to scholarly translations to extract vocabulary terms and their meanings over time. The goal is to better understand the connotation and historical transition of classical poetic words in a longitudinal study.
1. This document presents an analysis of term weighting methods for information retrieval and text mining.
2. It examines inverse document frequency (idf), collection term frequency (ctf), and co-occurrence weight (cw) as term weighting schemes.
3. The results show that cw, which combines ctf, idf, and co-occurrence information, outperforms other term weighting methods by better representing term importance and relevance to documents.
The document discusses:
1. The development of a thesaurus of classical Japanese poetic vocabulary to better understand the connotations of words over time and how their usage changed.
2. The thesaurus is being developed using materials from the Hachidaishu, eight anthologies of Japanese poetry compiled between 905-2105 CE.
3. The thesaurus development involves processing the poetry data through a tokenizer, code converter, and other tools to extract and categorize the vocabulary terms according to their attributes.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

14. How to Build Models
• Use OP and 10 sets of CT (1,000 OP + 10,000 CT)
• Sentences are tokenised and transformed into words.
• Generate co-occurrence patterns which are:
→ combinations of any two words appearing in a text (a poem).
• Visualisation by Graph Theory
10
15. Example of Co-occurrence pattern
yuki no uchi ni haru wa ki ni keri uguisu no
snow of inside at spring (topic) come (past) (perfect) warbler of
Patterns may number up to 5,000.

24. Conclusion
• We can see the non-literal aspect of a word meaning through
visualisation.
• Graph models include fractal shapes.
• Co-occurrence pattern can indicate contextual information.
• Even if two objects seem similar, their meanings in poetry are very
different.

25. Language Teaching for Wollongong Students
• Motivation
1. “What a fantastic language Japanese is!”
2. “How cool learning Japanese is!”
• Learning other than Japanese using Japanese as a tool.
21
26. Japanese is special/fantastic!
1. Independent from other language family.
2. The Sixth place of the most spoken language.
3. Spoken by over one million people.
4. The language form has not been largely changed since 1,000 years
ago.
22
27. You can see Japanese everywhere!
• SUBARU
Hoshi wa SUBARU. (A star is SUBARU.)
→ SUBARU is the most beautiful star.
• CAMRY
a car name “TOYOTA CAMRY” but also “kanmuri” (crown)
→ Both are classical words.

28. My Contribution to the students’ learning
1. Keep students motivated/exciting.
e.g. using authentic materials such as film, music, anime, manga etc.
also computer assisted material/curriculum design.. + good assessment
2. Invite guest speakers/lectures from Japan
to write some project grant applications.
3. Send students to Japan
to promote exchange program
