Cross-Level Semantic Similarity in Newswire Texts and Software Code Comments: Insights from Serbian Data in the AVANTES Project
Proceedings of the Conference on Language Technologies and Digital Humanities, Ljubljana, Slovenia. 2022. P. 124–131.
This paper presents the Serbian datasets developed within the project Advancing Novel Textual Similarity-based Solutions in Software Development – AVANTES, intended for the study of Cross-Level Semantic Similarity (CLSS). CLSS measures the level of semantic overlap between texts of different lengths, and it also refers to the problem of establishing such a measure automatically. The problem was first formulated about a decade ago, but research on it has been sparse and limited to English. The AVANTES project aims to change this through the study of CLSS in Serbian, focusing on two different text domains – newswire and software code comments – and on two text length combinations – phrase-sentence and sentence-paragraph. We present and compare two newly created datasets, describing the process of their annotation with fine-grained semantic similarity scores, and outlining a preliminary linguistic analysis. We also give an overview of the ongoing detailed linguistic annotation targeted at detecting the core linguistic indicators of CLSS.

The determination of new words and meanings is a key issue in lexical history studies. However,
common reliance on identifying “the earliest examples” can be challenged by textual complexity and subjective
disagreements. Focusing on the emergence of the FAST meaning of kuai (快), this study proposes criteria for
identifying new meanings from the perspective of the lexical system. ...

The fi rst period is tied to the general adoption of Christian names, where

The article examines Old Russian anthroponyms with the suffix -ec-, originally conveying the meaning ‘less than X’. A diachronic corpus study of
11th–17th-century texts reveals that while this suffix lacked inherent pejorative
connotations in Old Russian sources, contextual (adherent) pejoration is clearly
observable. For pre-15th-century chronicles, two primary usage patterns are
identified—1) characters with explicit negative evaluation, and 2) ...

The story of the Tower of Babel (Gen 11:1-9) is one of the key episodes in the narratives of the Book of Genesis. In modern scholarship, various—often sharply divergent—datings of this pericope are proposed, as well as different interpretations of its place in the picture of the formation of the biblical text that was put ...

Like other narratives in the Book of Genesis, the story of Cain and Abel (Gen 4:1–16) has been studied and commented upon for more than two millennia. However, recent scholarship has introduced significant revisions to traditional interpretations. Over the past five years, several monumental commentaries on Genesis 1–11 have been published, offering new—and sometimes mutually ...

nouns and reports the results of corpus and experimental studies. In some languages,
including Shughni, the marking of plural nouns is not compulsory. Many
factors such as animacy, referentiality, morphological and semantic properties,
or syntactic position may determine the presence or absence of number marking.

This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...
