SK-languages as a Powerful and Flexible Semantic Formalism for the Systems of Cross-Lingual Intelligent Information Access
Informatica. An International Journal of Computing and Informatics. 2017. Vol. 41. No. 2. P. 221–232.
Fomichov V. A.
The first starting point of this paper is the broadly accepted idea of employing, as a promising methodology, an artificial semantic language-intermediary for the realization of automatic cross-lingual intelligent information access to natural language (NL) texts on the Web. The second one is the emergence in computational semantics during 2013-2016 of great interest in the semantic formalism (more exactly, notation) called Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR). This formalism was introduced in 2013 in an ACL publication by a group consisting of ten researchers from UK and USA. This paper shows that much broader prospects for creating semantic languages-intermediaries in comparison with AMR are opened by the theory of K-representations (TKR), developed by V. A. Fomichov. The basic mathematical model of TKR describes the regularities of NL structured meanings. The mathematical essence is that this model introduces a system consisting of ten partial operations on conceptual structures. Initial version of this model was published in 1996 in Informatica (Slovenia). The second version of the model (stated in a monograph released by Springer in 2010) defines a class of formal languages called SK-languages (standard knowledge languages). It is demonstrated that SK-languages allow us to simulate all expressive mechanisms of AMR. The advantages in comparison with AMR are, in particular, the possibilities to construct semantic representations of compound infinitive constructions (expressing goals, commitments, etc), of compound descriptions of notions and sets, and of complex discourses and knowledge pieces.

This article examines examples of metaphorical creativity in the works of contemporary American writer Chuck Palahniuk, particularly in the context of describing psychoemotional states. The study examines twenty-six works by Palahniuk (twenty-three short stories and three novels) and identifies examples of metaphorical creativity in the conceptualization of mental states. The analysis focuses on Palahniuk's unconventional ...

Although epistemic stance in academic discourse has been extensively researched
in linguistics, relatively little is known about diachronic change and variation in its expression
across disciplines, and still less about the grant proposal abstract, a genre produced under strong
promotional pressure. The present paper addresses this gap by testing whether the widely reported trend towards research “hype” is ...

This paper is devoted to the influence of Chodasevič’s poetic technique on Mandel´štam’s poetry. In this work we make an attempt to analyze Mandel´štam’s late Novye stichi (“Ne govori nikomu…”, “Kuda kak strašno nam s toboj…” and “My s toboj na kuchne posidim…”), which are connected to each other through the theme of fear. From ...

Verbal and visual metaphorical and metonymic images are key instruments of political satire, enabling the concise and expressive conveyance of evaluative attitudes toward socio-political realities. However, the multi-level mechanism of creating and decoding such figurative constructs in polycode cartoon texts has not yet received a systematic account. The aim of this study is to identify ...

Технологии автоматического распознавания речи (АРР) к настоящему моменту стали базовым компонентом бэкенд-инфраструктуры различных голосовых и когнитивных ассистентов, обеспечивая доступ пользователей к коммерческим сервисам и государственным платформам. Однако из-за неравномерного распределения данных, на которых модели АРР обучаются, острой становится проблема предвзятости моделей при работе с атипичной речью. Цель исследования заключается в оценке качества распознавания и сравнении ...

The cardinality-constrained Markowitz problem is NP-hard and traditionally solved with commercial MIQP solvers. Following the 2022 export restrictions that rendered both commercial MIQP software and cloud quantum platforms (IBM Quantum, D-Wave Leap) inaccessible from the Russian Federation, practitioners require open-source alternatives. This paper systematically compares three solver families for the discrete mean-variance problem: two open-source ...

While remote sensing retrievals of GPP have reached maturity, Reco estimation remains underexplored and ultimately cast bias on NEE.

The category of coherent sheaves is then the quotient qgr(𝐴) of the category of finitely presented graded modules by the subcategory of torsion modules.

If a symmetric multilinear algebra is weakly nil, then it is Engel. This result may be regarded as an infinite-dimensional analogue of the well-known Jacobian theorem, which states that if a polynomial mapping has a polynomial inverse, then its Jacobian matrix is invertible. This refines a theorem of Gerstenhaber and partially answers a question posed ...
