The interfaces used in business intelligence and data analytics are becoming smarter, conversational, and more powerful because, at long last, computational semantics are starting to be applied. The ...

IWCS is the bi-yearly meeting of SIGSEM, the ACL special interest group on semantics; this year’s edition is hosted by Queen Mary’s Computational Linguistics Lab. The aim of the IWCS conference is to ...

The authors examine aspect and the semantic classification of verbs, two areas of concern for natural language processing not often studied in the context of computational linguistics. A five-way ...

Distributional semantics obtains representations of the meaning of words by processing thousands of texts and extracting generalizations using computational algorithms. Despite the popularity of ...

Probabilistic programming languages (PPLs) have emerged as a transformative tool for expressing complex statistical models and automating inference procedures. By integrating probability theory into ...

Our goal is richer and more accurate representations of utterances in English, Chinese, Hindi/Urdu, and Arabic. Our principle approach involves the application of supervised machine learning to data ...
