Compositional Sequence Generation in the Entorhinal–Hippocampal System

Entropy, 2022
Neurons in the medial entorhinal cortex exhibit multiple, periodically organized, firing fields which collectively appear to form an internal representation of space. Neuroimaging data suggest that this grid coding is also present in other cortical areas

Symbolic, Distributed, and Distributional Representations for Natural Language Processing in the Era of Deep Learning: A Survey

Frontiers in Robotics and AI, 2020
Natural language is inherently a discrete symbolic representation of human knowledge. Recent advances in machine learning (ML) and in natural language processing (NLP) seem to contradict the above intuition: discrete symbols are fading away, erased by ...

Overview of data preprocessing for machine learning applications in human microbiome research

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Although metagenomic sequencing is now the preferred technique to study microbiome-host interactions, analyzing and interpreting microbiome sequencing data presents challenges primarily attributed to the statistical specificities of the data (e.g ...

Compositional Semantic Parsing on Semi-Structured Tables [PDF]

, 2015
Two important aspects of semantic parsing for question answering are the breadth of the knowledge source and the depth of logical compositionality. While existing work trades off one aspect for another, this paper simultaneously makes progress on both ...

Linearity and compositionality in the semantics of binomial stable constructions [PDF]

Слово.ру: балтийский акцент
The article examines binomial stable syntactic constructions (BSSCs) as a distinct class of phraseologized expressions in Russian. The analysis focuses on the interaction between two key parameters of their semantic organisation: linearity and ...
