Cross-linguistic similarity and task demands in Japanese-English bilingual processing. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Even in languages that do not share script, bilinguals process cognates faster than matched noncognates in a range of tasks. The current research more fully explores what underpins the cognate 'advantage' in different script bilinguals (Japanese-English).

Operationalizing language-based population stratification for widening access to precision genomics in Africa [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health
BackgroundDespite remarkable advancements in genomic technologies, individuals of predominant African-related genetic similarity remain significantly under-represented, accounting for only 2.4% of published genome-wide association studies. This disparity

Co-occurrence Retrieval: A Flexible Framework for Lexical Distributional Similarity [PDF]

open access: yesComputational Linguistics, 2021
Techniques that exploit knowledge of distributional similarity between words have been proposed in many areas of Natural Language Processing. For example, in language modeling, the sparse data problem can be alleviated by estimating the probabilities of unseen co-occurrences of events from the probabilities of seen co-occurrences of similar events. In

Discovering Lexical Similarity Using Articulatory Feature-Based Phonetic Edit Distance

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2022
Lexical Similarity (LS) between two languages uncovers many interesting linguistic insights such as phylogenetic relationship, mutual intelligibility, common etymology, and loan words. There are various methods through which LS is evaluated.

Lexical Semantic Similarity Algorithm Based on How-net [PDF]

open access: yesJisuanji gongcheng, 2018
On the study of lexical similarity,sememe similarity and concept similarity,this paper propose a sememe similarity computation algorithm based on the How-net semantic tree.This algorithm considers the node distance,the node depth and the number of ...

Semantic Data Set Construction from Human Clustering and Spatial Arrangement

open access: yesComputational Linguistics, 2021
Research into representation learning models of lexical semantics usually utilizes some form of intrinsic evaluation to ensure that the learned representations reflect human semantic judgments.

Characterising measures of lexical distributional similarity [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 20th international conference on Computational Linguistics - COLING '04, 2004
This work investigates the variation in a word's distributionally nearest neighbours with respect to the similarity measure used. We identify one type of variation as being the relative frequency of the neighbour words with respect to the frequency of the target word.

Lexical Similarity Between Argument and Parameter Names: An Empirical Study

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Identifiers chosen by programmers convey rich semantic information that could be exploited to enhance program analysis for various software engineering tasks, e.g., anomaly detection, argument recommendation, and code completion.

Directional distributional similarity for lexical expansion [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the ACL-IJCNLP 2009 Conference Short Papers on - ACL-IJCNLP '09, 2009
Distributional word similarity is most commonly perceived as a symmetric relation. Yet, one of its major applications is lexical expansion, which is generally asymmetric. This paper investigates the nature of directional (asymmetric) similarity measures, which aim to quantify distributional feature inclusion.

Recognition of Chinese Lexical Entailment Relation Based on Word Vector [PDF]

open access: yesJisuanji gongcheng, 2016
Automatic recognition of English lexical entailment relation has many researches,and many recognition models are presented.But study on Chines lexical entailment is not sufficient while there have many studies on English lexical entailment from different
