A Structural-Lexical Measure of Semantic Similarity for Geo-Knowledge Graphs
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2015 Graphs have become ubiquitous structures to encode geographic knowledge online. The Semantic Web’s linked open data, folksonomies, wiki websites and open gazetteers can be seen as geo-knowledge graphs, that is labeled graphs whose vertices represent ...

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

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

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2019 Using a picture-auditory word recognition task, we examined how early child bilinguals access their languages and how the languages affect one another. Accuracy and response times in "false friends" (i.e., words with similar form but unrelated meanings) and semantically related words were compared with control conditions within and across languages and

Discovering Lexical Similarity Using Articulatory Feature-Based Phonetic Edit Distance
IEEE 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.

Characterising measures of lexical distributional similarity [PDF]
Proceedings 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.

Directional distributional similarity for lexical expansion [PDF]
Proceedings 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.

Semantic Data Set Construction from Human Clustering and Spatial Arrangement
Computational 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.

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