Populating a Knowledge Base with Object-Location Relations Using Distributional Semantics [PDF]
International audienceThe paper presents an approach to extract knowledge from large text corpora, in particular knowledge that facilitates object manipulation by embodied intelligent systems that need to act in the world. As a first step, our goal is to

A computational model of the referential semantics of projective prepositions [PDF]
In this paper we present a framework for interpreting locative expressions containing the prepositions in front of and behind. These prepositions have different semantics in the viewer-centred and intrinsic frames of reference (Vandeloise, 1991).

Degradation Rate Location Dependency of Photovoltaic Systems
A main challenge towards ensuring improved lifetime performance and reduction of financial risks of photovoltaic (PV) technologies remains the accurate degradation quantification of field systems and the dependency of this performance loss rate to ...

On the Privacy Implications of Location Semantics [PDF]
Mobile users increasingly make use of location-based online services enabled by localization systems. Not only do they share their locations to obtain contextual services in return (e.g., 'nearest restaurant'), but they also share, with their friends ...

Faults in the power system affect the reliability, safety, and stability. Power-distribution systems are familiar with the different faults that can damage the overall performance of the entire system, from which they need to be effectively cleared ...

Positron emission particle tracking (PEPT) has offered important insights into the internal dynamics of multiphase flows. High precision and frequency measurements of the location of the tracer particle are required to resolve individual eddies at the ...

Information–Theoretic Aspects of Location Parameter Estimation under Skew–Normal Settings
In several applications, the assumption of normality is often violated in data with some level of skewness, so skewness affects the mean’s estimation. The class of skew–normal distributions is considered, given their flexibility for modeling data with ...

A Posterior p-Value for Homogeneity Testing of the Three-Sample Problem
In this paper, we study a special kind of finite mixture model. The sample drawn from the model consists of three parts. The first two parts are drawn from specified density functions, f1 and f2, while the third one is drawn from the mixture.

Delivering real-world ubiquitous location systems [PDF]
Location-enhanced applications are poised to become the first real-world example of ubiquitous computing. In this paper, we emphasize the practical aspects of getting location-enhanced applications deployed on existing devices, such as laptops, tablets ...
