AbstractToponym recognition is used to extract toponyms from natural language texts, which is a fundamental task of ubiquitous geographic information applications. Existing toponym recognition methods with state‐of‐the‐art performance mainly leverage supervised learning (i.e., deep‐learning‐based approaches) with parameters learned from massive ...

Research on the construction and application of the generalized toponym ontology
2010 Second IITA International Conference on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2010In the paper, the generalized toponym ontology(GTO) is constructed and consummate d by use of the topography vocabulary and correlative nation standards. The ontology is us ed to classify and encode the generalized toponym information, spatial topology relations reasoning based on Jena and knowledge retrieval. GTO is the future development trend of the

User evaluation of automatically generated keywords and toponyms for geo‐referenced images
Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2013This article presents the results of a user evaluation of automatically generated concept keywords and place names (toponyms) for geo‐referenced images. Automatically annotating images is becoming indispensable for effective information retrieval, since the number of geo‐referenced images available online is growing, yet many images are insufficiently ...

The Evolution of Language, 2008
We present a series of studies investigating the formation, generative power, and evolution of toponyms (i.e. topographic names). The domain chosen for this project is the spatial concepts related to places in an environment, one of the key sets of concepts to be grounded in autonomous agents.

Are the contents of toponyms meaningless, as it is often claimed in linguistic literature, or can the generic parts in toponyms, such as hill in Black Hill, be used to infer landscape descriptions? We investigate this question by, firstly, linking gazetteer data with topographic characteristics, and, secondly, by conducting analysis of how the use of ...

Spatial Language for Mobile Robots: The Formation and Generative Grounding of Toponyms
For robots to interact with each other and humans in a human environment, it is important for themto be able to use language meaningfully in practical applications. Grounding connects words andsentences with their meanings and is a necessary foundation for the meaningful usage of language.Combining simple concepts provides a way to label other simple ...openaire +3 more sources
