Sentence Simplification for Text Processing
Propositional density and syntactic complexity are two features of sentences which affect the ability of humans and machines to process them effectively. In this thesis, I present a new approach to automatic sentence simplification which processes sentences containing compound clauses and complex …

Leveraging Knowledge Bases in Web Text Processing
The Web contains more text than any other source in human history, and continues to expand rapidly. Computer algorithms to process and extract knowledge from Web text have the potential not only to improve Web search, but also to collect a sizable fraction of human knowledge and use it to enable …

StarLogo TNG : the convergence of graphical programming and text processing
… from some who object to the exclusion of a textual language. Recognizing the benefits of text processing and the power of controlling software with a keyboard, I sought to incorporate text-processing techniques into TNG's graphical language. The key component of this work is an innovation …

Electronic text processing in the large South African life assurance companies
… for production typing led to a new term "word processing". In this research word processing is considered to be part only of a more comprehensive concept - electronic text processing. This research project is directed towards the role of electronic text processing as an integral part of …

Dyslexia, problem solving and text processing : a conceptual framework describing reading difficulties in dyslexia as an information-processing problem
… est définie comme trouble de lecture dans le contexte de l'éducation. L'objectif de ce mémoire était de développer un cadre conceptuel théorique dans lequel les troubles de lecture chez les enfants dyslexiques sont dû à une difficulté en résolution de problèmes dans le traitement de …

On lexical level matching
… natural language understanding applications, text processing requires comparing lexical units: words, phrases, name entities and sentences. A significant amount of research has taken place in studying evaluating similarity metrics between those units. In this thesis, we summarize some research …

Character recognition and information retrieval
… and information retrieval, that are used for text processing. Character recognition translates text image data to a computer-coded format; information retrieval stores these data and provides efficient access to the text. The necessity of their eventual coupling is obvious. Their sequential …

Unsupervised multilingual learning
… us to substantially improve performance for core text processing tasks, such as morphological segmentation, part-of-speech tagging, and syntactic parsing. Besides these traditional NLP tasks, we also present a multilingual model for lost language deciphersment. We test this model on the ancient …

The use of text structure among EFL Thai students and its effects on their reading comprehension
… and learning, this study investigated the use of text structure among EFL Thai students and its effects on their reading comprehension. It was designed with an underlying assumption that readers who possess the previously acquired knowledge of the organizational patterns of text will be aware of …

Generating computer programs from natural language descriptions
… language in three different computing domains: text processing, solving math problems, and performing robotic tasks in a virtual world. In all cases the resulting systems provide significant performance gains over strong baselines which do not exploit the underlying system capabilities to help …

TONGS: TLDR; Opinion Network Guide System
<p>In the modern world, huge amounts of text are being generated every minute. For example, Twitter users post their current emotions in tweets, while Facebook users vent about their experience in posts. In just one minute, Twitter users upload 350,000 tweets, and Facebook users post anywhere from …

A Study of Graphically Chosen Features for Representation of TREC Topic-Document Sets
… representation is important for computer-based text processing. Good document representations must include at least the most salient concepts of the document. Documents exist in a multidimensional space that difficult the identification of what concepts to include. A current problem is to …

Quantum Algorithms For String Problems
… quantum query algorithms for two important text processing problems: Longest Common Substring and Lexicographically Minimal String Rotation. Specifically, we show that: - Longest Common Substring can be solved by a quantum algorithm in Õ(n²⸍³) time, improving upon the Õ(n⁵⸍⁶)-time algorithm …

Modeling Narrative Discourse
… kinds are ubiquitous in daily life, contemporary text processing techniques typically do not leverage the aspects that separate narrative from expository discourse. We describe two approaches to the problem. The first approach considers the conversational networks to be found in literary fiction …

Interpretable neural models for natural language processing
… we present a class of sequence operations for text processing. The proposed component generalizes from convolution operations and gated aggregations. As justifications, we relate this component to string kernels, i.e. functions measuring the similarity between sequences, and demonstrate how it …

Towards an Integrated Model of the Mental Lexicon
… pervasive in many real-world networks, implies processing efficiency and resiliency to node deletion within the system, explaining the need for such a robust network as the mental lexicon. However, each model considered a single word feature at a time, such as semantic or phonological …
