DIRECT NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF MOTION OF FERROMAGNETIC PARTICLES IN MAGNETORHEOLOGICAL SUSPENSION
ABSTRACT Results simulation of magnetorheological suspension at particle level are reported. The present approach accounts for a better description of hydrodynamic interaction between close spheres. Development of lamellar structures similar to those obtained by other researchers in Poiseuille flow is observed in shear flow. Studies of single layer lamellar structures reveal presence of short chains and more complex aggregates.
Pini Language and PiniTree Ontology Editor: Annotation and Verbalisation for Atomised Journalism
We present a new ontology language Pini and the PiniTree ontology editor supporting it. Despite Pini language bearing lot of similarities with RDF, UML class diagrams, Property Graphs and their frontends like Google Knowledge Graph and Protege, it is a more expressive language enabling FrameNet-style natural language annotation for Atomised journalism use case.
Domain Expert Platform for Goal-Oriented Dialog Collection
Today, most dialogue systems are fully or partly built using neural network architectures. A crucial prerequisite for the creation of a goal-oriented neural network dialogue system is a dataset that represents typical dialogue scenarios and includes various semantic annotations, e.g. intents, slots and dialogue actions, that are necessary for training a particular neural network architecture. In this demonstration paper, we present an easy to use interface and its back-end which is oriented to domain experts for the collection of goal-oriented dialogue samples. The platform not only allows to collect or write sample dialogues in a structured way, but also provides a means for simple annotat…
Rigotrio At Semeval-2017 Task 9: Combining Machine Learning And Grammar Engineering For Amr Parsing And Generation
By addressing both text-to-AMR parsing and AMR-to-text generation, SemEval-2017 Task 9 established AMR as a powerful semantic interlingua. We strengthen the interlingual aspect of AMR by applying the multilingual Grammatical Framework (GF) for AMR-to-text generation. Our current rule-based GF approach completely covered only 12.3% of the test AMRs, therefore we combined it with state-of-the-art JAMR Generator to see if the combination increases or decreases the overall performance. The combined system achieved the automatic BLEU score of 18.82 and the human Trueskill score of 107.2, to be compared to the plain JAMR Generator results. As for AMR parsing, we added NER extensions to our SemEva…
RIGA at SemEval-2016 Task 8: Impact of Smatch Extensions and Character-Level Neural Translation on AMR Parsing Accuracy
Two extensions to the AMR smatch scoring script are presented. The first extension com-bines the smatch scoring script with the C6.0 rule-based classifier to produce a human-readable report on the error patterns frequency observed in the scored AMR graphs. This first extension results in 4% gain over the state-of-art CAMR baseline parser by adding to it a manually crafted wrapper fixing the identified CAMR parser errors. The second extension combines a per-sentence smatch with an en-semble method for selecting the best AMR graph among the set of AMR graphs for the same sentence. This second modification au-tomatically yields further 0.4% gain when ap-plied to outputs of two nondeterministic…
Direct numerical simulation of MR suspension: The role of viscous and magnetic interactions between particles
A numerical method is developed with aim to simulate the magnetorheological (MR) suspension taking into account realistic magnetic forces. The MR suspension is described by spherical particles with nonlinear magnetic properties suspended in a shear flow. Inertia effects, Brownian motion and buoyancy forces are neglected. The hydrodynamic interaction between close particles is taken into account approximately. Results of some test simulations are presented.
RDF* Graph Database as Interlingua for the TextWorld Challenge
This paper briefly describes the top-scoring submission to the First TextWorld Problems: A Reinforcement and Language Learning Challenge. To alleviate the partial observability problem, characteristic to the TextWorld games, we split the Agent into two independent components: Observer and Actor, communicating only via the Interlingua of the RDF* graph database. The RDF* graph database serves as the “world model” memory incrementally updated by the Observer via FrameNet informed Natural Language Understanding techniques and is used by the Actor for the efficient exploration and planning of the game Action sequences. We find that the deep-learning approach works best for the Observer componen…
The SUMMA Platform: A Scalable Infrastructure for Multi-lingual Multi-media Monitoring
The open-source SUMMA Platform is a highly scalable distributed architecture for monitoring a large number of media broadcasts in parallel, with a lag behind actual broadcast time of at most a few minutes. The Platform offers a fully automated media ingestion pipeline capable of recording live broadcasts, detection and transcription of spoken content, translation of all text (original or transcribed) into English, recognition and linking of Named Entities, topic detection, clustering and crosslingual multi-document summarization of related media items, and last but not least, extraction and storage of factual claims in these news items. Browser-based graphical user interfaces provide humans…
Riga: from FrameNet to Semantic Frames with C6.0 Rules
For the purposes of SemEval-2015 Task-18 on the semantic dependency parsing we combined the best-performing closed track approach from the SemEval-2014 competition with state-of-the-art techniques for FrameNet semantic parsing. In the closed track our system ranked third for the semantic graph accuracy and first for exact labeled match of complete semantic graphs. These results can be attributed to the high accuracy of the C6.0 rule-based sense labeler adapted from the FrameNet parser. To handle large SemEval training data the C6.0 algorithm was extended to provide multi-class classification and to use fast greedy search without significant accuracy loss compared to exhaustive search. A met…
