Measuring Meaning
2021
This study will present a tool designed for meaning extraction with monoclausal sentences in Italian. Its main features will be illustrated with instances of the Italian causative clause type featuring the verb fare ‘make’ (e.g. Egli fa piangere il bambino ‘He makes the child cry’), a construction which invariably embeds a clause (e.g.Il bambino piange ‘The child cries’) with which it establishes an entailment relationship. The tool automatically accomplishes the following tasks: it answers relevantwh- questions (e.g. Who cries? Who makes someone cry?) and detects the entailment. Concurrent with this presentation, this study will also encourage a reflection on the research currently being c…
A Context Aware Learning Application for Communities of Service Technicians
2016
The gathering of knowledge and competences needed to accomplish work related tasks is carried out in several ways. It can be done, planned in the long term to brace oneself for a new area of responsibility or in the short term to prepare for a concrete forthcoming task or while working on a task. The latter two happen quite often at the workplace. In this paper, we present a context aware mobile application supporting workplace learning of service technicians working at different locations including customer service. The originality of the presented application lies in the combination of the question a answering concept with the microlearning concept and in the context awareness of the appl…
Palermo si cura. Pratiche culturali di mutuo soccorso come risposta alle fragilità della città (post)pandemica
2023
In un quadro di riferimento in cui la crisi è globalizzata ma diseguale e in mancanza di un sistema di welfare capace di rispondere alle urgenze dei contesti e dei gruppi sociali più marginalizzati, una risposta ai nuovi bisogni sociali ed individuali è stata offerta da reti solidali e da pratiche di mobilitazione dal basso che svolgono un ruolo di agency territoriale, spesso indipendentemente o in assenza di Istituzioni. Nel contesto palermitano un impegno agito da una pluralità di soggetti culturali già attivi sul territorio, riuniti in un’assemblea pubblica (Palermo si cura), durante il periodo del primo lockdown hanno dato vita ad azioni di mutuo soccorso per rispondere all’emergenza ec…
Question Answering with BERT: designing a 3D virtual avatar for Cultural Heritage exploration
2022
Recent technological developments are changing how people experience physical and virtual environments. Technologies like Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR), today, are impacting daily life and are being used in various domains including Cultural Heritage. Applying intelligence to applications using these technologies, through AI and Deep Learning can provide a more immersive user experience. In this paper, we propose the design of a system that realize an avatar with question-answering capabilities, for the specific purpose of giving help in immersive navigation of cultural heritage sites. It is based on a BERT model tailored to the Italian language and wi…
Studio numerico-sperimentale sulla resistenza a fatica di sistemi di cementazione per inlay in composito
2009
Nel lavoro è valutata la resistenza a fatica di tre diversi tipi di cementazione per inlay in composito utilizzati in ambito odontoiatrico per il restauro dei denti anteriori e posteriori. Il comportamento meccanico dei diversi sistemi di cementazione è stato ricavato sperimentalmente mediante prove di fatica in controllo di carico e riprodotto numericamente mediante simulazioni numeriche agli elementi finiti (FEM). Le diverse simulazioni hanno permesso di prevedere lo stato tensionale e l’evoluzione di una delaminazione all’interfaccia bi-materiale.
Studio numerico di sistemi di cementazione per inlay in composito.
2009
Nel lavoro è condotto uno studio numerico su diverse tipologie di cementazione per inlay in composito utilizzate in ambito odontoiatrico per il restauro dei denti anteriori e posteriori. Il comportamento meccanico dei diversi sistemi di cementazione è stato riprodotto numericamente mediante simulazioni FEM: infatti, la moderna tecnica odontoiatrica fa uso dei software agli elementi finiti per l’elevata versatilità ed economicità nello studio di soluzioni sempre diverse. Le simulazioni hanno permesso di prevedere lo stato tensionale e l’evoluzione di una delaminazione creata all’interfaccia bi-materiale.
QuASIt: A Cognitive Inspired Approach to Question Answering for the Italian Language
2016
In this paper we present QuASIt, a Question Answering System for the Italian language, and the underlying cognitive architecture. The term cognitive is meant in the procedural semantics perspective, which states that the interpretation and/or production of a sentence requires the execution of some cognitive processes over both a perceptually grounded model of the world, and a linguistic knowledge acquired previously. We attempted to model these cognitive processes with the aim to make an artificial agent able both to understand and produce natural language sentences. The agent runs these processes on its inner domain representation using the linguistic knowledge also. In this sense, QuASIt …
Named Entity Recognition and Linking in Tweets Based on Linguistic Similarity
2017
This work proposes a novel approach in Named Entity rEcognition and Linking (NEEL) in tweets, applying the same strategy already presented for Question Answering (QA) by the same authors. The previous work describes a rule-based and ontology-based system that attempts to retrieve the correct answer to a query from the DBPedia ontology through a similarity measure between the query and the ontology labels. In this paper, a tweet is interpreted as a query for the QA system: both the text and the thread of a tweet are a sequence of statements that have been linked to the ontology. Provided that tweets make extensive use of informal language, the similarity measure and the underlying processes …
An Approach to Enhance Chatbot Semantic Power and Maintainability: Experiences within the FRASI Project
2012
The paper illustrates the implementation and semantic enhancement of a domain-oriented Question-Answering system based on a pattern-matching chat bot technology, developed within an industrial project, named FRASI. The main difficulty in building a KB for a chat bot is to handwrite all possible question-answer pairs that constitute the KB. The proposed approach simplifies the chat bot realization thanks to two solutions. The first one uses an ontology, which is exploited in a twofold manner: to construct dynamic answers as a result of an inference process about the domain, and to automatically populate, off-line, the chat bot KB with sentences that can be derived from the ontology, describi…
