Information systems for the conservation and fruition of cultura heritage. The church of Santa Trinità di Delia

2016

Lo studio descrive il processo di conoscenza avviato su uno degli esempi monumentali più rappresentativi dell’architettura normanna della prima metà del XII sec. in Sicilia: la chiesa della Trinità di Delia a Castelvetrano (TP). Le fasi del rilievo e della rappresentazione 3D degli elementi costruttivi e decorativi seguono un approccio parametrico costituendo un sistema informativo implementabile di supporto per successivi interventi di restauro conservativo della struttura. Il workflow è struturato in modo tale da impiegare tecnologie hardware / software low-cost, descrivendo metodiche procedurali di elaborazione dati trasferibili all’attività professionale. The study describes the knowled…

An Emphatic Humanoid Robot with Emotional Latent Semantic Behavior

2008

In this paper we propose an Entertainment Humanoid Robot model based on Latent Semantic Analysis, that tries to exhibit an emotional behavior in the interaction with human. Latent Semantic Analysis (LSA), based on vector space allows the coding of the words semantics by specific statistical computations applied to a large corpus of text. We illustrate how the creation and the use of this emotional conceptual space can provide a framework upon which to build “Latent Semantic Behavior” because it simulates the emotionalassociative capabilities of human beings. This approach integrates traditional knowledge representation with intuitive capabilities provided by geometric and sub-symbolic infor…

On Formalizing Logical Modalities

2021

This paper is in the scope of the philosophy of modal logic; more precisely, it concerns the semantics of modal logic, when the modal elements are interpreted as logical modalities. Most authors have thought that the logic for logical modality—that is, the one to be used to formalize the notion of logical truth (and other related notions)—is to be found among logical systems in which modalities are allowed to be iterated. This has raised the problem of the adequacy, to that formalization purpose, of some modal schemes, such as S4 and S5 . It has been argued that the acceptance of S5 leads to non-normal modal systems, in which the uniform substitution rule fails. The thesis supported in this…

CHE SENSO HA? POLISEMIA E ATTIVITA' DI LINGUAGGIO

2012

I fenomeni di polisemia lessicale costituiscono un ingrediente essenziale dell'attività umana di linguaggio. Semiotici, linguisti e studiosi di scienze cognitive esaminano questi fenomeni da prospettive differenti. I saggi raccolti in questo volume provano a tener conto di alcuni importanti risultati derivanti dall'analisi di tali prospettive. L'immagine complessiva che emerge è di straordinaria ricchezza e di grande impatto. Non vi è aspetto dell'attività umana di linguaggio che non possa essere in qualche modo ripensato a a partire dai fenomeni di polisemia lessicale. Il libro, attraverso un confronto sistematico delle principali strategie impiegate nello studio di tali fenomeni prova ad …

Marino Rosanna (2014). Claude Moussy, La polysémie en latin, Paris, PUPS 2010, pp. 320

2014

Nel sistema semantico della lingua latina i processi di significazione sono organizzati dall'autore secondo modelli di profondità nei quali gli elementi di tipo logico-semantico si convertono in piani semantico-sintattici per poi passare alla semiosi in cui ogni parola ha una precisa funzione di segno e di significazione di idee.

Perspectives on Pragmatics and Philosophy

2013

This volume provides insight into linguistic pragmatics from the perspective of linguists who have been influenced by philosophy. Theory of Mind and perspectives on point of view are presented along with other topics including: semantics vs. semiotics, clinical pragmatics, explicatures, cancellability of explicatures, interactive language use, reference, common ground, presupposition, definiteness, logophoricity and point of view in connection with pragmatic inference, pragmemes and language games, pragmatics and artificial languages, the mechanism of the form/content correlation from a pragmatic point of view, amongst other issues relating to language use. Relevance Theory is introduced as…

Therapeutic activities and the assimilation model: A preliminary exploratory study on the Insight stage

2014

The assimilation model describes the process of change assuming that the self is enriched when there is a dialogue between nondominant voices or problematic experiences and the dominant voices. This dialogue is best seen in the Insight stage. The aim of this paper is to study the Insight stage during the assimilation process in relation to the main therapeutic activities performed by the therapist. All the Insights from the assimilation process of a patient, Maria, were analysed. In assimilation terms, Maria could be described through the nondominant voices of “dizziness,” “tiredness,” and “inability to cope with daily demands,” and through the dominant voices of “control,” “overcome and so…

Sur la francisation d’un toponyme écossais : l’« Argail » de Charles Nodier

2011

International audience; This study opposes, on the one hand, the concept exposed by linguist and theoretician Charles Nodier (1780-1844) in his Elementary Notions in Linguistics (1834) referring to the inalterable spelling of proper nouns, and, on the other hand, his practice as a storyteller and creator in his Trilby (1822). We will also consider answering the question of the gallicization of the toponym "Argyle" (allusion to the lake region in Scotland), spelled "Argail" by Nodier in his tale, contrary to all expectations. "Argail" , beyond the mere process of transliteration and trompe-l’oeil justifications revealed by Nodier himself in the preface of his book, opens up to subtle manipul…

An introduction to the cognitive therapy of evaluation-[1]

1991

Abstract This paper introduces a new cognitive therapy which is evolving from the theoretical background of general semantics theory. This therapy is being tested since 1985 with several samples, the results being favorable and promising. Nevertheless, only its theoretical rational and clinical background will be introduced. Subsequently, the cognitive therapy of evaluation will be defined, and its main therapeutic ingredients described; finally, its differences and similarities with current cognitive therapies will be highlighted.
