The exponential increase of subjective, user-generated content since the birth of the Social Web, has led to the necessity of developing automatic text processing systems able to extract, process and present relevant knowledge. In this paper, we tackle the Opinion…

Los bosques secos neotropicales son reconocidos como uno de los ecosistemas más amenazados del mundo. La acelerada pérdida de cobertura vegetal de estos bosques ha ocasionado que, en la actualidad, se encuentren restringidos a una pequeña fracción de su área…

La gestión de los depredadores generalistas en España se basa en el control directo de sus poblaciones, siendo una práctica ampliamente extendida dentro del ámbito cinegético que genera gran controversia entre diferentes grupos sociales. A pesar de esto, los esfuerzos…

Personalization of web sites has become an important issue in web modeling methods. Many of these methods use similar approaches to specify personalization. However even with similar (personalization) requirements the resulting implementations differ. The consequence is that we cannot reuse…

The ability of building robust semantic space representations of environments is crucial for the development of truly autonomous robots. This task, inherently connected with cognition, is traditionally achieved by training the robot with a supervised learning phase. We argue that…

In the present paper I describe the conceptual level of representation of a database, currently in development, which aims at fulfilling the Functional-Lexematic model. I will concentrate on the semantic component, as it is central for the theory of Functional…

Data mining is at the core of the knowledge discovery process. However, an initial preprocessing step is crucial for assuring reliable results within this process. Preprocessing of data is a time-consuming and non-trivial task since data quality issues should be…

In this paper, a supervised learning system of word sense disambiguation is presented. It is based on conditional maximum entropy models. This system acquires the linguistic knowledge from an annotated corpus and this knowledge is represented in the form of…

El diseño de tareas en los programas de formación de maestros se vincula al desarrollo del conocimiento necesario para realizar diferentes tareas profesionales- organizar el contenido matemático, interpretar el aprendizaje, gestionar la enseñanza. Se ejemplifica esta perspectiva en el caso…

The underlying assumption of this study is the understanding of a specialized term as a summary of disciplinary knowledge, formalized at a textual level in the contextual relations which structure disciplinary lexical knowledge and are therefore essential for the successful…
