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…

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…

This paper presents a proposal enabling the modelling of manufacturing processes independently of the structure and composition of the industrial plant where these processes will ultimately be implemented. The rationale for the proposal is in the incorporation of knowledge, supported…

El propósito de este trabajo es profundizar en el conocimiento de que disponen los estudiantes de secundaria de los conceptos de trabajo y de calor. Se proponen diferentes actividades a 170 alumnos del último curso de la secundaria postobligatoria (17/18…

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…

Most Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems traditionally use a sequential architecture that represents the classical linguistic levels (lexical-morphological, syntactical, semantic, etc.), but they claim for huge and monolithic modules, that make the backtracking among such modules difficult. By using a…

Purpose – The idea that knowledge management can be a potential source of competitive advantage has gained strength in the last few years. However, a number of business actions are needed to generate an appropriate environment and infrastructure for knowledge…

Expert and novice soccer players (N=140) from five different competition levels (inexperienced, provincial, regional, national and international levels) were examined for differences in procedural knowledge. A video-based test was developed recording four matches of the under-16 Spanish football final play-off.…

One of the main problems in anaphora resolution is how to find the correct antecedent for each anaphoric expression that appears in the discourse. As shown in a previous study (Rico, 1993), the type of knowledge required to select an…
