La personalización de entornos ha suscitado un gran interés desde el punto de vista de los métodos de modelado conceptual de aplicaciones web. Ello es debido al efecto que tienen las políticas de personalización sobre todo el ciclo de desarrollo…

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…

Geographic knowledge discovery (GKD) is the process of extracting information and knowledge from massive georeferenced databases. Usually the process is accomplished by two different systems, the Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and the data mining engines. However, the development of those…

This paper evaluates the different tasks carried out in the translation of pronominal anaphora in a machine translation (MT) system. The MT interlingua approach named AGIR (Anaphora Generation with an Interlingua Representation) improves upon other proposals presented to date because…

The consideration of personalization politics in the context of any web application modelling method obliges to the revision of its different modelling activities, which must be adapted to take into account the information regarding the user (usually gathered in a…

Conceptual Modelling approaches for the web need extensions to specify dynamic personalization properties in order to design more powerful web applications. Current approaches provide techniques to support dynamic personalization, usually focused on implementation details. This article presents an extension of…

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…

Las aproximaciones de Modelado Conceptual para la web necesitan extensiones para especificar propiedades de personalización dinámica para diseñar aplicaciones web más potentes. Las propuestas actuales proveen técnicas para soportar personalización dinámica, usualmente enfocadas en detalles de implementación. Este artículo presenta…

This thesis is focused on temporal information processing, which is a task framed in the field of natural language processing. The aim of this task is to obtain the temporal location and ordering of the events expressed in text or…

La variante translingüe de la detección de plagio automática trata de detectar plagio entre documentos en diferentes idiomas. En los últimos años se han propuesto una serie de aproximaciones que hacen uso de tesauros, modelos de alineamiento o diccionarios estadísticos…
