Computational Processing of the Portuguese Language
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Computational Processing of the Portuguese Language, PROPOR 2006. The 20 revised full papers and 17 revised short papers presented here are organized in topical sections on automatic summarization, resources, translation, named entity recognition, tools and frameworks, systems and models, information extraction, speech processing, lexicon, morpho-syntactic studies, and Web, corpus and evaluation.
String Processing and Information Retrieval
This volume of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series provides a c- prehensive, state-of-the-art survey of recent advances in string processing and information retrieval. It includes invited and research papers presented at the 10th International Symposium on String Processing and Information Retrieval, SPIRE 2003, held in Manaus, Brazil. SPIRE 2003 received 54 full submissions from 17 countries, namely: - gentina(2), Australia(2), Brazil(9),Canada(1),Chile (4),Colombia(2),Czech Republic (1), Finland (10), France (1), Japan (2), Korea (5), Malaysia (1), P- tugal (2), Spain (6), Turkey (1), UK (1), USA (4) – the numbers in parentheses indicate the number of submissions from that count...
Computational Processing of the Portuguese Language
The refereed proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Computational Processing of the Portuguese Language, PROPOR 2003, held in Faro, Portugal, in June 2003. The 24 revised full papers and 17 revised short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 64 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on speech analysis and recognition; speech synthesis; pragmatics, discourse, semantics, syntax, and the lexicon; tools, resources, and applications; dialogue systems; summarization and information extraction; and evaluation.
Introduction to the Semiotics of the Text
This books aims to demonstrate how semiotic models of textual analysis can be used to study any social reality or cultural process. In addition, it shows how semiotic models work by using examples from everyday life and social praxis, communicative processes and modes of consumption, online interactions and cross-media procedures, political experiences and scientific universes.
New Language Technologies and Linguistic Research
This book is a collection of the papers presented and discussed at the 11th Corpus Linguistics Symposium (ELC 2012), held at the Instituto de Ciências Matemáticas e de Computação (Institute of Mathematics and Computer Science) of the University of São Paulo, at São Carlos, Brazil. The sessions addressed the following six topics: Corpus Linguistics and Language Description; Translation, Terminology and Corpora; Spoken Language and Corpora; Natural Language Processing and Corpora; Corpus Annotation; and Corpora and Multiple Documents. These unique studies will inspire readers with an interest in Linguistics, and will provide motivation for conducting further research in the interdisciplinary area of Language Technologies and Linguistic Research.
Magazines and Modernity in Brazil
Although published as part of a series on Brazilian studies, central to this collection are not the concepts of nation or nationhood but those of transnational networks and cross-cultural exchanges. The concept of nation is of limited value to account for the periodical print culture as a global phenomenon marked by transnational movements such as those involving capital flows, commodities, people, ideas and editorial models. In this vein, what these chapters explore is not so much the concept of influence – which often plays a central role in Eurocentric analyses – but those of circulation and interaction. The notion of “circulation” here emphasised is more appropriate to the study of cultural exchanges, focusing on the movements of and engagements with ideas and concepts, as well as the appropriated models and the people involved in the publication and consumption of magazines. What the reader will find in these essays are analysis of numerous processes of transnational cultural negotiations.
Practical Reasoning
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Formal and Applied Practical Reasoning, FAPR '96, held in Bonn, Germany, in June 1996. The 51 revised full papers included in the book together with eight posters were carefully selected for presentation at the conference. The book addresses current aspects of the highly interdisciplinary area of practical reasoning in artificial intelligence, philosophy, psychology, linguistics, software engineering, intelligent systems, and industrial applications. Among the topics addressed are user modeling, belief, legal reasoning, argumentation, dialogue logic, default reasoning, analogy, metareasoning, temporal and procedural reasoning, and many others.
CryptoSchool
This book offers an introduction to cryptology, the science that makes secure communications possible, and addresses its two complementary aspects: cryptography—--the art of making secure building blocks—--and cryptanalysis—--the art of breaking them. The text describes some of the most important systems in detail, including AES, RSA, group-based and lattice-based cryptography, signatures, hash functions, random generation, and more, providing detailed underpinnings for most of them. With regard to cryptanalysis, it presents a number of basic tools such as the differential and linear methods and lattice attacks. This text, based on lecture notes from the author’s many courses on the ...
The value of life
Not everybody can find a meaning for life in the middle of a moment of unimaginable pain. But Roseli Tardelli did. In the death of her HIV-infected brother, Sérgio, she found a cause worth fighting for. But a glance at Agência AIDS suffices to see all the work that has been done to bring more rights of the HIV-infected and promote information about AIDS to the population. The path is tortuous, the hurdles are enormous and countless, but Roseli and her team of collaborators manage to channel such powerful energy that barriers are crossed nearly every day. With this publication, Senac São Paulo presents more than a story about a fight, it also brings up relevant discussions and information – through the glossary and the timeline – for the reader to reflect upon the journey of the disease in Brazil and in the world and, at the same time, it pays tribute to the people who fight for a more humane treatment of those infected with HIV.
