Article
The present research examined the role of phonological and orthographic properties of cues in mediating the retrieval of words from the mental lexicon. The task required subjects to resolve fragmented words wh...
Article
Prior research has suggested that priming on perceptual implicit tests is insensitive to changes in stimulus size and reflection. The present experiments were performed to investigate whether size and reflecti...
Article
Explicit memory tests such as recognition typically access semantic, modality-independent representations, while perceptual implicit memory tests typically access presemantic, modality-specific representations...
Article
Visual identification of 3-D objects depends on representations that are invariant across changes in size and left-right orientation. We examined whether this finding reflects the unique demands of processing ...
Article
Four experiments examined whether or not exposure to two views (A and B) of a novel object improves generalization to a third view (C) through view combination on tasks that required symmetry or recognition me...
Article
A novel event-based conceptual implicit memory test was designed to tap the development of new associations between objects and ad hoc categories. At study, participants were presented with a plausible story t...
Article
Reports on the effects of dividing attention at study on subsequent perceptual priming suggest that perceptual priming is generally unaffected by attentional manipulations as long as word identity is processed...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Reasoning on OWL ontologies is known to be intractable in the worst-case, which is a serious problem because in practice, most OWL ontologies have large Aboxes, i.e., numerous assertions about individuals and ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
This paper describes a large case study that explores the applicability of ontology reasoning to problems in the medical domain. We investigate whether it is possible to use such reasoning to automate common c...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The approach of using ontology reasoning to cleanse the output of information extraction tools was first articulated in SemantiClean. A limiting factor in applying this approach has been that ontology reasonin...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Within the health care and life sciences (HCLS) domain, a plethora of phenomena exists that range across the whole “vertical scale” of biomedicine. To accurately research and describe those phenomena, a tremen...
Chapter
Reasoning with large amounts of data together with ontological knowledge is becoming a pertinent issue. In this chapter, we will give an overviewof wellknown ontology repositories, including native stores and ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Grounded conjunctive query answering over OWL-DL ontologies is intractable in the worst case, but we present novel techniques which allow for efficient querying of large expressive knowledge bases in secondary...
Chapter and Conference Paper
A common vocabulary is vital to smooth business operation, yet codifying and maintaining an enterprise vocabulary is an arduous, manual task. We describe a process to automatically extract a domain specific vo...
Chapter and Conference Paper
A key problem in ontology alignment is that different ontological features (e.g., lexical, structural or semantic) vary widely in their importance for different ontology comparisons. In this paper, we present a s...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Ontology alignment is an important problem for the linked data web, as more and more ontologies and ontology instances get published for specific domains such as government and healthcare. A number of (semi-)a...
Chapter and Conference Paper
In this paper, we describe a mechanism for ontology alignment using instance based matching of types (or classes). Instance-based matching is known to be a useful technique for matching ontologies that have di...
Chapter and Conference Paper
With many disparate information systems distributed among social and medical care facilities, achieving an integrated social and medical view of people is a huge challenge. We propose a system based on semanti...
Chapter and Conference Paper
In graph databases, a given graph query can be executed in a large variety of semantically equivalent ways. Each such execution plan produces the same results, but at different computation costs. The query pla...
