Abstract Search engines, with Google at the top, have many remarkable capabilities. But what is not among them is the deduction capability—the capability to synthesize an answer ...
We describe improvements to the use of semantic lexicons by a state-of-the-art query interpretation system powering a major search engine. We successfully compute concept label im...
We present a general method to improve computation of answer sets by analyzing structural properties of normal logic programs. Therefore we use labeled directed graphs associated t...
