Our aim was to gather information on the potential differences in meanings that the same words might take on when used in Modern Standard Arabic w.r.t. their usage in the Quran. To do so we used the Penn Arabic Treebank as a...
This paper is a contribution to the study of a special kind of syllogisms with intermediate quantifiers. We stem from our previous papers where a formal theory of the intermediate quantifiers was introduced. Besides other results, we syntactically proved validity of 105 basic syllogisms with them. We also demonstrated how our theory works in the semantic interpretation. In this paper, we will address...
The concept of bipolar linguistic summaries of data, introduced by Dziedzic, Zadrożny and Kacprzyk [1], is further developed. These summaries are meant as an extension of the “classical” linguistic summarization [2], [3], a human-consistent data mining technique, making it possible to express more complex patterns present in data. The focus of the paper is to provide a deeper insight into the very...

Using these standards has become very complicated since they have been developed by independent communities. The content and context are usually described using several metadata standards.

Users who want to participate need to move from a down-load first to a cyberinfrastructure paradigm, thus increasing their dependency on the seamless operation of all components in the Internet. Such a scenario...
