Websites like Quora, Yahoo! Answers, and Reddit are examples of community question answering (CQA) systems that enable users to ask questions as well as to answer questions. Answer selection is the most challenging task in CQA systems to get the good and relevant answer for the user questions. The shortcomings in the current approaches are lexical gap between text pairs, dependency on external sources, and manual features which lead to lack of generalization ability. These shortcomings are resolved by already proposed work, but they lack generalization, and their performance is not satisfying. Whereas to focus on rich quality answers, attention mechanism can be integrates with neural network. This chapter proposes two models BLSTM and BLSTM with attention mechanism. Attention mechanism aligns question to the answer with the answer's more informative part. So, when it is applied in the model, BLSTM with attention mechanism model surpasses the top approaches.

The article is devoted to research basic aspects of formation, development and implementation of the management Organization of documents and information facilities, forming with their help a comprehensive system of documentary support of Enterprises and Organizations. Implementation of management functions is directly related to information processes. The document is one of the forms of information participation in the communicative process. Information is acquires the necessary qualities and properties: authenticity, evidence, effectiveness and can be stored and resubmitted in space and time in a documented form. Research in the field of records keeping allows to consider the document as a complex information system, which is characterized by many parameters and is in constant development. The method of typing (or stencil) texts is one of the most studied methods unification the content of documents. It received the largest distribution in the unification of organizational and administrative documentation, where the informative part of documents is laid out in the text form. The historical development of the existing system of documentation of management information and documenting the activities of organizations, institutions and enterprises has resulted in creating the whole system of documentation and management of documents, which was formed in Separate activity. Building an effective management system for enterprises, organizations, processes and types of activity is most the value of compliance with certain rules in documenting the activities of enterprises and organizations is enhanced in the modern world and is caused by an increase in attention on it. "The document management" have  includes the following functions and tasks: adoption of policies and standards in the field of document management; Allocation of responsibilities and powers to manage documents; Establishing and distributing procedures and guidelines for managing documents in the organization; Providing a range of services that relate to the management of documents and the use of documents; Design, implementation and administration of specialized document management systems; Integration management of documents in the system and processes of business activity.

Within current visual culture children are continuously exposed to varieties of visual messages accompanied by music which could contribute towards their aesthetic development. However, the interaction between music and image is not always as simple as in animation where music has direct relationship to the visual message to be easily interpreted by the preschool child. Taking a semiotic approach the current paper investigates preschool child’s reception of a more sophisticated interaction between music and visual messages, when the function of music is in mismatch to the visual message. The sample consists of 125 preschool children from Greece, divided into two groups that watched images with, and without, music. Their drawings, comments and explanations in response to our questions were presented as a form of personal interview, which provided rich material for qualitative observations, followed by statistical analysis. It appeared that, during the process of reception and within the specific context of the current investigation, it is the informative part of the visual message, and the child’s experiential relationship with it, that reinforces the receiver’s involvement more than the connotations transmitted by music.

For the analyses, we used the notes to the financial statements of companies with Hungarian headquarters, which are regulated by the Accounting Act and which have information-technology services as their primary activity of the business. The primary objective of our research was to examine the extent to which the enterprises investigated fulfill their obligations determined by the Accounting Act to disclose all needed information in the general and informative parts of the notes to the financial statement. The analysis was performed using text mining, and the results were evaluated with non-parametric statistical methods. Based on the analysis, we can state that the investigated companies presented proportionally less information in the general part of the notes to the financial statements as compared to the informative part. However, even the highest frequency did not exceed 70%. Based on the χ2 test, we can state that the frequency of occurrence of the majority of information sought using text mining significantly differs by company type, and this difference mostly occurred amongst Ltds and Lps, in favor of Ltds. As a conclusion, it can be deduced that the investigated companies do fully not meet the legal requirements for the information provided in the notes to the financial statements. This incompleteness may cut down on the decision-making ability of the companies concerned.

The work is dedicated to the scientific and practical task of the creating an electronic guide to the funds of the Pskov dialect and folklore-ethnographic archive, which is stored in the scientific and educational laboratory of the Pskov State University. The relevance of the topic is due to the extension of the implementation of digital technologies in the work of archives in order to organize, secure storage of the unique information and to facilitate access to the materials for the users. The specificity of the work is that at the core of the guidebook is a specially designed electronic database, which includes the information on a number of basic information fields, due to the requirements for the registration of the field data. A special place is given to the informative part of the archival units such as expeditionary notebooks and audio recordings. As a result, the user can make a request for any of its parameters: the year of the survey, settlements, informants, collectors and by the genre-thematic approach as the most important for the researcher. The experimental model of the developed guide has been tested on the basis of the archival data from the southern historical and cultural area of the Pskov region, bordering with Belarus.

Analysis Concept

We present and evaluate SumUM, a text summarization system that takes a raw technical text as input and produces an indicative informative summary. The indicative part of the summary identifies the topics of the document, and the informative part elaborates on some of these topics according to the reader's interest. SumUM motivates the topics, describes entities, and defines concepts. It is a first step for exploring the issue of dynamic summarization. This is accomplished through a process of shallow syntactic and semantic analysis, concept identification, and text regeneration. Our method was developed through the study of a corpus of abstracts written by professional abstractors. Relying on human judgment, we have evaluated indicativeness, informativeness, and text acceptability of the automatic summaries. The results thus far indicate good performance when compared with other summarization technologies.

Based on analysis of the information contained in the newly discovered Arabic language epitaphs, the article shows the efficiency of the integrated approach in historical and ethnographic researches. This study was carried out by the authors on the example of the village of Dagbash (Akhwakh), the Shamil district of the Republic of Daghestan. The epitaphs of the late XV – early XIX centuries have been studied. They were found on the grave steles of the settlement cemetery and on a stone inserted in the wall of the mosque. The informative part of the epitaphs is analyzed together with the oral traditions, ethnographic observations, as well as data from the Arabic-language written sources. Such an integrated approach made it possible for the authors to date the formation of this rural community, as well as to trace the geography of the migration processes that accompanied this phenomenon. The authors conclude that this community formed before the XV century, as a result of the unification of three more similar settlements located nearby the existing Akhwakh settlement. Later, several more clans (tukhums) formed in Akhwakh, which arose during the sprawl of families of immigrants from other settlements. The clan structure of Akhwakh apparently had formed by the beginning of the XIX century. This approach is quite applicable to studies of similar examples of synoecism in medieval Daghestan. Also, the analysis of epitaphs made it possible to trace the evolution of anthroponomy in the given microregion, as well as its dependence on a change in the religious affiliation of its population. The authors also managed to identify in written sources the original name of the village, which was changed in the 1932 (Akhwakh to Dagbash).

Dense video captioning is an extremely challenging task since an accurate and faithful description of events in a video requires a holistic knowledge of the video contents as well as contextual reasoning of individual events. Most existing approaches handle this problem by first proposing event boundaries from a video and then captioning on a subset of the proposals. Generation of dense temporal annotations and corresponding captions from long videos can be dramatically source consuming. In this paper, we focus on the task of generating a dense description of temporally untrimmed videos and aim to significantly reduce the computational cost by processing fewer frames while maintaining accuracy. Existing video captioning methods sample frames with a predefined frequency over the entire video or use all the frames. Instead, we propose a deep reinforcement-based approach which enables an agent to describe multiple events in a video by watching a portion of the frames. The agent needs to watch more frames when it is processing an informative part of the video, and skip frames when there is redundancy. The agent is trained using actor-critic algorithm, where the actor determines the frames to be watched from a video and the critic assesses the optimality of the decisions taken by the actor. Such an efficient frame selection simplifies the event proposal task considerably. This has the added effect of reducing the occurrence of unwanted proposals. The encoded state representation of the frame selection agent is further utilized for guiding event proposal and caption generation tasks. We also leverage the idea of knowledge distillation to improve the accuracy. We conduct extensive evaluations on ActivityNet captions dataset to validate our method.

In this paper a novel approach is proposed for a particular type of cleft-like construction in Somali, the waxaa sentence, in which wax is a scope marker. As such, it operates a function choice in the alternative set overtly expressed in the embedded clause, which serves as a semantic restrictor. In this line of analysis, wax requires the realization of a bi-clausal, copular construction in which the relativized presupposition (i.e. the restrictor) is merged in subject position, while the focused phrase is the predicate. Indefinite wax is located in the position dedicated to focused constituents in Somali and incorporates the Focus Marker baa, allowing for the realization of an in situ Focus (an option otherwise excluded in this language) and obtaining a specific interpretation for the unfocused part of the sentence. Indeed, based on corpus analysis and interface considerations, evidence is provided that baa and waxaa constructions are by no means interchangeable narrow Focus constructions. Focusing by means of waxaa implies a context in which unfocused information is not properly ‘given’; rather it conveys a type of ‘weakly familiar’ information that contributes somehow to the informative part of the sentence. A discussion about the function and formal properties of internal Topics in Focus-prominent languages concludes the work. Keywords: cleft construction; discourse; (weak) familiarity; (narrow) Focus; presupposition; relative clause; scope marker; specificational (copular) sentence; internal Topic

Image matching is a fundamental step in several computer vision applications where the requirement is fast, accurate, and robust matching of images in the presence of different transformations. Detection and more importantly description of low-level image features proved to be a more appropriate choice for this purpose, such as edges, corners, or blobs. Modern descriptors use binary values to store neighbourhood information of feature points for matching because binary descriptors are fast to compute and match. This paper proposes a descriptor called Fast Angular Binary (FAB) descriptor that illustrates the neighbourhood of a corner point using a binary vector. It is different from conventional descriptors because of selecting only the useful neighbourhood of corner point instead of the whole circular area of specific radius. The descriptor uses the angle of corner points to reduce the search space and increase the probability of finding an accurate match using binary descriptor. Experiments show that FAB descriptor’s performance is good, but the calculation and matching time is significantly less than BRIEF, the best known binary descriptor, and AMIE, a descriptor that uses entropy and average intensities of informative part of a corner point for the description.
