  <description><![CDATA[AI is beginning to make some dents in the "knowledge acquisition bottleneck", the problem of acquiring large amounts of general world knowledge to support language understanding and commonsense reasoning. Two text-based approaches to the problem are (1) to abstract such knowledge from patterns of predication and modification in miscellaneous texts, and (2) to derive such knowledge by direct interpretation of general statements in ordinary language, such as are found in lexicons and resources ...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Many intelligent agents need knowledge and information to support
their reasoning and problem solving. The World Wide Web is a vast,
open, accessible and free source of knowledge, but virtually all of it
is encoded as natural language text -- a form difficult for most
agents to directly understand.  We describe initial work on adapting a
mature language understanding agent to process Web text and publish
its output in the Semantic Web language OWL.  This approach adds
knowledge on the ...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Ontological Semantics (OntoSem) is the theory of meaning in natural language text. It deals with extracting and representing meaning and is supported by a 'constructed world model' which is a rich Ontology and a Fact Repository. The project OntoSem2OWL is investigating the feasibility of developing a system to translate ontologies and data between OntoSem and OWL.

The talk would summarize some of the preliminary results of mapping OntoSem to OWL. It also describes some of the functional sp...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Conversational Systems (CSys) represent practical and tangible outcomes of advances in NLP and AI. CSys see continuous improvements through unsupervised training of large language models (LLMs) on a humongous amount of generic training data. However, when these CSys are suggested for use in domains like Mental Health, they fail to match the acceptable standards of clinical care, such as the clinical process in Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). The talk will present Knowledge-infused Learn...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Language understanding involves processing text with both the grammatical and common-sense contexts of the text fragments. The text “I went to the grocery store and brought home a car” requires both the grammatical context (syntactic) and common-sense context (semantic) to capture the oddity in the sentence. Contextualized text representations learned by Language Models (LMs) are expected to capture a variety of syntactic and semantic contexts from large amounts of training data corpora. ...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Domain-specific language understanding requires integrating multiple pieces of relevant contextual information. For example, we see both suicide and depression-related behavior (multiple contexts) in the text ``I have a gun and feel pretty bad about my life, and it wouldn't be the worst thing if I didn't wake up tomorrow''. Domain specificity in self-attention architectures is handled by fine-tuning on excerpts from relevant domain-specific resources (datasets and external knowledge - medical...]]></description>

Consequently, the act of narrative delivery itself has shifted from simply ...]]></description>

media posts or discussion forums. The language understanding task is
challenging and current extraction systems introduce many kinds of errors.

However, a common thread is that an organized representation of knowledge that can be queried and evolved is a core component of many...]]></description>
