Abstract. In this paper we introduce a multi-stage decision making procedure where decision makers sort the alternatives by means of a fixed set of linguistic categories, each one...
How to assign appropriate weights to terms is one of the critical issues in information retrieval. Many term weighting schemes are unsupervised. They are either based on the empir...
We introduce a new kind of tree automaton, a dependency tree automaton, that is suitable for deciding properties of classes of terms with binding. Two kinds of such automaton are d...
