Abstract. Class hierarchies, though theoretically reusable, have generally not seen much practical reuse in applications, due in part to the inflexibility of the inheritance relat...
A language is defined by closure under safe iteration and under a new form of safe diagonalization that, unlike other forms of diagonalization used in literature to define sub-recu...
Polymorphism and class hierarchies are key to increasing the extensibility of an object-oriented program but also raise challenges for program comprehension. Despite many advances...
A seed-based framework for textual information extraction allows for weakly supervised acquisition of open-domain class attributes over conceptual hierarchies, from a combination ...
Building and maintaining the class hierarchy has been recognized as an important but one of the most difficult activities of object-oriented design. Concept (or Galois) lattices a...
