Ambiguous notation is a powerful tool developed to deal with the complexity of mathematics without sacrificing clarity or conciseness. In the mechanized parsing of ambiguous terms, a disambiguation algorithm can be used to provide the system with the intelligence necess...

It has been recognized that many modern buildings undergo rapid deterioration, especially in areas with high air pollutant concentrations. It is assumed that the deposition of gaseous multipollutants and aerosols plays a major role in causing the deterioration of monume...

Building Information Modeling is considered by the scientific literature as an emerging trend in the architectural documentation scenario, as it is basically a digital representation of physical and functional features of facilities, serving as a shared knowledge resour...

We propose a multi-task deep-learning approach for estimating the check-worthiness of claims in political debates. Given a political debate, such as the 2016 US Presidential and Vice-Presidential ones, the task is to predict which statements in the debate should be prio...

Abstract. In recent years, the GeCo Laboratory has undertaken numerous projects to digitalize vast and complex buildings; the specific nature of the different projects has resulted in a case-by-case approach, each time working on past experiences and updating not only t...

PAISA' is a Creative Commons licensed, large web corpus of contemporary Italian. We describe the design, harvesting, and processing steps involved in its creation.

Malpighi’s perception of tightly packed glands in the cerebral cortex is usually considered to be a major mistake by him, and caused the widespread criticism of microscopy and its replacement by injection technique. The eclipse of the microscope ensued until it was redi...

Background and aim of the paper. Urban regeneration is a wide research area that mainly focused on how to innovate degraded districts and abandoned modern buildings to contribute to city development. However, urban regeneration also applies to historical cities, rich in...

Abstract The science of complex systems can provide not only scientist, but also professionals, policy-makers and citizens, with thinking resources to interpret and understand most of the modern global challenges. In this field, the widespread use of computational simul...

Perceptual prominence is an important indicator of a word’s and syllable’s lexical, syntactic, semantic and pragmatic status in a discourse. Its automatic annotation would be a valuable enrichment of large databases used in unit selection speech synthesis and speech rec...
