  Automated learning of decision rules for text categorization
Apté C., Damerau F., Weiss S. ACM Transactions on Information Systems 12(3): 233-251, 1994.  Type: Article

Can rules for document classification be induced from a training set of manually classified documents, enabling new documents to be classified automatically? This question is important because of the time and skill required for manual ...

  A system for discovering relationships by feature extraction from text databases
Conrad J., Utt M.  Research and development in information retrieval (, Dublin, Ireland, 2701994.  Type: Proceedings

Extracting relevant information from large document databases is an important and difficult problem, and we are likely to see a host of domain-specific techniques for spotting different kinds of information to use for indexing. This pa...

  Specifying Ada Server Tasks with Executable Formal Grammars
Hemmendinger D. IEEE Transactions on Software Engineering 16(7): 741-754, 1990.  Type: Article

Hemmendinger promotes the use of formal grammars to specify the synchronization of concurrent processes. He shows how such specifications can be translated automatically into server tasks in Ada and how they can be converted to Prolog ...
