Natural language processing (NLP) techniques have transformed a number of tasks in the modern age of information explosion where millions of gigabytes of data are generated every day. Despite achieving state-of-the-art performance in high-resource languages, current techniques struggle with processing under-resourced languages which are characterized by data scarcity, linguistic diversity, computational limitations, ambiguity of language…

An enduring vision of Artificial Intelligence is to build robots that can recognize and learn the visual world and who can speak about it in natural language. Automatic image description generation is a demanding problem in Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing. The applications of image description generation systems are in biomedicine, military, commerce, digital…

Interpreting data for solving information needs demands an understanding of the semantics of row data. In this paper, an ontology-driven management of data of the presence of radon gas in soil is presented. The main contribution of this research relies on the formal definition of the semantic of the presence of radon in the dimensions…

The paper addresses speeding up meetings in a networked environment during rescue works in a transport emergency. Several groups of representatives of various services and observers participate in those meetings. The number of wrong decisions tends to increase because remote participants cannot understand each other quickly. First, the meetings must be efficiently held to avoid…

Even though mobile technologies are increasingly used to enable communications between providers and receivers of healthcare services, there remain severity challenges owing to the use of various indigenous languages in many Africa countries. Some of the challenges get worst in a countries like South Africa where there are eleven official languages. As a result, interpreters…

This work deals with the issue of understanding a user’s behaviour as this is expressed via a gamified application. The notion of ontologies and the association of concepts in relevance to decisions that have to be made is used. The current work introduces a new process-based approach, based on collected large log files and associations…

Technological tools such as Semantic Web and ontologies have contributed immensely to the reduction of most managerial complexities on daily basis. However, most resolved complexities are solely dependent on the emerging issues which are not general enough to accommodate some specific domain challenges. Temporal scheduling complexities occur in several domains including timetabling, but inter-departmental courses…
