L'analogie dans la démarche scientifique

by sous la direction de Marie-José Durand-Richard (2008)

About this book

L'analogie évoque plus souvent les figures de style ou les formes prélogiques de la pensée que la rigueur déductive du discours scientifique. L'ambiguïté dont elle est porteuse renvoie à la polysémie de la langue naturelle, et à une subjectivité dont la science cherche à se démarquer, tant elle aspire à constituer un langage universel. Pourtant, l'analogie intervient souvent dans les travaux de science, où elle "donne à voir" certains résultats théoriques sans recourir à une formalisation trop spécialisée.

Cover of The C Programming Language

The C Programming Language

par Brian W. Kernighan et Dennis M. Ritchie

Very well known, classic introduction to the C Programming Language. Both a text for learning, a reference, and, to some, the definition of proper C language features and use.

Cover of Graph-based natural language processing and information retrieval

Graph-based natural language processing and information retrieval

Rada Mihalcea, Dragomir Radev

"This book extensively covers the use of graph-based algorithms for natural language processing and information retrieval"-- "Graph theory and the fields of natural language processing and information retrieval are well-studied disciplines. Traditionally, these areas have been perceived as distinct, with different algorithms, different applications, and different potential end-users. However, recent research has shown that these disciplines are intimately connected, with a large variety of natural language processing and information retrieval applications finding efficient solutions within graph-theoretical frameworks. This book extensively covers the use of graph-based algorithms for natural language processing and information retrieval. It brings together topics as diverse as lexical semantics, text summarization, text mining, ontology construction, text classification, and information retrieval, which are connected by the common underlying theme of the use of graph-theoretical methods for text and information processing tasks. Readers will come away with a firm understanding of the major methods and applications in natural language processing and information retrieval that rely on graph-based representations and algorithms"--

Cover of The English languages

The English languages

Tom McArthur

"Hundreds of millions of people use English every day everywhere in the world, but may or may not succeed in understanding one other. Despite the success of its standard form (or forms) in many countries, the complex called 'English' is immensely diverse - probably more diverse than any language has ever been - and is likely to become more so in the next century. This book is a compelling and wide-ranging invitation to consider the nature, the varieties, the descriptions, the options, and the implications of this vast system. The English Languages looks at the 'pluralism' of English - the many 'Englishes' identified by scholars in the last twenty years - and addresses the question of whether English can be considered a family of languages in its own right, like the Romance languages."--Jacket.
