In this paper I explain the reasons that led me to research and conceive a novel technology for dependency parsing, mixing together the strengths of data-driven transition-based and constraint-based approaches ...
I then briefly introduce a number of notes about a new parser model I'm working on, capable to proceed with the analysis in a "more aware" way, with a more "robust" concept of robustness. ...

In order to avoid such circular behavior, the algorithm must keep track of which constraint violations have already been corrected. These violations cannot be repeated. ...

An interactivist-constructivist approach to intelligence: Self-directed anticipative learning

The degree to which a dynamical state or condition is an explicit reference condition or norm is roughly determined by the relative longevity and system-wide impact of the constraints it imposes. ...

Norm creation, spreading and emergence: A survey of simulation models of norms in multi-agent systems

Multiagent and Grid Systems
In order to design and develop robust artificial agent societies, it is important to understand different approaches proposed by researchers by which norms can spread and emerge within agent societies. ...
This paper makes three contributions to the study of norms. Firstly, based on the simulation research on norms, we propose a life-cycle model for norms. ...
