Indeed, the proposed model is different from traditional approaches like ontological representation. It is based on an algebraic representation of emotions. We represent every emotion as a vector in a space ...

The efficiency of our ontology-based reasoning model relies on two keystones. First, it is based on the matching of construction projects represented by RDF graphs to technical conformity queries formalized as SPARQL queries. Second, our reasoning model integrates the meta-knowledge on conformity checking process. Our approach of capitalizing such knowledge is based on the development of semantic annotations of conformity queries and organizing them into a query base. This helps to formalize the expert knowledge in form of expert rules scheduling the matching operations of the checking process. Semantic annotations of conformity queries also help to generate a structured conformity report, which interprets the results of reasoning in terms of conformity checking in construction.

Based on the compact representation we define a space of specific graphs which represents all ALE-concept ...

When supply of skill is …xed, trade that enhances growth will bene…t high-skilled workers disproportionately as it increases productivity in R&D. This paper develops a theoretical mechanism in which trade openness aects skill premium through supply and demand simultane- ously as both are tied to economic growth. When trade barrier is lifted between two symmetric countries, infusion of knowledge increases economic growth, inducing more workers to acquire skills to reap higher labor earning. Increasing supply of high-skilled labor can partially oset or even reverse the eect of rising demand.
