Cognitive-semantic representation of actions
The semantic representation of action refers to both the organization in memory of knowledge about actions and their processing. The semantics of action relate to the sensory-motor representations linked to execution, and are expressed through verbs and gestures. Any representation of the lexicon expressing actions (verbs, verbal expressions, nominalization) forms explicit knowledge about functional objects. This view is in line with the perspectives of linguists who demonstrate the presence of cognitive primitives (Jackendoif, 1983, Descl矇s, 1985). The meaning of a sign in a discourse is a representation in which the semantic value in language is combined. This representation is constructed by the brain's cognitive relations with reference to the objects that surround us. Asking a person to perform the action of closing an open door is expressed by the following statement: "close the door", and more often in colloquial language by "the door!", but infrequently by "close". With this in mind, we're interested in the action verb in aphasia.

Object Oriented Programming Through Python
Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a widely used programming paradigm that reduces development times-making it easier to read, reuse, and maintain your code. OOP shifts the focus from thinking about code as a sequence of actions to looking at your program as a collection of objects that interact with each other. In this course, you'll learn how to create classes, which act as the blueprints for every object in Python. You'll then leverage principles called inheritance and polymorphism to reuse and optimize code.

A Study of Tackling Fake News with Machine Learning Approaches
Document from the year 2024 in the subject Computer Sciences - Computational linguistics, grade: 10, VIT University (VIT), course: Computer Science, language: English, abstract: The fake news on social media and various other media is wide spreading and is a mat- ter of serious concern due to its ability to cause a lot of social and national damage with destructive impacts. A lot of research is already focused on detecting it. Here we take three data sets namely " fake news and real news", "ISOT" and "LIAR". We try to implement six machine learning models on these data sets and trying to find their accu- racy and precision. The models we uses are Decision Tree, Random Forest, Support vector machine, Naive Bayes, KNN and LSTM. WE use tools like python scikit learn and NLP. Python scikit library can be used for feature extraction and textual analysis. We tries to find out which model works best on which data keeping the complexity of the data in mind. We would like to find a perfect model for any of the regional language. But the constrain is the availability of good dataset . So we try to propose a new dataset.

Foundations of C Programming and Data Structures
C programming is a foundational language in the world of computer science. It's known for its efficiency and close-to-hardware capabilities, making it ideal for system programming and developing software where performance is critical. Understanding C allows programmers to grasp fundamental concepts like memory management, pointers, and data structures.Data structures are crucial in organizing and storing data efficiently. In C, developers can implement various data structures such as arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, trees, and graphs. These structures are essential for tasks ranging from simple list management to complex algorithm design.Together, C programming and data structures form the backbone of many software applications, providing the tools necessary to build efficient, scalable, and robust solutions. Learning these concepts is key for any aspiring programmer looking to understand the fundamentals of computer science.

Learn R
Learning a computer language like R can be either frustrating, fun or boring. Having fun requires challenges that wake up the learner's curiosity but also provide an emotional reward for overcoming them. The book is designed so that it includes smaller and bigger challenges, in what I call playgrounds, in the hope that all readers will enjoy their path to R fluency. Fluency in the use of a language is a skill that is acquired through practice and exploration. For students and professionals in the biological sciences, humanities and many applied fields, recognizing the parallels between R and natural languages should help them feel at home with R. The approach I use is similar to that of a travel guide, encouraging exploration and describing the available alternatives and how to reach them.

Advanced Image Processing Techniques
Texture is one of the most important features for classifying and recognizing objects and scenes, and can be characterized by local variations in pixel values that are repeated regularly or randomly throughout the object or image. Several methods for classifying images using texture features have been proposed in the literature. However, there is no generic method or formal approach that is useful for a wide variety of images. Texture refers to a visual pattern that has some homogeneous properties that are not simply the result of color or intensity. Unlike other characteristics (brightness, color), texture cannot be defined on a single pixel, but rather across a region or set of pixels. The three main approaches used in image classification to describe textures are statistical, structural and spectral, which are presented in this paper.

Secured Authentication System for Internet of Things
Academic Paper from the year 2024 in the subject Computer Sciences - Internet of Things, IOT, grade: A, Free University of Berlin (The National Institute of Engineering, Mysore), course: Ph.D, language: English, abstract: The key objectives defined in this thesis are given as follows: To analyse the different security breaches in the IoT Ecosystem. To develop a lightweight cryptographic scheme for secured Authentication in IoT. To develop a multilevel security model by using Enhanced Cryptosystem for secured Authentication in IoT. To ensure reliable and secure communication and access across multiple co-operatively communicating devices in IoT ecosystems ensuring optimal security and authentication system is must. Though, IoT demands ensuring security and authentication for both "device level security" and "data security under communication". Noticeably, the device level security addresses attack resilience from any unwanted or unexpected intruder by applying certain authentication variables or key agreement policies. However, in the last few years, the events pertaining to smart card loss attack (SCLA), Brute-Force attack, impersonation attack, data sniffing attack etc., have questioned major at-hand security solutions. The irony is, in the majority of IoT systems, the access information or the key agreement information is saved or preserved onto the local memory, which often broadens the horizon for data loss, or attack. In such classical approaches the possibility of SCLA, Impersonation and Brute-force attack can't be neglected. And therefore, ensuring both system level access authentication is inevitable. In other words, strengthening data security in IoT systems is equally significant like device level security and authentication. Once system considers both data level security as well as device level authentication system retaining quality of content and hardware efficiency becomes equally inevitable. On the other hand, maintaining efficacy of the security

The Feasibility of Predicting Financial Crises using Machine Learning
Bachelor Thesis from the year 2024 in the subject Computer Science - Commercial Information Technology, grade: 1.0, Frankfurt School of Finance & Management, language: English, abstract: In a world characterized by increasingly complex financial markets, the prediction of financial crises is a constant challenge. This bachelor thesis investigates the use of machine learning, in particular regression algorithms, to analyze and predict financial crises based on macroeconomic data. By building six different regression models and optimizing them using cross-validation and GridSearch, the feasibility of using these technologies for accurate predictions is discussed. Although traditional models show limited effectiveness, the integration of machine learning, especially kNN algorithms, reveals significant potential for improving prediction accuracy. The paper highlights the importance of classification algorithms and provides crucial insights for application in real-world scenarios to provide valuable tools for policy and business decision makers.
