From Complex Sentences to a Formal Semantic Representation using Syntactic Text Simplification and Open Information Extraction
This work presents a discourse-aware Text Simplification approach that splits and rephrases complex English sentences within the semantic context in which they occur. Based on a linguistically grounded transformation stage, complex sentences are transformed into shorter utterances with a simple canonical structure that can be easily analyzed by downstream applications. To avoid breaking down the input into a disjointed sequence of statements that is difficult to interpret, the author incorporates the semantic context between the split propositions in the form of hierarchical structures and semantic relationships, thus generating a novel representation of complex assertions that puts a semantic layer on top of the simplified sentences. In a second step, she leverages the semantic hierarchy of minimal propositions to improve the performance of Open IE frameworks. She shows that such systems benefit in two dimensions. First, the canonical structure of the simplified sentences facilitatesthe extraction of relational tuples, leading to an improved precision and recall of the extracted relations. Second, the semantic hierarchy can be leveraged to enrich the output of existing Open IE approaches with additional meta-information, resulting in a novel lightweight semantic representation for complex text data in the form of normalized and context-preserving relational tuples.

Your Snowflake Data Cloud will be fit for purpose, extensible, and at the forefront of both Direct Share, Data Exchange, and Snowflake Marketplace.BUILDING THE SNOWFLAKE DATA CLOUD helps you transform your organization into monetizing the value locked up within your data. As the digital economy takes hold, with data volume, velocity, and variety growing at exponential rates, you need tools and techniques to quickly categorize, collate, summarize, and aggregate data. You also need the means to seamlessly distribute to release value. This book shows how Snowflake provides all these things and how to use them to your advantage.The book helps you succeed by delivering faster than you can deliver with legacy products and techniques. You will learn how to leverage what you already know, and what you don’t, all applied in a Snowflake Data Cloud context. After reading this book, you will discover and embrace the future where the Data Cloud is central. You will be able to position your organization to take advantage by identifying, adopting, and preparing your tooling for the coming wave of opportunity around sharing and monetizing valuable, corporate data.WHAT YOU WILL LEARN* Understand why Data Cloud is important to the success of your organization* Up-skill and adopt Snowflake, leveraging the benefits of cloud platforms* Articulate the Snowflake Marketplace and identify opportunities to monetize data* Identify tools and techniques to accelerate integration with Data Cloud* Manage data consumption by monitoring and controlling access to datasets* Develop data load and transform capabilities for use in future projectsWHO THIS BOOK IS FORSolution architects seeking implementation patterns to integrate with a Data Cloud; data warehouse developers looking for tips, tools, and techniques to rapidly deliver data pipelines; sales managers who want to monetize their datasets and understand the opportunities that Data Cloud presents; and anyone who wishes to unlock value contained within their data silosANDREW CARRUTHERS is the Director for the Snowflake Corporate Data Cloud at the London Stock Exchange Group.

Pragmatic Python Programming
Explore the world of programming languages through Python and learn the building blocks of writing programs. This book covers Python 3.10, explaining it through six key concepts. Each chapter contains a real-world example with practical advice and a section on advanced concepts.You'll start by reviewing the concept of expressions and functions, which are two of the core building blocks of programming languages. You'll then move on to object-oriented concepts to help gain a practical understanding of Python, along with a chapter on control flow constructs. The book also takes a close look at sequences, explaining constructs and additional types, and wraps up with a chapter on modules, focusing on how to use and create packages.Whether you’re new to programming or already an experienced developer, upon finishing this book, you will have a solid understanding of Python's state-of-the-art development features.WHAT YOU WILL LEARN* Study the six main concepts of the programming languages* Learn how to use programming language constructs through examples* Review the core Python language notations and concepts.* Start using Python as a working languageWHO THIS BOOK IS FORSoftware developers wanting to gain professional core Python knowledge quickly, and non-developers wanting to gain an understanding of programming concepts.Gabor Guta has studied and researched at Research Institute for Symbolic Computation, Johannes Kepler University, Linz to gain an understanding of the formal meaning of programming languages. He worked on complex technology transfer and cheminformatics projects where both strong theoretical background and practical software development skills were crucial. Currently, he is developing distributed software for bioinformatics and system biology projects. Beside his software development work, he has been continuously training people both in academic and industrial settings. He has been actively teaching Python since 2017.
