Emerging knowledge can be envisioned as protruding magma. This paper describes how such a metaphoric view can be turned into a model to capture the 'continental drift' of concepts…
A Physical Metaphor to Study Semantic Drift
Sándor Darányi, Peter Wittek, Konstantinos Konstantinidis +2
In accessibility tests for digital preservation, over time we experience drifts of localized and labelled content in statistical models of evolving semantics represented as a vecto…
