Re: Natural Language Processsing in .Net - .NET (Core and Framework) Discussion Boards

So, how is the computer going to "understand the context" of a sentance??

I think the thing you're going to get, that isn't a university research project, is sentance splitting, and having the code guess what the sentance is supposed to be talking about, possible scoring the sentence on keywords.

Natural language processing is something I got interested in a few years ago, and it is, as you say, a hugely complex and difficult area. There are plenty of research papers and experimental systems around, but we're still a long way from even reasonable "understanding" that could be used in practical situations.

I love these questions where people ask about things like this, or face recognition, or image analysis for driving, without realising just how massively complicated they are. I blame too much sci-fi on TV, with all those robots, automated translators and "intelligent computers"... Smile | :)

There are three kinds of people in the world - those who can count and those who can't...

IMO there is nothing wrong with sci-fi on TV.
The problem is a lack of common sense, people expecting natural language processing, facial recognition, car driving, ... to be in the same league as syntax coloring a code snippet or creating a card game.

Hi guys.....
First of all Thanks for Participation...

And Well I Know thats not much easy i m asking about as i have checked so many tools/softwares regarding NLP and text mining and the first question that was in my mind exactly match with Mr. Dave "how is the computer going to "understand the context" of a sentance??" Sentance splitting is only the first part and can be done easily but only by splitting the sentence how can we know what the sentance want to be talked about..

For example if I say that I have completed my task.... and after some time i say it in this way that The status of the given task is completed....

So the context of both sentances is same but how can computer recognize that thing that in both sentences actually there is information about the status of task. Can I Extract it???????

maybe first run a sentance splitting and the run everything through an artificial neural network?

Will you please explain a little more how to run through artificial neural network?????

Don't you think that Microsoft would have added this functionality to SQL Server if it were that easy to implement?

Protege[^] and OWL come to mind, but that's kinda overkill for your average bussiness-application. This technology is interesting for Google and Wolfram|Alpha, but these also got the resources for this kind of research Smile | :)

Hello
Am working on a system but currently am stuck on reporting. One of my columns (Rates) is very dynamic depending on settings within the system. Other columns are TimeIn, TimeOut, Duration, ... and the row of course is the the person's names. How can I tackle this especially using cross tabs or any other way?
Thanx

Could you explain a little better what your report is trying to do? If we knew a little bit more about your table structure, we could try and help.

Have you looked into using this[^]?

There is a new WMI class in Windows Server 2008 called "Win32_ServerFeature" that will enumerate the features installed.

I want in run time if user click the arrow of combobox the lenght of combo box will increase automaticaly.If user move out the mouse from combo box then it will automaticaly revert back to actual size which is made in design page...

But the following is not working or not allowed
Dim dr As DataRow

will any one to help any command using instead of DataRow
OR

What do you mean by "not working" or "not allowed"? What is the specific error message?

There is no error message,

Hi all,

I'm writing a VB.NET (VS2008) console application that would remove a certain user from the given Active Directory group. All Active Directory related code works (like finding the user, group, etc.) but the user removal itself. The exception says that 'Server could not remove the user'. I tried both VB.NET and the C# with the same result. But, when I ran the same code in ASP.NET (vb) application - it worked! I made sure that I've all references the same but no luck.
Both apps I'm testing on my machine. And I do have rights to delete.
Is there something different that needs to be done in the console application?

Thanks a lot!

This sounds like a permission issue.

Have you tried manually setting the account details when you create your directory entry? Have you set an authentication type?

Sometimes I've found this to work.

Using the wrong tool for the job is half the fun.

Yep, I've hard coded the user name and the password and made sure that the user has all needed permissions.
