A Generative Model of Words and Relationships from Multiple Sources
Neural language models are a powerful tool to embed words into semantic
vector spaces. However, learning such models generally relies on the
availability of abundant and diverse training examples. In highly specialised
domains this requirement may not be met due to difficulties in obtaining a
large corpus, or the limited range of expression in average use. Such domains
may encode prior knowledge about entities in a knowledge base or ontology. We
propose a generative model which integrates evidence from diverse data sources,
enabling the sharing of semantic information. We achieve this by generalising
the concept of co-occurrence from distributional semantics to include other
relationships between entities or words, which we model as affine
transformations on the embedding space. We demonstrate the effectiveness of
this approach by outperforming recent models on a link prediction task and
demonstrating its ability to profit from partially or fully unobserved data
training labels. We further demonstrate the usefulness of learning from
different data sources with overlapping vocabularies.Comment: 8 pages, 5 figures; incorporated feedback from reviewers; to appear

The Knowledge Level in Cognitive Architectures: Current Limitations and Possible Developments
In this paper we identify and characterize an analysis of two problematic aspects affecting the representational level of cognitive architectures (CAs), namely: the limited size and the homogeneous typology of the encoded and processed knowledge.
We argue that such aspects may constitute not only a technological problem that, in our opinion, should be addressed in order to build articial agents able to exhibit intelligent behaviours in general scenarios, but also an epistemological one, since they limit the plausibility of the comparison of the CAs' knowledge representation and processing mechanisms with those executed by humans in their everyday activities. In the final part of the paper further directions of research will be explored, trying to address current limitations and
future challenges
