Using Multi-Sense Vector Embeddings for Reverse Dictionaries
Popular word embedding methods such as word2vec and GloVe assign a single vector representation to each word, even if a word has multiple distinct meanings. Multi-sense embeddings instead provide different vectors for each sense of a word. However, they typically cannot serve as a drop-in replacement for conventional single-sense embeddings, because the correct sense vector needs to be selected for each word. In this work, we study the effect of multi-sense embeddings on the task of reverse dictionaries. We propose a technique to easily integrate them into an existing neural network architecture using an attention mechanism. Our experiments demonstrate that large improvements can be obtained when employing multi-sense embeddings both in the input sequence as well as for the target representation. An analysis of the sense distributions and of the learned attention is provided as well
The Portuguese-speaking community in Lambeth: a scoping study
This report presents the findings from research with the Portuguese-speaking community in Lambeth commissioned by the London Community Foundation. It is designed to inform the work of the Lambeth Community Fund Grant Committee which makes decisions regarding the distribution the Portuguese Speakers Community Fund. Based mainly on semi-structured, face to face interviews with community representatives and local service providers, it provides a snapshot of the Portuguese-speaking community in Lambeth, its make-up, needs and support structure
Electromagnetic structure and weak decay of pseudoscalar mesons in a light-front QCD-inspired model
We study the scaling of the meson mass splitting and the
pseudoscalar weak decay constants with the mass of the meson, as seen in the
available experimental data. We use an effective light-front QCD-inspired
dynamical model regulated at short-distances to describe the valence component
of the pseudoscalar mesons. The experimentally known values of the mass
splittings, decay constants (from global lattice-QCD averages) and the pion
charge form factor up to 4 [GeV/c] are reasonably described by the modelComment: 27 Pages, 7 eps figures,use revtex
Weak decay constant of pseudscalar meson in a QCD-inspired model
We show that a linear scaling between the weak decay constants of
pseudoscalar and the vector mesons masses is supported by the available
experimental data. The decay constant scale as (f_m
is decay constant and M_V vector meson ground state mass). This simple form is
justified within a renormalized light-front QCD-inpired model for
quark-antiquark bound states.Comment: 4 pages, use revtex style. To appear "Brazilian Journal of Physics

Lepton Flavor Violation and Collider Searches in a Type I + II Seesaw Model
Neutrino are massless in the Standard Model. The most popular mechanism to
generate neutrino masses are the type I and type II seesaw, where right-handed
neutrinos and a scalar triplet are augmented to the Standard Model,
respectively. In this work, we discuss a model where a type I + II seesaw
mechanism naturally arises via spontaneous symmetry breaking of an enlarged
gauge group. Lepton flavor violation is a common feature in such setup and for
this reason, we compute the model contribution to the
and decays. Moreover, we explore the connection between
the neutrino mass ordering and lepton flavor violation in perspective with the
LHC, HL-LHC and HE-LHC sensitivities to the doubly charged scalar stemming from
the Higgs triplet. Our results explicitly show the importance of searching for
signs of lepton flavor violation in collider and muon decays. The conclusion
about which probe yields stronger bounds depends strongly on the mass ordering
adopted, the absolute neutrino masses and which much decay one considers. In
the 1-5 TeV mass region of the doubly charged scalar, lepton flavor violation
experiments and colliders offer orthogonal and complementary probes. Thus if a
signal is observed in one of the two new physics searches, the other will be
able to assess whether it stems from a seesaw framework.Comment: 41 pages, 1 figure, 2 table
Exactly Solvable Models of Interacting Spin-s Particles in one-dimension
We consider the exact solution of a many-body problem of spin- particles
interacting through an arbitrary U(1) invariant factorizable -matrix. The
solution is based on a unified formulation of the quantum inverse scattering
method for an arbitrary -dimensional monodromy matrix. The respective
eigenstates are shown to be given in terms of creation fields by a general
new recurrence relation. This allows us to derive the spectrum and the
respective Bethe ansatz equations.Comment: 10 pages, plain late

A brown dwarf companion to the intermediate-mass star HR6037
In the course of an imaging survey we have detected a visual companion to the
intermediate-mass star HR 6037. In this letter, we present two epoch
observations of the binary with NACO/VLT, and near-IR spectroscopy of the
secondary with ISAAC/VLT. The NACO observations allow us to confirm HR 6037B as
a co-moving companion. Its J and H band ISAAC spectra suggest the object has an
spectral type of M9+-1, with a surface gravity intermediate between that of 10
Myr dwarfs and field dwarfs with identical spectral type. The comparison of its
Ks-band photometry with evolutionary tracks allows us to derive a mass,
effective temperature, and surface gravity of 62+-20 MJup, Teff = 2330+-200 K,
and log g = 5.1+-0.2, respectively. The small mass ratio of the binary, -0.03,
and its long orbital period, -5000 yr, makes HR 6037 a rare and uncommon binary
system.Comment: (5 pages, 4 figures, accepted for publication in A&A Letters
