 Hybrid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The second meaning of "hybrid" is crosses between populations, breeds or cultivars of a single species.
Hybrids are often named by the portmanteau method, combining the names of the two parent species.
Hybrids should not be confused with chimaeras such as the chimera between sheep and goat known as the geep.

 Elm - The real meaning from Timesharetalk wikipedia   (Site not responding. Last check: )
There are between 20 to 45 species of elm; the ambiguity in the number is a result of difficult species delimitations in elms, owing to the ease of hybridization between them and the development of local seed-sterile vegetatively-propagated microspecies in some areas, mainly in the field elm group.
Hybridization between Asiatic species and European elms, or between Asiatic elms alone, has now, after a number of false dawns, produced some fine trees.
Hybrids with immunity or very high resistance to disease are now commercially available after over 20 years of field trials; several originated in the USA, two in the Netherlands, and two in Italy.

 Word Sense Disambiguation
Analysis of the example shows that this is a case where selectional restrictions fail to disambiguate ``pen'', both potential senses indicate physical objects in which things may be placed (although this is unlikely in the case of the first sense), the preposition in may apply to both.
However, the true test of word sense disambiguation technology shall be when accurate disambiguation algorithms exist, we shall then be in a position to experiment whether or not they add to their effectiveness.
The first way is to disambiguate the words by some means, as happens in the case of parallel corpora; the other approach is to add ambiguity to the corpus and have the algorithm attempt to resolve this ambiguity to return to the original corpus.

Sterility is often attributed to the different number of chromosomes the two species have, for example donkeys have 62 chromosomes, while horses have 64, mules and hinnies have 63.
Hybrids have intermediate patterns and are predated upon.
Some of these hybrids are crosses with humans and: brownies, nymphs, gods, Moo-Moo (Solomon Island Giant), chimpanzees (Humanzee),bats (Batboy), snakes/lizards (Naga, Syrictae), dropa, giants, cat people, mermaids, fairies, watchers, demons, dryads, spirits, incubus, succubus, pech, triton, larvae, martes, and others.

 LINGUIST List 15.2420: Comp Ling: Hartrumpf: 'Hybrid...'   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Basic concepts of evaluation techniques are explained because the disambiguation method is thoroughly evaluated for three paradigmatic ambiguity problems in NLP using annotated corpora of German newspaper articles.
The solution is hybrid and combines interpretation rules expressing valuable linguistic knowledge and statistics on top of the applicability of these rules for annotated corpora.
The three ambiguity problems, whose treatment together with the general disambiguation approach is the scientific center of the thesis, are prominent examples that span a whole range of disambiguation problems.

Not surprisingly, word sense disambiguation is a major research topic in language engineering.
Supervised learning, from a tagged / disambiguated corpus: some learning ability, but again the resources are expensive and hard to get hold of.
For example Yarowsky (1995) used a small set of definitions as ``seeds" to classify the simple cases in a corpus and ``grew" outward from there to increasingly larger lists which were re-applied to the corpus, giving 96% success.

 Ktarian - Memory Alpha
In the case of a Ktarian/Human hybrid, the resulting offspring can lack the bony forehead structures and yellow eyes, and instead have exo-cranial ridges.
A rare complication of these hybrid gestations occur when the baby shifts position in the uterus, and the exo-cranial ridges lodge in the uterine wall.
At the age of two, Naomi Wildman, a Ktarian/Human hybrid, grew five centimeters in a three-week period.

 The Architecture of the SCREEN System
While previous hybrid symbolic and connectionist architectures are usually within either a symbolic or a connectionist module (Hendler, 1989; Faisal & Kwasny, 1990; Medsker 1994), in SCREEN a global state is described as a collection of individual symbolic and connectionist modules.
This semantic disambiguation is learned in a simple recurrent network which provides the mapping from the ambiguous semantic word representation to the disambiguated semantic word representation.
Figure 10 shows that the disambiguated basic syntactic representation of ``meine'' (``mean'') as a verb - and a very small preference for a pronoun - is mapped to the verb group category at the higher abstract syntactic category representation.

 POS Tagging Overview   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The simplest stochastic taggers disambiguate words based solely on the probability that a word occurs with a particular tag.
Another solution is to assign a set of default tags (typically the open classes: N, V, Adj., Adv.) to unknown words, and to disambiguate using the probabilities that those tags occur at the end of the n-gram in question.
The final step in the basic probabilistic disambiguation process is to use the transitional probabilities just computed to determine the optimal path through the search space ranging from one unambiguous tag to the next.

We have proposed hybrid prediction using branch classification [3] as a mechanism to help improve the accuracy of branch predictors beyond this figure of 96%.
Using this approach, a hybrid branch predictor can be constructed such that each component branch predictor is used for branches on which it performs best.
In addition to our branch classification-based hybrids, we are continuing work on improving hybrid predictors which dynamically select which component predictor to use.

The module, which is currently in the process of being designed and implemented, uses a hybrid example-based approach to disambiguate between various possible meanings of phrasal verbs, while at the same time generating a parse tree for the input sentence(s) that may be utilized for further translation.
An approach to phrasal verbs in the Danish language, as used in the SIMPLE system [8], classifies phrasal verbs as compositional and non-compositional; the former being those in which the verb and particle retain their core meaning and the latter being those in which this is not the case.
A crucial factor in effective disambiguation is the use of a suitable distance function, since the meaning corresponding to the entry with minimum distance from the input, shall be chosen as the output.
