Conceptualizing Semantic Relevance between Word Roots

Kambiz Badie received all his degrees from Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan. His research focus is analogical knowledge processing and modeling interpretative processes, while his familiarity with Constructive Realism and Strangification as its main strategy enabled him to develop some advanced frameworks for analogical reasoning and interpretative processes. Within this scope, he is the author of two books and a variety of papers on the interpretative approach to analogical reasoning, viewpoint-oriented manipulation of concepts, semantic fusion for phrase interpretation, and schema satisfaction reasoning. He is a Full Professor at the ICT Research Institute, Iran, an Adjunct Professor of the University of Tehran, Iran, and an invited member of the Iranian Academy of Science.

Maryam Tayefeh Mahmoudi received her PhD degree in Artificial Intelligence from the University of Tehran, Iran. She has co-authored a book on Strangification (as the core strategy of Constructive Realism), and a variety of research papers on content generation, content management, text mining and text summarization with a particular emphasis on e-education and research support purposes. She is an active researcher in the areas of content management and creation and augmented reality, and is interested in their application to human issues such as human-computer interaction and e-pedagogy and e-learning.
