Visual BEAGLE: Java GUI version of BEAGLE model--allows for interactive teaching and queries, and visualizations of the resulting spaces learned by the model on your own text corpus. Convolution-based order encoding is included in this version.

Download: [BEAGLE.jar] [Source]


Word-2-Word Visualization Environment for Semantic Models: Very simple GUI interfact (Java) to train any of 22 different semantic metrics (using the S-Space package and some custom code) on a user-specified text corpus. Includes a variety of stemming and NLP clearning tools for text processing. The system displays multiple overlaid similarity metircs in a graphical network and contains a range of graph-theoretical network tools. See paper for details:

Holographic Wordform Encoder: Input word strings and receive an orthographic similarity matrix and vector representations for use in cognitive models. Supports open n-gram and terminal-relative encoding using both holographic reduced representations and binary spatter codes. See paper for details:

LMOSS: Lightweight Models of Semantic Similarity

LMOSS offers an interface for PMI scores similar to the official web interface for Latent Semantic Analysis, allowing matrix comparison, one-to-many comparison, pairwise comparison, and forced-choice comparison You'll need your own corpus to train it on--one of the advantages of PMI is that it's fast and easy to train on your own domain-specific corpora. You can read more here (Windows only; works on Vista and XP).

If you download the program and it won't run at all, you may need to first download and install the .NET Redistributables v. 3.5 from Microsoft.

Java/Python 3D Engine

Stand-alone 3D engine in native Java or Python. Supports interpolated shading, texturing, and Bezier surfaces. Uses native libraries only. This is the backbone of our 3D Geon encoding system for shape semantics.

3D Geon Encoder: Program to build and identify 3D word referents using Biedermann's geons. Produces both a 3D figure representation and a tree-based phrase grammar representing the structural components to train corpus-based semantic models on perceptual shape information. Played as an online encoding/decoding game, much like a geon version of Pictionary.
