Adverbs and the Syntax-semantics Interplay
Recent literature on the placement and interpretation of adverbs has tried to explain crosslinguistic fixed hierarchies on the order of adverbs on the basis of strict syntactic hierarchies (e.g. Cinque 1999). The aim of this talk is to show that, in order to understand the distribution of adverbs, one must take into account information coming from different domains: their (non)inherent semantic...
متن کاملSentiment Analysis: Adjectives and Adverbs are Better than Adjectives Alone
To date, there is almost no work on the use of adverbs in sentiment analysis, nor has there been any work on the use of adverb-adjective combinations (AACs). We propose an AAC-based sentiment analysis technique that uses a linguistic analysis of adverbs of degree. We define a set of general axioms (based on a classification of adverbs of degree into five categories) that all adverb scoring tech...
متن کاملTimbre interfaces using adjectives and adverbs
How can we provide interfaces to synthesis algorithms that will allow us to manipulate timbre directly, using the same timbre-words that are used by human musicians to communicate about timbre? This paper describes ongoing work that uses machine learning methods (principally genetic algorithms and neural networks) to learn (1) to recognise timbral characteristics of sound and (2) to adjust timb...
متن کاملA Note on Representing Adjectives and Adverbs
Representing Engl ish ad jec t i ves and adverbs using a l o g i c a l l y perspicuous no ta t ion (extended semantic networks, Schubert. 1974) and the i r accomodation w i t h i n a state-based paradigm (Cercone, 1975) are discussed. Where appropr ia te , e x p l i c i t comparisons are made w i th re la ted approaches such as those of Schank (1972.197*0, Montague (1972), Bartsch and Venneraan...
متن کاملSynthesising Timbres and Timbre-Changes from Adjectives/Adverbs
Synthesising timbres and changes to timbres from natural language descriptions is an interesting challenge for computer music. This paper describes the current state of an ongoing project which takes a machine learning approach to this problem. We discuss the challenges that are presented by this, discuss various strategies for tackling this problem, and explain some experimental work. In parti...
