At Least Some Determiners Aren't Determiners

One of the success stories in formal semantics is the analysis of NPs as generalized quantifiers, which can be traced back from Barwise & Cooper (1981) via Montague to Frege. The great attraction of this analysis is that it allows for a compositional analysis of the meaning of noun phrases that is consistent with independently motivated assumptions about their syntax. For example, Barwise and C...

Comment: Warning malingerers produces more sophisticated malingering.

Warning persons that attempts to malinger on neuropsychological testing will be detected is not an effective way of reducing malingering behavior. Rather, the literature on coaching consistently shows that malingerers who are warned of the presence of symptom validity assessment techniques are able to feign deficits in a less exaggerated and more believable fashion and therefore elude detection...

Some Observations on Local Least Squares

In previous work we introduced a construction to produce biorthogonal multiresolutions from given subdivisions. The approach involved estimating the solution to a least squares problem by means of a number of smaller least squares approximations on local portions of the data. In this work we use a result by Dahlquist, et. al. on the method of averages to make observational comparisons between t...

At least some protist species are not ubiquitous.

Body size is one of the main regulators of the ecological characteristics of living organisms, including their biogeography. The 'ubiquity hypothesis' for microorganisms states that they are widely distributed, if not cosmopolitan, due to their small size that allows passive dispersal, in contrast to large organisms that are limited by geographical barriers in their active dispersal. Such idea,...

Noah A . Smith . Ellipsis Happens , and Deletion Is How NOAH

I offer an overview of recent literature on ellipsis phenomena in natural language, including the most salient empirical arguments surrounding the classification of ellipsis as a phenomenon of the Phonological Form or of the Logical Form. I show that the majority of evidence supports the view of ellipsis as PF-deletion rather than LF-copying. I then give a theoretical argument that supports thi...
