How visual saliency affects referent accessibility
As referents are more accessible in discourse, they can be referred to with more attenuated expressions, such as pronouns. Accessibility is known to be affected by the referent’s saliency in the linguistic context, but much less is known about the effect of saliency in the visual context. In this paper, we investigate whether a referent’s visual saliency affects the choice of referring expressi...
متن کاملSpatial Gestures Point the Way: A Broader Understanding of the Gestural Referent
We investigated the use of iconic and deictic gestures during the communication of spatial information. Expert structural geologists were asked to explain one portion of a geologic map. Spatial gestures used in each expert’s response were coded as deictic (indicating an object in the conversational space), iconic (depicting an aspect of an object or event), or both deictic and iconic (indicatin...
متن کاملAccessibility of Referent Information Influences Sentence Planning: An Eye-Tracking Study
This study investigated the time-course of online sentence formulation (i.e., incrementality in sentence planning) as a function of the preceding discourse context. In two eye-tracking experiments, participants described pictures of transitive events (e.g., a frog catching a fly). The accessibility of the agent (Experiment 1) and patient (Experiment 2) was manipulated in the discourse preceding...
متن کاملConversion of free-viewpoint 3DTV signals for stereo displays
This paper presents our ongoing research on view synthesis of free-viewpoint 3D video for 3DTV. First we describe our rendering algorithm developed for autostereoscopic viewing of multi-view 3D video. Then we present two solutions for converting free-viewpoint 3D into a stereoscopic vision, while taking into account the complexity of the algorithms since we aim at a real-time hardware implement...
متن کاملReferent : Johan Bos Titel :
Computational semantics is the business of associating meaning representations with natural language expressions and drawing inferences from them. It is an area that has matured to a state in which we have seen the arrival of broad coverage systems capable of producing deep semantic representations for open-domain texts. Such systems however face the problem of selecting appropriate background ...
