Notes on Grammatical Vocabulary in Central Vietnamese

This study focuses on grammatical vocabulary in Central Vietnamese (CV, hereafter) with the goal of exploring historical-linguistic developments in Vietnamese in general. One purpose of focusing on grammatical vocabulary is to provide a sample of how this type of vocabulary can innovate over time in different dialectal regions. For research on Central Vietnamese in particular, this focus also a...

Grammatical Bigrams

Unsupervised learning algorithms have been derived for several statistical models of English grammar, but their computational complexity makes applying them to large data sets intractable. This paper presents a probabilistic model of English grammar that is much simpler than conventional models, but which admits an efficient EM training algorithm. The model is based upon grammatical bigrams, i....

Grammatical Swarm

This proof of concept study examines the possibility of specifying the construction of programs using a Particle Swarm algorithm, and represents a new form of automatic programming based on Social Learning, Social Programming or Swarm Programming. Each individual particle represents choices of program construction rules, where these rules are specified using a Backus-Naur Form grammar. The resu...
