Predicting Garden Path Sentences
This work is an investigation into part of the human sentence parsing mechanism (HSPM). The major test of the psychological val idi ty of any model of the HSPM is that it fail on precisely those sentences that humans find to be garden paths. It is hypothesized that the HSPM consists of at least two processes. We call the first process the syntactic processor, and the second wil l be known as th...

متن کاملHallucinations in Garden Path sentences
Garden path sentences are those in which an ambiguity in the structure biases the reader’s interpretation so strongly toward a wrong interpretation that when a disambiguating word is encountered, the meaning is very tough to recover, if at all possible. In this project, we study sentences that are not traditionally garden path, but that are interpreted as garden path because the initial input, ...
متن کاملConceptual Analysis of Garden-Path Sentences
By integrating syntactic and semantic processing, our parser (LAZY) is able to deterministically parse sentences which syntactically appear to be garden path sentences although native speakers do not need conscious reanalysis to understand them. LAZY comprises an extension to conceptual analysis which yields an explicit representation of syntactic information and a flexible interaction between ...
متن کاملSemantic Analysis of Chinese Garden-Path Sentences
This paper presents a semantic model for Chinese garden-path sentences. Based on the Sentence Degeneration model of HNC theory, a garden-path can arise from two types of ambiguities: SD type ambiguity and NP allocated ambiguity. This paper provides an approach to process garden-paths, in which ambiguity detection and analysis take the place of revision. The performance of the approach is evalua...
