Sloppy Identity
Although sloppy interpretation is usually accounted for by theories of ellipsis, it often arises in non-elliptical contexts. In this paper, a theory of sloppy interpretation is provided which captures this fact. The underlying idea is that sloppy interpretation results from a semantic constraint on parallel structures and the theory is shown to predict sloppy readings for deaccented and paychec...
متن کاملHardts Surprising Sloppy Readings: A Flat Binding Account
The paper presents an additional argument for a specific account of semantic binding: the flat-binding analysis. The argument is based on observations concerning sloppy interpretations in verb phrase ellipsis when the binder is not the subject of the elided VP. In one such case, it is important that one of the binders belong to the domain of the other. This case can be derived from the flat-bin...
متن کاملA Selectable Sloppy Heap
We study the selection problem, namely that of computing the ith order statistic of n given elements. Here we offer a data structure called selectable sloppy heap handling a dynamic version in which upon request: (i) a new element is inserted or (ii) an element of a prescribed quantile group is deleted from the data structure. Each operation is executed in (ideal!) constant time— and is thus in...
متن کاملSorting Sloppy Sonic
In the classic picture of morphogen-mediated patterning, cells acquire the correct spatial arrangement of specified fates by reading a precisely distributed gradient of morphogen. Xiong et al. now provide evidence for an alternate strategy-cells of the zebrafish neural tube actively sort to their correct positions following disordered specification by Sonic hedgehog.
متن کاملA sloppy checkpoint
Muscle f irst in neurodegenerative disease? R esearchers hunting for the molecular malfunction behind the paralyzing disease spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) might have been looking on the wrong side of the neuromuscular junction, as Rajendra et al. show on page 831. The work suggests that reduced levels of SMA’s signature protein, SMN, disrupt the junction from the muscle side. SMA is the second ...
