Alignment Across Oriental and Indo-European Languages
The linguistic characteristics of Oriental languages and Indo-European languages are very different. Using purely length-based algorithm could not produce high performance on aligning texts. This paper investigates the effectiveness of critical part-of-speech (POS) criterion on alignment under conditions of different search strategies and different register texts. Two metrics, recall and precis...
متن کاملAccounting for Sonority Violations: the Case of Georgian Consonant Sequencing
Georgian is one of several languages which allows consonant sequences not predicted by the Sonority Sequencing Principle (SSP). The goal of the present study is to formulate a new generalization regarding consonant sequencing in Georgian, one not necessarily relying on the SSP. This generalization refers to observed preferences for combinations of certain feature specifications in the sequences...
متن کاملIndo-European languages tree by Levenshtein distance
The evolution of languages closely resembles the evolution of haploid organisms. This similarity has been recently exploited [1, 2] to construct language trees. The key point is the definition of a distance among all pairs of languages which is the analogous of a genetic distance. Many methods have been proposed to define these distances, one of this, used by glottochronology, compute distance ...
متن کاملNetworking Phylogeny for Indo-European and Austronesian Languages
Harnessing cognitive abilities of many individuals, a language evolves upon their mutual interactions establishing a persistent social environment to which language is closely attuned. Human history is encoded in the rich sets of linguistic data by means of symmetry patterns that are not always feasibly represented by trees. Here we use the methods developed in the study of complex networks to ...
متن کاملProto-Indo-European Lexicon: The Generative Etymological Dictionary of Indo-European Languages
Proto-Indo-European Lexicon (PIE Lexicon) is the generative etymological dictionary of Indo-European languages. The reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European (PIE) is obtained by applying the comparative method, the output of which equals the Indo-European (IE) data. Due to this the Indo-European sound laws leading from PIE to IE, revised in Pyysalo 2013, can be coded using Finite-State Transducers...
