Training and Timing Local Scalar Enrichments under Global Pragmatic Pressures
Elementary sentences containing the quantificational determiner some seem to be ambiguous between a ‘weak’ existential meaning ∃ and a ‘strengthened’ some but not all meaning ∃+. The strengthened meaning is commonly assumed to be the output of a general enrichment mechanism, call it G (for ‘global’), that applies to the weak meaning of the sentence: G(∃) = ∃+. The application of G has been show...
متن کاملpatterns and variations in native and non-native interlanguage pragmatic rating: effects of rater training, intercultural proficiency, and self-assessment
although there are studies on pragmatic assessment, to date, literature has been almost silent about native and non-native english raters’ criteria for the assessment of efl learners’ pragmatic performance. focusing on this topic, this study pursued four purposes. the first one was to find criteria for rating the speech acts of apology and refusal in l2 by native and non-native english teachers...
15 صفحه اولMusical training and auditory global-local precedence
People demonstrate a consistent tendency to favor holistic or global processing over processing of local details in many perceptual domains; this tendency is called global-local precedence. Formal musical training is associated with qualitative changes in auditory processing, but the number of years required remains unclear, particularly for any perceptual differences between untrained and mini...
متن کاملConversational Implicatures Via General Pragmatic Pressures
This paper aims to show how general pragmatic pressures, interacting with the context of utterance, can produce specific conversational implicatures — as well as the lack thereof in nonsupporting environments. Inspired by the work of Merin (1997), Blutner (1998), van Rooy (2003a), Benz et al. (2005), and others, I use probabilities to represent speakers’ belief states and the content of their u...
متن کاملSEARNN: Training RNNs with Global-Local Losses
We propose SEARNN, a novel training algorithm for recurrent neural networks (RNNs) inspired by the “learning to search” (L2S) approach to structured prediction. RNNs have been widely successful in structured prediction applications such as machine translation or parsing, and are commonly trained using maximum likelihood estimation (MLE). Unfortunately, this training loss is not always an approp...
