UKRAINIAN TIME: GRAMMATICAL INTERPRETATION

'Deep' Grammatical Relations for Semantic Interpretation

In this paper, we evaluate five distinct systems of labelled grammatical dependency against the kind of input we require for semantic interpretation, in particular for the deep semantic interpreter underlying a tutorial dialogue system. We focus on the following linguistic phenomena: passive, control and raising, noun modifiers, and meaningful vs. non-meaningful prepositions. We conclude that n...

Grammatical and Coherence-Based Factors in Pronoun Interpretation

We describe a pronoun interpretation experiment in which a Coherence Hypothesis is tested against preference-based analyses of pronoun interpretation, including the Parallel Function Preference and the Subject Preference. We demonstrate that preferences can be systematically disrupted through the manipulation of coherence, and that only the Coherence Hypothesis can predict the full range of cor...

Modelling Financial Time series using Grammatical Evolution

The traditional models of price, and its statistical signatures are often based on limiting assumptions, such as linearity. Moreover, the model developer is faced with the model selection problem, and model uncertainty. In this paper we introduce a method based on Grammatical Evolution (GE) to evolve models for predicting financial returns, and we examine the profitability of these models. Our ...

Time-driven effects on processing grammatical agreement

"Agreement" is a grammatical relation between words; e.g., the verbal suffix -s reflects agreement with a singular subject (He run-s). Previous studies with time intervals under 2.5 s between disagreeing words have found a left-lateralized negative brain potential, arguably reflecting detection of the morphosyntactic violation. We tested the neurophysiological effects of number agreement betwee...
