A Language Engineering Architecture for Processing Informal Mathematical Discourse
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a modular architecture for processing informal mathematical language as found in textbooks and mathematical publications. We point at its properties relevant in addressing three aspects of informal mathematical discourse: (i) the interleaved symbolic and natural language, (ii) the linguistic, domain, and notational context, and (iii) the imprecision of the informal language. The objective in the modular approach is to enable parameterisation of the system with respect to the natural language of the text and the mathematical domain of discourse.

An Investigation of Gender Differences Between Women’s and Men’s Informal Discussion in Iranian EFL Context
The language used by women and men differ in all speech communities. In order to examine some of these variations, the present study aimed to investigate the differences in an informal written discourse. For this purpose, a comparison between men’s and women’s informal language was made regarding length of utterances, questions, intensifiers, and hedges. Results revealed that men employed highe...
متن کاملOperations on Metamodels in the Context of a UML-Based Metamodeling Architecture
In the context of information system engineering, we propose a four-layer metamodeling architecture with a comprehensive set of operations on metamodels. Our architecture enables modelers to use a three-step modeling process: first, giving an informal description of the universe of the discourse (in terms of modeling paradigms); then, defining a corresponding UML dialect (in terms of metamodels...
متن کاملBuilding a Dependency-Based Grammar for Parsing Informal Mathematical Discourse
Discourse in formal domains, such as mathematics, is characterized by a mixture of telegraphic natural language and embedded formal expressions. Little is known about the suitability of input analysis methods for mathematical discourse in a dialog setting, due to the lack of empirical data. In this paper, we report on the development of a dependency-based lexicalist grammar for parsing input in...

متن کاملA unified language processing methodology
This paper discusses a mathematical concept of language that models both artificial and natural languages and thus provides a framework for a unified language processing methodology. This concept of a language is regarded as a communication tool that allows language users to develop knowledges, while interacting with their universe of discourse, and to communicate with each other, while exchang...
