Empirical Investigation of German Word Derivation with the Aid of a Computer
نویسنده
چکیده
l. Intruductory remarks and abstract The contribution reports results from about four years of research about German word derivation. The aim of the project is twofold: to find out facts about word derivation, especially about the productivity of "open" derivation patterns, and to test the utility of the computer as a tool in linguistic research of this type, the latter being planned as a demonstration for German traditionally minded philologists rather than for the international linguistic community with ample computational experience, l) In this paper, I will neither deal with formal aspects (formalisation) of the grammar used nor with programming, but only with linguistic and data-oriented aspects in the following order: ±erminology and linguistic notions; source of data; homography and derivation by "zero-affix"; derivation by affixation; further research.

Predictability of Distributional Semantics in Derivational Word Formation
Compositional distributional semantic models (CDSMs) have successfully been applied to the task of predicting the meaning of a range of linguistic constructions. Their performance on semicompositional word formation process of (morphological) derivation, however, has been extremely variable, with no large-scale empirical investigation to date. This paper fills that gap, performing an analysis o...

متن کاملSherwood’s Plot: Fundamental or Empirical?
There are several examples of heuristic rules first proposed from empirical observation, which eventually earned physicochemical validity after the fundamental derivation of a posteriori. This may be the case of Sherwood’s plot – for which a sound rationalization from first principles, entailing enthalpy and mass balances, is provided here; it applies to (fine) chemicals undergoing concentr...
متن کاملBayesian perspective over time
Thomas Bayes, the founder of Bayesian vision, entered the University of Edinburgh in 1719 to study logic and theology. Returning in 1722, he worked with his father in a small church. He also was a mathematician and in 1740 he made a novel discovery which he never published, but his friend Richard Price found it in his notes after his death in 1761, reedited it and published it. But until L...

The investigation of the anticancer drugs will be important because of the proliferation ofcancer. We want to take steps to improve public health. The combination of two carbon nanotubes (singlewall nanotube and multi-wall nanotube) and Sup90-Dota (an anticancer drug) was investigated basedon Molecular Mechanic and Semi-Empirical methods. Our goal is to investigate the transfe...
