چکیده

We present an approach for learning part-of-speech distinctions by induction over the lexicon of the Cyc knowledge base. This produces good results (74.6%) using a decision tree that incorporates both semantic features and syntactic features. Accurate results (90.5%) are achieved for the special case of deciding whether lexical mappings should use count noun or mass noun headwords. Comparable results are also obtained using OpenCyc, the publicly available version of Cyc.

Inferring parts of speech for lexical mappings via the Cyc KB

We present an automatic approach to learning criteria for classifying the parts-of-speech used in lexical mappings. This will further automate our knowledge acquisition system for non-technical users. The criteria for the speech parts are based on the types of the denoted terms along with morphological and corpus-based clues. Associations among these and the parts-of-speech are learned using th...

Lexicalization vs. Vocalization: A Cross-Linguistic Study of Emphasis in English and Persian

Language is a system of verbal elements that makes communication of meaningspossible in the manners the users intend by employing certain linguistic deviceswhich are partly language-specific. Once communicating cross-linguistically, thereis always a risk of negative transfer of techniques or processes from the firstlanguage (L1) to the foreign language (L2). The current study investigates the“e...

مدل میکروسکوپی دوگوشی مبتنی بر فیلتر بانک مدولاسیون برای پیش گویی قابلیت فهم گفتار در افراد دارای شنوایی عادی

In this study, a binaural microscopic model for the prediction of speech intelligibility based on the modulation filter bank is introduced. So far, the spectral criteria such as the STI and SII or other analytical methods have been used in the binaural models to determine the binaural intelligibility. In the proposed model, unlike all models of binaural intelligibility prediction, an automatic ...

Improving part-of-speech tagging using lexicalized HMMs

We introduce a simple method to build Lexicalized Hidden Markov Models (L-HMMs) for improving the precision of part-of-speech tagging. This technique enriches the contextual Language Model taking into account a set of selected words empirically obtained. The evaluation was conducted with different lexicalization criteria on the Penn Treebank corpus using the TnT tagger. This lexicalization obta...
