Deriving Labels

چکیده
This paper builds on Hornstein’s (2005) proposal that Merge (Chomsky, 1995) can be split up into the more basic operations Concatenate and Label. This opens up the possibility that Concatenate applies without Label to generate flat structures, an option which Hornstein & Nunes (2005) explore for encoding adjuncts. The central claim is that Label is not needed as a syntactic primitive if a long distance dependency formation operation is added, which is shown to be necessary on independent grounds. Concretely, the only means of communication between lexical items is the Unambiguous Paths Strategy (UPS), defined in terms of Unambiguous Paths configurations (Kayne, 1981). Labelling is no axiomatic operation of the system but is triggered by the need to check uninterpretable features. The taxonomy between arguments and adjuncts is thus reduced to the presence or absence of uninterpretable features. Binary branching for arguments follows, while no such requirement holds for

Automatically Deriving Tectogrammatical Labels from Other Resources: A Comparison of Semantic Labels Across Frameworks
Local semantic labels are relevant to the verb meaning in question, while global semantic labels are relevant across different verbs and verb meanings. We show that global semantic labels from different frameworks are not necessarily compatible and argue that, therefore, corpora should be annotated with local semantic labels and that global semantic labels should then be automatically annotated...
متن کاملOn Flat Polyhedra deriving from Alexandrov's Theorem
We show that there is a straightforward algorithm to determine if the polyhedron guaranteed to exist by Alexandrov’s gluing theorem is a degenerate flat polyhedron, and to reconstruct it from the gluing instructions. The algorithm runs in O(n) time for polygons whose gluings are specified by n labels.
متن کاملImplementation and Performance Analysis of Stochastic Flow Generation for IP/ATM-LSR over a Random Network
The combination of ATM label switched routing with IP packet forwarding is a rapidly growing technology. A fundamental problem is defining an algorithm to generate ATM labels which facilitates IP packet flow through the network. The number of labels should be minimized while maximizing the effectiveness of the flow topology. Just as important though, the algorithm should be robust, easy to impl...
متن کاملExploiting Associations between Class Labels in Multi-label Classification
Multi-label classification has many applications in the text categorization, biology and medical diagnosis, in which multiple class labels can be assigned to each training instance simultaneously. As it is often the case that there are relationships between the labels, extracting the existing relationships between the labels and taking advantage of them during the training or prediction phases ...
متن کاملDeveloping and Evaluating a Probabilistic LR Parser of Part-of-Speech and Punctuation Labels
We describe an approach to robust domain-independent syntactic parsing of unrestricted naturally-occurring (English) input. The technique involves parsing sequences of part-ofspeech and punctuation labels using a unification-based grammar coupled with a probabilistic LR parser. We describe the coverage of several corpora using this grammar and report the results of a parsing experiment using pr...
متن کاملStructural Equation Modeling in Awareness and Attitude of Consumers Toward Food Labels
Background and purpose: Labelling is a communication tool between the manufacturer/ distributor and customer which includes all optional and mandatory information about a product. Awareness and education are the primary steps in forming a positive attitude toward food labels. The purpose of this study was structural equation modeling in awareness and attitude of consumers about food labels in S...
