Implicational Scaling of Reading Comprehension Construct: Is it Deterministic or Probabilistic?
In English as a Second Language Teaching and Testing situations, it is common to infer about learners’ reading ability based on his or her total score on a reading test. This assumes the unidimensional and reproducible nature of reading items. However, few researches have been conducted to probe the issue through psychometric analyses. In the present study, the IELTS exemplar module C (1994) wa...
متن کاملIntroduction to Exemplar-Based Models of Language Acquisition and Use
Exemplar-based models have become part and parcel of linguistics: they are used in phonetics and phonology (Johnson 1997; Pierrehumbert 2001), in morphology (Skousen 1989; Krott et al. 2002), syntax (Bod 1998; Tomasello 2003; Reali and Christiansen, in press) and semantics (Batali 2002). The appeal of exemplar models is that they can explain phenomena that are problematic for rule-based models....
متن کاملImproving Exemplar-based Image Completion methods using Selecting the Optimal Patch
Image completion is one of the subjects in image and video processing which deals with restoration of and filling in damaged regions of images using correct regions. Exemplar-based image completion methods give more pleasant results than pixel-based approaches. In this paper, a new algorithm is proposed to find the most suitable patch in order to fill in the damaged parts. This patch selection ...
متن کاملExemplar-Based Syntax: How to Get Productivity from Examples
Exemplar-based models of language propose that human language production and understanding operate with a store of concrete linguistic experiences rather than with abstract linguistic rules. While exemplarbased models are well acknowledged in areas like phonology and morphology, common wisdom has it that they are intrinsically flawed for syntax where infinite generative capacity is needed. This...
متن کاملModeling Typicality: Extending the Prototype View
In this study we re-evaluated earlier findings that natural language categories are represented by an exemplar representation rather than by a prototype representation. Using a restricted prototype model, an exemplar model and a “flying” prototype model, we predicted typicality ratings for 11 natural language categories from 2 semantic domains, animals and artifacts. We showed that exemplar mod...
