Composite Event Structures and Complex Predicates

چکیده
RECENT STUDIES ON COMPLEX PREDICATES, SUCH AS BAKER’S (1988) THEORY OF INCORPORATION AND LI’S (1990) FEATURE PERCOLATION ACCOUNT, INVOLVE SYNTACTIC MANIPULATIONS BASED ON HEADED STRUCTURES. THIS PAPER PROPOSES A RADICALLY DIFFERENT APPROACH WHERE COMPLEX PREDICATE FORMATION IS RESOLVED MORPHOLEXICALLY WITH MAPPING BASED ON PROTOTYPICAL ARGUMENT TEMPLATES. OUR STUDY GIVES A MORE SATISFACTORY ACCOUNT OF COMPLEX PREDICALTES EPRESENTING COMPOSITE ( I.E. NON EMBEDDING ) EVENT STRUCTURES.

The Interlanguage of Persian Learners of Italian: a Focus on Complex Predicates
This paper aims at investigating the acquisition of Italian complex predicates by native speakers of Persian. Complex predication is not as pervasive a phenomenon in Italian as it is in Persian. Yet Italian native speakers use complex predicates productively; spontaneous data show that Persian learners of Italian seem to be perfectly aware of Italian complex predicates and use this familiar fea...
متن کاملShape Analysis for Composite Data Structures
We propose a shape analysis that adapts to some of the complex composite data structures found in industrial systems-level programs. Examples of such data structures include “cyclic doubly-linked lists of acyclic singly-linked lists”, “singly-linked lists of cyclic doublylinked lists with back-pointers to head nodes”, etc. The analysis introduces the use of generic higher-order inductive predic...
متن کاملDeformation Characteristics of Composite Structures
The composites provide design flexibility because many of them can be moulded into complex shapes. The carbon fibre-reinforced epoxy composites exhibit excellent fatigue tolerance and high specific strength and stiffness which have led to numerous advanced applications ranging from the military and civil aircraft structures to the consumer products. However, the modelling of the beams undergoin...
متن کاملHandling Uncertain Rules in Composite Event Systems
In recent years, there has been an increased need for active systems systems that are required to act automatically based on events, or changes in the environment. In many cases, the events to which the system should respond to, have to be inferred from other events based on complex temporal predicates. However, none of the existing composite event systems created to enable such inference can d...
متن کاملCanonicity Effect on Sentence Processing of Persian-speaking Broca’s Patients
Introduction: Fundamental notions of mapping hypothesis and canonicity were scrutinized in Persian-speaking aphasics. Methods: To this end, the performance of four age-, education-, and gender matched Persian-speaking Broca's patients and eight matched healthy controls in diverse complex structures were compared via the conduction of two tasks of syntactic comprehension and grammaticality jud...
