We developed an approach to predict the proficiency level of Estonian language learners based on the CEFR guidelines. We performed learner classification by studying morphosyntactic variation and lexical richness in texts produced by learners of Estonian as a second language. We show that our features which exploit the rich morphology of Estonian by focusing on the nominal case and verbal mood ...

This paper presents an exponential model for translation into highly inflected languages which can be scaled to very large datasets. As in other recent proposals, it predicts targetside phrases and can be conditioned on sourceside context. However, crucially for the task of modeling morphological generalizations, it estimates feature parameters from the entire training set rather than as a coll...

In this article, the q-analogues of the linear relations of non-strict multiple zeta values called “the sum formula” and “the cyclic sum formula” are established.

We consider the class of two-person zero-sum allocation games known as Captain Lotto games (Hart 2014). These are Colonel Blotto type games in which the players have capacity constraints. We consider the game with non-strict constraints, and with strict constraints. We show in most cases that when optimal strategies exist, they are necessarily unique. When they don’t exist, we characterize the ...

Jarik Nešetřil suggested to the first author the investigation of notions of homogeneity for relational structures, where “isomorphism” is replaced by “homomorphism” in the definition. Here we look in detail at what happens for posets. For the strict order, all five generalisations of homogeneity coincide, and we give a characterisation of the countable structures that arise. For the non-strict...

The complex morphological structure of the left ventricular endocardial surface and its relation to the severity of arterial stenosis has not yet been thoroughly investigated due to the limitations of conventional imaging techniques. By exploiting the recent developments in Multirow-Detector Computed Tomography (MDCT) scanner technology, the complex endocardial surface morphology of the left ve...

Gignac and Zajenkowski (2020) find that “the degree to which people mispredicted their objectively measured intelligence was equal across the whole spectrum of intelligence”. This Comment shows finding homoscedasticity is likely result a recoding choice by experimenters does not in fact indicate Dunning-Kruger Effect mere statistical artifact. Specifically, recoded test subjects' responses ques...
