Previous work [Bowman et al., 2016] has shown that variational autoencoders (VAEs) can create distributed representations of natural language that capture different linguistic levels such as syntax, semantics, and style in a holistic manner. I investigate to what extent VAEs, when trained on different languages, result in comparable representations. To this end, I train VAEs for English and Fre...

This paper introduces a preliminary work on Hindi causative verbs: their classification, a linguistic model for their classification and their verb frames. The main objective of this work is to come up with a classification of the Hindi causative verbs. In the classification we show how different types of Hindi verbs have different types of causative forms. It will be a linguistic resource for ...

in recent years, formal methods have been used as an important tool forperformance evaluation and verification of a wide range of systems. in the viewpoints of engineers and practitioners, however, there are still some major difficultiesin using formal methods. in this paper, we introduce a new formal modelinglanguage to fill the gaps between object-oriented programming languages (oopls)used by...

The correspondence and restriction based approach to machine translation of Kaplan et al (1989) is expanded in Kaplan and Wedekind (1993) to include a treatment of complex predicates. Complex predicates pose the kind of problem usually described under \head-switching" because their syntax and semantics are non-isomorphic. Ka-plan and Wedekind's (1993) solution involves a restriction operator in...

Semantic feedback is an important source of information that a parser could use to deal with local ambiguities in syntax. However, it is difficult to devise a systematic communication mechanism for interactive syntax and semantics. In this article, I propose a variant of left-corner parsing to define the points at which syntax and semantics should interact, an account of grammatical relations a...

How to determine, is a proposed model transformation correct, or not? In general, the answer may depend on the model semantics. Of course, a model transformation is “correct”, if we can extend it to a “correct” instance data transformation. Where should model semantics be defined? Assume, model syntax and semantics are defined in the same meta-model. Then, how to separate syntax from semantics?...

the comparison between the views of ibne malek, in alfye, and his son, ibn al-nazem, in sharh ibn al-nazem ‘ala alfiye ibn malek, is one of the most important morphological and grammatical issues in the arabic grammer. alfye (ألفیة ابن مالک) is an educational poetry in arabic grammar that has been versed by ibne malek in the 13th century. at least 43 explanations have been written on this work....
