We introduce the Latin analysis system Lassy, a slim system for analyzing Latin sentences. Tools for interacting with a database for morphological features are integrated as well as an interface for deening and applying a grammar database. We also give a small outline of the grammar model used in Lassy which is a pragmatic integration of linguistic theories known from both dependency and phrase...

This paper provides an analysis of the representation of various grammatical phenomena in both constituency structure and dependency structure (hereafter c-structure and d-structure), including agreement, case marking, and word order in transitive sentences, as well as three theoretical constructs, and the interface between the form of a sentence and its meaning. There is a crucial structural r...

7 International Conference on Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar, Berkeley 22 July 2000 Aims: 1⁄2 Supporting the ARG-ST / DEPS / VALENCE distinction 1⁄2 Working towards a theory of diathesis and diathetic paradigmatic relations in HPSG 1⁄2 Reconsidering phenomena that are sensitive to subject prominence 1⁄2 Possibilities of making compatible the insightful HPSG analyses of binding (Manning an...

As Koizumi (2000) and Fukui and Sakai (2006) observe, however, “multiple long-distance scrambling” improves significantly if the scrambled element forms an intonational phrase, though we rather argue that the relevant phonological phrase is not an intonational phrase but a major phrase (aka “intermediate phrase”). The boundary of a major phrase is often marked by a pause or glottalization. The ...

A typical phrase-based machine translation (PBMT) system uses phrase pairs extracted from word-aligned parallel corpora. All phrase pairs that are consistent with word alignments are collected. The resulting phrase table is very large and includes many non-syntactic phrases which may not be necessary. We propose to filter the phrase table based on source language syntactic constraints. Rather t...

The Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar project (HPSG) is an English language database query system under development at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories. Unlike other product-oriented efforts in the natural language understanding field, the HPSG system was designed and implemented by linguists on the basis of recent theoretical developments. But, unlike other implementations of linguistic theorie...

Indonesian as a mother tongue has characteristics that distinguish it from Arabic. The existing differences cause difficulties in learning This study aims to conduct contrastive analysis of adjective phrases between and Arabic explain the implications results is library research on literature by collecting data phrase examples using listening note-taking method. this show similarities phrases. ...

In this paper, we present a new phrase break detection architecture that integrates proba-bilistic approach with rule-based error correction. The architecture consists of a probabilis-tic phrase break detector and a transformational rule-based post error corrector. The probabilistic method alone usually suuers from performance degradation due to inherent data sparseness problems. So we adopted ...

One major feature of the prosody of Mandarin Chinese speech flow is prosodic phrase grouping [1, 2, and 3]. Phrasal and sentential intonations are governed by a prosody framework that structurally group phrases into a larger/longer and identifiable unit. An overall prosody pattern of such phrase grouping with prosodic specifications is superimposed on phrase group. In turn, individual phrasal i...

This paper proposes a Local Maximum Phrase Detection (LMPD) method for the analysis of phrasing strategies in expressive performances. The LMPD method systematically extracts a quantitative representation of phrasing strategy by equating the occurrence of a local maximum in the loudness curve with the occurrence of a phrase or sub-phrase. We further define mathematical descriptors for phrase st...
