This talk is concerned with using syntactic annotation of learner language and the corresponding target hypothesis to find structural acquisition difficulties in German as a foreign language. Using learner data for the study of acquisition patterns is based on the idea that learners do not produce random output but rather possess a consistent internal grammar (interlanguage; cf. [1] and many ot...

This publication introduces a state space exploration tool that is based on representing the model under verification as a piece of C++ code that obeys certain conventions. This approach facilitates experimenting with many kinds of modelling ideas. On the other hand, the use of stubborn sets and symmetries requires that either the modeller or a preprocessor tool analyses the model at a syntacti...

This paper focuses on selection techniques for best correction of misspelt words at the lexical level. Spelling errors are introduced by either cognitive or typographical mistakes. A robust spelling correction algorithm is needed to cover both cognitive and typographical errors. For the most effective spelling correction system, various strategies are considered in this paper: ranking heuristic...

The pitch-based input (humming, whistling, singing) in acoustic modality has already been studied in several projects. There is also a formal description of the pitch-based input which can be used by designers to define user control of an application. However, as we discuss in this paper, the formal description can contain semantic errors. The aim of this paper is to validate the formal descrip...

The effect of syntactic context on auditory word identification and on the ability to detect and correct syntactic errors in speech was examined in severely reading disabled children and in good and poor readers selected from the normal distribution of fourth graders. The poor readers were handicapped when correct reading required analysis of the sentence context. However, their phonological de...

Phrase-based translation models, with sequences of words (phrases) as translation units, achieve state-of-the-art translation performance. However, phrase reordering is a major challenge for this model. Recently, researchers have focused on utilizing syntax to improve phrase reordering. In adding syntactic knowledge into phrase reordering model, using handcrafted or probabilistic syntactic rule...

The main priority for university translation educators is to improve the quality and outcomes of translation courses. To achieve such a goal, the instructors are required to integrate learners' needs, identified with the help of a needs survey, into syllabus content. Accordingly, the present study was conducted to identify the Iranian English majors' difficulties in translating English texts si...
