Stemmers have many applications in natural language processing and some fields such as information retrieval. Many algorithms have been proposed for stemming. In this paper, we propose a new algorithm for Persian language. Our algorithm is a bottom up algorithm that is capable to reorganize without changing the implementation. Our experiments show that the proposed algorithm has a suitable resu...

the present study was an attempt to investigate the acquisition of negationproperties by persian monolingual and kurdish-persian bilingual learners of englishacross different levels of language proficiency and within a generative framework.generative models are generally concerned with issues such as universal grammar(ug), language transfer, and morphological variability in nonprimary languaged...

one of the main objectives of teaching persian to non-native language learners is helping them to communicate with persian speakers in a variety of personal and professional situations in their daily life. to investigate the issues of verbal communication, we are obliged to pay attention to the different language functions. to do this, the present research aims to study the amount of attention ...

The surge of pre-trained language models has begun a new era in the field Natural Language Processing (NLP) by allowing us to build powerful models. Among these models, Transformer-based such as BERT have become increasingly popular due their state-of-the-art performance. However, are usually focused on English, leaving other languages multilingual with limited resources. This paper proposes mo...

Comprehension is closely related not only to the knowledge of words and syntax, but also the pragmatic concerns of the discourse. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the impact of the intonational clues selection of Iranian teenagers’ and young adults’ Persian listening comprehension ability on their English learning as a second language. According to Buck (2003), in listening c...

We describe evaluation experiments conducted by submitting retrieval runs for the monolingual German, French, English and Persian (Farsi) information retrieval tasks of the Ad Hoc Track of the Cross-Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) 2009. In the ad hoc retrieval tasks, the system was given 50 natural language queries, and the goal was to find all of the relevant records or documents (with high p...
