The tonal inflection of verbs the Amuzgo language San Pedro Amuzgos (Oto-Manguean, Mexico) displays a great degree allomorphy. When faced with allomorphy this sort, inflectional class model often reveals an internal logic in system, but case organizing into classes results instead system which is seemingly chaotic, and somewhat impractical for descriptive purposes.

This paper outlines a novel approach for modelling semantic relationships within medical documents. Medical terminologies contain a rich source of semantic information critical to a number of techniques in medical informatics, including medical information retrieval. Recent research suggests that corpus-driven approaches are effective at automatically capturing semantic similarities between med...

Evaluation of word space models is usually local in the sense that it only considers words that are deemed very similar by the model. We propose a global evaluation scheme based on clustering of the words. A clustering of high quality in an external evaluation against a semantic resource, such as a dictionary of synonyms, indicates a word space model of high quality. We use Random Indexing to c...

Having traced, in Part One, the role of spatial and temporal image schemata in the models of such transpersonal precursors as Fechner, James, Myers, and Jung, this second part considers the further e...
