Derivational Parallelism and Ellipsis Parallelism
A central topic in work on ellipsis is the parallelism between missing VPs and their antecedents. There is evidence that parallelism is conditioned both syntactically and semantically. This has resulted in complex hybrid principles that regulate both syntactic structures and their interpretations (e.g., Fox 1995, 2000). We present an alternative, unified account based on parallelism of semantic...
متن کاملCartographic Data Structures
Efficient and flexible data structures are important to the development of computer mapping. Most current data banks are characterized by 1) structures which' are convenient at the input stage rather than at the stages of use within computer programs, 2) separate and uncoordinated files for different types of geographic feahires, and 3) a lack of information about neighboring entities. The term...
متن کاملGenerating Ellipsis Using Discourse Structures
This article describes an effort to generate elliptic sentences, using Dependency Trees connected by Discourse Relations as input. We contend that the process of syntactic aggregation should be performed in the Surface Realization stage of the language generation process, and that Dependency Trees with Rhetorical Relations are excellent input for a generation system that has to generate ellipsi...
متن کاملFinding Analogous Structures in Cartographic Data
In this paper we describe the application of analogical structure matching techniques to the domain of Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Automatic categorisation of map data into roads, buildings etc. is currently based on isolated objects. We describe how identifying analogous clusters of objects can categorise ambiguous polygons by introducing context into the categorisation process. We d...
متن کاملNorwegian Object Shift as IP-internal topicalization
In this paper we discuss the phenomenon of Object Shift in Norwegian, and we show that this operation is more complex and discourse related than what has traditionally been assumed. We argue that Object Shift cannot be accounted for in a purely prosodic approach. Rather, we demonstrate that a common denominator for all objects undergoing Object Shift is that they are topics. We thus propose tha...
