Structurally-defined alternatives
Scalar implicatures depend on alternatives in order to avoid the symmetry problem. I argue for a structure-sensitive characterization of these alternatives: the alternatives for a structure are all those structures that are at most as complex as the original one. There have been claims in the literature that complexity is irrelevant for implicatures and that the relevant condition is the semant...
متن کاملAlternatives to Single-member Plurality Districts: Legal and Empirical Issues*
While single-member districting (smd) is the most common form of representation in the U.S., apportionment schemes at the state and local level often make use of multimember districts (Klain 1955; Jewell 1971), the polar type of which is, of course, the at-Iarge election; •'̂ and in one state (New York) weighted voting is the most common of the various systems in use for county government.^ In t...
متن کاملStructurally De ned Alternatives and Lexicalizations of XOR
In his recent paper on the symmetry problem Roni Katzir argues that “the only relevant factor” for the calculation of any Quantity implicature “is structure” (, ). My rst aim here is to refute Katzir by providing three examples that show that structural complexity is irrelevant to the calculation of some Quantity implicatures. My second aim is to cast doubt on the advisability of assumin...
متن کاملLearning via Inference over Structurally Constrained Output
We experimentally analyze learning structured output in a discriminative framework where values of the output variables are estimated by local classifiers. In this framework, complex dependencies among the output variables are captured by constraints that dictate how global labels can be inferred. We compare two strategies, learning plus inference and inference based training, by observing thei...
متن کاملVariability of structurally constrained and unconstrained functional connectivity in schizophrenia
Spatial variation in connectivity is an integral aspect of the brain's architecture. In the absence of this variability, the brain may act as a single homogenous entity without regional specialization. In this study, we investigate the variability in functional links categorized on the basis of the presence of direct structural paths (primary) or indirect paths mediated by one (secondary) or mo...
