Experiments in investigating sound symbolism and onomatopoeia
The area of sound symbolism and onomatopoeia is an interesting area for studying the production and interpretation of neologisms in language. One question is whether neologisms are created haphazardly or governed by rules. Another question is how this can be studied. Of the approximately 60 000 words in the Swedish lexicon 1 500 have been judged to be sound symbolic (Abelin 1999). These were an...
متن کاملTinnitus: Some Sound Advice
There is an old music-hall joke that applies to timitus, an affliction suffered by many millions of people the world over. The joke: “I’ve got bells in my ears, so I went to the doctor.” “Did he do you any good’?” “Yes, I can hear them much better now.”1 The joke is not likely to bring belly laughs to tinnitus sufferers, but perhaps wry smiles. For no two people seem to be afflicted in the same...
متن کاملSome experiments in number theory
Following footsteps of Gauss, Euler, Riemann, Hurwitz, Smith, Hardy, Littlewood, Hedlund, Khinchin and Chebyshev, we visit some topics in elementary number theory. For matrices defined by Gaussian primes we observe a circular spectral law for the eigenvalues. We experiment then with various Goldbach conjectures for Gaussian primes, Eisenstein primes, Hurwitz primes or Octavian primes. These con...
متن کاملFrankenstein Classiiers: Some Experiments
We present some empirical results on the use of two methods for integrating diierent classiiers into a hybrid classiier that should perform better than each of its constituent classiiers. The main point of these methods is that instead of combining full classiiers, they combine pieces of them. One of the methods is based on ROC analysis; the other is based on augmenting the data with features d...
متن کاملSome Experiments with Undeenedness
We distinguish two kinds of undeenedness: undeenedness in existence versus undeenedness in information. We give several applications of the rst kind: a rst order formulation of the untyped lambda calculus and a Zermelo-Fraenkel style theory for partial functions which is equally powerful as ZF-Set Theory. We add the rst kind of unde-nedness to a typed lambda calculus, and show that identifying ...
