Syntax and Semantics of Music: Preface

Neural substrates of processing syntax and semantics in music.

Growing evidence indicates that syntax and semantics are basic aspects of music. After the onset of a chord, initial music-syntactic processing can be observed at about 150-400 ms and processing of musical semantics at about 300-500 ms. Processing of musical syntax activates inferior frontolateral cortex, ventrolateral premotor cortex and presumably the anterior part of the superior temporal gy...

A Computational Approach to the Syntax and Semantics of Music

Reverse Engineering of Network Software Binary Codes for Identification of Syntax and Semantics of Protocol Messages

Reverse engineering of network applications especially from the security point of view is of high importance and interest. Many network applications use proprietary protocols which specifications are not publicly available. Reverse engineering of such applications could provide us with vital information to understand their embedded unknown protocols. This could facilitate many tasks including d...

Integrating Syntax and Semantics

Well-known examples such as Bar-Hillel's (1960) "The box is in the pen" illustrate that extensive semantic analysis is necessary to resolve ambiguities that must be resolved in machine translation. If one accepts the premise that semantics should be added to the analysis techniques used in machine translation, what is the way in which it should be added? This paper will argue for an integrated ...

Equivariant Syntax and Semantics

syntax is not sufficiently abstract Parse trees take no account of variable binding. ∫ x 0 (∫ y 1 xy dx )
