While much work has been done to inform Hierarchical Phrase-Based SMT (Chiang, 2005) models linguistically, the adjunct/argument distinction has generally not been exploited for these models. But as Shieber (2007) points out, capturing this distinction allows to abstract over ‘intervening’ adjuncts, and is thus relevant for (machine) translation in general. We contribute an adjunction-driven ap...

Quantization of the time symmetric system of interacting strings requires that gravity, just as electromagnetism in Wheeler-Feynman’s time symmetric electrodynamics, also be an “adjunct field” instead of an independent entity. The “adjunct gravitational field” emerges, at a scale large compared to that ot the strings, as a “statistic” that summarizes how the string positions in the underlying s...
