This paper might be described as an attempt to discuss a practical methodology based on Pedagogic Stylistic approach for the teaching of literature as subject in undergraduate /Post graduate classes in India. It is also significant that we need to examine how a stylistic approach for the teaching of literature is of particular value for the study of literature as a subject in India's ESL situat...

Most work on neural natural language generation (NNLG) focus on controlling the content of the generated text. We experiment with controlling several stylistic aspects of the generated text, in addition to its content. The method is based on conditioned RNN language model, where the desired content as well as the stylistic parameters serve as conditioning contexts. We demonstrate the approach o...

This paper a) examines the nature of creative thinking in musical improvisation, b) examines music teachers 'confidence in their inprovisation abilities and c) proposes a model for teaching stylistic improvisation. First, factor analysis of improvisations of college jazz singers indicates that divergent thinking, as exemplified through variety, originality and elaboration of musical ideas, is l...

Final Report: RESEARCH AREA 7.1:Exploring the Systematics of Controlling Quantum Phenomena Report Title This research is concerned with the theoretical and experimental control quantum dynamics phenomena. Advances include new algorithms to accelerate quantum control as well as provide physical insights into the controlled dynamics. The latter research includes the demonstration of a new protoco...

Stylistic animation and rendering approaches intentionally produce output that diverges from physical reality in order to enhance the quality of graphical output. In this paper, we discuss the domain of stylistic animation, with particular emphasis on techniques for stylising dynamics and motion synthesis. We present a survey of previous work and introduce some of the major issues in stylised a...

Introduction We are currently conducting systematic analyses of Japanese prime ministers’ Diet addresses after World War II. In addition to the analyses of the content of the addresses, stylistic analysis can be used to clarify the changing language usages of prime ministers and how these reflect their personal or individual styles. This study indicates that stylistic methods are useful for his...

The bifacially-flaked stemmed obsidian artifacts from Easter Island -known as mata’a -vary greatly in terms of the shape and form of their stems. The stem variability appears to be largely stylistic in nature as its variation does not affect the function of the tool and thus is free to change. Since performance is not a factor in structuring variation , patterns of similarity across stylistic c...

In this contribution, we present a computational stylistic study of the French classic literature texts based on a data-driven approach where discovering interesting linguistic patterns is done without any prior knowledge. We propose an objective interestingness measure to extract meaningful stylistic syntactic patterns from a given author’s work. Our hypothesis is based on the fact that the mo...
