This paper describes Parallel Grammatical Evolution (PGE) that can be together with clustering used for a improvement of the throughput of computer networks. To increase the efficiency of Grammatical Evolution (GE) the influence of backward processing was tested. The significance of backward coding (BC) and the comparison with standard coding of GEs is presented. BC can speed up Grammatical Evo...

The Markovian nature follows readily from a mechanistic view, where complete knowledge of a system and sufficient computational resources will allow us to determine the state of the system – or distribution over possible states for stochastic systems – at any given point in the future. Markovian need not progress in time, in fact, for many bioinformatics applications the progression will be in ...

In interpreting a sentence, listeners rely on a variety of linguistic cues to assign grammatical roles such as agent and patient. In normal sentence comprehension these cues converge to enable sentence interpretation, yet when the cues are placed in competttion they are differentially used by speakers. The present study investigated the relative strength of three cues to agenthood word order, n...

6 This paper critically explores the question of what it means for a 7 construction to be grammatical. The paper engages with some of the 8 observations made in the grammaticalisation literature that elements in 9 grammatical constructions undergo morphologization, and aims to show 10 that grammatical status and morphologization need not be aligned. A 11 number of parameters along which the gra...

In an artificial grammar learning (AGL) experiment, participants were trained with instances of one grammatical structure before completing a test phase in which they were required to discriminate grammatical from randomly created strings. Importantly, the underlying structure used to generate test strings was different from that used to generate the training strings. Despite the fact that gram...

 Second language  learners often develop grammatical competence in the absence of concomitant pragmatic competence (Kasper & Roever, 2005) and the exact nature of the relationship between the two competences is still indistinct and in need of inquiries ( Bardovi-Harlig, 1999; Khatib & Ahmadisafa, 2011). This study is a partial attempt to address the lacuna and aims to see if any relationship ca...

abstractthis study examined the effect of two types of feedback, post-text as a written feedback and recast as an oral one on written grammatical accuracy of iranian intermediate efl learners. to this end, 45 intermediate students who were studying at ideal language institute in sari were selected based on their performance on the nelson proficiency test, and then divided into three groups (two...
