In this position paper we discuss some of the experiences we made in describing lexical data using representation formalisms that are compatible for the publication of such data in the Linked Data framework. While we see a huge potential in the emerging Linguistic Linked Open Data, also supporting the publication of less-resourced language data on the same platform as for mainstream languages, ...

Multimodel approaches are widely used with linear submodels, but border areas around submodels are problematic. Special cases of fuzzy linguistic equation models, which can be understood as linguistic Takagi-Sugeno (LTS) type fuzzy models, can be used to solve these problems in many cases. These models use a special nonlinear scaling approach for both inputs and outputs. The LTS models are robu...

We present a new probabilistic decision making model by using the 2-tuple linguistic representation approach. We introduce the 2tuple linguistic probabilistic ordered weighted averaging (2T-LPOWA) operator. We study some of its particular cases including the 2-tuple linguistic probabilistic aggregation and the 2tuple linguistic arithmetic OWA operator. We show an application of the new approach...

The recognition of Hindi Characters is of two types, one is simple characters recognition that comprises of consonants and vowels and second is compound characters recognition. The compound characters are those which are formed by joining of two or more consonants. So the recognition of compound characters is more difficult in comparison to that of simple characters due to their structure. This...

objectives: language development is often very slower in hearing impaired children compared with their normal peers. hearing impairment during childhood affects all aspects of speech production and language acquisition. it seems that hearing impaired people suffer from language and speech impairments such as production of complex linguistic structures. the purpose of this study is to determine ...

Two general principles of sexual differentiation emerge from previous sociolinguistic studies: that men use a higher frequency of nonstandard forms than women in stable situations, and that women are generally the innovators in linguistic change. It is not clear whether these two tendencies can be unified, or how differences between the sexes can account for the observed patterns of linguistic ...

In this paper some algebraic structures for linguistic fuzzy models are defined for the first time. By definition linguistic fuzzy norm, stability of these systems can be considered. Two methods (normed-based & graphical-based) for stability analysis of linguist fuzzy systems will be presented. At the follow a new simple method for linguistic fuzzy numbers calculations is defined. At the end tw...

Developing a robust Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) system for children is a challenging task because of increased variability in acoustic and linguistic correlates as function of young age. The acoustic variability is mainly due to the developmental changes associated with vocal tract growth. On the linguistic side, the variability is associated with limited knowledge of vocabulary, pronunc...
