The notion of fuzzy sets has proven useful in the context of control theory, pattern recognition, and medical diagnosis. However, it has also spawned the view that classical probability theory is unable to deal with uncertainties in natural language and machine learning, so that alternatives to probability are needed. One such alternative is what is known as “possibility theory.” Such alternati...

mulla sadra is among the scholars presented certain criteria and principles in understanding the significations of religion language.the collection of these criteria and principles indicates his view on the religion understanding.in this study,understanding about the criteria and principles of religion language from mulla sadra`s view has been studied in three main domains including: special fe...

Chomsky’s theory of syntax came after criticism of probabilistic associative models of word order in sentences. Immediate constituent structures are plausible but their description by generative grammars has met with difficulties. The type 2 (context-free) grammars account for constituent structure, but already trespass the mathematical capacity required by language, because they generate unnat...

human language, over its evolutionary history, has emerged as one of the fundamental defining characteristic of the modern man. however, this milestone evolutionary process through natural selection has not left any ’linguistic fossils’ that may enable us to trace back the actual course of development of language and its establishment in human societies. lacking analytical tools to fathom the cr...

Practical Implementation of a Dependently Typed Functional Programming Language Edwin C. Brady Types express a program’s meaning, and checking types ensures that a program has the intended meaning. In a dependently typed programming language types are predicated on values, leading to the possibility of expressing invariants of a program’s behaviour in its type. Dependent types allow us to give ...

In this thesis, we present analyses and algorithms for resolving a variety of cohesive phenomena in natural language, including VP-ellipsis, gapping, event reference, tense, and pronominal reference. Past work has attempted to explain the complicated behavior of these expressions with theories that operate within a single module of language processing. We argue that such approaches cannot be ma...

The cognitive neuroscience of language aims at revealing how linguistic information is represented and manipulated in the brain to enable communication meaningful behaviour. An important aspect underlying processes integration transformation across multiple systems. In order understand these processes, a detailed characterisation connectivity key. For most accurate connectivity, methods should ...

In this position paper, we present an interdisciplinary approach to patterns and pattern languages in HCI-design. Our work is grounded on a theoretical framework, tailored for use in early design stages. It incorporates ideas from pattern methodology, Gestalt theory and visual language. As an ideal final result in the field of human-computer interaction (HCI), our work intends to establish intu...
