Language processing engages large-scale functional networks in both hemispheres. Although it is widely accepted that left perisylvian regions have a key role in supporting complex grammatical computations, patient data suggest that some aspects of grammatical processing could be supported bilaterally. We investigated the distribution and the nature of grammatical computations across language pr...

abstract: the research at hand discusses about the notion of the theme in persian scientific and literary genres from the point of view of halliday’s systemic functional grammar (sfg) and explains and determines the similarities and differences of the two genres in persian language. in this research, after mentioning the obvious differences of the two genres from the point of view of theme type...

A reading difficulty measure can be described as a function or model that maps a text to a numerical value corresponding to a difficulty or grade level. We describe a measure of readability that uses a combination of lexical features and grammatical features that are derived from subtrees of syntactic parses. We also tested statistical models for nominal, ordinal, and interval scales of measure...

Automatic grammatical error detection for Chinese has been a big challenge for NLP researchers. Due to the formal and strict grammar rules in Chinese, it is hard for foreign students to master Chinese. A computer-assisted learning tool which can automatically detect and correct Chinese grammatical errors is necessary for those foreign students. Some of the previous works have sought to identify...

■ A direct investigation into the grammatical abilities of Broca’s and Wernicke’s aphasics sought to obtain critical evidence for a revised model of the functional neuroanatomy of language. We examined aphasics’ ability to make grammaticality judgments on a set of theoretically selected, highly complex syntactic structures that involve, most prominently, ane violations of constraints on syntact...

This paper deals with an analytical approach to predict the nonlinear buckling behavior of functionally graded graphene-reinforced composite laminated cylindrical shells under axial compressive load surrounded by Pasternak’s elastic foundation in a thermal environment. Piece-wise functionally graded graphene-reinforced, composite layers are sorted with different types of graphene distribution. ...

This ERP study employed an N2pc paradigm to investigate possible functional interactions between mechanisms of visual spatial attention and grammatical gender processing. Previous studies showed that the N2pc, an attention-related ERP component, can be modulated by lexical-semantic variables. However, it remains to be seen whether the N2pc can be affected by grammatical features as well. To tes...

A direct investigation into the grammatical abilities of Broca's and Wernicke's aphasics sought to obtain critical evidence for a revised model of the functional neuroanatomy of language. We examined aphasics' ability to make grammaticality judgments on a set of theoretically selected, highly complex syntactic structures that involve, most prominently, fine violations of constraints on syntacti...

An archetypal meeting point for natural language processing and mathematics education is the realm of word problems [4, 14, 15], a realm in which mechanised mathematics assistants (MMA) are expected to play an ever more prominent role in the years to come. The following example, to which we will refer later on (last subsection of 3), is meant to illustrate in a concrete way the idea of a word p...
