Collocation has always been an important issue in language research, especially in Chinese language researches. Chinese is an isolated language, which lacks morphological changes.Establishing a relatively complete dictionary of Chinese collocation will be a great contribution to Chinese study and research. Collocation plays a significant supporting role in many fields of NLP, such as informatio...

We discuss a new approach to represent fractional operators by Sinc approximation using convolution integrals. A spin off of the convolution representation is an effective inverse Laplace transform. Several examples demonstrate the application of the method to different practical problems.

The fully Sinc-Galerkin method is developed for a family of complex-valued partial differential equations with time-dependent boundary conditions. The Sinc-Galerkin discrete system is formulated and represented by a Kronecker product form of those equations. The numerical solution is efficiently calculated and the method exhibits an exponential convergence rate. Several examples, some with a re...

In our recent publications we have introduced the incomplete cosine expansion of the sinc function for efficient application in sampling [Abrarov & Quine, Appl. Math. Comput., 258 (2015) 425-435; Abrarov & Quine, J. Math. Research, 7 (2) (2015) 163-174]. Here we show that it can also be utilized as a flexible and efficient tool in mathematical analysis. In particular, an application of the inco...

The Sinc approximation is a function approximation formula that attains exponential convergence for rapidly decaying functions defined on the whole real axis. Even for other functions, the Sinc approximation still works accurately when combined with a proper variable transformation. The convergence rate has been analyzed for typical cases including finite, semi-infinite, and infinite intervals....

The Sinc quadrature and the Sinc indefinite integration are approximation formulas for definite integration and indefinite integration, respectively, which can be applied on any interval by using an appropriate variable transformation. Their convergence rates have been analyzed for typical cases including finite, semi-infinite, and infinite intervals. In addition, for verified automatic integra...

A fast multilevel algorithm (MuST) for evaluating an n-sample sinc interpolant at mn points is presented. For uniform grids, its complexity is 25mn log(1/δ) flops for the sinc kernel and 75mn log(1/δ) for the sincd kernel, where δ is the target evaluation accuracy. MuST is faster than FFTand FMM-based evaluations for large n and/or for large δ. It is also applicable to non-uniform grids and to ...

Collocation is a popular method in geodesy for combining heterogeneous data of different kind. It comprises adjustment, interpolation and extrapolation as special cases. Current methods of collocation apply however only if the trend parameters are real valued. In the present contribution we will generalize the theory of collocation by permitting the trend parameters to be integer valued. It wil...

This paper presents the design and construction of an annotated Chinese collocation bank as the resource to support systematic research on Chinese collocations. With the help of computational tools, the bi-gram and n-gram collocations corresponding to 3,643 headwords are manually identified. Furthermore, annotations for bi-gram collocations include dependency relation, chunking relation and cla...
