I specify a typology for the extreme of inflectional morphology, namely suppletion (as in go went). This is an unusual enterprise within typology, and it requires a ‘canonical’ approach. That is, I define the canonical or best instance, through a set of converging criteria, and use this point in theoretical space to locate the various occurring types. Thus the criteria establish the dimensions ...

Chinese and Korean belong to different language families in terms of word-order and morphological typology. Chinese is an SVO and morphologically poor language while Korean is an SOV and morphologically rich one. In Chinese-to-Korean SMT systems, systematic differences between the verbal systems of the two languages make the generation of Korean verbal phrases difficult. To resolve the difficul...

The morphological, structural and content elements that form an invariant model of innovative multifunctional typology “house-yard” are considered. continuity this in relation to the historical urban neighborhood development as a prototype is established. possibility creating new typology, focused on modern methods construction actualization characteristics sustainable environment substantiated

We lay out a computational model for syntactic category acquisition which combines psychologically plausible concepts from minimally supervised part-of-speech tagging applications with simple distributional statistics. The model assumes a small set of seed words (Haghighi & Klein 2006), an approach with motivation in Pinker (1984)'s semantic bootstrapping hypothesis, and iteratively constructs ...

In this paper we report our work on the system of grammatemes (mostly semantically-oriented counterparts of morphological categories such as number, degree of comparison, or tense), the concept of which was introduced in Functional Generative Description, and is now further elaborated in the context of Prague Dependency Treebank 2.0. We present also a new hierarchical typology of tectogrammatic...

1. INTRODUCTION. Sinhala, an Indo-Aryan language spoken in Sri Lanka by approximately 13 million people, has a complicated system of nominal morphology. Number marking on nouns in the nominative case is based on a series of twelve noun classes partially determined by animacy. The marking of definiteness and case on nouns is simpler in some respects because the shape of these markers are determi...

Words denoting non-causative and causative change of state (COS) predicates often are morphologically related to words denoting the related state predicates, though the relationship sometimes differs for different types of states. For the state of ‘brokeness’, for example, in English the word denoting the state in (1c) is derived from the words denoting the change of state. In contrast, the wor...

Health systems around the globe implement integrated care interventions to address the Triple Aim of simultaneously improving population health, patient experiences and cost-efficiency. However, the underlying definitions and conceptualisations of integrated care often differ considerably, which makes uniform measurement and comparison difficult. Rather than agreeing on one definition of integr...
