The difficulty of acquiring case adaptation knowledge is a classic problem for case-based reasoning (CBR). One method for addressing this problem is to use the cases in the case base as data from which to learn adaptation rules. For numeric prediction tasks, adaptation rules have been successfully learned from the case base by using the case difference heuristic, which generates rules based on ...

The current paper argues that the phenomenon in Japanese that case phrases occur without their head verb before the finite complementizer would falsify the HPSG valence/content analysis, for example, in Sag 1997, Pollard and Sag 1994, if no phantom relation corresponding to a verb is used in the syntax or semantics. The HPSG valence/content analysis is that the content of a case phrase structur...

Example-based machine translation was first proposed by the author at the International NATO Symposium on Artificial and Human Intelligence held in Lyon, France, October, 1981, and the paper was included in the book: Artificial and Human Intelligence, NorthHolland, 1984 [1]. In this paper I discussed the followings in the context of comparing example based translation with ordinary machine tran...
