deducing what a paper is about, titles are considered as the most important determinant of how many people will read the article. therefore, studying the use of different syntactic structures and their rhetorical functions in titles is of great significance. the current study was set to investigate these structures used in research article titles in three disciplines of applied linguistics, den...

logical form or covert syntax is a syntactic level introduced in recent generative approaches. using the ideas of first-order predicate logic, it interprets the strings whose elements cannot move in s–structure, because an element moves if it does not acquire its necessary scope. but unlike the predicate logic, logical form is based on syntactic principles and rules. therefore, logical form is ...

“Deep-syntactic” dependency structures bridge the gap between the surface-syntactic structures as produced by state-of-the-art dependency parsers and semantic logical forms in that they abstract away from surfacesyntactic idiosyncrasies, but still keep the linguistic structure of a sentence. They have thus a great potential for such downstream applications as machine translation and summarizati...

The majority of the Malaysian people consider Patient Information Leaflets (PILs) their medications difficult to read and understand because linguistic complexity. Clear comprehensive PILs will help users/readers gain benefits these PILs. Poor complex cause lack adherence being used. current study aims first, investigate use command, passive voice negation currently used in PILs, frequent occur...

Numerical information plays an important role in various fields such as scientific, financial, social, statistics, and news. Most prior studies adopt unsupervised methods by designing complex handcrafted pattern-matching rules to extract numerical information, which can be difficult scale the open domain. Other supervised require extra time, cost, knowledge design, understand, annotate training...

Over the past 15 years, both linguists and psycholinguists have shown a growing interest in the idea that syntactic structures can carry meanings that are independent of the meanings of specific words. This article considers how this idea relates to traditional notions of compositionality in generative grammar, and examines two modern theories that, although based on different starting assumpti...

Analysis of language provides important insights into the underlying psychological properties of individuals and groups. While the majority of language analysis work in psychology has focused on semantics, psychological information is encoded not just in what people say, but how they say it. In the current work, we propose Conversation Level Syntax Similarity Metric-Group Representations (CASSI...
