Summary In what why can fiction help us craft and share ethnographic work when life is in flux the people with whom we live also have a hard time making “rational” sense of happening to them? This about love, quandary, rebirth set against deep crisis Venezuela—money has become worthless, families are shattered, mutual trust evaporated, jobs food scarce, everyone trying make living. The creative...

A morpho-syntactic tagger associates to each word of a corpus a label which recapitulates its morpho-syntatic properties in the text. In corpora from oral data, not only do we have to face the usual problem of multi-labels words, but also the more specific problems of disfluences (repetitions, ungrammatical constructions...), of non existing words and of the lack of punctuation marks [1]. First...

It has been hypothesized that some aspects of a second language (L2) might be learned easier than others if a language is learned late. On the other hand, non-use might result in a loss of language skills in one's native, i.e. one's first language (L1) (language attrition). To study which, if any, aspects of language are affected by either late acquisition or non-use, long-term German immigrant...

The MOSTAS (MOrpho-Semantic Tagger, Anonymizer and SpellChecker for biomedical texts) system preprocesses Clinical Reports in order to facilitate rear information retrieval of these texts. MOSTAS system annotates clinical reports with morpho-semantic information, applies abbreviation and acronyms conversions and detects biomedical concepts using specialized biomedical resources (databases, thes...

This study considered a relation between rhythm perception skills and individual differences in phonological awareness and grammar abilities, which are two language skills crucial for academic achievement. Twenty-five typically developing 6-year-old children were given standardized assessments of rhythm perception, phonological awareness, morpho-syntactic competence, and non-verbal cognitive ab...

The range and stability of structural colors generated by Morpho-inspired color reflectors are investigated. We find that despite the internal randomness of such structures that gives rise to their Morpho-like angle-independent iridescence, their colors under ambient lighting condition can be predicted by simple transfer-matrix calculations of corresponding planar multilayer structures. By calc...

In this paper, we present a method of avoiding the combinatorial explosion encountered in Factored Models during the construction of translation options caused by the large number of possible combinations of target language lemmas and morpho-syntactic factors. We automatically extract factor templates from a word-aligned annotated bilingual corpus and use them to distinguish which morpho-syntac...
