In the past seven years, Language Research Institute of Inner Mongolia University has constructed a 500,000word scale Mongolian dependency treebank. The syntactic treebank provides a favorable data platform for language research and information processing. In order to effectively use the treebank, we have designed and implemented a graphical syntactic information retrieval system based on the M...

if we take ibn malik as the connecting chain of the interconnected history of syntax, we will find him among the last analytic scholars and theorist grammarians, since in his era, the principles of syntax has been established and grammarians didn’t provide new ideas. but discussion of ibn malik’s innovative syntactic approaches is important because of two reasons. due to his authoritative posit...

In this paper, we introduce our contributions to the SemEval-2014 Task 4 – Aspect Based Sentiment Analysis (Pontiki et al., 2014) challenge. We participated in the aspect term polarity subtask where the goal was to classify opinions related to a given aspect into positive, negative, neutral or conflict classes. To solve this problem, we employed supervised machine learning techniques exploiting...

This thesis improves unsupervised methods for part-of-speech (POS) induction and morphological word segmentation by modeling linguistic phenomena previously not used. For both tasks, we realize these linguistic intuitions with Bayesian generative models that first create a latent lexicon before generating unannotated tokens in the input corpus. Our POS induction model explicitly incorporates pr...

The paper reports on the lexico semantic annotation level of the Italian Treebank the rst Italian corpus with a multi level anno tation morpho syntactic syntactic and lexico semantic The strategy of annotation and the reference lexical resource are described and the results achieved too

Background: The P600 brain wave reflects syntactic processes in response to different first language (L1) syntactic violations, syntactic repair, structural reanalysis, and specific semantic components. Unlike semantic processing, aspects of the second language (L2) syntactic processing differ from the L1, particularly at lower levels of proficiency. At higher L2 proficiency, syntactic violatio...

We present the design of a novel syntactic and semantic framework to describe the bitstream-level representation of audiovisual information objects. This framework is important for emerging techniques in video compression, and is currently part of the MPEG-4 System Description Language Working Draft. The design is based on a principle of orthogonality between parsing and processing, i.e., separ...

This paper describes a complete syntactic analysis system based on multi-level chunking. On the basis of the correct sequences of Chinese words provided by CLP2010, the system firstly has a Part-ofspeech (POS) tagging with Conditional Random Fields (CRFs), and then does the base chunking and complex chunking with Maximum Entropy (ME), and finally generates a complete syntactic analysis tree. Th...

In this paper, we propose an alternative to interlingua which can capture the analyses and generalizations that interlinguas can express, but which uses cross-linguistic semantic features rather than a separate level of representation. This alternative we call lexico-structural transfer. Lexico-structural transfer relies on the expressive power of a lexicalized syntactic representation (or “lex...

We introduce two probabilistic models that can be used to identify elementary discourse units and build sentence-level discourse parse trees. The models use syntactic and lexical features. A discourse parsing algorithm that implements these models derives discourse parse trees with an error reduction of 18.8% over a state-ofthe-art decision-based discourse parser. A set of empirical evaluations...
