Term extraction systems are now an integral part of the compiling of specialized dictionaries and updating of term banks. In this paper, we present a term detection approach that discovers, structures, and infers conceptual relationships between terms for French. Conceptual relationships are deduced from specific types of term variations, morphological and syntagmatic, and are expressed through...

In this paper, we show that the Lexical Functions (LFs) of the Explanatory Combinatorial Dictionary are well suited for addressing some lexical questions in text generation like collocations and textual phenomena. We first describe LFs and divide them into two subsets: paradigmatic LFs and syntagmatic LFs. In particular, we see how paradigmatic LFs can be used for coreferential relations and de...

This study examines structural priming in an on-line reading task that compares reading performance by first and second language readers of English. Robust effects for priming were evident for the second, but not first, language readers, suggesting that priming may occur where there are insufficient sentence traces in memory to support sentence interpretation. The empirical results are simulate...

Word Sense Disambiguation confronts with the lack of syntagmatic information associated to word senses. In the present work we propose a method for the enrichment of EuroWordNet with syntagmatic information, by means of the WSD process itself. We consider that an ambiguous occurrence drastically reduces its ambiguity when considered together with the words it establishes syntactic relations in ...

The description of a language's phonological system is not complete without statistically reliable data pertaining to the varied syntagmatic relations occurring within that system. A measure of ftmctional load is needed to elucidate the efficiency, viewed from a cybernetic angle, of the particular set of phonemes. This approach opens up the way for various information-theoretic concepts such as...

Semantic theory predicts four different focus configurations for a pair of adjacent words: early, late, broad and double focus. We report on a production study which confirms that speakers make a significant, though non-obligatory, distinction between the four categories. The distinction is observed in yes/no question and so cannot be associated with a specific intonational tune. The results al...
