Linked Open Data (LOD) is growing rapidly as a source of structured knowledge used in a variety of text processing applications. However, the applications using the LOD need to be able to mediate between the front end user interfaces and LOD. This often requires a natural language interpretation of this structured, linked data. We demonstrate a middle-tier framework that can generate patterns w...

In this squib we explore a strictly derivational explanation for the differences in possible middle voice constructions in Norwegian and Swedish. Whereas Norwegian allows by its lexical s-passive construction as well as a complex adjectival construction to stand in for middle semantics, only the latter option is available in Swedish. We argue that this contrast lies in the lexicalization of for...

There has been a hot debate on the typological status of Mandarin Chinese in Talmyan framework of Verb-framed languages (V-languages) and Satellite-framed Languages(S-languages). However, most previous studies focus on motion events, while other macro-events (Talmy, 2000) receive little attention. The present study aims to investigate event of realization in Mandarin Chinese with experimental m...

This research aims to investigate the types and factors of code mixing which found in official twitter account BKN (Indonesia National Civil Service Agency) during registration civil servant’s candidate November 2019. Qualitative approach was conducted analyze social mixing. Observation method with writing technique used collect data. Data reduction, data display drawing conclusion are process ...

This paper describes ongoing research on NLG for dialogue systems. Sentence planning is performed by selecting the appropriate template, while previously developed transfer and generation components of a transfer–based MT architecture perform the lexicalization and linguistic realization processes in the generation process. This approach allows for multilingual generation since there is a clear...

We use a Dynamic Bayesian Network (dbn) to represent compactly a variety of sublexical and contextual features relevant to Part-ofSpeech (PoS) tagging. The outcome is a flexible tagger (LegoTag) with state-of-the-art performance (3.6% error on a benchmark corpus). We explore the effect of eliminating redundancy and radically reducing the size of feature vocabularies. We find that a small but li...

A pattern in the translation of locative prepositional phrases between English and Spanish is presented. A way of exploiting this pattern is proposed in the context of a multilingual machine translation system under development. I n t r o d u c t i o n Two of the main problems in machine translation (MT) are ambiguity and lexical gaps. Ambiguity occurs when a word in the source language (SL) ha...
