In this paper, we describe the design and implementation of a tool called the Lexical Difficulty Filter (LDF) intended to help learners or teachers in selecting sentences appropriate to the level of students for English vocabulary learning. The LDF serves as a bridge between learner and information resource bank. It selects suitable sentences from the output of standard English corpus concordan...

1. Introduction To keep up with the information-driven society, it must be one of the most important things to acquire foreign languages, especially English for international communications. In order to develop a computer-assisted language teaching and learning environment, we have been compiling a large-scale speech corpus of Japanese learner English, which provides a lot of useful information...

This article attempts to analyze the differences and similarities in domain, collocation, semantic prosody of Chinese synonyms “jiǎn, qiē, kǎn, gē” native language corpus learner corpus, using online retrieval tool Sketch Engine. Firstly, usage domains word frequency distributions these four verbs are statistically analyzed. Secondly, common collocations retrieved sorted based on LogDice values...

The main goal of this article is to analyze 688 KCI (Korea Citation Index) articles in terms the Biblio data collector and software package NetMiner.

Since the experiments of Saffran, Aslin, and Newport (1996), there has been a great deal of interest in the question of how statistical regularities in the speech stream might be used by infants to begin to identify individual words. In this work, we use computational modeling to explore the effects of different assumptions the learner might make regarding the nature of words – in particular, h...

Since the experiments of Saffran et al. [Saffran, J., Aslin, R., & Newport, E. (1996). Statistical learning in 8-month-old infants. Science, 274, 1926-1928], there has been a great deal of interest in the question of how statistical regularities in the speech stream might be used by infants to begin to identify individual words. In this work, we use computational modeling to explore the effects...
