The wide adoption of smart devices and Internet-of-Things (IoT) sensors has led to massive growth in data generation at the edge Internet over past decade. Intelligent real-time analysis such a high volume data, particularly leveraging highly accurate deep learning (DL) models, often requires be processed as close sources (or Internet) minimize network processing latency. advent specialized, lo...

this article studies the generative grammar approach and some other theories driven from it to lexicon and lexical entries. generative grammar is known as a syntax-based theory, so some aspects of language which have been studied in this theory may have been ignored in other theories. this article shows that more attention has been given to lexicon and lexical entries since 50s. we may claim th...

The present study investigated the effect of different types of text simplification (i.e., reducing the lexical and syntactic complexity of texts) on reading comprehension of English as a Foreign Language learners (EFL). Sixty female intermediate EFL learners from three intact classes in Tabarestan Language Institute in Tehran participated in the study. The intact classes were assigned to three...

The Lexical Grid project is an on-going communitydriven initiative, coordinated by the Mayo Clinic Division of Biomedical Statistics and Informatics, that provides a common terminology model to represent multiple vocabu­ lary and ontology sources as well as a scalable and ro­ bust API for accessing such information. In order to add more powerful functionalities (e.g., inferencing, editing) to t...

Text processing requires inferences for establishing coherence between successive sentences. In neuropsychological studies and brain imaging studies, these coherence-building processes have been ascribed to the right hemisphere. On the other hand, there is evidence for prefrontal brain damage causing non-aphasic language disorders, in which text level processes are impaired. In this study, we u...

Previous research has shown that comprehenders do not always conduct a full (re)analysis of temporarily ambiguous "garden-path" sentences. The present study used a sentence-picture matching task to investigate what kind of representations are formed when full reanalysis is not performed: Do comprehenders "blend" two incompatible representations as a result of shallow syntactic processing or do ...

Multi-word lexical units are a typical feature of specialized dictionaries, in particular monolingual and bilingual maritime dictionaries. The paper studies the concept of the multi-word lexical unit and considers the similarities and differences of their selection and presentation in monolingual and bilingual maritime dictionaries. The work analyses such issues as the classification of multi-w...
