Abstract:

Motivé par la découverte automatique de la structure hiérarchique de séquences d'ADN, nous nous intéressons au probléme classique de la recherche de la plus petite grammaire algébrique générant exactement une séquence donnée. Ce probléme NP-dur a été largement étudié pour des applications comme la compression de données, la découverte de structure et la théorie algorithmique de l'information. Nous proposons de décomposer ce probléme en deux problémes d'optimisation complémentaires. Le premier consiste á choisir les chaînes de la séquence qui seront les constituants de la grammaire finale alors

Abstract:

Motivated by the goal of discovering hierarchical structures inside DNA sequences, we address the Smallest Grammar Problem, the problem of finding a smallest context-free grammar that generates exactly one sequence. This NP-Hard problem has been widely studied for applications like Data Compression, Structure Discovery and Algorithmic Information Theory. We give a new formalisation of this problem in form of a complete and correct search space. This search space is based on the decomposition of the problem into two complementary optimisation problems. The first one consists in choosing which s

In this dissertation, I examine the marking of focus and givenness in Nte?kepmxcin (Thompson River Salish). The focus is, roughly, the answer to a wh-question, and is highlighted by the primary sentential accent in stress languages like English. This has been formalized as the Stress-Focus Correspondence Principle. Given material is old information, and is de-accented in languages like English. Nte?kepmxcin is a stress language, but marks focus structurally. However, I argue that the structure has a prosodie motivation: the clause is restructured such that the focus is leftmost in the intonati

Abstract:

This thesis is a contribution to a deeper understanding of selected Bengali grammatical structures as far as their syntactic and semantic properties are concerned. It questions traditional interpretations and takes a practical approach in the detailed investigation of actual language use. My methodology is based on the belief that clarity and inquisitiveness should take precedence over alliance to particular grammar theories and that there is still much to discover about the way the Bengali language works.

La comparaison a toujours été mal cernée aussi bien du côté de la grammaire que de celui de la rhétorique. Pour cette raison, elle ne trouve pas de place bien précise dans les ouvrages de linguistique ou sinon des analyses hétérogènes succinctes et incomplètes. Cette thèse se propose donc d’uniformiser l’étude de la comparaison en en balayant toutes les formes possibles. Par ailleurs, nous tentons de réhabiliter la distinction relative à la tradition gréco-latine entre la comparatio et la similitudo, qui s’est perdue depuis le XVIIe siècle, période où s’est installée la confusion.

Abstract:

Since programs are written in many languages and design documents are not maintained (if they ever existed), there is a need to extract the design and other information that the programs represent. To do this without writing a separate program for each language, a common representation of the symbol table and parse tree would be required.The purpose of the parse tree and symbol table will not be to generate object code but to provide a platform for analysis tools. In this way the tool designer develops only one version instead of separate versions for each language. The generic symbol table an

Abstract:

A large proportion of computationally-oriented theories of grammar operate within the confines of monostratality (i.e. there is only one level of syntactic analysis), compositionality (i.e. the meaning of an expression is determined by the meanings of its syntactic parts, plus their manner of combination), and adjacency (i.e. the only operation on terminal strings is concatenation). This thesis looks at two major approaches falling within these bounds: that based on phrase structure grammar (e.g. Gazdar), and that based on categorial grammar (e.g. Steedman).

This thesis develops two computational systems that learn both the word-meanings and parsing model required to map sentences onto logical-forms from an example corpus of (sentence, logical-form) pairs.

Abstract:

Natural Grammar provides a way for the junior high or high school English teacher to draw upon students' "natural," or subconscious, knowledge of the systems and structures of spoken English. When such subconscious knowledge is conceptualized (brought to the conscious level), the students can transfer that knowledge to their writing. Natural grammar, in other words, allows the teacher to begin with what students already know, so that he or she may help students to build upon that knowledge in the context of the students' own writing.

These two proposals form the basis for the analyses developed in subsequent chapters. The second chapter pursues the themes of the first, examining the syntax of so-called "nominal" (verbless
