Abstract:

The structure of every language on grammar. For this, grammer is called the constitution of language. While the constitution contains the laws and regulations of a country, the grammar contains the laws and regulations of the language. Grammer identifies the rules of varios elements of language (sandhi, prefixes, suffixes, case, samās etc). The Paninian version of Sanskrit grammar has the same function. Here Panini has simultaneously highlighted the constitution and the grammar both of the Vedic and Sanskrit languages. Our topic is the Paninian version of Sanskrit grammar. However, from this e

Abstract:

The problem of identifying a probabilistic context free grammar has two aspects: the first is determining the grammar's topology (the rules of the grammar) and the second is estimating probabilistic weights for each rule. Given the hardness results for learning context-free grammars in general, and probabilistic grammars in particular, most of the literature has concentrated on the second problem. In this work we address the first problem. We restrict attention to structurally unambiguous weighted context-free grammars (SUWCFG) and provide a query learning algorithm for strucuturally unambiguo

Abstract:

The study deals with Josef Jungmannʼs relation to grammar. Part I shows that Jungmann switched from the term mluvník, the purist equivalent of the Latin word grammatica (‘grammarʼ), to the term mluvnice, which had been mainly promoted by Václav Hanka. Part II examines the inspirational sources of Jungmannʼs views on the Czech language (Kopitar, Jahn) and shows that Jungmann changed from a reformer of Czech orthography into an authority opposing changes in Czech orthography. He focused on lexicography and fully recognised the authority of Josef Dobrovský in the field of Czech grammar. Part III

Abstract:

Writing a grammar is an exhilarating and exhausting experience. All grammars must meet high expectations. This paper reports on a study of qualities sought in grammars based on a survey of reviews of grammars. The study reveals that linguists expect a grammar to be comprehensive, clear, and accessible to all. It should also contain careful argumentation and a wealth of data that is appropriate, authentic, and meticulously checked. Writers of grammars must ask themselves a variety of questions before they begin, including what the goal of the grammar is, who the audience for the grammar is, how

Abstract:

True design with grammars lies in the creation of the grammar rules, not in the application of the rules to generate design alternatives. Existing grammars can be modified to describe new languages of designs [1–4]. Studying an epicyclic gear train graph grammar leads to purposeful relaxation of grammar rules and subsequent discovery of new designs. A revised new EGT grammar is presented, which is designed to generate a wider selection of valid EGTs.

We guide the search for the graph grammar based on the size of the grammar and the portion of the graph described by the grammar.

Abstract:

Urban designers find it virtually impossible to (re)construct self-organising urban fabric formed by a synthesis of various builders. Here we show how generic, bottom-up grammars represent historic urban fabric in a unique context, and how shape rules are embedded in the evolutionary context. This paper generalises and formalises a context-free grammar and a context-sensitive grammar to describe and design two broadly categorised (i.e. orthogonal and non-orthogonal) urban patterns. Both grammars are constructive and employ morphological parameters to govern the patterning towards a desired for

Abstract:

Grammar metrics have been introduced to measure the quality and the complexity of the formal grammars. The aim of this paper is to explore the meaning of these notions and to experiment, on several grammars of domain specific languages and of general-purpose languages, existing grammar metrics together with the new metrics that are based on grammar LR automaton and on the language recognized. We discuss the results of this experiment and focus on the comparison between grammars of domain specific languages as well as of general-purpose languages and on the evolution of the metrics between seve

Abstract:

Increasingly, there have been proposals for grammar writers to take into account the realities and needs of the community in order to produce grammars that can serve the interests of the native speakers (e.g. Kadanya 2006, Rehg 2014). Obviously, a grammar of an endangered language should, among other things, lead to the maintenance and/or revitalization of the language. However, grammars that are comprehensive and clear (Noonan 2007, Payne 2014, Rice 2006), and yet focus on and meet the needs of the target community, are still rare. This paper provides a reflection, from a community linguist’s

Abstract:

The aim of this paper is to elaborate the power of cooperation in generating pictures by array grammars. As it is expected, the generative capacity of cooperating array grammar systems (with a fixed number, with a number greater than a given threshold, or with the maximal number of derivation steps in each component when it is enabled) is strictly greater than that of context-free array grammars. Yet the same result is also obtained in the case of systems with regular components, which contradicts the corresponding result for string grammar systems. In fact, some more results for array grammar

Abstract:

AbstractThe use of generative design grammars for computational design synthesis has been shown to be successful in many application areas. The development of advanced search and optimization strategies to guide the computational synthesis process is an active research area with great improvements in the last decades. The development of the grammar rules, however, often resembles an art rather than a science. Poor grammars drive the need for problem specific and sophisticated search and optimization algorithms that guide the synthesis process toward valid and optimized designs in a reasonable

Abstract:

SUMMARY The paper explores three grammars of two indigenous languages of Brazil written in Portuguese during the colonial period: two grammars of the Tupi language composed by José Anchieta (1534–1597) in 1595 and Luís Figueira (1575–1643) in 1621 (2nd ed., 1687), and one grammar of the Kiriri language, written by Luis Vincêncio Mamiani (1652–1730) in 1699. Although most studies agree that these grammars were based on a Latin framework, they usually do not specify which grammar in particular served as a model. It is known, however, that the Latin grammar by Manuel Álvares (1526–1582), first pu

Abstract:

This paper deals with selective substitution grammars. It concentrates on multisequential grammars with homogeneous selectors that have all their activated parts identical. The present paper reduces the number and size of selectors in these grammars. Indeed, it demonstrates that for every phrase-structure grammar, there exists an equivalent multisequential grammar having two homogeneous selectors, either of which has only two activated parts.

Abstract:

AbstractSpatial grammars are rule based, generative systems for the specification of formal languages. Set and shape grammar formulations of spatial grammars enable the definition of spatial design languages and the creation of alternative designs. Since the introduction of the underlying formalism, they have been successfully applied to different domains including visual arts, architecture, and engineering. Although many spatial grammars exist on paper, only a few, limited spatial grammar systems have been computationally implemented to date; this is especially true for three-dimensional (3-D

Abstract:

Confluent node-rewriting hypergraph grammars represent the most comprehensive known method for defining sets of hypergraphs in a recursive way. For a large natural subclass of these grammars, we show that the maximal rank of hyperedges indispensable for generating some set of hypergraphs equals the maximal rank of the hyperedges occurring in the hypergraphs of that set. Moreover, if such a grammar generates a set of graphs, one can construct from that grammar a C-edNCE graph grammar generating the same set of graphs.

Abstract:

AbstractThis paper examines variation in language development based on production data from three Greek-speaking children. Variation suggests that children employ more than one grammar during the acquisition process. This naturally raises the question of how ‘unwanted’ grammars gradually give way to the one that relates to the adult/target grammar. To account for variation, we implement partial ordering (Anttila 1997a, 1997b) to Tzakosta’s (2004) Multiple Parallel Grammars model of language development. More specifically, we propose that, in the intermediate stage of acquisition, constraint pe

Abstract:

The concept of emergence has its roots in 19th-century philosophy. Today it is central to many computational systems which retain the hallmarks of emergence laid out much earlier. The role of emergence in creative design and its unique embodiment in shape grammars have been emphasized by March, Stiny, and others. Shape grammars generate emergent shapes—shapes not predefined in a grammar. Emergent shapes are not only the output of a shape grammar computation; they can be the input for further computation. The history of emergence and its characterization in shape grammars are discussed here. Di
