Abstract:
This dissertation studies Bantu nominalizations drawing evidence primarily from Gikuyu and Bantu languages already in the literature. Gikuyu provides a very rich system of deverbal nouns which brings to the fore issues regarding word and phrase composition of deverbal elements, and the lexical integrity of words. Bantu nominalizations have received little attention in the literature in works such as Myers (1987), Kinyalolo (1991), Bresnan and Mchombo (1995). A very striking aspect of nominalized verbs in Gikuyu, (and Bantu) is that they bear both noun morphology (noun class marking), and verba

The relationship between language and structure is apparent in this exhibition of paintings and works on paper from 2004-2009. This theme in my work follows through in my art history thesis Language Beyond Metaphor, about Francesco Borromini's Sant'Ivo alla Sapienza as well. The coincidence of these principles in my work originated in a love for the Renaissance that I developed when I had the opportunity to study in Rome for a semester. When I returned, I had the incredible privilege of studying under a very famous artist who taught my classical painting as well as art theory. The Mastercopy,

Abstract:
This paper describes a two-level formalism where feature structures are used in contextual rules. Whereas usual two-level grammars describe rational sets over symbol pairs, this new formalism uses tree structured regular expressions. They allow an explicit and precise definition of the scope of feature structures. A given surface form may be described using several feature structures. Feature unification is expressed in contextual rules using variables, like in a unification grammar. Grammars are compiled in finite state multi-tape transducers.

Theories of phonological word formation (e.g. Selkirk 1980, 1986; Nespor & Vogel 1986; Lahiri & Plank 2010) assume that prosodic units are not isomorphic with syntactic units. However, the prosodic status of compounds remain uncertain, at least in so far as language planning and phonological encoding is concerned. Theories are not transparent about the prosodic status of compounds: although a noun-noun compound in English consists of two lexical words (and therefore two prosodic words), it can also act as a single prosodic item by exhibiting main stress on the first unit and carrying inflectio

Representing graphs in Rust is a problematic issue, as ownership forbids typical representations found in e.g. C++. A common approach is to use reference counting to represent graphs, but this can easily lead to memory leaks if cycles are present in the graph. As naïve reference counting is not sufficient, we must search for alternative representations. In this thesis, we explore different memory models that allow safe representations of graph-like data structures in Rust. These memory models are later evaluated in terms of performance and usability. We find that region-based allocation is, in
