Abstract:

Languages and species both evolve by a process of repeated divergences, which can be described with the branching of a phylogenetic tree or phylogeny. Taking advantage of this fact, it is possible to study language change using computational tree building techniques developed for evolutionary biology. Mathematical approaches to the construction of phylogenies fall into two major categories: character based and distance based methods. Character based methods were used in prior work in the application of phylogenetic methods to the Indo-European family of languages by researchers at the Universi

Abstract:

Bayesian modelling is a natural fit for tasks in computational linguistics, since it can provide interpretable structures, useful prior controls, and coherent management of uncertainty. However, exact Bayesian inference is intractable for many models of practical interest. Developing both accurate and efficient approximate Bayesian inference algorithms remains a fundamental challenge, especially for the field of computational linguistics where datasets are large and growing and models consist of complex latent structures. Collapsed variational inference (CVI) is an important milestone that com

Abstract:

This thesis presents a computational text analysis tool called AFFECTiS (Affect Interpretation/Inference System) which focuses on the task of interpreting natural language text based on its subjective, non-factual, affective properties that go beyond the 'traditional' factual, objective dimensions of meaning that have so far been the main focus of Natural Language Processing and Computational Linguistics. The thesis presents a fully compositional uniform wide-coverage computational model of sentiment in text that builds on a number of fundamental compositional sentiment phenomena and processes

Abstract:

The thesis presents a way to apply process algebra to computational linguistics. We are interested in how contexts can affect or contribute to language understanding and model the phenomena as a system of communicating processes to study the interaction between them in detail. For this purpose, we turn to the pie-calculus and investigate how communicating processes may be defined. While investigating the computational grounds of communication and concurrency,we devise a graphical representation for processes to capture the structure of interaction between them. Then, we develop a logic, combin

Full text

Abstract:

<p>In this thesis we present the idea of using parallel phrases for word alignment. Each parallel phrase is extracted from a set of manual word alignments and contains a number of source and target words and their corresponding alignments. If a parallel phrase matches a new sentence pair, its word alignments can be applied to the new sentence. There are several advantages of using phrases for word alignment. First, longer text segments include more context and will be more likely to produce correct word alignments than shorter segments or single words. More importantly, the use of longer phra

In the world of the financial economics, we have abundant text data.

Abstract:

In this work, a comprehensive study of semantic annotation has been carried out in early stage. The study focuses on the annotation requirements of human knowledge acquisition in knowledge engineering, e-Iearning and computational linguistics. Based on findings from the study, annotation of natural languages for linguistic analysis creates complicated data structures. Due to the complexity, almost all existing annotation schemes are designed to support only one application domain at one instance. Discovery of new knowledge by means of cross-domains text analysis is limited by the capability of

Abstract:

Machine translation has advanced considerably in recent years, primarily due to the availability of larger datasets. However, one cannot rely on the availability of copious, high-quality bilingual training data. In this work, we improve upon the state-of-the-art in machine translation with an instance-based model that scores each instance of translation in the corpus. A translation instance reflects a source and target correspondence at one specific location in the corpus. The significance of this approach is that our model is able to capture that some instances of translation are more relevan

Abstract:

This thesis attempts to answer the question "How do we store and retrieve linguistic information?", and to show how this is intimately related to the question of connected speech phonology. The main discussion begins in Chapter One with a non-linguistic introduction to the problem of looking things up, and considers in particular the hashtable and its properties. The theme is developed directly in the latter part of the chapter, and further in Chapter Two, where it is proposed not only that the hashtable is the mechanism actually used by the language faculty, but also that phonology is that me

Abstract:

Nothing seems more obvious than that our words have meaning. When people speak to each other, they exchange information through the use of a particular set of words. The words they say to each other, moreover, are about something. Yet this relation of “aboutness,” known as “reference,” is not quite as simple as it appears. In this thesis I will present two opposing arguments about the nature of our words and how they relate to the things around us. First, I will present Hilary Putnam’s argument, in which he examines the indeterminacy of reference, forcing us to conclude that we must abandon me

Abstract:

This dissertation addresses an unanswered question in Arabic psycholinguistics. Arabic words are characterized by their nonconcatenative structure, in which a consonantal root that encodes the main semantic content is interleaved with a derivational pattern (called "binyan", pl. "binyanim"), which is typically vocalic but may also contain consonantal elements and contributes grammatical information. The canonical example of the Semitic root and binyan system is the combination of root /ktb/ which denotes the broad semantic sense of "writing" with verbal binyan /CaCaC/ (with Cindicating a root

Abstract:

This thesis addresses the problem of accounting for morphological alternation within Natural Language Processing. It proposes an approach to morphology which is based on phonological concepts, in particular the syllable, in contrast to morpheme-based approaches which have standardly been used by both NLP and linguistics. It is argued that morpheme-based approaches, within both linguistics and NLP, grew out of the apparently purely affixational morphology of European languages, and especially English, but are less appropriate for non-affixational languages such as Arabic. Indeed, it is claimed
