Abstract:

We describe a study of syntactic intervention administered to a 12;2-year-old individual with syntactic SLI, who had difficulties in the comprehension and production of structures containing syntactic movement such as relative clauses, object questions, topicalization sentences, and sentences with verb movement. The intervention, comprised of 16 sessions, was based on syntactic theory and included explicit teaching of syntactic movement, relying on a type of syntactic knowledge that was intact — the argument structure of the verb. The participant's performance was assessed before and after tre

Abstract:

With the challenge of international publication, this study compares the syntactic complexity of Indonesian scholars' publications. The analysis covers 21 journal articles from two groups, from the journals with quartile and without quartile. Using 14 syntactic complexity measures, the results show that the journal articles with quartile have higher mean scores of syntactic complexity measures than the non-quartiles. However, significant differences only occur in three groups of measurement: Length of Production Unit, Coordination, and Degree of Phrasal Sophistication. The findings may show th

Hollow microspheres are widely used in syntactic foam as a lightweight filling material.

The mechanical test result shows that the flexural strength of phenolic syntactic foam gradually decreases with the increasing volume fraction of microspheres at room temperature.

Abstract A controlled reading experiment reveals that stress-based linguistic rhythm impinges on syntactic ambiguity resolution in silent and oral reading.

Such an effect remains inexplicable in the context of (psycho-)linguistic theories that assume a strictly unidirectional relationship between syntactic and phonological processes, the latter merely interpreting the co

The phenomenum of "false liaison" (linking errors) in French has almost never been studied in itself. A considerable number of examples from different sources are examined from a lexical, morphological and syntactic perspective. If many instances can be satisfactorily reduced to phrasal affixes (Miller 1991), the remaining cases fall under two types of explanations, analogy and "liaison à distance" (linking from a distance) (Pichon 1935), each of which alone is not sufficient, like the postulation of plural and verbal markers (Kaye & Morin 1982), to cover all the data, and a comparison of

Abstract:

The performance of Chinese-named entity recognition (NER) has improved via word enhancement or new frameworks that incorporate various types of external data. However, for Chinese NER, syntactic composition (in sentence level) and inner regularity (in character-level) have rarely been studied. Chinese characters are highly sensitive to sentential syntactic data. The same Chinese character sequence can be decomposed into different combinations of words according to how they are used and placed in the context. In addition, the same type of entities usually have the same naming rules due to the s

Abstract:

Background and aims Previous studies suggest that syntactic development in children with intellectual disabilities (ID) is positively correlated with verbal short-term memory (VSTM). This study investigated the characteristics of syntactic development and their relationships of VSTM in children with ID based on type. Methods The participants were children with ID ( N = 34), including 14 children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), 20 with Down syndrome (DS), with chronological ages from 8 years 10 months to 18 years 4 months and nonverbal mental ages (MA) of over 4 years, and typically devel

Abstract:

We investigate the type of attention (domain-general or language-specific) used during syntactic processing. We focus on syntactic priming: In this task, participants listen to a sentence that describes a picture (prime sentence), followed by a picture the participants need to describe (target sentence). We measure the proportion of times participants use the syntactic structure they heard in the prime sentence to describe the current target sentence as a measure of syntactic processing. Participants simultaneously conducted a motion-object tracking (MOT) task, a task commonly used to tax doma

Purpose This study investigated the effect of age on articulatory movement and stability in young, middle-age, and older adults. It also examined the potential influence of linguistic complexity on speech motor control across utterances that differed in their length and grammatical complexity. Method There were 60 participants in 3 age groups: 20–30 years, 40–50 years, and 60–70 years, with equal numbers of men and women in each group. The speakers produced 10 repetitions of 5 different stimuli—each of which included the same bilabial-loaded phrase in different grammatical contexts—while their

Abstract:

The current study explores the effects of task complexity on senior high school students’ writing performance. The participants were 60 Chinese senior high school EFL students. The variable of task complexity is based on the combination of reasoning demands and prior knowledge aspects and the writing performance is measured by syntactic complexity. The results show that the participants produced more complex syntactic structures in task with higher complexity. Meanwhile, the participants’ perception of task complexity can influence the production of writing.

Abstract:

Named entity recognition (NER) is a fundamental task in Natural Language Processing (NLP). During the training process, NER models suffer from over-confidence, and especially for the Chinese NER task, it involves word segmentation and introduces erroneous entity boundary segmentation, exacerbating over-confidence and reducing the model’s overall performance. These issues limit further enhancement of NER models. To tackle these problems, we proposes a new model named KCB-FLAT, designed to enhance Chinese NER performance by integrating enriched semantic information with the word-Boundary Smoothi

Abstract:

Language researchers have long looked for ways to investigate the connection between textual language use and the development of both L1 and L2 writing. The purpose of this research study is to examine the predictors of writing quality in terms of lexical richness and syntactic complexity in academic writing. The study was based on a hypothesis that the lexical sophistication and the mean length T-unit (MLTU) are the indicators of writing quality. A corpus of 50 article abstracts written by Tunisian scholars was analyzed and scored using a holistic scoring rubric that indicates writing quality

Abstract:

A method has been developed and implemented that assigns syntactic roles to commas. Text that has been tagged using a part-of-speech tagger serves as the input to the system. A set of Finite State Automata first assigns temporary syntactic roles to each comma in the sentence. A greedy learning algorithm is then used to determine the final syntactic roles of the commas. The system requires no training and is not domain specific. The performance of the system on numerous corpora is given and compared against a rule-based approach.
