Formation of Distance‐Based Orientation: Political Identity through Relational Positioning in Israel

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Distance‐based orientation describes how pejorative labels may serve as anchor points for political identity. Existing research on political labeling has largely emphasized stigmatization, overlooking how labels may acquire durability and orienting capacity without losing pejorative force. Drawing on publicly circulating discourse, we trace positioning

An Outline of a Theory of Play

open access: yesSymbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Play is often dismissed as trivial, yet it is a fundamental and adaptive aspect of human and mammalian life. This paper develops a sociological theory of play, treating it as a total social fact that spans biological, psychological, and social dimensions.

A Systems‐Level Approach to Address Risks and Ethics in Artificial Intelligence Systems

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing the world, from completely controlling routine or mundane tasks like text and image generation, to powering advanced algorithms that control critical systems. The recent advances in generative AI quickly overwhelmed multiple industries from education to finance as first adopters rushed (and ...

The Syntax of Numeral Classifiers: A Small Clause inside a DP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper presents a unified analysis of various numeral classifier constructions in Korean. Capitalizing on the idea that a small clause structure is embedded within a DP, four patterns of numeral classifier constructions will be shown to receive a ...

A Bird's Eye View of English Grammar: Connecting the Dots in Two Dimensions

open access: yesTESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Over the past few decades, discussions on grammar instruction have primarily focused on teaching methodologies, such as whether grammar should be taught explicitly or implicitly, and whether the focus should be on form or forms. This paper, however, shifts the focus to grammar itself, aiming to provide a “shape” for pedagogical grammar.

Compositional Synthesis of Piece-Wise Functions by Learning Classifiers

open access: yes, 2018
We present a novel general technique that uses classifier learning to synthesize piece-wise functions (functions that split the domain into regions and apply simpler functions to each region) against logical synthesis specifications.
