Monotonicity in a Numeral Classifier language
Glossa, 2023 While many languages require an obligatory plural morpheme to make reference to plural individuals, numeral classifier languages generally do not (Greenberg 1972; Sanches & Slobin 1973; Doetjes 2012: a.o.).

Data-oriented parsing with discontinuous constituents and function tags
Journal of Language Modelling, 2016 Statistical parsers are e ective but are typically limited to producing projective dependencies or constituents. On the other hand, linguisti- cally rich parsers recognize non-local relations and analyze both form and function phenomena but rely on ...

A language for probabilistically oblivious computation [PDF]
Proceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages, 2019 An oblivious computation is one that is free of direct and indirect information leaks, e.g., due to observable differences in timing and memory access patterns. This paper presents Lambda Obliv, a core language whose type system enforces obliviousness. Prior work on type-enforced oblivious computation has focused on deterministic programs. Lambda Obliv

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016 Whether pitch in language and music is governed by domain-specific or domain-general cognitive mechanisms is contentiously debated. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether mechanisms governing pitch contour perception operate differently ...

Exhaustification in the semantics of cause and because
Glossa, 2023 We show that a single operation can account for three seemingly distinct properties of the semantics of cause and because. The properties are, firstly, their comparative nature: interpreting cause and because involves comparing what would happen in the ...

Does telling white lies signal pro-social preferences?
Judgment and Decision Making, 2015 The opportunity to tell a white lie (i.e., a lie that benefits another person) generates a moral conflict between two opposite moral dictates, one pushing towards telling the truth always and the other pushing towards helping others.

Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2021 We present a memory-based model for context- dependent semantic parsing. Previous approaches focus on enabling the decoder to copy or modify the parse from the previous utterance, assuming there is a dependency between the current and previous parses. In

Predicting Variation of Folk Songs: A Corpus Analysis Study on the Memorability of Melodies
Frontiers in Psychology, 2017 We present a hypothesis-driven study on the variation of melody phrases in a collection of Dutch folk songs. We investigate the variation of phrases within the folk songs through a pattern matching method which detects occurrences of these phrases within

Data-to-text Generation with Macro Planning
Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2021 Recent approaches to data-to-text generation have adopted the very successful encoder-decoder architecture or variants thereof. These models generate text that is fluent (but often imprecise) and perform quite poorly at selecting appropriate content and ...
