On the Integration of Dative Adjuncts into Event Structures in Yapa Languages
Warlpiri and Warlmanpa (Ngumpin-Yapa languages of Australia) exhibit a complex predicate construction in which a class of preverbs introduces a single argument that is not shared by the argument structure of the inflecting verb, nor is there necessarily ...

Reversing Event Structures [PDF]
Reversible computation has attracted increasing interest in recent years. In this paper, we show how to model reversibility in concurrent computation as realised abstractly in terms of event structures. Two different forms of event structures are considered, namely event structures defined by causation and prevention relations and event structures ...

Revisiting -ej(ar) verbs in Catalan: Argument and event structure
We explore the properties of the Catalan verbalizing suffix -ej(ar), centering on intransitive verbs. After presenting the rich variety of outputs that this suffix allows, we focus on two generalizations.

Learning the Structure of Event Sequences [PDF]
How is complex sequential material acquired, processed, and represented when there is no intention to learn? Two experiments exploring a choice reaction time task are reported. Unknown to Ss, successive stimuli followed a sequence derived from a "noisy" finite-state grammar.

Talking about the weather: Two construals of precipitation events in English
Weather expressions such as It is raining have proven challenging for linguistic researchers; not only do weather expressions often have special linguistic properties, but languages show considerable variation in the morphosyntactic expression of such ...

Domains and event structures for fusions [PDF]
Stable event structures, and their duality with prime algebraic domains arising as partial orders of configurations, are a landmark of concurrency theory, providing a clear characterisation of causality in computations. They have been used for defining a concurrent semantics of several formalisms, from Petri nets to (linear) graph rewriting systems ...

Refining a Bayesian network using a chain event graph [PDF]
The search for a useful explanatory model based on a Bayesian Network (BN) now has a long and successful history. However, when the dependence structure between the variables of the problem is asymmetric then this cannot be captured by the BN.

Ku Waru Clause Chaining and the Acquisition of Complex Syntax
How do children learn to understand and use complex syntactic constructions? In English, Diessel (2004) shows that they do so in two different ways.

Mandarin and English Event Cognitive Alignment From Corpus-Based Semantic Fusion Model Perspective
The study explores the fusion of semantic roles and the different semantic fusion types, aiming at establishing a semantic fusion model to explain the cognitive alignment of events in Chinese and English simple sentence constructions containing two verbs.
