Functions of Language, 2009
This article takes up two closely connected theoretical unclarities: the questions of what a linguistic category is, and what it means for linguistic elements to have grammatical rather than lexical status. The two issues are discussed with reference to the case of evidentiality.

AbstractThis chapter sets out semantic and analytic parameters for understanding evidentials—closed grammatical sets whose main meaning is information source. A noun phrase may have its own evidentiality specification, different from that of a verb. Other means of expressing information source offer open-ended options in terms of their semantics, and ...

An Evidential Measure of Risk in Evidential Markov Chains
2009This paper provides a new method for computing a risk criterion for decision-making in systems modelled by an Evidential Markov Chain (EMC), which is a generalization to the Dempster-Shafer's Theory of Evidence [1]: it is a Markov chain manipulating sets of states instead of the states themselves. A cost is associated to each state.

Evidential Extensions of Non-Evidential Categories
2004Abstract Mood, modality, tense, person, nominalizations, and complement clauses can develop overtones similar to some semantic features of evidentials. The conditional in French can be used for information obtained from a questionable secondhand source for whose veracity the speaker refuses to take responsibility. This does not mean that

Learning Structure in Evidential Networks from Evidential DataBases
2015Evidential networks have gained a growing interest as a good tool fusing belief function theory and graph theory to analyze complex systems with uncertain data. The graphical structure of these models is not always clear, it can be fixed by experts or constructed from existing data. The main issue of this paper is how to extract the graphical structure

Abstract In some languages every statement must contain a specification of the type of evidence on which it is based: for example, whether the speaker saw it, or heard it, or inferred it from indirect evidence, or learnt it from someone else.
