Aging and Language: Maintenance of Morphological Representations in Older Adults
Frontiers in Communication, 2019 Studies employing primed lexical decision tasks have revealed morphological facilitation effects in children and young adults. It is unknown if this effect is preserved or diminished in older adults.

Lexical Complexity of Decision-Making Writing Tasks: Form-focused Guided Strategic Planning [PDF]
, 2016 The present study is an attempt to investigate the effect of form-focused guided strategic planning on lexical complexity of learners' performance in writing tasks. The twenty intermediate level participants of the study performed an unplanned and then a

A Bayesian hybrid method for context-sensitive spelling correction [PDF]
arXiv, 1996 Two classes of methods have been shown to be useful for resolving lexical ambiguity. The first relies on the presence of particular words within some distance of the ambiguous target word; the second uses the pattern of words and part-of-speech tags around the target word.

Moving beyond Kucera and Francis: a critical evaluation of current word frequency norms and the introduction of a new and improved word frequency measure for American English [PDF]
, 2009 Word frequency is the most important variable in research on word processing and memory. Yet, the main criterion for selecting word frequency norms has been the availability of the measure, rather than its quality.

Task modulation of brain responses in visual word recognition as studied using EEG/MEG and fMRI
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2013 Do task demands change the way we extract information from a stimulus, or only how we use this information for decision making? In order to answer this question for visual word recognition, we used EEG/MEG as well as fMRI to determine the latency ranges ...

Generating Texts with Integer Linear Programming [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Concept-to-text generation typically employs a pipeline architecture, which often leads to suboptimal texts. Content selection, for example, may greedily select the most important facts, which may require, however, too many words to express, and this may be undesirable when space is limited or expensive.
