Heisenberg uncertainty principle and quantum Zeno effects in the linguistic interpretation of quantum mechanics [PDF]
Recently we proposed measurement theory (i.e., quantum language, or the linguistic interpretation of quantum mechanics), which is characterized as the linguistic turn of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics. This turn from physics to language does not only extend quantum theory to classical theory but also yield the quantum mechanical ...

Categories of Semantic Concepts [PDF]
Modelling concept representation is a foundational problem in the study of cognition and linguistics. This work builds on the confluence of conceptual tools from G\"ardenfors semantic spaces, categorical compositional linguistics, and applied category theory to present a domain-independent and categorical formalism of 'concept'.

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Looking forward: Linguistic theory and methods [PDF]
This chapter examines current developments in linguistic theory and methods, focusing on the increasing integration of computational, cognitive, and evolutionary perspectives. We highlight four major themes shaping contemporary linguistics: (1) the explicit testing of hypotheses about symbolic representation, such as efficiency, locality, and ...

A comprehensive analysis of the tubarial glands
Abstract The tubarial glands (TGs) are a collection of salivary glands (SGs) located within the nasopharynx, proximal to the eustachian tube. Currently, there is no quantitative characterization of the TGs. We investigated the histological architecture of the TGs and compared it with the major and minor SGs for categorization.

How Linguistics Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Language Models [PDF]
Language models can produce fluent, grammatical text. Nonetheless, some maintain that language models don't really learn language and also that, even if they did, that would not be informative for the study of human learning and processing. On the other side, there have been claims that the success of LMs obviates the need for studying linguistic ...
