Complex Inferential Processes Are Needed for Implicature Comprehension, but Not for Implicature Production

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
Upon hearing “Some of Michelangelo’s sculptures are in Rome,” adults can easily generate a scalar implicature and infer that the intended meaning of the utterance corresponds to “Some but not all Michelangelo’s sculptures are in Rome.” Comprehension ...

Backward variational approach on time scales with an action depending on the free endpoints

open access: yes, 2011
We establish necessary optimality conditions for variational problems with an action depending on the free endpoints. New transversality conditions are also obtained.

Effect of Complexity on Speech Sound Development: Evidence From Meta-Analysis Review of Treatment-Based Studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2021
In the current study, we aimed at understanding the effect of exposure to complex input on speech sound development, by conducting a systematic meta-analysis review of the existing treatment-based studies employing complex input in children with speech ...

Erasable/Inerasable L1 Transfer in Interlanguage Phonology: An Optimality Theory Analysis of /aʊn/ and Sentence Stress in Chinese Learners of English

open access: yesContemporary Social Sciences, 2022
The areas affected by the L1 transfer to L2, such as phonotactics and stress, appear to have different degrees of erasability through training and practice.

Quantum optimal control theory [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics B: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics, 2007
The control of quantum dynamics via specially tailored laser pulses is a long-standing goal in physics and chemistry. Partly, this dream has come true, as sophisticated pulse shaping experiments allow to coherently control product ratios of chemical reactions. The theoretical design of the laser pulse to transfer an initial state to a given final state

Lipschitzian Regularity of the Minimizing Trajectories for Nonlinear Optimal Control Problems

open access: yes, 2002
We consider the Lagrange problem of optimal control with unrestricted controls and address the question: under what conditions we can assure optimal controls are bounded?

Optimality theory and assessment of developing and disordered phonologies

open access: yesJournal of Indian Speech Language & Hearing Association, 2015
Optimality theory (OT) is a comparatively recent linguistic theory which has been introduced in the early 1990s. OT's description of children's error patterns as patterns that are derived from a hierarchy of conflicting universal constraints has much ...
