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 ...

Exploring the focus-morphology interface: morpho-syntactic aspects of non prosodic focus : Selected Proceedings of the 2007 Mid American Linguistics Conference [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This paper claims that a constraint-based theory (i.e, OT) can best account for the many manifestations of Focus in typologically diverse languages. We propose an interaction between Discourse Representation Theory (hereafter DRT) (Kamp, 1981; Kamp and ...

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

On the emergence of reduplication in German morphophonology

open access: yesZeitschrift für Sprachwissenschaft, 2017
This paper discusses reduplication as a technique of word formation in German. In contrast to previous approaches, which consider reduplication as extra-grammatical and unproductive, this study identifies rhyme and ablaut reduplication as truly ...

Avoiding stress on non-lexical material in nouns and verbs: predictable verb prosody in Serbo-Croatian stress standard varieties

open access: yesLinguistics, 2023
We consider two asymmetries reported in the literature on word prosodic systems: the tendency to allow more prosodic contrast in nouns than in verbs and the tendency to avoid stress on functional material.

Degraded acceptability and markedness in syntax, and the stochastic interpretation of optimality theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The argument that I tried to elaborate on in this paper is that the conceptual problem behind the traditional competence/performance distinction does not go away, even if we abandon its original Chomskyan formulation. It returns as the question about the

Strong Stationarity Conditions for Optimal Control of Hybrid Systems

open access: yes, 2016
We present necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for finite time optimal control problems for a class of hybrid systems described by linear complementarity models.

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Investigating Sonority Sequencing Principle in One Syllable CVCC Persian Words in Gnanadesikan’s Ternary Scales [PDF]

open access: yesمطالعات زبان‌‌ها و گویش‌های غرب ایران, 2016
The study aims to investigate Sonority Sequencing Principle(SSP) in final consonant cluster in one syllable Persian words in the frame work of “three dimensions sonority model” proposed by Gnanadesican (1997).

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.
