Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract We employed structural priming to test whether targeted exposure to unambiguous form–meaning mappings led to learning of noncanonical word orders, specifically in object relative clauses, among 165 low‐to‐intermediate‐level L1 German L2 learners of English.

Parsing with Neural and Finite Automata Networks: A Graph Grammar Approach
, 2011 Parsing with finite automata networks implies, in one way, the conversion of a regular expression into a minimal deterministic finite automaton, while parsing with neural networks involves parsing of a natural language sentence.

Language Learning, EarlyView.Abstract This study explores how word frequency affects verb‐mediated prediction in L1 and L2 speakers, using a visual‐world eye‐tracking task. By manipulating frequency of nouns within subjects (higher; lower) and type of verbs used as predictive cues (semantically restrictive; neutral) in sentences (e.g., The {doctor/surgeon} {opened/moved} the box),

Partial dependency parsing for Irish [PDF]
, 2010 In this paper we present a partial dependency parser for Irish, in which Constraint Grammar (CG) rules are used to annotate dependency relations and grammatical functions in unrestricted Irish text.

Robust Grammatical Analysis for Spoken Dialogue Systems
, 1998 We argue that grammatical analysis is a viable alternative to concept spotting for processing spoken input in a practical spoken dialogue system. We discuss the structure of the grammar, and a model for robust parsing which combines linguistic sources of

The evolutionary psychology of syntax
Mind &Language, EarlyView.Linguists often characterize syntax in terms of combinatorial rules. But there is also a pragmatics to syntax in which communicators choose and tailor syntactic constructions for different communicative contexts. Great apes exposed to “language” combine elements creatively, but they show no skills in the pragmatics of syntax.

Phobos: A front-end approach to extensible compilers (long version) [PDF]
, 2002 This paper describes a practical approach for implementing certain types of domain-specific languages with extensible compilers. Given a compiler with one or more front-end languages, we introduce the idea of a "generic" front-end that allows the ...

Entitlement, Disagreement and Cognitive Disaster
Pacific Philosophical Quarterly, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Epistemologists debate whether it is rationally permissible for people to disagree, for example in politics or religion, while nevertheless regarding each other's opinions as reasonable. I consider this question in relation to Crispin Wright's Wittgensteinian notion of entitlement, that is, rational warrant without evidence.

Philosophical Perspectives, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To measure is to err. Serving both numeric and non‐numeric measurement, the language of measurement refers to margins of error, within which measurement reports locate their measurements. Such reports and reasoning from them invoke what is known and what is known to be known about error‐strewn measurement to derive and contrast the ...

Institutions, in time: Designing feedback pathways for shared infrastructure transitions
Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Electric utilities, challenged by a rapidly unfolding energy transition, use many informal institutions to bridge across technologies and sectors. Little is known, however, about how electric utility systems and other polycentric systems' institutions‐in‐use vary and evolve over time.
