Zero-subject Resolution Using Linguistic Constraints and Defaults: The Case of Japanese Instruction Manuals

Machine Translation, 1999
This paper proposes a method for anaphora resolution of zero subjects in Japanese instruction manuals based on both the linguistic nature of expressions and the general ontology of the text type. In instruction manuals written in Japanese, zero subject is one of main reasons for ambiguity of sentences. In order to resolve them, we examined the property

Linguistic Analysis of Laser Speckle Contrast Images Recorded at Rest and During Biological Zero: Comparison With Laser Doppler Flowmetry Data

IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2013
Laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) is a newly commercialized imaging modality to monitor microvascular blood flow. Contrary to the well-known laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF), LSCI has the advantage of giving a full-field image of surface blood flow using simple instrumentation.

Panini's zero morphs as allomorphs in the complexity of linguistic context

2002
This paper examines omission (zero translation) and related translation strategies in the English-Swedish Parallel Corpus and, in particular, how translators handle various discourse expressions (connectors, particles) that do not have a straightforward equivalent in the target language.

AbstractThe Chinese language has encouraged the paradigm shift in linguistics away from Chomsky-style sentence-internal rules toward usage-based discourse. Analysts have debated two possibilities: is Chinese an allegedly ‘inferior’ and ambiguous language because it rests on the ‘three zeros’: zero subjects, zero anaphora, and zero tense?
