  1. 1. Konzeptuelle Struktur und materielle Manifestation : Nominale Part-Whole-Konstruktionen aus einer typologischen Perspektive

    Författare :Daniel Ormelius; Tyska; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; typological patterns; spatial representations; conceptual structures; morphosyntactic structures; ‘part-whole’ constructions; boundedness; internal structure; quantification; referentiality; quantifier phrase; noun phrase; determiner phrase; German language and literatur; Tyska språk och litteratur ;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to investigate the relation between intrasubjective mental representations – ‘conceptual structures’ – and their intersubjectively available material manifestation, in particular morphosyntactic representations. Such an investigation presupposes the analysis of not only extralinguistically established modules but also of structural levels that are inherent components of the language system. LÄS MER

  2. 2. An inquiry into Minimalist phrase structure

    Författare :Jonathan White; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Nyckelord :phrase structure; syntax; syntactic theory; the Minimalist program; result clauses; circumstance adjuncts;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis takes as its starting point the proposal in Kayne (1994) that all syntactic structures are underlyingly spec-head-complement, and that they are right-branching. I will investigate this proposal taking data from English degree constructions, namely result clauses and comparatives. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Towards a discourse-based model of English sentence intonation

    Författare :Merle Horne; Allmän språkvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; intonation; discourse; text-to-speech; information focus; pitch; F0; grammatical functions; coreference; prominence; baseline; phonological grid; F0 range; declination; contrastive prominence; syntactic parallelism; phonological phrase; rhythm rule; sentence stress; constrative stress; Raddoppiamento Sintattico; Monosyllabic Destressing; intonational phrase; speech chunk; speech synthesis;

    Sammanfattning : English non-expressive, declarative sentence intonation is examined in a discourse context. A rule system, geared to a text-to-speech context is developed which assigns sentence prominences related to information focus. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Compound Processing for Phrase-Based Statistical Machine Translation

    Författare :Sara Stymne; Lars Ahrenberg; Joakim Nivre; Alexander Fraser; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Machine translation; compounds; factored translation; statistical machine translation; computational linguistics; Computational linguistics; Datorlingvistik; Language technology; Språkteknologi; Computer science; Datavetenskap;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis I explore how compound processing can be used to improve phrase-based statistical machine translation (PBSMT) between English and German/Swedish. Both German and Swedish generally use closed compounds, which are written as one word without spaces or other indicators of word boundaries. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Text Harmonization Strategies for Phrase-Based Statistical Machine Translation

    Författare :Sara Stymne; Lars Ahrenberg; Joakim Nivre; Nizar Habash; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Statistical machine translation; text harmonization; compound words; definiteness; reordering; unknown words;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis I aim to improve phrase-based statistical machine translation (PBSMT) in a number of ways by the use of text harmonization strategies. PBSMT systems are built by training statistical models on large corpora of human translations. This architecture generally performs well for languages with similar structure. LÄS MER
