A finite-state model of human sentence processing
2006
Proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Computational Linguistics and the 44th annual meeting of the ACL - ACL '06
We do not deny the limitations of finite-state models, but argue that our results show that their usefulness has been underestimated. ...

The RR ambiguity is often categorized as a syntactic ambiguity, but the results suggest that the ambiguity can be resolved locally and its processing difficulty can be detected by a finite state model. ...

There are essentially three observations that motivate the view that the processing of natural language is finite-state:
humans have a finite (small, limited, fixed) amount of memory available for language ...
The human language user, however, seems to process in linear time; humans understand longer sentences with no noticeable delay. ...

Structured abbreviation expansion in context
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We generate a large, open-source data set of ad hoc abbreviations. This data is used to study abbreviation strategies and to develop two strong baselines for abbreviation expansion ...
We consider the task of reversing these abbreviations in context to recover normalized, expanded versions of abbreviated messages. ...

The Problem of Universal Grammar with Multiple Languages: Arabic, English, Russian as Case Study
2016
International Journal of Advanced Computer Science and Applications
Nevertheless, Chomsky suggested the theory of language acquisition in children instinctively through a universal grammar that represents a universal grammar for all human languages. ...
In this paper, the criticism will be presented, and the conclusion that the general rule is not compatible with all human languages will be suggested by studying some human languages as a case namely Arabic ...

What artificial grammar learning reveals about the neurobiology of syntax
2012
Brain and Language
In this paper we examine the neurobiological correlates of syntax, the processing of structured sequences, by comparing FMRI results on artificial and natural language syntax. ...
The main findings of this study show that the left inferior frontal region centered on BA 44/45 is active during artificial syntax processing of well-formed (grammatical) sequence independent of local ...

An Associative Cortical Model of Language Understanding and Action Planning
[chapter]
2005
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this work we describe the implementation of a cell assembly-based model of several visual, language, planning, and motor areas to enable a robot to understand and react to simple spoken commands. ...
The brain representations of words and their referent actions and objects appear to be strongly coupled neuronal assemblies distributed over several cortical areas. ...
For example, processing of a sentence "Bot show red plum" would activate the state sequence S→Pp→OA1→O1→ok SPO corresponding to expectation of processing of a subject, a predicate, an object or attribute ...

A Novel Approach to Computer-Assisted Translation Based on Finite-State Transducers
[chapter]
2006
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
In this framework, a human translator interacts with a translation system that dynamically offers a list of translations that best completes the part of the sentence already translated. ...
Stochastic finite-state transducer technology is proposed to support this CAT system. The system was assessed on two real tasks of different complexity in several languages. ...
Those states that are reached at the end of the parsing process of the source sentence, over the SFST, are considered final states (as well as those states reachable with λ-transitions from them). ...

Language models often consist of a symbolic description of a language, such as a finite automaton (FA) or a context-free grammar (CFG), extended by a probability assignment to, for example, the transitions ...
