In the changing realm of academic research, Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a significant force, altering the way knowledge is pursued and understood. "Enhancing Doctoral Dissertations Ethically with AI: A Comprehensive Guide" serves as an indispensable guide for doctoral students and educators on the frontline of this shift,…

There is currently limited investigation of readers' comprehension of AI simplified text from the perspective of educators, but such research can help to more effectively address the specific needs and perspectives of language teachers and learners regarding the comprehensibility of AI simplified text. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to…

This volume presents the second edition of the "Communicative Orientation of Language Teaching (COLT) Observation Scheme." Since the book's original publication, COLT has become well established as a research instrument in L2 teaching and learning. This new edition brings COLT into the 21st century by introducing digital versions of the…

The integration of artificial intelligence in language learning is transforming education by making language acquisition more personalized, efficient, and accessible. AI-powered tools, such as intelligent tutoring systems and adaptive learning platforms, enable learners to receive real-time feedback, customized lessons, and immersive experiences…

One of the major problems in artificial intelligence (AI) text generation is text organization; a poorly organized text can be unreadable or even misleading. A comparison of two AI approaches to text organization--McKeown's TEXT system and Rhetorical Structure Theory (RST)--shows that, although they share many assumptions about the nature of text,…

"The Sourcebook," a database of exemplars of representative problems in natural language understanding, is being developed for use in evaluating natural language processing systems. A literature search of the computational linguistics literature was used to identify the exemplars, which are analyzed in terms of the general issues…

Examines two primary roles played by natural language processing in storage and retrieval of information and outlines organization of natural language interface for data retrieval (question-answering system) and approaches being taken to text analysis. Research issues in computational linguistics and interactive knowledge acquisition are…

The product of researchers' efforts to develop a computer processor which distinguishes between relevant and irrelevant information in the database, Spreading Activation Processor for Information Encoded in Network Structures (SAPIENS) exhibits (1) context sensitivity, (2) efficiency, (3) decreasing activation over time, (4) summation of…

Computer-based Natural Language Processing (NLP) is the key to enabling humans and their computer-based creations to interact with machines using natural languages (English, Japanese, German, etc.) rather than formal computer languages. NLP is a major research area in the fields of artificial intelligence and computational linguistics. Commercial…
