Marlin, Marjorie; Barron, Nancy – 1971
This paper discusses in some detail the procedural areas of reconstruction and automatic processing used by the Classroom Interaction Project of the University of Missouri's Center for Research in Social Behavior in the analysis of classroom language. First discussed is the process of reconstruction, here defined as the "process of adding to…

Hardman-de-Bautista, M. J.
The three extant members of the Jaqi (Jaqimara) family, Aymara, Jaqaru and Kawki, are spoken by over one million people primarily in Peru and Bolivia, but earlier members of the Jaqimara family were probably spoken throughout the whole area of present-day Peru. This paper gives an outline of some of the salient structural features of these…

Szolovits, Peter; And Others – 1977
This is a description of the motivation and overall organization of the OWL language for knowledge representation. OWL consists of a linguistic memory system (LMS), a memory of concepts in terms of which all English phrases and all knowledge of an application domain are represented; a theory of English grammar which tells how to map English…

Wilks, Yorick – 1975
The course in parsing English is essentially a survey and comparison of several of the principal systems used for understanding natural language. The basic procedure of parsing is described. The discussion of the principal systems is based on the idea that "meaning is procedures," that is, that the procedures of application give a parsed…

Kaplan, Ronald M. – 1971
This paper describes the notation and underlying organization of an augmented, recursive-transition network grammar and illustrates how such a grammar is a natural medium for expressing and explaining a wide variety of facts about the psychological processes of sentence comprehension. A general discussion of transformational grammar and…

Ahmad, K.; And Others – Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing Bulletin, 1978
Some of the problems facing undergraduates learning Russian can be dealt with effectively by using an online computer. A Russian numerals drill program (RUNEX) is described which aims to help the student in tackling the morphological arbitrariness and some aspects of the syntax of the Russian numerals. Paradigms are given for the numerals five,…

Schank, Roger C.; Wilks, Yorick – 1973
There is a need for a new kind of linguistic theory which, while being concerned with both generation and analysis, must include the roles of memory, non-linguistic knowledge, and inference. The role of logic is diminished according to such a theory because inference has no real logical content. Meaning must be studied with respect to the actual…

Winograd, Terry – 1971
This paper describes a system for the computer understanding of English. The system answers questions, executes commands, and accepts information in normal English dialogue. It uses semantic information and context to understand discourse and to disambiguate sentences. It combines a complete syntactic analysis of each sentence with a heuristic…

Ornan, Uzzi – Association for Literary and Linguistic Computing Bulletin, 1978
The ability of the computer to generate output not included in the input may be used for linguistic as well as for computational input. The ability to accept linguistic data and process it according to a certain program seems to be a promising field for investigation. Progress in this field may strengthen the assumption that the computer can be…

Price, James D. – 1971
The final part of a four-part report of research on the development of a computerized, phrase-structure grammar of modern Hebrew describes the computerized algorithm for analyzing the sentences generated based on a complex-constituent-phrase structure grammar. The first section here discusses a structural model for modern Hebrew; the second…

Mepham, Michael S. – 1967
This discussion of the use of computer programming in syntactic analysis covers three major points: (1) a review of basic notions in automatic grammars; (2) a description of the grammar used in a pilot project which analysed the linguistic content of methods of teaching foreign languages; and (3) proposals on the application of the same techniques…

Price, James D. – 1971
This first part of a four-part report of research on the development of a computerized, phrase-structure grammar of modern Hebrew presents evidence to demonstrate the need for material to train teachers of Semitic languagues in the theory of grammar. It then provides a discussion of the research already done on the application of computational…

Price, James D. – 1971
The second part of the four-part report of research on the development of a computerized, phrase-structure grammar of modern Hebrew describes the application of a generalized complex-constituent-phrase structure grammar to modern Hebrew. This volume discusses the details of the grammar: limitations, input and output, symbols, rules, tree diagrams,…
