AUTOMATIC CONTEXT CLUSTERING FOR COMPUTER THESAURUS RUSSNET

While constructing the computer thesaurus RussNet, valency frames are specified for lexicon units. The attributes of valencies provide the capacity to distinguish thesaurus synonymic sets and to disambiguate analyses in the text parser. Valency frame features are based on the statistically steady context markers accompanying realisation of some lexical meaning in the text corpus. These features are morphologic, syntactic, and semantic. The automatic classification of corpus samples with unambiguous morphology annotation is discussed in the paper. The rough sorting of word contexts into lexical groups, i.e. semantic trees of RussNet thesaurus, is a pre-processing stage facilitating valency frame specification. The described procedure is fulfilled by means of morphology tag distribution in the context “window” for lemmas from particular trees and their gathering into distinguishable clusters. The preliminary results are to be considered.

RUSSNET VALENCY FRAME INHERITANCE IN AUTOMATIC TEXT PROCESSING

The automatic text processing system IDEOGRAPH is presented. It involves the formal grammar description of Russian (Rus4IR) and computer thesaurus RussNet. The special extension of RussNet, valency frames, is used for syntactic & lexical disambiguation. These frames comprise description of context markers, which are statistically consistent in the text corpus. The text fragments are interpreted in terms of proposition structures with core component – predicate with subject & object arguments referred to synonymic set ids in RussNet associated by hyponymy links into semantic trees. The inheritance of valency frame attributes is described concerning the structure of three semantic trees. This device may be used for phrase analysis specification, ranking of output structures, argument unification in inference.

DOCUMENT CLUSTERING USING METADATA

A new approach applied to document clustering is described in the paper. Modified LSA/LSI algorithm underlies our clustering method implemented in «Galaktika-Zoom» search and analysis system. The main problem being solved by means of approach presented in this paper is to separate document corpus into groups (clusters) on base of topic similarity, i.e., on the similarity of its’ feature vectors. In contrast to the traditional LSA implementation, base units for clustering process are words and word combination sets (information portraits) preliminary selected on statistic base. Elements of information portraits are lingual invariants, which statistically distinguish document sample.

HINT AS AN INSTRUMENT OF INDIRECT COMMUNICATION

Important semantic and pragmatic features of the hint as a language phenomenon are considered. For hinting at something speaker can use both linguistic forms and non-verbal actions with non-standard semantics. It is necessary to distinguish between genuine hint and regular hint. In opposite to indirect speech acts, using of hints presupposes an implicit way of communication.

HYPERTEXT, CONTEXT AND SUBTEXT IN SEARCH ENGINE “GALAKTIKA-ZOOM”

The analytical search engine “Galaktika-ZOOM” provides automated extraction of key words from textual data, the so called “information portrait”. Algorithmically, an infoportrait represents words and word combinations which are characteristic of the query text. In fact the infoportrait is the query’s paradigmatic context, or the sample’s hypertext. Inside this information paradigm one can define sense syntagms which do not exist in syntagmatic context, which we refer to as subtext.

AN EXTENDED EXPERIMENT ON AUTOMATIC DETECTION AND CORRECTION OF RUSSIAN MALAPROPISMS

Malapropism is a semantic error that replaces one content word with another one close in sound but having a different meaning. The paper discusses the results of an extended experiment that tests the earlier proposed method of malapropism detection and correction based on Internet statistics and a numerical Index of Semantic Compatibility.

THE INTERACTIVE APPROACH IN LINGUISTICS: LIMITS OF APPLICATION

The interactive approach makes part of the dynamic models of speech. It is based on the pragmatic principles and makes it possible to take into consideration the activity of both the Speaker and the Hearer while choosing proper words and forms. It is supposed that the Speaker imagines the way the Hearer can understand various variants that can express the necessary sense and chooses those that are the most easy for understanding. The paper shows that the approach can be useful for describing rules of usage for some synonyms or such grammar categories as the Russian aspect, etc. Still linguists should turn to it rather seldom.

THE PLACE OF INTERLANGUAGE DEVIATOLOGY IN GENERAL THEORY OF ERRORS

Deviatology is defined as a cognitive science that deals with deliberate and unwilling deviations of the norm within a wide field of human activity. Language deviatology is part of general deviatology, which includes the study of: * planned deviations of the norm, such as neologisms, jokes, stylistic tropes * non-planned deviations, such as slips of the tongue, lapses and speech errors. This classification of deviations applies equally to errors in the mother tongue as to errors in foreign languages. Speech errors in the mother tongue, which, theoretically, should not occur at all, are the object of stylistics while the errors in foreign languages, where there are few occurrences of conscious deviation of the norm, are studied in interlanguage deviatology.

MODELLING OF TRANSFORMATIONS OF NOMINATIVE STRUCTURES for the DECISION OF PROBLEMS OF FRENCH-RUSSIAN MACHINE TRANSLATION

Issues of construction of functional semantic models for the transformations of nominative structures within the framework for decision of problems of French-Russian (and Russian-French) machine translation are considered . The analysis of structures and the block of multiple logical semantic rules are being developed with the account of functional similarity and syntactic polysemy for nominative constructions on the material of the focal sample of parallel texts in the Russian and French languages. The problem of meaning transfer is decided on the basis of analysis of cognitive structures. The modelling is conducted as part of the project on creation of a multilingual linguistic processor on the basis of functional semantic approach.

DICTIONARIES IN TASKS OF AUTOMATIC PROCESSING OF PAIRS OF TRANSLATED TEXTS

Aligned parallel corpora are very important linguistic resources that help in many computational linguistic tasks such as machine translation, automatic dictionary compilation, linguistic machine learning, etc. Nevertheless, there are very few available linguistic resources of this type, especially for fiction texts, due to the difficulties of getting the texts and the high cost of alignment. In this paper, we describe an English-Spanish parallel corpus compiled of fiction texts and an evaluation of how a method of alignment based on linguistic data, namely, on the usage of bilingual dictionaries for calculation of the similarity, performs for fiction texts. The basic idea of the method is that if a meaningful word is present in the source text, then one of its dictionary translations should be present in the target text. Experimental results of alignment at paragraph level are given. The results show that this type of methods is applicable for fiction texts as well.

THEMATIC ANALYSIS OF NATURAL LANGUAGE TEXTS

Some applications of natural language texts need such form of text representation that is a result of a reasonable compromise between the wish to make the text shorter, saving its fundamental thematic purposes, and the wish to retell the source text in more detail. Some degree of this compromise should be achieved at text abstracting when creation of different storage of textual information, for example archives, personal libraries and so on. The paper discusses possible ways of achieving this compromise. The method has been implemented in the KONSPEKT software system.

Local Grammars in Corpus Calculus

An approach to linguistic analysis is presented that assumes that the description of sentences should be viewed as a demonstration of how they can act as variations of previously produced sentences. Five principles play a central role in such demonstrations: substitution of arguments, permutation, lexical functions, grammatical functions and predicate-argument schema identity. Among the conclusions we draw is the observation that a grammar is not so much a system of grammatical rules (of the phrase structure variety) but rather a set of operations that allow us to relate arbitrary sentences to other sentences and ultimately a set of «elementary» predicate-argument structures.

WHAT IS THIS THIS? PROPER NAMES and INDEFINITE DEFINITENESS

In Russian, combinations of the demonstrative pronoun этот ‘this’ with proper nouns seem interesting, since this determinant marks lower definiteness of a completely definite referent of the noun in the speaker’s world. Semantic and pragmatic properties of this construction are discussed.

THE FORMALISM OF R-ATTRIBUTES AS A UNIVERSAL MEANS OF SYNTACTIC GENERATION (based on its implementation in the RussLan system of Russian generation)

The formalism of R-attributes permits representing and processing structural relations and linguistic rules associated with them as relational attributes of the entities they are relevant to. It is efficient for a wide range of syntactic generation problems, from computing valency models for occasional lexemes to lexico-syn­tac­tic transformations.

СO-ORDINATION RECURSIVENESS AND PROJECTIVITY IN THE RUSSIAN TEXT

Сo-ordination analysis is a required constituent of automatic syntactic analysis. We discuss sentence structure properties in conjunction reduction , i.e. co-ordination projectivity and recursiveness in Russian sentence structure. These properties are of great importance for analysis zones delimitation in the process of constructing co-ordinative and subordinating links of main and dependent clauses, dangling participles and other isolated sentence parts, during the ambiguity resolution of punctuation marks and coordinating conjunctions and during the segment graph construction.

SEMANTIC LINGUISTIC PROCESSOR FOR AUTOMATIC FORMALIZATION OF AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL DATA

Direct and reverse linguistic processors for autobiographical data (job requests, Curriculum Vitae) written as natural language texts are considered. In such a texts, a person provides information about himself or herself in a free form: first name, middle name, surname, birthday, address, time and place of education, job experience with its periods, positions, responsibilities etc. These data may be expressed by different ways. The objective of the direct linguistic processor is to extract the data, standardize them and linking the objects: organizations with dates, job positions etc. This activity underlies the construction of knowledge structures. The objective of the reverse linguistic processor is to present these structures as natural language units (such as word combinations and sentences) and to map them in the fields of a formalized questionnaire or a structured site.

THE SEMANTICS OF GENITIVE RELATIONSHIPS REVISITED

This article presents a part of collective research of external possessor constructions in Russian. We claim that the use of this construction (there are about ten of them) is determined by a combination of factors. In this paper we analyze one of the most important factors namely the possessive relations (different semantic relations between possessor and possessee). Since there is no generally recognized classification of possessive relations we propose a new one based on a corpus research. We also present some important conclusions about the nature of possessive construction and semantics of genitive.

ON A POSSIBLE GRAMMAR OF CONCEPTUAL RELATIONS

To face some domain knowledge when analysing natural text we need to build semantic representation (SemR) comparable with the given domain knowledge structures. Does it mean that linguistic analysis has to be different for any text specific for the given domain? Not necessarily. In our approach a transition from linguistic SemR to conceptual units and relations specific for the domain passes through binary semantic relations (SemRel). The intended grammar consists of the basic list of SemRels plus transition rules.

Finding an identity, designing the identity: study of web-based communication

The paper presents an experimental research that uses a corpus of web-based communication portal www.rate.ee. This is the most popular website in Estonia, used by approximately one third of Estonian population. Users can present themselves through special personal webpages, rate each other’s pictures and create virtual social networks. Their motivation factors are communication and self-presentation with social feedback. Rate.ee environment supports different social actions, calculates the «fame» (popularity) of users etc. The author focuses on identity designing and language characteristics in this environment, that is to say: which markers and features can be used for promoting «virtual face» in the context of the web-based communication.

The paper discusses negation in Russian, expressed by the prefix ne- within deverbal nouns (e.g., nejavka ‘non-appearance’, nevmeshatel’stvo ‘non-intervention’). We identify three semantic types of negated nouns, depending on the aspectual properties of the negated event and the context in which the negated nominal occurs. Negation within deverbal nominals is in many substantial characteristics close to the typical verbal negation in Russian.

TOWARDS CONSTRUCTING SEMANTIC METALANGUAGE

The paper concerns the problem of tools which can be used in a semantic metalanguage designed for describing the semantics of natural language (NL). Is it necessary to base such semantic metalanguge on the natural language described – or one may rest upon some universal inventory of meanings? Some doubts are cast upon the thesis on the necessity of describing semantics of NL on the basis of the limited sublanguage of the NL described; this thesis is being upheld in a number of semantic theories. The semantic metalanguage may be built on universal meanings, and this possibility can be supported by the fact that even semantic metalanguges constructed on the base of sublanguges of NL cannot restrict themselves within limits of NL and include artificial elements. In the scientific apparatus for describing the surface levels of language structure – syntax, morphology and phonology – the specific character of language entities is not supposed to be mirrored by means of specific metalinguistic units oriented to the NL described.

The Whys and Hows of Ontological Semantics

The NLP Lab at Purdue University (NLPL) has co-founded and tested, in a number of applications, a knowledge- and meaning-based approach to NLP called ontological semantics (OS). Since 1999, NLPL cooperated with CERIAS in applying the approach to information assurance and security (IAS) tasks. This paper tries to handle the question why most in NLP today—and the entire Semantic Web enterprise—are still pursuing non-semantic methodologies, even in response to RFP with explicitly semantic and even ontological-semantic objectives. The paper offers some sociological, educational, and academic explanations for the «fear of semantics.»

SYSTEM FOR LINGUISTICALLY-BASED EVALUATION OF PSYCOLOGICAL PROFILES

We present a system designed for use by a psychologist in the analysis of a specific type of texts – texts of emotional autoreflexive writing. On the basis of linguistic analysis, the psychologist can make conclusions about the emotional state of a person or about the type of his personality. The system is designed to assist the psychologist. The system has the following features: automatic morphological analysis, calculation of various statistical parameters (frequencies, lexical richness, etc.). The data on words with emotional connotations are given separately because these words represent the person’s current condition. We implemented the mechanism for synchronization of measuring body temperature during text writing and the resulting text. Also, we describe the application of the system in another field – the analysis of political discourse in Mexico.

FUNDAMENTAL FREQUENCY AND ENHANCED WORD RECOGNITION

Fundamental frequency and its role in speech perception are analyzed with reference to professional and fiction texts. Subjects were exposed to the texts under white-noise masking and in the clear where the original words have been changed to their nonsense (artificial) ‘equivalents’. Recognition scores were correlated to the Topic-Comment structure, type of phonetic reduction, etc. One of the most important findings is a change in perceptual strategy depending on the text type (professional or fiction in our case). Fundamental frequency clues seem to be actively used to enhance word recognition, counterbalancing, to some extent, the poor quality of segmentals.

ON SENTENCE BOUNDARIES IN ORAL TEXTS IN LANGUAGES WITHOUT STABLE WRITTEN TRADITION

The paper considers the problem of fixing sentence boundaries in speech in languages without stable written tradition. In modern written texts the borders between sentences are distinctly marked so there is no problem to tell where one sentence comes to an end and another begins. A quite different situation arises as soon as we are to fix sentence borders in an oral text, especially in a language without stable written tradition. Analyzing the material of two practically unwritten languages of Siberia (Selkup and Ket) we examine the possibility of using some prosodic features as sentence boundary markers in speech.

RUSSIAN CULTURAL CONCEPTS IN THE EUROPEAN LINGUISTIC PERSPECTIVE: THE WORD PROBLEMA

The paper deals with the history and the actual status of the word problema ‘problem’ in Russian. In contemporary Russian it has acquired a meaning, roughly, ‘something that creates an obstacle for the normal course of events’ (U X-a problemy s Y-om), which appears as a semantic calque from English. It is closely linked to one of a key ideas of the Western culture and a series of key words expressing it (such as happy, OK, enjoy).

E-MAIL CORRESPONDENCE AS AN OBJECT OF LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS

E-mail correspondence is considered as a communicative genre characterized by a number of specific features that distinguishes it from other cognate speech genres. The analysis of e-mail correspondence in Russian reveals some important linguistic and psycholinguistic regularities of the spontaneous written speech production. It is argued that Russian e-mail correspondence in Latin transliteration constitutes an important and stable variant of Internet correspondence in Russian: this variant possesses its own specific features and may be responsible for the loosening of the Russian language norms.

LOGICAL PSYCHOLOGICAL STRUCTURE OF DISCUSSION

Three types of arguments: apodictic, eristic, sophistic, are considered taking into account the motivation and speech behavior of opponents. The structure of public text is viewed as a set comprising the seven (eight) elements: address, thesis, narration, description, proof, disproof, appeal (conclusion). The categories of persuasiveness and argumentativeness are grounded both logically and emotionally. The description is given of verbal confrontation devices.

GERMAN COMPOUND ADJECTIVES IN A DICTIONARY AND IN THE DISCOURSE

Our work is focused on the properties of German compound adjectives conveying the idea of comparison, the source of the empirical data being a large corpus of newspaper discourse. The number of such compounds occurring in the corpus amounts 412 and only one third of them can be found in the Big German-Russian Dictionary. This proportion needs explanation, and we try to determine the relevant formal, semantic and stylistic-pragmatic factors. Finally, prognostic conclusions are drawn concerning lexical-graphic applications.

FREE WORD ORDER AND MODELLING OF INVERSION

Language L is defined as having free word order if the relative order of any two sentence categories X, Y can be inverted: [X + Y] ? [Y + X]. This definition does not exclude languages with constraints on the placement of elements attached to sentence 1st , 2nd or 3d positions from the left boundary. At the same time, many languages with one statistically prevailing order, as SOV, SVO, VSO etc, lack constraints that block for less frequent orders. Presumably, all natural languages have pairs (or sets with n elements, n? 2) of sentences with one and the same structure, but different linear orders. We proceed from the assumption that for each pair/set of such sentences it is possible to establish the variant representing the basic order and get the derived orders from it. It is possible to get the derived order from the basic one by singling out the element that moves: {a + b + c} ? {b + a + tb + c}. The analysis in terms of Movement is preferable to the traditional description where e.g. Subject-Verb order is chosen as ‘basic’ and Verb-Subject order as ‘inverted’ and no attempt is made to prove that either of the elements in the group can move. Movement of elements can be formalized in a different way. The generative account (Fiengo, Chomsky) is counterfactual, since it does not explain the contexts with left-to-right Movement patterns: Movement patterns of this type are especially productive in languages with the so called Wackernagel’s law.
