Bøger i Text, Speech and Language Technology serien

This collection of papers takes linguists to the leading edge of techniques in generative lexicon theory, the linguistic composition methodology that arose from the imperative to provide a compositional semantics for the contextual modifications in meaning that emerge in real linguistic usage.

The eleven chapters of this book represent an original contribution to the field of multimodal spoken dialogue systems.

Yorick Wilks is a central figure in the fields of Natural Language Processing and Artificial Intelligence. This volume forms a two-part set together with Words and Intelligence I: Selected Works by Yorick Wilks, by the same editors.

This book celebrates the work of Yorick Wilks in the form of a selection of his papers which are intended to reflect the range and depth of his work. The selected papers reflect Yorick's contribution to both practical and theoretical aspects of automatic language processing.

This volume maps the watershed areas between two 'holy grails' of computer science: the identification and interpretation of affect - including sentiment and mood.

This book presents the latest research on web genres and emerging document types. It covers a wide range of web-genre focused subjects, such as: the identification of the sources of web genres, automatic web genre identification and structure-oriented models.

Computer parsing technology, which breaks down complex linguistic structures into their constituent parts, is a key research area in the automatic processing of human language.

Continued progress in Speech Technology in the face of ever-increasing demands on the performance levels of applications is a challenge to the whole speech and language science community.

This new Springer volume provides a comprehensive and detailed look at current approaches to automated question answering. It can also be used to teach graduate courses in Computer Science, Information Science and related disciplines.

This book is based on publications from the ISCA Tutorial and Research Workshop on Multi-Modal Dialogue in Mobile Environments held at Kloster Irsee, Germany, in 2002.

This book covers recent developments in the field, from multi-layered mark-up and standards to theoretical formalisms to applications. It presents results from international research in text technology, computational linguistics, hypertext modeling and more.

Parsing can be defined as the decomposition of complex structures into their constituent parts, and parsing technology as the methods, the tools, and the software to parse automatically. This book contains contributions from many of today's leading researchers in the area of natural language parsing technology.

Relates to the ability of a computer system to automatically produce interactive information presentations, taking into account the specifics about the user, such as needs, interests and knowledge, and engaging in a collaborative interaction that helps the retrieval of relevant information and its understanding on the part of the user.

For professional speech researchers, there is a rich technical literature covering many years of primary research in speech.

The main topic of this volume is natural multimodal interaction. Topics addressed include talking heads, conversational agents, tutoring systems, multimodal communication, machine learning, architectures for multimodal dialogue systems, systems evaluation, and data annotation.

This book is a comprehensive introduction to the statistical analysis of word frequency distributions, intended for computational linguists, corpus linguists, psycholinguists, and researchers in the field of quantitative stylistics.

In its nine chapters, this book provides an overview of the state-of-the-art and best practice in several sub-fields of evaluation of text and speech systems and components.

From a broad theoret ical perspective, the notion of predicate is central to research on the syntax semantics interface, the generative lexicon, the definition of ontology-based semantic representations, and the formation of verb semantic classes.

This is the first comprehensive overview of computational approaches to Arabic morphology. The subtitle aims to reflect that widely different computational approaches to the Arabic morphological system have been proposed.

This is the first book to provide an integrated view of preposition from morphology to reasoning, via syntax and semantics. The book presents a wide range of views and applications to various linguistic frameworks.

Following the introduction, fourteen papers which represent current research on intonation are organised into five thematic sections: (I) Overview of Intonation, (II) Prominence and Focus, (III) Boundaries and Discourse, (IV) Intonation Modelling, and (V) Intonation Technology.
