3. 7. Bilingual Lexical Access in Reading : Analyzing the Effect of Semantic Context on Non-Selective Access in Bilingual Memory

   University essay from Stockholms universitet/Centrum för tvåspråkighetsforskning

   Author : Mattias Kurnik; [2016]
   Keywords : Bilingualism; Lexical access; Non-selectivity; Reading; Sentence context; Cognates; Eye-tracking.; Tvåspråkighet; lexikal åtkomst; icke-selektivitet; läsning; meningskontext; kognater; eye-tracking.;

   Abstract : Recent empirical studies about the neurological executive nature of reading in bilinguals differ in their evaluations of the degree of selective manifestation in lexical access as implicated by data from early and late reading measures in the eye-tracking paradigm. Currently two scenarios are plausible: (1) Lexical access in reading is fundamentally language non-selective and top-down effects from semantic context can influence the degree of selectivity in lexical access; (2) Cross-lingual lexical activation is actuated via bottom-up processes without being affected by top-down effects from sentence context.

4. 8. Instance-based ontology alignment using decision trees

   University essay from Institutionen för datavetenskap; Tekniska högskolan

   Author : Tahereh Boujari; [2012]
   Keywords : Biomedical ontologies; ontology alignment; decision tree classifier;

   Abstract : Using ontologies is a key technology in the semantic web. The semantic web helps people to store their data on the web, build vocabularies, and has written rules for handling these data and also helps the search engines to distinguish between the information they want to access in web easier.

5. 9. Effects of Suprasegmental Features on the Processing of Spoken Words in the Human Brain: Evidence from Mismatch Negativity (MMN)

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Engelska; Lunds universitet/Masterprogram: Språk och språkvetenskap

   Author : Hatice Zora; [2011]
   Keywords : language processing; brain; lexical access; word recognition; event-related potentials ERP ; mismatch negativity MMN ; stress perception; fundamental frequency; intensity; Languages and Literatures;

   Abstract : The study reported in the present paper aimed to determine the effect of prosodic cues on automatic word processing in the brain by comparing the mismatch negativity (MMN) component of the event-related potentials (ERP) elicited by isolated words and pseudowords. More specifically, it attempted to explore the influence of changes in certain suprasegmental cues such as fundamental frequency and intensity on the perception of linguistic stress patterns by native speakers of American English.
