Toward a Principle-Based Translator by Dorr, Bonnie J.

“…A principle-based computational model of natural language translation consists of two components: (1) a module which makes use of a set of principles and parameters to transform the source language into an annotated surface form that can be easily converted into a "base" syntactic structure; and (2) a module which makes use of the same set of principles, but a different set of parameter values, to transform the "base" syntactic structure into the target language surface structure. …”

Hybrid pattern matching for complex ontology term recognition by Kim, Jung-jae., Tuan, Luu Anh.

“…Previous approaches of statistical analysis and syntactic pattern matching have such limitations that they do not consider relations between words and that their handcrafted patterns are expensive and show low coverage, respectively. …”

Does semantics aid syntax? An empirical study on named entity recognition and classification by Zhong, Xiaoshi, Cambria, Erik, Hussain, Amir

“…In this paper, we empirically examine whether named entity classification improves the performance of named entity recognition as an empirical case of examining whether semantics improves the performance of a syntactic task. To this end, we firstly specify the way to determine whether a linguistic task is a syntactic task or a semantic task according to both syntactic theory and semantic theory. …”

Reading strategies of average and weak ESL readers: a case study by Spykerman, Angeline

“…The findings shows that both groups of readers depended extensively on graphophonic cues and were less efficient in using syntactic and semantic cues. Qualitative analysis of the miscues show that when the readers did resort to the syntactic and semantic cues, the average readers produced better quality miscues. …”

Form Attributes to Measure and Understand Aesthetic Preferences by Saadi, Jana I, Yang, Maria C, Chong, Leah

“…<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>The aesthetics of a product is critical to its desirability, and can be described in terms of syntactics and semantics. Syntactic aesthetics is an objective description based on the form and configuration of a product, while semantic aesthetics is a subjective interpretation of the form and gestalt of a product. …”

Comparing two corpus-based methods for extracting paraphrases to dictionary-based method by Ho, Chuk Fong, Azmi Murad, Masrah Azrifah, Abdul Kadir, Rabiah, C. Doraisamy, Shyamala

“…Most of the existing methods extract paraphrases from different types of corpora by using syntactic-based approaches. Since a syntactic-based approach relies on the similarity of context to identify and capture paraphrases, other than paraphrases, other terms which tend to appear in a similar context such as loosely related terms and functionally similar yet unrelated terms tend to be extracted. …”
