  • Geis (1973) has provided various properties of the subjects and by + Gerund Phrase (GerP) in English causative constructions. Among them, the two main issues of Geis's analysis are as follows: unlike Lakoff (1965; 1966), the subject of English causative constructions, including causative-inchoative verbs such as liquefy, first of all, should be acts or events, not persons, and the by + GerP in the construction is a complement of the causative verbs. In addition to these issues, Geis has provided various data exhibiting other idiosyncratic properties and proposed some transformational rules such as the Agent Creation Rule and rule orderings to explain them. Against Geis's claim, I propose that English causative verbs require either Proper nouns or GerP subjects and that the by + GerP in the constructions as a Verbal Modifier needs Gerunds, whose understood Affective-agent subject is identical to the subject of causative verbs with respect to the semantic index value. This enables us to solve the two main issues. At the same time, the other properties Geis mentioned also can be easily accounted for in Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG) by positing a few lexical constraints. On this basis, it is shown that given the few lexical constraints and existing grammatical tools in HPSG, the constraint-based analysis proposed here gives a simpler explanation of the properties of English causative constructions provided by Geis without transformational rules and rule orderings.

  • Floating quantifiers(FQs) in English exhibit both universal and language specific proper- ties This paper discusses how such syntactic and semantic characteristics can be explained in terms of a constraint-based, lexical approach to the floating quanti- fer construction within the framework of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar(HPSG). Based on the assumption and FQs are base-generated VP modifiers, this paper proposes and account in which the semantic contribution of FQs consists of a "lexically retrieved" universal quantifier taking scope over the VP meaning.P meaning.

  • This paper presents a method for automatically detecting Korean prosodic boundaries using both acoustic and grammatical information for the performance improvement of speech information processing systems. While most of previous works are solely based on grammatical information, our method utilizes not only grammatical information constructed by a Maximum-Entropy-based grammar model using 10 grammatical features, but also acoustical information constructed by a GMM-based acoustic model using 14 acoustic features. Given that Korean prosodic structure has two intonationally defined prosodic units, intonation phrase (IP) and accentual phrase (AP), experimental results show that the detection rate of AP boundaries is 82.6%, which is higher than the labeler agreement rate in hand transcribing, and that the detection rate of IP boundaries is 88.7%, which is slightly lower than the labeler agreement rate.

  • As a subtype of English relative clause constructions, free relative constructions like what John ate in I ate what John ate exhibit complicated syntactic and semantic properties. In particular, the constructions have mixed properties of nominal and verbal: they have the internal syntax of sentence and the external syntax of noun phrase. This paper provides a constraint-based approach to these mixed constructions, and shows that simple constructional constraints are enough to capture their complexities. The paper begins by surveying the properties of the constructions. In discusses two types(Specific and nonspecific) of free relatives, their ,lexical restrictions nominal properties and behavior with respect to extraposition, piped piping and stacking Following these it sketches the basic framework of the HPSG(Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar) which is of relevance in this paper. As the main part, the paper presents a constraint- based analysis in which tight interactions between grammatical constructions and a rich network of inheritance relations play important roles in accounting for the basic as well as complex properties of the constructions is question.

  • Die dritte Konstruktion zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass Elemente, die vom zu-Infinitiv im 'Nachfeld' $abh\"{a}ngen$, links vom Matrixverb auftreten. Die dritte Konstruktion weist sowohl Eigenschaften auf, die sie als $inkoh\"{a}rent$ ausweist, als auch Eigenschaften, die als syntaktische Reflexe von $Koh\"{a}renzbildung$ bezeichnet werden $k\"{o}nnen$. Das $vollst\"{a}ndig$ extraponierte zu-Infinitivkomplement ist immer satzwertig $(inkoh\"{a}rent),\;w\"{a}hrend$ der intraponierte zu-Infinitiv sowohl nicht-satzwertig $(koh\"{a}rent)$, als auch satzwertig $(inkoh\"{a}rent)$ sein kann. In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird eine constraint-basierte Analyse zur Synatx der dritten Konstruktion im Deutschen dargestellt. Die Analyse wird im Rahmen der Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG) $durchgef\"{u}hrt$, bei der ich wooer von der Bewegung der Komplemente aus dem Nachfeld noch von der Linearen $Pr\"{a}zedenz$ mit neuen Merkmalen ausgehe, sondem von der Typenhierarchie der Konstruktionentypen mit relevanten $Lexikoneintr\"{a}gen$. Es wird zu zeigen versucht, dass die dritte Konstruktion ein Komplementationstyp von non-flip-phrase und partial-vp-extra­phrase ist.

  • This paper presents a unified approach to multiple nominative and accusative constructions in Korean. We identify 16 semantic relations holding between two consecutive noun phrases (NPs) in multiple case marking constructions, and propose each semantic relation as a licensing condition on double case marking. We argue that the multiple case marking constructions are merely the sequences of double case marking, which are formed by dextrosinistrally sequencing the pairs of the same-case marked NPs of same or different type. Some appealing consequences of this proposal include a new comprehensive classification of the sequences of same-case NPs and a straightforward account of some long standing problems such as how the additional same-case NPs are licensed, and in what respects the multiple nominative marking and the multiple accusative marking are alike and different from each other.

  • Bei vorliegender Arbeit wurde eine sogenannte Diskursstrukturgrammatik (DSG) vorgestellt, die auf die $Erkl\"{a}rung$ von verschiedenen diskursbezogenen $Ph\"{a}nomenen$ zielt, und derer Grundlage auf 'Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG)' basiert. Im Abschnitt 2 wurde die Syntax von DSG gegeben. Die Syntax besteht aus Grundsymbolen und Regeln. Die Grundsymbole teilen sich wiederum in grundlegende Diskurseinheiten und logische Konnektoren ein. Entsprechend der Syntax wurde die Semantik im Abschnitt 3 gegeben. Insbesondere habe ich das Diskursrelation­Prinzip aufgestellt, nach dem die Information eines Konnektoren die Bedeutung der neu gebildeten Diskurseinheit bestimmt. Im letzten Abschnitt 4 habe ich anhand der DSG zwei Beispiele analysiert, um zu zeigen, wie die DSG funktioniert. Von der Theorie aus gesehen, ist die vorgestellte DSG nicht $vollst\"{a}ndig$. Deshalb werde ich weiter die DSG systematisieren, indem ich andere $Ph\"{a}nomene$ im Bereich des Diskurses wie Anapher, Tempus usw. behandle

현대 독일어 제2형 분사의 형용사 전환에 대한 제약 (Constraints on the Conversion of the Participle II in German)

  • This paper addresses the issue of constraints on the conversion of the participle II in German, proposing a constraint-based lexical semantic approach. I argue against the widely accepted syntactic view which is based on the dichotomous distinction of intransitive verbs, which has been advanced by the Unaccusative Hypothesis [Perlmutter (1978)]. Several arguments are also given against the semantic view which is based on some aspectual notions such as 'telicity', 'transformativity' or 'terminativity'. The crucial constraints on the conversion of the participle II in German, it is argued, is instead two lexical semantic entailments, movement with a definite change of location and affectedness. These and other lexical semantic entailments in the sense of Dowty (1991) are encoded into the multiple inheritance type hierarchy of qfpsoa. The proposal made in this paper is based on the multiple inheritance hierarchy which is envisaged in a recent framework of head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar.

  • Evaluation of multilingual translation fundamentally involves measurement of meaning equivalences between the formally mapped discourses/texts of SL(source language) and TL(target language) both represented by a metalanguage called IL(interlingua). Unlike a usaal uni-directional MT(machine translation) model(e.g.:SL $\rightarrow$ analysis $\rightarrow$ transfer $\rightarrow$ generation $\rightarrow$ TL), a bi-directional(by 'negotiation') model(i.e.: SL $\rightarrow$ IL/S $\leftrightarrow$ IL $\leftrightarrow$ IL/T \leftarrow TL) is proposed here for the purpose of evaluating multilingual, not merely bilingual, translation. The IL, as conceived of in this study, is an English-based predicate logic represented in the framework of MRS(minimal recursion semantics), an MT-oriented off-shoot of HPSG(Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar). In addition, a list of semantic and pragmatic checkpoints are set up, some being optional depending on the kind and use of the translation, so sa to have the evaluation of translation fine-grained by computing matching or mismatching of such checkpoints.
