Sentence processing
"... Sentence processing research investigates how people process the syntactic structure of sentences, with a particular interest in syntactic ambiguity. Two largely incompatible classes of theories dominate research on syntactic ambiguity resolution. According to two-stage theories, the sentence proces ..."

Memory Capacity And Sentence Processing
- In Proceedings of the 28th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics
, 1990
"... The limited capacity of working memory is intrinsic to human sentence processing, and therefore must be addressed by any theory of human sentence processing. This paper gives a theory of garden-path effects and processing overload that is based on simple assumptions about human short term memory cap ..."

Anticipatory processes in sentence processing
- Language and Linguistic Compass
, 2008
"... Abstract Anticipation is an essential ability for the human cognitive system to survive in its surrounding environment. The present article will review previous research on anticipatory processes in sentence processing (comprehension). I start by pointing out past research carried out with inadequa ..."

Empirical Studies of Sentence Processing
, 2000
"... My PhD thesis concerns a recurrent neural network model which will be trained to comprehend and produce sentences drawn from a fairly large subset of English grammar. In order to validate and better understand the model, its performance will be compared to that of humans on a wide range of sentence ..."

processing tests. The purpose of this chapter is to summarize a variety of reliable empirical findings regarding sentence processing and to describe how the relevant syntactic structures and related constraints will be incorporated in the language on which the network will be trained.
SENTENCE PROCESSING AS ABDUCTION+DEDUCTION
"... A sentence processing model is presented, based on abductive and deductive inference. We show that the model makes correct predictions for an array of data involving Dutch, German, Japanese, and Hindi center-embedding constructions. It has comparable or better empirical coverage with respect to seve ..."

Connectionist sentence processing in perspective
- Cognitive Science
, 1999
"... The emphasis in the connectionist sentence-processing literature on distributed representation and emergence of grammar from such systems can easily obscure the often close relations between connectionist and symbolist systems. This paper argues that the Simple Recurrent Network (SRN) models propose ..."

Intonation and sentence processing
, 2003
"... This paper summarises recent research concerning the relationship between intonation and the syntactic analysis of sentences. After introductory comments on the nature of intonation, we discuss methodological problems in determining the relationship between syntactic and intonational structure, and ..."

of whether correspondences between syntactic and intonation structure are speaker- or listener-oriented, we review experimental data on the role of intonation in sentence comprehension, and finally discuss the position of intonation in the sentence processing mechanism.
