We do this in a fully abstract setting which applies to any class of purely relational models that label the points in their domain with some finite labeling alphabet. This includes, for example, labeled trees and graphs. The actual structure of the class of intended models only shows up in interpreting the abstract characterizations of the definable sets in terms of the structure of the models themselves.","PeriodicalId":298538,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th Meeting on the Mathematics of Language","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115851858","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, these characterizations operate over very different representations, including string encodings of c-command relations as well as tiers projected from derivation trees. We present a way to unify these approaches via sensing tree automata over Minimalist grammar dependency trees. Sensing tree automata are deterministic top-down tree automata that may inspect the labels of all daughter nodes before assigning them specific states. It is already known that these automata cannot correctly enforce all movement dependencies in Minimalist grammars, but we show that this result no longer holds if one takes into account several well-established empirical restrictions on movement. Sensing tree automata thus furnish a strong yet uniform upper bound on the complexity of syntactic dependencies.","PeriodicalId":298538,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th Meeting on the Mathematics of Language","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128345437","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that a consequence of the co-emission product is that each PDFA behaves like an independent factor in a joint distribution. Thus, the likelihood function decomposes in a natural way. We also show that the negative log likelihood function is convex. These results are motivated by the study of Strictly k-Piecewise (SPk) Stochastic Languages, which form a class of stochastic languages which is both linguistically motivated and naturally understood in terms of the coemission product of certain PDFAs.","PeriodicalId":298538,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th Meeting on the Mathematics of Language","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114162421","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Computational semantics in Agda-flat is distinguished from the approach based on Coq (Chatzikyriakidis and Luo, 2014) in that it allows an implementation of the classical, intensional semantic analyses of Montague (1973). That is, it synthesizes the modern dependent type theory and Montague intensional logic traditions in the computational semantics setting. To demonstrate this, we show how to replicate Montague’s analyses in the type theory of Zwanziger (2018), which closely corresponds to the Agda-flat system. Accompanying code type-checks these analyses in Agdaflat.","PeriodicalId":298538,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th Meeting on the Mathematics of Language","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116932600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the presuppositions derived by the Strong Kleene connectives are weak conditional presuppositions, which raise the “proviso problem” in cases where no filtering is motivated. Weak Kleene connectives do not face this problem, but only because their presuppositions are often too strong, and hence do not account for filtering phenomena altogether. While various mechanisms have been proposed to allow filtering without the proviso problem, their relations with the standard trivalent Kleene systems have remained unclear. This paper shows that by sacrificing truth-functionality, we uncover a rich domain of possibilities in trivalent semantics in between the Weak Kleene and Strong Kleene connectives. These systems derive presupposition filtering while avoiding the proviso problem. The Kleene-style operators studied are generalized to arbitrary binary functions, which further clarifies the connection between their different “repair” strategies and presupposition projection.","PeriodicalId":298538,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 16th Meeting on the Mathematics of Language","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124410224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
