   Author : Christopher Allen; Geoffrey Barnbrook; Christopher Gledhill; Susan Hunston; UK Univeristy of Birmingham; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Local grammar; Biomedical English; Corpus-driven; Humaniora; Humanities;

   Abstract : This thesis puts forward a specialized, functional grammar of cause and effect withinthe sub-genre of biomedical research articles. Building on research into the localgrammars of dictionary definitions and evaluation, the thesis describes the applicationof a corpus-driven methodology to description of the principal lexical grammaticalpatterns which underpin causation in scientific writing.

4. 2. Probes, pronouns and binding in the Minimalist Program

   Author : Fredrik Heinat; Engelska; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Grammar; probes; agree; pronouns; distributed morphology; syntax; minimalims; semantics; semiotics; Grammatik; semantik; semiotik;

   Abstract : In chapter 2, I claim that not only heads, but phrases, too, are probes. I show that there are in fact no theoretical and empirical problems involved if we abandon the stipulation that only heads may probe. In chapter 3, I explore the structure of nominal expressions. READ MORE

5. 3. Apokoinou in Swedish talk-in-interaction : A family of methods for grammatical construction and the resolving of local communicative projects

   Author : Niklas Norén; Per Linell; Jan Anward; Auli Hakulinen; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; apokoinou; ethno-methods; dialogical grammar; utterance construction methods; syntax as process; prosody; grammatical constructions; communicative projects; Swedish talk-in-interaction; conversation analysis; interactional linguistics; apokoinou; etnometoder; dialogisk grammatik; metoder för yttrandekonstruktion; syntax som process; prosodi; samtalsgrammatiska konstruktioner; kommunikativa projekt; tal-i-interaktion; samtalsanalys; interaktionell lingvistik; Languages and linguistics; Språkvetenskap;

   Abstract : I den här avhandlingen undersöks den grammatiska samtalskonstruktionen apokoinou i svenskt samtalsspråk. I kontrast till traditioner av normativ grammatik och teoretiska perspektiv på språk, där apokoinou och besläktade fenomen har exkluderats från grammatisk beskrivning eller blivit behandlade som produkter av olika typer av misstag, är apokoinou här re-specificerad som en i högsta grad funktionell grammatisk resurs och metod för att åstadkomma lokala kommunikativa projekt i samtal.

6. 4. Constraints for Membership in Formal Languages under Systematic Search and Stochastic Local Search

   Author : Jun He; Pierre Flener; Justin Pearson; Yves Deville; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; constraint programming; regular constraint; automaton constraint; context-free grammar constraint; solution neighbourhood; counter automaton; Datavetenskap; Computer Science;

   Abstract : This thesis focuses on constraints for membership in formal languages under both the systematic search and stochastic local search approaches to constraint programming (CP). Such constraints are very useful in CP for the following three reasons: They provide a powerful tool for user-level extensibility of CP languages. READ MORE
