  • Hybrid Long-Distance Functional Dependency Parsing
    HYBRID LONG-DISTANCE FUNCTIONAL DEPENDENCY PARSING THESIS presented to the Faculty of Arts of the University of Zurich for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Gerold Schneider from Nidau, Switzerland Accepted in the winter semester 2006/2007 on the recommendation of Professor Dr. Michael Hess and Dr. Paola Merlo Zurich, July 2008 i Hybrid Long-Distance Functional Dependency Parsing c 2008 Gerold Schneider [email protected] [email protected] ii Abstract This thesis proposes a robust, hybrid, deep-syntatic dependency-based pars- ing architecture and presents its implementation and evaluation. The architecture and the implementation are carefully designed to keep search-spaces small with- out compromising much on the linguistic performance or adequacy. The resulting parser is deep-syntactic like a formal grammar-based parser but at the same time mostly context-free and fast enough for large-scale application to unrestricted texts. It combines a number of successful current approaches into a hybrid, comparatively simple, modular and open model. This thesis reports three results: We suggest, implement, and evaluate a parsing architecture that is fast, ro- bust and efficient enough to allow users to do broad-coverage parsing of unrestricted texts from varied domains. We present a probability model and a combination between a rule-based competence grammar and a statistical lexicalized performance disambigua- tion model. We show that inherently complex linguistic problems can be broken down and approximated sufficiently well by less complex methods. In particu- lar (1) on the level of long-distance dependencies, the majority of them can be approximated by using a labelled DG, context-free finite-state based pat- terns, and post-processing, (2) on the level of long-distance dependencies, a slightly extended DG allows us to use mildly context-sensitive operations known from Tree-Adjoining Grammar (TAG), (3) on the base phrase level, parsing can successfully be approximated by the more shallow approaches of chunking and tagging.

    Pieces of the Body, Shards of the Soul: the Martyrs of Erik Ehn A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Rachel E. Linn May 2015 © 2015 Rachel E. Linn. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Pieces of the Body, Shards of the Soul: The Martyrs of Erik Ehn by RACHEL E. LINN has been approved for Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts by William F. Condee Professor of Interdisciplinary Arts Margaret Kennedy-Dygas Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT LINN, RACHEL E., Ph.D., May 2015, Interdisciplinary Arts Pieces of the Body, Shards of the Soul: Erik Ehn's Martyrs Director of Dissertation: William F. Condee This dissertation demonstrates that theatre has had a longstanding interest in the possibility of one object changing into another through miraculous means. Transubstantiation through art has occupied Western theatre from its roots in the medieval period. Contemporary theatre holds on to many deep-rooted assumptions about the performing body derived from medieval religious influence, both consciously and unconsciously. This influence is more pronounced in certain writers and artists, but it manifests itself as a lingering belief that the body (living and dead) is a source of power. This dissertation finds religious influence and an interest in the performing body’s power in the martyr plays of Erik Ehn. According to theologians like Andrew Greeley and art scholars like Eleanor Heartney, artists associated with the Catholic Church show an especially keen fascination with the body as a sacred object.
