underspecification

How does he arrive at the underspecification in (34)?

In the course of the construction process underspecification, connected for instance with scope or pronominals, has to be resolved.

Restricted underspecification theory holds that features should only be underspecified if their values are predictable.

Feature geometry is easily compatible with theories of underspecification and can represent incomplete segments by missing nodes.

A concrete example of the latter phenomenon is semantic underspecification - meanings are not complete without some elements of context.

From this perspective, slips may be due to cognitive underspecification that can take a variety of forms - inattention, incomplete sense data or insufficient knowledge.

Indeterminacy by underspecification.

In theoretical linguistics, underspecification is a phenomenon in which certain features are omitted in underlying representations.

A core idea in deriving allomorphy in Distributed Morphology is underspecification.

Licensing and redundancy: underspecification in Optimality Theory.

A discussion email preceding this workshop referred to the purported benefits of underspecification in lexical entries, and how recent formalisms had made that possible.

Phonetic underspecification and target interpolation: An acoustic study of Marshallese vowel allophony.

Like Gall's law, The Law of Standards is essentially an argument in favour of underspecification.

Underspecification relies on the 'Maximal Subset Condition.'

Surface Underspecification of Tone in Chichewa", Phonology, Vol."

Some traditional topics of interest are: construction of meaning representations, semantic underspecification, anaphora resolution, presupposition projection, and quantifier scope resolution.

In K. van Deemter and S. Peters, editors, Semantic Ambiguity and Underspecification.

Some phonologists prefer not to specify a unique phoneme in such cases, since to do so would mean providing redundant or even arbitrary information - instead they use the technique of underspecification.

Beyond underspecification Much of what Roca discusses comes from Combinatorial Underspecification, as laid out in Archangeli and Pulleyblank 1994.

This is very similar to the modern view of linguistic underspecification, and relates to the Dynamic Turn in Semantics, which opposes the purely compositional view of arriving at sentence meaning.

Radical underspecification theory, on the other hand, also allows for traditionally binary features to be specified for only one value, where it is assumed that every segment not specified for that value has the other value.

An attempt to defend a system based on propositional meaning for semantic underspecification can be found in the generative lexicon model of James Pustejovsky, who extends contextual operations (based on type shifting) into the lexicon.

The concept of underspecification is also used in morphological theory, particularly to refer to cases in which a morpheme does not bear an entire set of feature-values, and is thus compatible with a wide range of potential morphological environments.

This is a use of underspecification, the idea that there is a 'default' morpheme that is inserted in the general case, and more specific morphemes that are inserted in more specific cases, when their featural specifications are met.

The following additional rules must also be applied by the delivering (or non-delivering) MTA: (a) If the provided O/R Address is an unambiguous underspecification of a known O/R Address, the O/R Addresses are equivalent.
