Processing of Underlying and Surface Phonological Representations In Visual Word Recognition
… phonological unit selected for the study was the underlying and surface representations of word-final two-consonant codas. The underlying representation consisted of both consonants whereas the surface representation had the final consonant dropped. A set of three phonological lexical decision …

Underspecification in Korean Phonology (Morphology)
… grammar. By eliminating redundant features from underlying representation and specifying only unpredictable features, underspecification system constrains possible types of phonological processes in a given grammar.

The Description and Comparison of Feature Retention Patterns for Children with Phonological Impairment Developmental Apraxia of Speech and Typically Developing Children.
… retention percentages as well as percent correct underlying representation (PCUR) were calculated for each child.</p> <p>Both PI and TD groups retained place the least, voice the most, with manner falling in between. These patterns corresponded with what past researchers found in studies of …

Verification of full functional correctness for imperative linked data structures
… of the data structures without revealing the underlying representation. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proof language and integrated reasoning approach, and provide valuable insight into the specification and verification of imperative linked data structures.

Paired speech and gesture generation in embodied conversational agents
… gesture, and intonation are based on the same underlying representation of real-estate properties, discourse information structure, intentional and attentional structures, and a mechanism to update the common ground between the user and the agent. Algorithms have been implemented to analyze the …

Neutral Tone in Mandarin: Representation and Interaction with Utterance-level Prosody
… NT have led to a prevailing view that it has no underlying phonological specification. However, research has focused more on how the surface pitch variations of NT are realized rather than the underlying representation of NT. In contrast, morphological, sociolinguistic and diachronic work on NT …

A Bayesian theory of mind approach to nonverbal communication for human-robot interactions : a computational formulation of intentional inference and belief manipulation
… behaviors, and also demonstrate their shared underlying representation. We use our computational framework to model engagement/attention in storytelling interactions. Storytelling is an interaction form that is mutually regulated between storytellers and listeners where a key dynamic is the …

A Discrete Optimization Approach to Solve a Reader Location Problem for Estimating Travel Times
… that vary in the degree of tightness of their underlying linear programming relaxations. Four such model representations are explored by using the software package, AMPL-CPLEX 6.5.3, to solve them for some sample transportation networks. The sensitivity of the reader locations to the different …

The internal structure of Affricates.
… evidence not only justify the proposed affricate representation but, in so doing, validate the idea that the distribution of segments in inventories provides a valuable source of information about the featural makeup of those segments. The second body of evidence consists of analyses of rules that …

Social and Linguistic Factors Conditioning the Glottal Stop in Nicaraguan Spanish
… vowels at the word boundary where there is no underlying segment (the V#V environment), e.g. [la.ʔo.la] for <i>la ola</i> 'the wave'. The studies to date on the glottal stop in dialects of Spanish, i.e. Argentinian/Paraguayan (Sanicky 1989, Thon 1989), Yucatan (Lope Blanch 1987), Philipino …

Mechanisms of hippocampal relational memory binding
This work is about the mental representations that underlie memory for the complex compositions of people, places, things, and events that comprise everyday mnemonic experience, the mechanisms that bind, encode, and reconstruct these representations, and the mathematical frameworks that describe …
