Sentence 782 of The New C Standard - Jones (2003)   (Correct)

....could be said to have a Levenstein distance of one, based on the word as the edit unit. The issue of converting character sequences to sounds is discussed Found one elsewhere. The following characlors mapping to sound studies have attempted to measure the sound similarity of two words: Frisch [89] describes a method of computing a similarity metric for phonological segments (this is used to calculate a relative degree of confusability of two segments, which is then compared against English speech error data) Lutz and Greene [180] describe a system that attempts to predict probable ....

Stochastic Phonology - Pierrehumbert   (Correct)

....patterns with low expected values are not, in fact, expected to occur. The absence of a complex pattern requires no explanation if the expected count is under one. Lastly, comparison of observed counts to counts expected under a null hypothesis permits a formal treatment of soft constraints. Frisch (1996) uses logistic equations to describe the relationship observed in Arabic between phonemic similarity and the statistical strength of the OCP. In this treatment, a hard (or fully grammatical) constraint emerges as the mathematical limit of a soft tendency. The relation between hard and soft ....

....results which have motivated the concept of a lexical network. However, a growing body of work demonstrates the implications of the lexical network for traditional concerns of phonology. Bybee (2001) surveys findings on productivity, regularization, and historical change. Dell (2000) and Frisch (1996, 2000) discuss the role of similarity and frequency in phonology. Hay (2000) shows how lexical networks give rise to degrees of morphological relatedness and decomposibility. She also shows how models of morphological processing such as Baayen and Schreuder (1999) give rise to both the trends and ....

The Emergence of the Unmarked Pronoun: Chichewa Pronominals in.. - Bresnan (1997)   (1 citation)  (Correct)

....value. 1 Such features give rise to benign ( permanent , inherent , or trivial ) underspecification in the sense of Steriade 1995. With this type of representation, the meaning or function of an underspecified pronoun is not fully determinate from its featural characterization alone (cf. Frisch 1996, Reiss 1997) but depends on its relation to other pronominal elements in the paradigm. Thus our representations provide a good formal model of the Jakobsonian conception of morphosyntactic markedness, which as we see from the example of the she ass and the donkey, allows for precisely this ....

....of the issues of markedness, Optimality Theory, and Chichewa morphosyntax addressed herein. I alone am responsible for errors. 1 For cases where one value of an equipollent feature does not appear to be universally the marked value, we may use sets of privative features (Steriade 1995, Frisch 1996), whose values are inherently incompatible. For example, a pair of privative features (e.g. top and foc) could replace a binary equipollent feature (e.g. Sigma new] as in Choi 1996) the fact that a single element cannot simultaneously have both properties top and foc would follow from ....
