  2. Bootstrapping (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(linguistics)

    Bootstrapping is a term used in language acquisition in the field of linguistics. It refers to the idea that humans are born innately equipped with a mental faculty that forms the basis of language. It is this language faculty that allows children to effortlessly acquire language. [1] As a process, bootstrapping can be divided into different ...

  3. Semantic bootstrapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_bootstrapping

    Semantic bootstrapping. Semantic bootstrapping is a linguistic theory of child language acquisition which proposes that children can acquire the syntax of a language by first learning and recognizing semantic elements and building upon, or bootstrapping from, that knowledge. [1] This theory proposes that children, when acquiring words, will ...

  4. Syntactic bootstrapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntactic_bootstrapping

    Syntactic bootstrapping is a theory in developmental psycholinguistics and language acquisition which proposes that children learn word meanings by recognizing syntactic categories (such as nouns, adjectives, etc.) and the structure of their language. It is proposed that children have innate knowledge of the links between syntactic and semantic ...

  5. Prosodic bootstrapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosodic_bootstrapping

    Prosodic bootstrapping (also known as phonological bootstrapping) in linguistics refers to the hypothesis that learners of a primary language (L1) use prosodic features such as pitch, tempo, rhythm, amplitude, and other auditory aspects from the speech signal as a cue to identify other properties of grammar, such as syntactic structure. [1]

  6. Word-sense disambiguation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word-sense_disambiguation

    Word-sense disambiguation is the process of identifying which sense of a word is meant in a sentence or other segment of context. In human language processing and cognition, it is usually subconscious. Given that natural language requires reflection of neurological reality, as shaped by the abilities provided by the brain's neural networks ...

  7. Business semantics management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_semantics_management

    Business semantics management (BSM) encompasses the technology, methodology, organization, and culture that brings business stakeholders together to collaboratively realize the reconciliation of their heterogeneous metadata; and consequently the application of the derived business semantics patterns to establish semantic alignment between the underlying data structures.

  8. Syntax–semantics interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntax–Semantics_Interface

    t. e. In linguistics, the syntax–semantics interface is the interaction between syntax and semantics. Its study encompasses phenomena that pertain to both syntax and semantics, with the goal of explaining correlations between form and meaning. [1] Specific topics include scope, [2][3] binding, [2] and lexical semantic properties such as ...

  9. Word2vec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word2vec

    e. Word2vec is a technique in natural language processing (NLP) for obtaining vector representations of words. These vectors capture information about the meaning of the word based on the surrounding words. The word2vec algorithm estimates these representations by modeling text in a large corpus. Once trained, such a model can detect synonymous ...
