Grammar teaching and learning have always been important and difficult parts in L2 Chinese. This paper demonstrates a method for automatically extracting and recommending Grammar Points to L2 Chinese teachers and learners.

It is one of the most important chores of Natural Language Processing as the summary produced is helpful for information retrieval systems, question answering systems, medical domain and news domain etc. Most of the summarization works in Indian languages are of extractive nature and not much work is oriented...
A novel cognitive classifier has been introduced to develop a trustable mammography Computer Aided Diagnosis (CADx) system which is called Cognitive Weighted Linear Aggregation (CWLA). A group of in-depth analyzed features are extracted from the preprocessed Regions of Interest (ROIs) and mapped from set of real numbers to a set of linguistic terms. The proposed classifier primes a knowledge base...
We raise the problem of evaluating the quality of bilingual sentences mined from the web, which is critical for such applications as statistical machine translation (SMT) and English as Second Language (ESL) learning. To tackle this problem, we propose a novel method that integrates multiple linguistic features related to spelling, grammar, and alignment, particularly the sentence type feature that...
This study reviews the features used in the previous Automated Essay Scoring (AES) system, and attempts to develop a new linguistic feature-thematic feature for AES systems. According to Functional Grammar, theme is the point of departure for message, the element with which the clause is concerned. The thematic structure is an important method to promote essay coherence, and to present the message...
Chinese learners of English always suffer from mastering real, normal and fluent English for lack of a live language environment. To facilitate effective and efficient English learning, we propose an ensemble approach that combines the findings from information technology, linguistics and second language acquisition in order to construct a better English learning environment for Chinese students....
The proliferations of terrorism news articles from thousands of different sources are now available on the Web. Summarization of such information is becoming increasingly important. The aim of this paper is to study and compare the linguistic feature methods that are appropriate for use in terrorism event extraction systems. The event extraction has a main function to named entity recognition and...
In the article, Authors present the issue of proper choice of grammar by presenting analysis from GPSG (generalised phrase structure grammar) to HPSG (ang. head -driven phrase structure grammar). The objective of the choice is an optimal description of considered tonal harmony with a future possibility of extension, for example for jazz harmony. The proper choice is important primarily for subsequent...
