Event-related causality in stereo-EEG discriminates syntactic processing of noun phrases and verb phrases

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Objective. Syntax involves complex neurobiological mechanisms, which are difficult to disentangle for multiple reasons. Using a protocol able to separate syntactic information from sound information we investigated the neural causal connections evoked by t ...

Multiscale pattern analysis of building replacements in Zurich from 2000 to 2019

Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jingxian Ye

Building replacement (BR) – i.e., the demolition of existing structures and subsequent construction of new buildings on the same site – is often understood as a necessary urban planning strategy despite significant environmental implications regarding soli ...

Natural language processing has experienced significant improvements with the development of Transformer-based models, which employ self-attention mechanism and pre-training strategies. However, these models still present several obstacles. A notable issue ...

Interpreting Rhythm as Parsing: Syntactic-Processing Operations Predict the Migration of Visual Flashes as Perceived During Listening to Musical Rhythms

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Steffen Alexander Herff, Gabriele Cecchetti

Music can be interpreted by attributing syntactic relationships to sequential musical events, and, computationally, such musical interpretation represents an analogous combinatorial task to syntactic processing in language. While this perspective has been ...

Embedding text in one language within text of another is commonplace for numerous purposes, but usually requires tedious and error-prone “escaping” transformations on the embedded string. We propose a simple cross-language syntactic discipline, matchertext ...

The present paper showcases the work carried out as part of the seismic retrofit of the Ottoman fortress of Gjirokastra, a UNESCO World Heritage site located in Albania. The need for strengthening and retrofitting the structure stems from the fact that it ...

High gamma response tracks different syntactic structures in homophonous phrases

Silvestro Micera, Fiorenzo Artoni

Syntax is a species-specific component of human language combining a finite set of words in a potentially infinite number of sentences. Since words are by definition expressed by sound, factoring out syntactic information is normally impossible. Here, we c ...

Harmonic Syntax in Time: Rhythm Improves Grammatical Models of Harmony

Martin Alois Rohrmeier, Daniel Harasim

Music is hierarchically structured, both in how it is perceived by listeners and how it is composed. Such structure can be elegantly captured using probabilistic grammatical models similar to those used to study natural language. They address the complexit ...

Additive manufacturing of structures capable of changing their properties or shape in a programmed controlled manner is a booming research field. A large number of studies show that the unique capabilities of 4D printing (freedom of geometrical design spac ...

Revised ASCE-41 modeling recommendations for moment-resisting frame systems

Dimitrios Lignos, Ahmed Mohamed Ahmed Elkady, Alexander Riley Hartloper

Nonlinear static and dynamic analysis is utilized by engineers to evaluate the seismic behavior of new and existing structures in the context of performance-based earthquake engineering. Numerous experiments on steel moment-resisting frames and their compo ...
