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 ...

Modeling Structured Data in Attention-based Models

Alireza Mohammadshahi

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 ...

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 ...

Engineering of Existing Structures: The Need and Place for Non-destructive Evaluation

Eugen Brühwiler, Numa Joy Bertola, Thomas Schumacher, Guillaume Justin Henriques

Structural engineers today are still educated mainly to design new structures. This ignores the fact that structures already exist and need to be maintained. Students are thus often ill-equipped to deal with maintenance and preservation of existing structu ...

Conveying the Perception of Humor Arising from Ambiguous Grammatical Constructs in Human-Chatbot Interaction

Denis Gillet, Juan Carlos Farah, Sandy Ingram

Chatbots have long been advocated for computer-assisted language learning systems to support learners with conversational practice. A particular challenge in such systems is explaining mistakes stemming from ambiguous grammatical constructs. Misplaced modi ...

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 ...

Design Transformations for Rule-based Procedural Modeling

Mark Pauly, Stefan Lienhard

We introduce design transformations for rule-based procedural models, e.g., for buildings and plants. Given two or more procedural designs, each specified by a grammar, a design transformation combines elements of the existing designs to generate new desig ...

Program repair without regret

Barbara Jobstmann

We present a new and flexible approach to repair reactive programs with respect to a specification. The specification is given in linear-temporal logic. Like in previous approaches, we aim for a repaired program that satisfies the specification and is synt ...

Stable self-similar blowup in energy supercritical Yang-Mills theory

Roland Donninger

We consider the Cauchy problem for an energy supercritical nonlinear wave equation that arises in -dimensional Yang-Mills theory. A certain self-similar solution of this model is conjectured to act as an attractor for generic large data evolutions. Assumin ...

Safety examination of existing concrete structures using the global resistance safety factor concept

Eugen Brühwiler

Current design procedures for structural concrete elements are based on member level (or local) safety checks, in the sense that the safety condition is evaluated at each cross-section individually. In the examination of existing structures, the exploitati ...

Swiss Standards for Existing Structures

Eugen Brühwiler

In January 2011, the Swiss Society of Engineers and Architects (SIA) published a series of standards for existing structures. The standard entitled 'existing structures-bases for examination and interventions' specifies the principles, the terminology and ...

On the Usage of Concrete Syntax in Model Transformation Rules

Graph transformations are one of the best known approaches for defining transformations in model-based software development. They are defined over the abstract syntax of source and target languages, described by metamodels. Since graph transformations are ...
