Selp-phase locking in a type-II phase matched optical parametric oscillator
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996) -
Semantic and data-driven hierarchies for personalized models of affect
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)When building personalized models of affect, hierarchical structures are important in creating levels of separation and sharing between models. Past studies have indicated that semantic hierarchies along demographic divisions ... -
Semantic and pragmatic language development in typical acquisition, autism spectrum disorders, and Williams syndrome with reference to developmental neurogenetics of the latter
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)The elucidation of the biological bases of a complex trait like human language proceeds from identification of precise behavioral phenotypes to investigation of the underlying genes. The human behavioral parts of this ... -
A semantic checkpoint framework for enabling runtime-reconfigurable applications
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2003)This thesis proposes to enable runtime-reconfigurable applications through the use of semantic checkpointing. We view applications here as a collection of inter-connected components, and reconfigurations as the reconstitution ... -
Semantic conditions of surface structure.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1974) -
A semantic data federation engine : design, implementation & applications in educational information management
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)With the advent of the World Wide Web, the amount of digital information in the world has increased exponentially. The ability to organize this deluge of data, retrieve it, and combine it with other data would bring numerous ... -
Semantic knowledge representation and analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Natural language is the means through which humans convey meaning to each other - each word or phrase is a label, or name, for an internal representation of a concept. This internal representation is built up from repeated ... -
Semantic representation of digital ink in the classroom learning partner
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The research presented in this thesis addresses a critical issue in the introduction of new tablet-PC-based educational technology in the classroom: interpretation and semantic representation of digital ink. The teaching ... -
The semantic significance of referential intentions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992) -
Semantic spaces : behavior, language and word learning in the Human Speechome corpus
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)The Human Speechome Project is an unprecedented attempt to record, analyze and understand the process of language acquisition. It is composed of over 90,000 hours of video and 150,000 hours of audio, capturing roughly 80% ... -
Semantic structure and language development
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990) -
A semantic theory of the English auxiliary system.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1977) -
Semantic understanding and commonsense reasoning in an adaptive photo agent
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002) -
Semantic-free referencing in linked systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)The Web relies on the Domain Name System (DNS) to resolve the hostname portion of URLs into IP addresses. This marriage-of-convenience enabled the Web's meteoric rise, but the resulting entanglement is now hindering both ... -
The semantics and metaphysics of contingent identity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001)The thesis is divided into three chapters. The first chapter considers how we ought to understand a thesis of contingent identity if it is to accomplish the work it is proposed to accomplish while at the same time avoiding ... -
Semantics and phonology in syntax
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)In this thesis I argue that morphology should be allowed to interpret not only the information provided by the syntactic component, but also compositional semantic properties. This conception of grammar requires morphology ... -
A semantics based computational model for word learning
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)Studies have shown that children's early literacy skills can impact their ability to achieve academic success, attain higher education and secure employment later in life. However, lack of resources and limited access to ... -
Semantics of communicating parallel processes.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1975) -
The semantics of scope in English.
