Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Languages differ radically in the ways in which they form similar ideas into words and phrases. The idea that words and phrases are alternative means of expressing the same grammatical relations underlies the design of lexical-functional grammar (LFG) and distinguishes it from other formal syntactic frameworks. Although Warlpiri lacks English-style phrase structure, and English lacks Warlpiri-style case and agreement forms of words, there is evidence that they have a common organization at a deeper level than is apparent from their differing modes of expression. Although various degrees of nonconfigurationality occur across languages, a number of the Australian languages are among the best exemplars of the phenomenon. This nonconfigurationality is possible because the same grammatical information can be specified by word shapes as by word groups; the functional structure of LFG characterizes this grammatical information in an abstract, neutral way, without configurational bias.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
