Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEntrenching Inferences in Implicational and Illocutionary ConstructionsFrancisco José Ruiz de Mendoza IbáñezThe starting point for the present paper is the classification of constructions, understood as fixed pairings of form and meaning, into four levels of meaning representation, i.e., the argument-structure, implicational, illocutionary and discourse levels. The meaning part of constructions contains fixed and variable elements. In argument-structure constructions the fixed elements are generic and, as such, they are open to parameterization … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 14 Aug 2015 · 8,199 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA REVIEW ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF INDONESIAN SIGN LANGUAGE RECOGNITION SYSTEMSutarman, Mazlina Abdul Majid, Jasni Mohamad ZainSign language is mainly employed by hearing-impaired people to communicate with each other. However, communication with normal people is a major handicap for them since normal people do not understand their sign language. Sign language recognition is needed for realizing a human oriented interactive system that can perform an interaction like normal communication. Sign language recognition basically uses two approaches: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 27 Sep 2013 · 8,691 accessesView PDFCite
