	title        = { A best-first anagram hashing filter for approximate string matching with generalized edit distance},
	abstract     = {This paper presents an efficient method for approximate string matching against a lexicon. We
define a filter that for each source word selects a small set of target lexical entries, from which
the best match is then selected using generalized edit distance, where edit operations can be
assigned an arbitrary weight. The filter combines a specialized hash function with best-first
search. Our work extends and improves upon a previously proposed hash-based filter, developed
for matching with uniform-weight edit distance. We evaluate an approximate matching system
implemented with the new best-first filter, by conducting several experiments on a historical
corpus and a set of weighted rules taken from the literature. We present running times and
discuss how performance varies using different stopping criteria and target lexica. The results
show that the filter is suitable for large rule sets and million word corpora, and encourage
further development.

	title        = {Two for the price of one: an LFG treatment of sentence initial object es in German.},
	abstract     = {    We present an analysis of sentence initial object es ‘it’ in German. The
weak pronoun es may only realize such an object under specific information
structural conditions. We follow recent work suggesting these conditions are
exactly those that licence the use of the presentational construction, marked
by a sentence initial dummy es. We propose that the initial objects are an
example of function amalgamation, show that only objects that may also
appear in the clause-internal postverbal domain can participate in this fusion
and make this precise in LFG. We end the paper with a contrastive discussion.

	abstract     = {             We present a Prolog implementation of real-time persistent
queues and double-ended queues. Our implementation is inspired by
Okasaki’s lazy-functional approach, but relies only on standard Prolog,
comprising of the pure subset plus if-then-else constructs to efficiently
implement guards and meta-calls for convenience. The resulting data
structure is a nice demonstration of the fact that the use of logic variables
to hold the outcome of an unfinished computation can sometimes give
the same kind of elegant and compact solutions as lazy evaluation.
