This is a reprint of the original 1986 version of the paper, which appeared in the Proceedings of the Chicago Linguistic Society. A completely revised and considerably expanded version appears as chapter 4 of my 2012 book Modals and Conditionals. Please check out the latest version of the paper.

Chapters 9–10 explore how the assignment-variable-based treatments of relativization and pronominal anaphora with noun phrases may be extended to capture shifting phenomena in other clausal structures, such as conditionals, correlatives, and questions. This chapter develops a syntax/semantics for ‘if’-clauses as free relatives, interpreted as plural definite descriptions of assignments (possibilities). Clause-internal movement of a (possibly implicit) definite/maximality operator introduces quantification over assignments. The compositional semantics affords a uniform analysis of ‘if’-clauses in diverse types of conditionals—conditionals with ‘if’-clauses in post-nominal, sentence-final, and sentence-initial positions, and conditionals with/without an overt modal or ‘then’. The choice-function-based analyses of anaphoric pronouns as copies of a linguistic antecedent are extended to anaphoric proforms in correlatives. Comparisons between conditional correlatives and correlatives of individuals are briefly considered.

A 2D-video processing technique for automatic detection of incoming vehicles at night light conditions is a challenging task for any Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). We present a novel image processing technique to be used by ADAS to detect and track incoming vehicle’s front headlamp for estimating real time velocity under such conditions. To capture the incoming traffic a standard C-MOS camera is mounted in the front panel of the vehicle and pre-processing filters are applied on each frame for removing impulse noise. Headlamp blobs are segmented from the rectified frame using intensity thresholds. Area of the blob is calculated based on the motion data and is used to predict the real time velocity of the vehicle. Optical flow concept is applied to predict Motion in the headlamps and tracked by kalman filtering. Experiments are conducted to estimate the training set parameters of the distance function. Results that demonstrate system’s high velocity prediction rates using the best practices of image processing and optical flow are presented.

Abstract This chapter argues that the branched model provides a clear and definite answer to the question of truth-conditions not only for counterfactuals, but also for all conditionals with contingent antecedent and consequence. It illustrates that some conditionals have truth-values, some have only probability values, and some have both. In order to separate the two classes of conditional this chapter first attempts to establish a pre-theoretic line between them, based on considerations of grammar and linguistic usage. Subsequently it explains how this intuitive, everyday distinction may be grounded in theory.

Abstract This chapter provides an inferential expressivist treatment of indicative and subjunctive conditionals. The previous chapters have focused on speech acts, such as assertion, whose force applies to a single sentence. This chapter begins by arguing for the existence of binary speech acts, such as conditional assertion, whose force relates two sentences. The chapter then explains the meaning of embeddable conditional operators in terms of their inferential relation to unembeddable conditional speech acts. The chapter goes on to show how the resulting account of the indicative conditional meets the challenge posed by the Gibbard Collapse Argument and, when combined with the theory of truth from the previous chapter, solves Curry’s Paradox. The chapter ends by implementing the distinction between content and inferential conditionals in the framework of the book and arguing for the existence of a plurality of conditionals.
