Sentence examples for semantic manipulation from inspiring English sources

Semantic manipulation: The semantics of the data structure are changed.

O-FCNs handle huge data collections and have to face the inherent complexity of semantic manipulation during the retrieval process.

Mind wandering allows information that cannot be analyzed when a stimulus emerges to be systematized because the semantic manipulation of information cannot take place while a stimulus occurs (Binder, Frost, Hammeke, Bellgowan, Rao & Cox, 1999), and is thus associated with effective coping (Greenwald and Harder, 1995) and creativity (Sio and Ormerod, 2009).

Categories could be distinguished most easily at around 200 240 ms after stimulus onset, the interval that corresponds to the N2-P2 complex in the centro-parietal site 26 (CP4-P5), which has previously been shown to be sensitive to detection of semantic manipulations in single word listening [31], [55], [56].
