: BTW, the edited collection that this appears in is generally interesting. Bresnan defends and develops lexicalized grammars in general; the idea of separate surface and semantic roles; and Bresnan & Kaplan's LFG in particular. You should know that she originated (in 1978) the extremely influential idea of lexicalized syntax -- the idea that a grammar is simply a collection of lexical entries to be assembled in standard language-independent ways, but that there are also "lexical redundancy rules" that relate, e.g., active and passive entries for the same verb. Some chapters address morphological and cognitive issues pertaining to lexicalization, including an essay by Pinker on lexicalist learning. , | : BTW, the edited collection that this appears in is generally interesting.

− | It has been argued that rule-based phonological descriptions can uniformly be expressed as mappings carried out by finite-state transducers, and therefore fall within the class of rational relations. If this property of generative capacity is an empirically correct characterization of phonological mappings, it should hold of any sufficiently restrictive theory of phonology, whether it utilizes constraints or rewrite rules. In this paper, we investigate the conditions under which the phonological descriptions that are possible within the view of constraint interaction embodied in Optimality Theory (Prince and Smolensky 1993) remain within the class of rational relations. We show that this is true when GEN is itself a rational relation, and each of the constraints distinguishes among finitely many regular sets of candidates. , | + | It has been argued that rule-based phonological descriptions can uniformly be expressed as mappings carried out by finite-state transducers, and therefore fall within the class of rational relations.

Revision as of 18:38, 10 February 2008
The reading group attempts to keep abreast of current trends in natural language processing research. We typically read one or two recent NLP conference papers each week, and occasionally look at material from the machine learning, statistics, and linguistics communities as well.
Starting in 2008, we will be posting the weekly readings here. Past readings since 2001 are being filled in presently.
Spring 2008
First meeting of the term will be on Thursday, Jan. 31, at noon in NEB 317. Feel free to bring lunch.
