Computational Approaches to Morphology and Syntax (Oxford Surveys in Syntax & Morphology)

Buy
"This book should undoubtedly be of great interest to students and researchers of morphology, syntax, computational linguistics, and natural language processing. The book provides an excellent systematics overivew of the current state-of-the-art of the field. The book includes extensive descriptions of the formal characterization of morphological operations as well as a wide range of grammar formalisms, using multilingual data to illustrate these operations and formalisms wherever necesscary. The theory-minded reader will appreciate the book's insightful discussion on the implications of computational modeling for theories of morphology and models of syntax, while the application-minded reader will appreciate its constant emphasis on the application of the models and algorithms introduced in practical natural language processing tasks." --Linguist List

The book will appeal to scholars and advanced students of morphology, syntax, computational linguistics and natural language processing (NLP). It provides a critical and practical guide to computational techniques for handling morphological and syntactic phenomena, showing how these techniques have been used and modified in practice.

The authors discuss the nature and uses of syntactic parsers and examine the problems and opportunities of parsing algorithms for finite-state, context-free and various context-sensitive grammars. They relate approaches for describing syntax and morphology to formal mechanisms and algorithms, and present well-motivated approaches for augmenting grammars with weights or probabilities.
