Synopsis
This book presents recent advances by leading researchers in computational modelling of language acquisition. The contributors have been drawn from departments of linguistics, cognitive science, psychology, and computer science. They show what light can be thrown on fundamental problems when powerful computational techniques are combined with real data. The book considers the extent to which linguistic structure is readily available in the environment, the degree to which language learning is inductive or deductive, and the power of different modelling formalisms for different problems and approaches. It will appeal to linguists, psychologists, cognitive scientists working in language acquisition,and to those involved in computational modelling in linguistic and behavioral science.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This book presents recent advances by leading researchers in computational modelling of language acquisition. Sophisticated theoretical models can now be tested using simulation techniques and large corpora of linguistic data. Renewed interest in learning neural networks and the ability to test new solutions to fundamental problems has fuelled debates in an already very active field. The twenty-four authors in this collection of new work have been drawn fromdepartments of linguistics, cognitive science, psychology, and computer science. The book as a whole shows what light may be thrown on fundamental problems when powerful computational techniques are combinedwith real data A central question addressed in the book concerns the extent to which linguistic structure is readily available in the environment. The authors consider the evidence in relation to word boundaries and phonotactic structure, stress patterns, text-to-speech rules, and the mapping of lexical semantics, one author arguing that a childs own output may serve as a key source of linguistic input. Linguistic structure-environment relations are central to the debateon the degree to which language learning is inductive or deductive: this issue is considered here in studies of the acquisition of pluralization and inflectional morphology. Thebook examines the power and utility of different modeling formalisms for different problems and approaches: how far, for example, can connectionist models be used as models for language acquisition or Simple Recurrent Networks form the basis of a model of language acquisition? To what degree can lexical items and categories be used in the construction of neural network models, or Markov chains be deployed to investigate the characteristics of a general language learning algorithm (TriggeringLearning Algorithm)? This book will appeal to linguists, psychologists, cognitive scientists working in language acquisition. It will also interest those involved in computationalmodelling in linguistics and behavioural science. This book presents recent advances in computational modelling of language acquisition. The contributors have been drawn from departments of linguistics, cognitive science, psychology, and computer science. They show what light can be thrown on fundamental problems when powerful computational techniques are combined with real data. This item is printed on demand.
