Linguistic Theory is a rich and deep field that has much to
offer computational linguists seeking to build systems that
encapsulate natural language grammars. This is an advanced seminar
that examines how to formalize and implement the relations and
mechanisms that underly modern theories of grammar. Special emphasis
will be placed on looking at available software systems that have been
implemented.
Starting from Goverment and Binding Theory through to the Probe-Goal model of the Minimalist Program, we will examine selected theories in depth. |
