computational syntax [a475182b]

Tags: nlp, languages/linguistics

Computational syntax is concerned about the questions of the structures of natural language sentences (grammar):

  • what kinds of representations allow you best to describe what sentences are grammatical/possible in a langauge?
  • what kidns of sentence structure are and are not possible in any given human languages?
  • to what extent are these grammatical rules langauge-specific and learnbed, and to what extend to they represent something universal about human cognition?
