To investigate computational discourse and psycholinguistic aspects of the centering theory developed by the Principal Investigator, and her students and colleagues. The centering model addresses the relation between the form of linguistic expression and the local discourse coherence. There are four issues investigated in this research effort. The first deals with the integration of the centering theory with other linguistic processes in the interpretation of pronouns. The second involves the use application of centering to additional context-dependent linguistic forms such as ellipsis and accentuation. The third consists of the interaction between centering and discourse segmentation. Finally, the fourth aspect considers the formulation of computationally tractable rules constraining centering transitions.

研究由首席研究员及其学生和同事开发的中心理论的计算话语和心理语言学方面。 中心化模式强调语言表达形式与局部语篇连贯之间的关系。 在这项研究工作中有四个问题进行了调查。 第一部分论述了中心理论与其他语言过程在代词解释中的整合。 第二个涉及到使用中心的应用程序，以额外的上下文相关的语言形式，如省略和重读。 三是中心化与语篇分割的互动。 最后，第四个方面考虑制定计算易处理的规则约束中心转移。
