Research in Natural Language Processing: Mathematical and Computational Investigations in Constrained Formalisms.

这是一个联合奖博士乔希在大学 宾夕法尼亚 这个团队提出了几项主要的研究 自然语言处理中的任务，特别强调 一些数学和计算方面。 明确勘察工作 具有形式和数学特征。 的各种 团队开发的计算结构和策略 并将发展，需要数学研究 因为这样的调查揭示了描述性和 这些形式主义的处理能力。 这两个方面，即， 结构和战略的发展， 数学研究，是非常相关的。 是 认为自然语言处理由一个正式的 框架和数学调查，以经验为基础， 研究是两个非常富有成效的研究领域。 的 研究人员将专注于对数学感兴趣 调查仅限于结果具有 对自然语言处理的重要影响。

This is a joint award with Dr. Joshi at the University of Pennsylvania. This team has proposed several major research tasks in natural language processing with special emphasis on several mathematical and computational aspects. The work clearly has a formal and mathematical character. The various computational structures and strategies the team has developed and will develop, need to be investigated mathematically becausesuch investigations shed light on the descriptive and processing powers of these formalisms. These two aspects, i.e., the development of the structures and strategies, and their mathematical investigations, are very much interrelated. It is believed that natural language processing backed up by a formal framework, and mathematical investigations grounded in empirical studies are two very productive areas of research. The researcher will focus on interested in mathematical investigations only to the extent to which the results have important implications for natural language processing.
