Description
The present volume contains some selected topics of current interest around the world in the mathematical analysis of natural language. The book is divided into four sections:
- analytical algebraic models
- models from the theory of formal grammars and automata, with interest mainly in syntax
- model-theoretic concepts in semantics or pragmatics, and
- a final section containing some applications in computational linguistics.
The varied perspectives illustrated in the book confirm that Mathematical Linguistics has finally introduced scientific methods into a previously fuzzy field, through the use of mathematical reasoning. The text will contribute to a fruitful convergence between linguists, mathematicians, logicians, computer scientists, cognitive scientists and others interested in the formal treatment of natural language and the research of its properties.
