Learning Strictly Local Subsequential Functions
We provide an automata-theoretic characterization of the ISL class and theorems establishing how the classes are related to each other and to Strictly Local languages.
Learning Tier-based Strictly 2-Local Languages
The Tier-based Strictly 2-Local (TSL2) languages are a class of formal languages which have been shown to model long-distance phonotactic generalizations in natural language (Heinz et al., 2011).
Subregular Complexity and Deep Learning
Learning experiments were conducted with two types of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) on six formal languages drawn from the Strictly Local (SL) and Strictly Piecewise (SP) classes.
Modeling Reduplication with 2-way Finite-State Transducers
2-way FSTs can model reduplicative typology in a way which is convenient, easy to design and debug in practice, and linguistically-motivated.
Learning with Partially Ordered Representations
This paper examines the characterization and learning of grammars defined with enriched representational models.
The SIGMORPHON 2019 Shared Task: Morphological Analysis in Context and Cross-Lingual Transfer for Inflection
The SIGMORPHON 2019 shared task on cross-lingual transfer and contextual analysis in morphology examined transfer learning of inflection between 100 language pairs, as well as contextual lemmatization and morphosyntactic description in 66 languages.
MLRegTest: A Benchmark for the Machine Learning of Regular Languages
Evaluating machine learning (ML) systems on their ability to learn known classifiers allows fine-grained examination of the patterns they can learn, which builds confidence when they are applied to the learning of unknown classifiers.
Why Linguistics Will Thrive in the 21st Century: A Reply to Piantadosi (2023)
We present a critical assessment of Piantadosi's (2023) claim that "Modern language models refute Chomsky's approach to language," focusing on four main points.
Finite-state Model of Shupamem Reduplication
Shupamem, a language of Western Cameroon, is a tonal language which also exhibits the morpho-phonological process of full reduplication.
