Book Description

Mathematical Linguistics introduces the mathematical foundations of linguistics to computer scientists, engineers, and mathematicians interested in natural language processing (NLP). The book presents linguistics as a cumulative body of knowledge from the ground up: no prior knowledge of linguistics is assumed. As the first textbook of its kind, this book is useful for those in information science and in natural language technologies.

• Andras Kornai is full professor at the Budapest Institute of Technology, and Senior Scientific Advisor at the Computer and Automation Research Institute of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. His research interests include all mathematical aspects of natural language processing, speech recognition, and OCR.

• Foundation Models for Natural Language Processing

  This open access book provides a comprehensive overview of the state of the art in research and applications of Foundation Models and is intended for readers familiar with basic Natural Language Processing (NLP) concepts.

• Speech and Language Processing (Dan Jurafsky, et al)

  This text takes an empirical approach to the subject, based on applying statistical and other machine-learning algorithms to large corporations. It describes a unified vision of speech and language processing. Emphasis is on practical and scientific applications.

• Linguistics for the Age of AI (Marjorie McShane, et al)

  This book summarizes an exciting approach to knowledge-rich natural language understanding, in the context of language - using AI agents. Anyone interested in building cognitive systems that use language should read this book.

• Computational Linguistics: Models, Resources, Applications

  This comprehensive reference work provides an overview of the concepts, methodologies, and applications in computational linguistics and natural language processing (NLP). It will be of interest and practical use to a wide range of linguists.

• Analyzing Linguistic Data: Introduction to Statistics using R

  A straightforward introduction to the statistical analysis of language, designed for those with a non-mathematical background. Using the leading statistics programme 'R'. Suitable for all those working with quantitative language data.

• How Language Works: The Cognitive Science of Linguistics

  This book offers general readers a personal tour of the intricate workings of language. It will focus on a narrow range of topics and themes; there will be no pretense of covering the field in anything like a complete fashion.

• Essentials of Linguistics (Catherine Anderson)

  This book is about the core areas of theoretical linguistics (phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics), supplemented with discussion of psycholinguistic and neurolinguistic findings. It is suitable for any beginning learner of linguistics.

• Syntactic Theory: A Formal Introduction (Ivan A. Sag, et al)

  This is a textbook that makes it truly fun to teach introductory syntax. It is thoroghly data-driven and teaches the student to pay attention to empirical details and to find linguistic patterns and explanations for them.
