This book discusses the theory and practice of memory-based language processing--a machine learning and problem solving method for language technology--showing its comparative strengths over alternative methods of language modelling. By applying the model to a range of benchmark problems, the authors show the excellent results it can produce for a range of linguistic areas from phonology to semantics. They also describe TiMBL, a software package for memory-based language processing....
More DescriptionThis book discusses the theory and practice of memory-based language processing--a machine learning and problem solving method for language technology--showing its comparative strengths over alternative methods of language modelling. By applying the model to a range of benchmark problems, the authors show the excellent results it can produce for a range of linguistic areas from phonology to semantics. They also describe TiMBL, a software package for memory-based language processing. The first comprehensive overview of the approach, this book will be invaluable for computational linguists, psycholinguists and language engineers.
