Language Computations: Dimacs Workshop on Human Language March 20-22, 1992

Refereed papers from a workshop held at DIMACS in March 1992 focus on computations related to the sounds and words of a language. The volume is divided into four the sensory-motor representation of speech sounds (phonetics); phonological stress, a phonological subsystem used to indicate constituency and hierarchy; learning frameworks, i.e., how it is possible to learn a human language in the face of noisy, incomplete, and inconsistent evidence; and the relation between the sound and the meaning of words (morphology).
