Description

Constraint-based linguistics is intersected by three fields: logic, linguistics, and computer sciences.

The central theme that ties these different disciplines together is the notion of a linguistic formalism or metalanguage.

This metalanguage has good mathematical properties, is designed to express descriptions of language, and has a semantics that can be implemented on a computer.

Constraints, Language and Computation discusses the theory and practice of constraint-based computational linguistics.

The book captures both the maturity of the field and some of its more interesting future prospects during a particulary important moment of development in this field.
