OT SIMPLE - a construction-kit approach to Optimality Theory implementation
This paper details a simple approach to the implementation of Optimality Theory (OT, Prince and Smolensky 1993) on a computer, in part reusing standard system software. In a nutshell, OT’s GENerating source is implemented as a BinProlog program interpreting a context-free specification of a GEN structural grammar according to a user-supplied input form. The resulting set of textually flattened ...
متن کاملLearnability in Optimality Theory
In this article we show how Optimality Theory yields a highly general Constraint Demotion principle for grammar learning. The resulting learning procedure specifically exploits the grammatical structure of Optimality Theory, independent of the content of substantive constraints defining any given grammatical module. We decompose the learning problem and present formal results for a central subp...
متن کاملOptimality Theory in Phonology
GENERATIVE PHONOLOGY [q.v.] aims to construct a predictive theory of natural language sound systems, rooted in a finely-detailed account of the principles defining linguistic representations and the possible relations between them. Within these broad goals, OPTIMALITY THEORY (OT) develops in the context of specific empirical theses about the way phonological systems are organized. We identify t...
متن کاملTypology in Optimality Theory
The mechanism of constraint re-ranking basis makes Optimality Theory (OT) a typologically oriented theory of phonology. Permuting the prioritization of constraints on a language-specific basis generates a factorial typology of phonological patterns. Patterns generated by an optimality-theoretic account can be compared with the set of attested patterns found in languages of the world to determin...
متن کاملOptimality Theory
In this chapter, we explore the implications of Optimality Theory (OT) for speech-language pathology.. But at the time of writing, the most accessible readings in OT for the speech-language pathologist are to be found in Bernhardt, Gilbert, and Ingram (1996). The first part of the chapter outlines major aspects of OT, and the second part discusses application of this theory to phonological inte...
