چکیده

Over the last two decades, computational linguistics has been revolutionized as a result of three closely related developments, two empirical and one theoretical: increases in computing power, the new availability of large linguistic datasets, and a paradigm shift toward the view that language processing by computers is best approached through the tools of statistical inference. During roughly the same time frame, there have been similar theoretical developments in cognitive psychology towards a view of major aspects of human cognition as instances of rational statistical inference. Developments in these two fields have set the stage for renewed interest in computational approaches to human language processing. In this tutorial, we briefly survey some of the key theoretical issues at the forefront of this interdisciplinary field today, and show how modeling techniques from NLP are being employed, extended, and coupled with experimental techniques from psycholinguistics to further our understanding of real-time human language use.

Computational Psycholinguistics

Computational psycholinguistics seeks to build theories of human linguistic processes that take the form of working computational models. These models address processes ranging from word recognition to discourse comprehension, and produce behaviour that constitutes predictions to be compared to human data.

Disfluency detection in a dialogue system

Disfluency detection is the task of recognizing structural metadata in spoken utterances. It has been the topic of several studies in computational linguistics and psycholinguistics. This paper motivates the need for automatic disfluency detection in a dialogue system and delineates some of the features that characterize a disfluent utterance.

A plea for more interactions between psycholinguistics and natural language processing research

A new development in psycholinguistics is the use of regression analyses on tens of thousands of words, known as the megastudy approach. This development has led to the collection of processing times and subjective ratings (of age of acquisition, concreteness, valence, and arousal) for most of the existing words in English and Dutch. In addition, a crowdsourcing study in the Dutch language has ...
