形式语言理论与现代NLP

Formal Language Theory Meets Modern NLP

William Merrill

摘要:

NLP与语言的正式研究深深交织在一起,无论是概念上还是历史上。可以说,这种联系可以一直追溯到1957年乔姆斯基的句法结构。它在今天仍然适用,最近的一系列作品用形式语言对现代神经网络方法进行了形式化分析。在本文中,我的目的是解释形式语言的背景,因为它们与最近的工作有关。我将不可避免地忽略这个领域丰富历史的大部分,而是专注于与现代基于深度学习的NLP相关的概念。

英文摘要:

NLP is deeply intertwined with the formal study of language, both conceptually and historically. Arguably, this connection goes all the way back to Chomsky's Syntactic Structures in 1957. It also still holds true today, with a strand of recent works building formal analysis of modern neural networks methods in terms of formal languages. In this document, I aim to explain background about formal languages as they relate to this recent work. I will by necessity ignore large parts of the rich history of this field, instead focusing on concepts connecting to modern deep learning-based NLP.
