Commentaries and blog discussion for Pater 2019

From Joe Pater

I’ve set up a discussion blog post with links to the final (pre-copyedited) versions of my paper “Generative Linguistics and Neural Networks at 60: Foundation, Friction and Fusion” and the commentaries here: https://websites.umass.edu/cogsci/2018/10/12/discussion-generative-linguistics-and-neural-networks-at-60/. Direct links to the commentaries are also below. The paper and commentaries will appear in the March 2019 volume of Language.

Iris Berent and Gary Marcus. No integration without structured representations: reply to Pater.

Ewan Dunbar. Generative grammar, neural networks, and the implementational mapping problem.

Tal Linzen. What can linguistics and deep learning contribute to each other?

Lisa Pearl. Fusion is great, and interpretable fusion could be exciting for theory generation.

Chris Potts. A case for deep learning in semantics

Jonathan Rawski and Jeff Heinz. No Free Lunch in Linguistics or Machine Learning.
