    Dear all,

    I’ll present V. Kapatsinsly’s “Attending to phonotactics over alternations in learning morphophonology”.(under review)

    Also, I’ve stumbled upon a MA thesis, that might be relevant to the topics that we’ve discussed in class. I’m posting its data here, case somebody might be interested:

    “From alternations to ordered rules: A system for learning Derivational Phonology” (2010) by Marc Simpson (Concordia University)

    Abstract: “This work presents a computational rule learner tasked with inferring underlying forms and ordered rules from phonological paradigms akin to those found in traditional pen and paper analyses. The scheme being proposed is a batch learner capable of analysing surface alternations and hypothesising ordered derivations compatible with them in order to create an explicit mapping from UR to SR.”
