{"pk":30775,"title":"Towards a Connectionist Phonology: The \"Many Maps\" Approach to Sequence Manipulation","subtitle":null,"abstract":"Lakoff's new theory of cognitive phonology appears to be free of the rule ordering constraints that make generative rules computationally awkward. It uses a multilevel representation for utterances, to which multiple rules may apply in parallel. This paper presents the first implementation of Lakoff's proposal, based on a novel \"many maps\" architecture. The architecture may also explain certain constraints on phonological rules that are not adequately accounted for by more abstract models.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Paper Presentations","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/92h623k1","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"David","middle_name":"S.","last_name":"Tourestzky","name_suffix":"","institution":"Carnegie Mellon University","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"1989-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/30775/galley/20624/download/"}]}
