The Complexity of Ranking Hypotheses in Optimality Theory
Complexity Ranking Hypotheses Optimality Theory
2015/9/7
Given a constraint set with k constraints in the framework of Optimality Theory (OT), what is its capacity as a classification scheme for linguistic data? One useful measure of this capacity is the si...
There are several ways in which the algorithmic acquisition of language knowledge and behavior can be studied. One important area of research is the computational modeling of human language acquisitio...
Optimality Theory
Optimality Theory McCarthy
2015/8/25
Ren′e Kager’s textbook is one of the first to cover Optimality Theory (OT), a declarative
grammar framework that swiftly took over phonology after it was introduced by
Prince, Smolensky, and M...
A Finite-State Approximation of Optimality Theory:the Case of Finnish Prosody
Finite-State Approximation Optimality Theory Finnish Prosody
2015/6/18
This paper gives a finite-state formulation of two closely related descriptions of Finnish prosody proposed by Paul Kiparsky and Nine Elenbaas in the framework of optimality theory. In native Finnish ...

Linking-r in Eastern Massachusetts and Optimality Theory.
This paper is a shorter (and probably better) version of "Harmony in Harmonic Serialism." Like its big brother, it argues that Harmonic Serialism answers the conundrum of how iterative autosegmental s...
Sonority variation in Stochastic Optimality Theory: Implications for markedness hierarchies
Sonority variation Stochastic Optimality Theory
2014/4/25
Constraints based on the sonority scale and other markedness hierarchies have been formalized
in two different ways: as scale-partition constraint families, with a universally fixed ranking, and
as...
What is Optimality Theory?
Optimality Theory
2014/10/29
Optimality Theory is a general model of how grammars are structured. This article surveys the motivations for OT, its core principles, and the basics of analysis. It also addresses some frequently ask...

Review of Bruce Tesar and Paul Smolensky (2000) Learnability in Optimality Theory.
Is Optimality Theory a constraining theory? A formal analysis shows that it is, if two auxiliary assumptions are made: (1) that only markedness and faithfulness constraints are allowed, and (2) that i...
Process-specific constraints in Optimality Theory
Process-specific constraints Optimality Theory
2014/10/29
Similar phonological processes can be governed by different constraints. Davis (1995) claims that the effect of such process-specific constraints cannot be obtained in Optimality Theory (OT), exemplif...
Remarks on phonological opacity in Optimality Theory
phonological opacity Optimality Theory
2014/10/29
In these remarks, I have examined the problem of phonological opacity for theories without serial ordering of rules, focusing on Optimality Theory. I have argued in favor of extending a correspondence...
