A Maximum Entropy Approach to Natural Language Processing
by A. L. Berger, S. A. Della Pietra, V. J. Della Pietra
Publisher: Association for Computational Linguistics 1996
Number of pages: 36
Description:
The authors describe a method for statistical modeling based on maximum entropy. They present a maximum-likelihood approach for automatically constructing maximum entropy models and describe how to implement this approach efficiently, using as examples several problems in natural language processing.

Notes on Computational Linguistics
by Edward Stabler - UCLA
What kind of computational device could use a system like a human language? This text explores the computational properties of devices that could compute morphological and syntactic analyses, and recognize semantic relations among sentences.

Natural Language Processing for the Working Programmer
by Daniƫl de Kok, Harm Brouwer
We will go into many of the techniques that so-called computational linguists use to analyze the structure of human language, and transform it into a form that computers work with. We chose Haskell as the main programming language for this book.
