Paradigm-Based Derivational Morphology

Part of the book series: Informatik aktuell ((INFORMAT))

Abstract

The paper sketches an approach to derivational morphology that is based on the notion of the paradigm and provides new possibilities for an integrated treatment of inflection and derivation. The principal innovation lies in the use of cross-subcategorization to describe derivational combinations. The notion of a derivational closure is also introduced. Advantages of the approach for computational morphology involve both the representation and the processing of derivational information. Primary attention is directed at derivational morphotactics.

Zusammenfassung

Das Papier umreißt einen Ansatz in der Morphologie abgeleiteter Formen, der auf dem Begriff des Paradigmas beruht und neue Möglichkeiten für eine integrierte Behandlung der Flexion und Derivation eröffnet. Die wichtigste Innovation liegt in der Verwendung einer gegenseitigen Subkategorisierung, um Ableitungskombinationen zu beschreiben. Auch der Begriff einer derivationellen Hülle wird eingeführt. Vorteile des Ansatzes für die computerlinguistische Morphologie beziehen sich sowohl auf die Repräsentation wie auch die Verarbeitung derivationeller Informationen. Der Schwerpunkt der Aufmerksamkeit wird auf die derivationelle Moiphotaktik gerichtet.
