Computers 'speak' in sentences
美国推出最新语言识别及学习系统
RESEARCHERS from Cornell University in the US and Tel Aviv University in Israel have developed a computer programme that can scan text in a number of languages, including English and Chinese, and infer the underlying rules of grammar. The rules can be used to generate new and meaningful sentences. The development offers insights into language acquisition because it discovers complex patterns in raw text by repeatedly aligning sentences and looking for overlapping parts.
