Mathematics of Language : Proceedings of a Conference Held at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, October 1984.
By mathematics of language is meant the mathematical properties that may, under certain assumptions about modeling, be attributed to human languages and related symbolic systems, as well as the increasingly active and autonomous scholarly discipline that studies such things. More specifically, the u...
