On the Evolution of Word Order

open access: yesProceedings of the Student Research Workshop Associated with RANLP 2021, 2021
Most natural languages have a predominant or fixed word order. For example in English the word order is usually Subject-Verb-Object. This work attempts to explain this phenomenon as well as other typological findings regarding word order from a functional perspective.

Word Order Typology in Baboli Dialect [PDF]

open access: yes̒Ilm-i Zabān, 2019
In word order typology, different languages are studied with respect to the order and sequence of their constituents and the classification and comparison of languages is carried out based on these orders. The present study describes word order in Baboli

Word Order Typology Interacts With Linguistic Complexity: A Cross-Linguistic Corpus Study

open access: yesCognitive Sciences, 2020
Much previous work has suggested that word order preferences across languages can be explained by the dependency distance minimization constraint (Ferrer-i Cancho, 2008, 2015; Hawkins, 1994). Consistent with this claim, corpus studies have shown that the

Assessing the Ability of Self-Attention Networks to Learn Word Order [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2019
Self-attention networks (SAN) have attracted a lot of interests due to their high parallelization and strong performance on a variety of NLP tasks, e.g. machine translation. Due to the lack of recurrence structure such as recurrent neural networks (RNN),

On the Importance of Word Order Information in Cross-lingual Sequence Labeling

open access: yesAAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2020
Cross-lingual models trained on source language tasks possess the capability to directly transfer to target languages. However, since word order variances generally exist in different languages, cross-lingual models that overfit into the word order of ...
