基于记忆的语言处理（英文影印版）

　　《基于记忆的语言处理（英文影印版）》深入浅出，即使是刚接触自然语言处理、计算语言学和机器学习方面的学习者，也能读懂本书的内容。 

　　《基于记忆的语言处理（英文影印版）》适用于计算语言学、心理语言学学习者和语言工程师。主要探讨基于记忆的自然语言处理技术，分为两部分：基于记忆的机器学习技术和该技术在自然语言处理任务上的应用。本书逻辑清楚，深入浅出，实用性强。跟很多现有的自然语言处理技术相比，书中介绍的”基于记忆的学习”简单实用；此外还详细介绍了作者团队开发的基于记忆学习软件包TIMBL；而且对相关方法的描述和相关原理的解释直观易懂,即使是刚接触计算语言学的学习者，也能读懂本书的内容。
