Abstract

During the last decade, we assist to a major change in the direction that theoretical models used in natural language processing follow. We are moving from rule-based systems to corpus-oriented para-digms. In this paper, we analyze several generative formalisms together with newer statistical and data-oriented linguistic methodologies. We review existing methods belonging to deep or shallow learning applied in various subfields of computational linguistics. The continuous, fast improvements obtained by practical, applied machine learning techniques may lead us to new theoretical developments in the classic models as well. We discuss several scenarios for future approaches.
