This volume is a direct result of the International Symposium on
Japanese Sentence Processing held at Duke University. The symposium
provided the first opportunity for researchers in three
disciplinary areas from both Japan and the United States to
participate in a conference where they could discuss issues
concerning Japanese syntactic processing. The goals of the
symposium were three-fold: * to illuminate the mechanisms of
Japanese sentence processing from the viewpoints of linguistics,
psycholinguistics and computer science; * to synthesize findings
about the mechanisms of Japanese sentence processing by researchers
in these three fields in Japan and the United States; * to lay
foundations for future interdisciplinary research in Japanese
sentence processing, as well as international collaborations
between researchers in Japan and the United States. The chapters in
this volume have been written from the points of view of three
different disciplines, with various immediate objectives -- from
building usable speech understanding systems to investigating the
nature of competence grammars for natural languages. All of the
papers share the long term goal of understanding the nature of
human language processing mechanisms. The book is concerned with
two central issues -- the universality of language processing
mechanisms, and the nature of the relation between the components
of linguistic knowledge and language processing. This volume
demonstrates that interdisciplinary research can be fruitful, and
provides groundwork for further research in Japanese sentence
processing.
