Abstract
A number of properties of the data-oriented parsing model have also
been identified as being important in grammaticalization theories of
language change. The exemplar-based nature, the use of probabilities
and the incorporation of constructions are shared by both
approaches. Building on data-oriented parsing, we present a
computational model of syntactic change that can account for the major
mechanisms of language change. We show the model's plausibility by
simulating several historical situations of change.
