What are the representational primitives underlying the language system? What are the essential mechanism of language processing? How do these components interact with cognitive resources like memory? In the MathEmatics of Language and cOgnition Lab at the University of Utah, we approach these questions by drawing insights from linguistic theor(ies), theoretical computer science (formal languages, computational complexity theory, and parsing theory), and a vast array of experimental methods.
