Mathematical optimization in philology

Abstract

Mathematical programming (or optimization) is a key tool in solving many problems of philology and machine linguistics. His methods are used to analyze textual data, develop natural language processing (NLP) models, and create automated language processing systems. This approach makes it possible to formulate complex language tasks as optimization tasks that can be effectively solved using modern algorithms. The article presents the results of a study of the use of mathematical optimization in modern philology, in particular, the relevance and importance of mathematical programming both for applied problems of machine linguistics and in modern philological scientific and practical research is proven; appropriate cybernetic methods and algorithms of mathematical programming for mathematical linguistics are determined; proposed main areas of application of mathematical optimization in philology; successful cases were analyzed.
