The main goal of this project is to build a team ofundergraduate students in Linguistics and Computer Science towork on the research project collaboratively. Through thisexperience, the students will be able to learn about eachother's disciplines, linguistic properties of many interestinglanguages, tagset design, various supervised/unsupervisedapproaches to morphosyntactic tagging as well as acquiremathematical modeling and algorithmic skills -- all whileworking as part of the research team.In this research, the PI together with her students willexplore how cross-lingual correspondences can be used forscientific and technological benefit, and provide a betterunderstanding of what linguistic properties are crucial formorphosyntactic transfer.This award will play a central role in expanding inquiry-basedlearning, fostering student collaborations, and providingvaluable hands-on experience of highly practical work ondifficult, morphologically rich under-represented languages.The impact of this project is expected to translate intosignificant gains in recruitment of minority students throughresearch training in Computer Science and Linguistics. Theundergraduates who work on this project will collaborate on thewriting of research publications and present at nationalmeetings so that they can contribute to the research culturewhile enhancing their research awareness.

该项目的主要目标是建立一支语言学和计算机科学专业的本科生团队来协作开展该研究项目。通过这种体验，学生将能够了解彼此的学科、许多有趣语言的语言特性、标签集设计、形态句法标记的各种监督/无监督方法，以及获得数学建模和算法技能——所有这些都是在作为研究团队的一部分工作时进行的。在这项研究中，PI 和她的学生将探索如何利用跨语言对应来实现科学和技术利益，并更好地理解语言的含义。属性对于形态句法迁移至关重要。该奖项将在扩大基于探究的学习、促进学生合作以及提供关于困难的、形态丰富的代表性不足的语言的高度实践工作的宝贵实践经验方面发挥核心作用。该项目的影响预计将通过计算机科学和语言学的研究培训，在招收少数族裔学生方面取得了显着的成果。从事该项目的本科生将合作撰写研究出版物并出席全国会议，以便在提高研究意识的同时为研究文化做出贡献。
