A psycho-computational account Repr¨¦sentations sous-lexicales enrichies pour l'acc¨¨s aux structures morphologiques. Un mod¨¨le psycho-calculatoire %A Chiara Celata %A Basilio Calderone %A Fabio Montermini %J Traitement Automatique des Langues %D 2012 %I Association pour le Traitement Automatique des Langues (ATALA) %X The paper investigates the morphological impact of quantitative properties of lexical and sublexical structures in the decomposition of morphologically complex words by means of an activation-based simulation. A complex nucleus of blind-to-semantics relationships turns out to allow the emergence of proto-morphological representations and to provide a cognitively efficient route to complex word decomposition. A computational account of how this bundle of information is handled with in the lexical processing of complex pseudo-words is provided. The model is tested against an edit-distance algorithm and a non-word similarity rating task performed by a group of native speakers. %K morphological processing %K phonotactics %K psycho-computational simulations %U http://www.atala.org/IMG/pdf/4-Celata-TAL52-2-2011.pdf
