Mathematical Linguistics introduces the mathematical foundations of linguistics to computer scientists, engineers, and mathematicians interested in natural language processing. The book presents linguistics as a cumulative body of knowledge from the ground up: no prior knowledge of linguistics is assumed.

This work, first published in 1995, is primarily addressed to phonologists interested in speech and to speech engineers interested in phonology. Autosegmental theory is at the core of contemporary phonology and Markov models are the main tool of speech recognition.
