    回指现象一直是语言研究中最为基本和重要的问题之一，同时也是哲学、人工智能、认知科学等很多相关领域内 的热门话题。回指解析指的是为自然语篇中所出现的回指语（主要是第三人称代词）检索出它所指代的先行语的过程。随着信息科学和网络技术的发展，文本信息处 理和机器翻译等应用性研究都对回指解析的精确度提出了更高的要求。本研究受中心优选理论的启发，以语篇的整体结构为基础，利用源自不同结构层面的回指制约 因素构建了一个侧重于篇章回指处理的优选理论模型，并借助一定数量的英文语料验证了它在回指解析中的出色表现。希望《语言学论丛·篇章回指的优选解析：基 于语篇结构分析的理论探索》可以为自然语言处理中更大规模的实证性研究提供必要的理论支持，从而为相关领域的研究者提供一些灵感和助力。
