Gradient Symbolic Computation (Smolensky & Goldrick, 2016) does derive A’ingae stress patterns

Abstract

This paper refutes the claim made by Dabkowski (2021) that stress patterns in the A’ingae language
that he documents and analyses are only explainable by co-phonologies and not by what he refers to
as ‘representational’ frameworks such as Gradient Symbolic Computation (Smolensky & Goldrick, 2016)
(henceforth GSC). This issue is important because it bears upon the question of what kinds of frameworks
can or cannot account for observed patterns in phonology.
