Encoding LFG f-structures in the TL-LFG type system
نویسنده
چکیده
Type-Logical Lexical Functional Grammar is a new syntactic framework similar in nature to Type-Logical Categorial Grammar, but with a distinct Lexical Functional Grammar flavour. It is the overall setup of TLLFG that makes it a close relative of TLCG, but it is the information encoded in the type system that brings it even closer to LFG. The encoding of f-structure information in the TL-LFG type system is hereby discussed.

Annette Hautli and Tracy Holloway King: Adapting stochastic LFG input for semantics
LFG c(onstituent)-structure and f(unctional)-structure analyses provide the detailed syntactic structures necessary for subsequent semantic analysis. The f-structure encodes grammatical functions as well as semantically relevant features like tense and number. The c-structure, in conjunction with the φ-mapping, provides the information on linear precedence necessary for semantic scope and anaph...
متن کاملScoping and Recursive Modification in TL-LFG
Type-Logical Lexical Functional Grammar (TL-LFG) combines the extreme lexicalism and tight relationship between syntactic and semantic construction of Type-Logical Categorial Grammar with the virtues of having functional structure at the core of syntactic analyses. This paper presents fragments of an analysis of modification in TL-LFG. Particular attention is given to the scope and ordering of ...
متن کاملLFG System in Prolog
In order to design and maintain a latE? scale grammar, the formal system for representing syntactic knowledEe should be provided. Lexlcal Functional Grammar (LFG) [Kaplan, Bresnan 82] is a powerful formalism for that purpose, In this paper, the Prolog implementation of LFG system is described. Prolog provides a Eood tools for the implementation of LFG. LFG can be translated into DCG [Perelra,II...

This thesis describes a treebank-based approach to automatically acquire robust, wide-coverage Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG) resources for Chinese parsing and generation, which is part of a larger project on the rapid construction of deep, large-scale, constraint-based, multilingual grammatical resources. I present an application-oriented LFG analysis for Chinese core linguistic phenomena an...
متن کاملDeveloping German Semantics on the basis of Parallel LFG Grammars
This paper reports on the development of a core semantics for German which was implemented on the basis of an English semantics that converts LFG f-structures to flat meaning representations in a Neo-Davidsonian style. Thanks to the parallel design of the broad-coverage LFG grammars written in the context of the ParGram project (Butt et al., 2002) and the general surface independence of LFG f-s...
