چکیده

Computational phylogenetics has been shown to be effective over grammatical characteristics. Recent work suggests that constraintbased formalisms are compatible with such an approach (Eden, 2013). In this paper, we report on simulations to determine how useful constraint-based formalisms are in phylogenetic research and under what conditions.

Dynamic Interpretations of Constraint-Based Grammar Formalisms

We present a rendering of some common grammatical formalisms in terms of evolving algebras. Though our main concern in this paper is on constraint-based formalisms, we also discuss the more basic case of context-free grammars. Our aim throughout is to highlight the use of evolving algebras as a speci cation tool to obtain grammar formalisms.

A Statistical Approach towards Unknown Word Type Prediction for Deep Grammars

This paper presents a statistical approach to unknown word type prediction for a deep HPSG grammar. Our motivation is to enhance robustness in deep processing. With a predictor which predicts lexical types for unknown words according to the context, new lexical entries can be generated on the fly. The predictor is a maximum entropy based classifier trained on a HPSG treebank. By exploring vario...

A Web-based Instructional Platform for Constraint-Based Grammar Formalisms and Parsing

We propose the creation of a web-based training framework comprising a set of topics that revolve around the use of feature structures as the core data structure in linguistic theory, its formal foundations, and its use in syntactic processing.

Korean Phrase Structure Grammar and Its Implementations into the LKB System

Though there exist various morphological analysers developed for Korean, no serious attempts have been made to build its syntactic or semantic parser(s), partly because of its structural complexity and partly because of the existence of no reliable grammar-build up system. This paper presents a result of our on-going project to build up a computationally feasible Korean Phrase Structure Grammar...

Finite-State Phonology In HPSG

Attention on constraint-based grammar formalisms such as Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG) has focussed on syntax and semantics to the exclusion of phonology. This paper investigates the incorporation of a non-procedural theory of phonology into HPSG, based on the ‘one-level’ model of Bird & Ellison (1992). The standard rule-representation distinction is replaced by the description-ob...
