A Parametric NL Translator
نویسنده
چکیده
This report outlines a machine translation system whose linguistic component is based on principles of Government and Binding. A "universal grammar" is defined, together with pal-ameters of variation for specific languages. The system, written in Prolog, parses, generates, and translates between English and Spanish (both directions).

Integration of history-based parametric translators using the automation APIs
In this paper, a history-based parametric method was proposed and implemented. However, the size of each translator that exchanges the feature and parametric information tends to be large, due to the implementation of duplicated functions. Furthermore, because a history-based parametric translator uses a procedural model as a neutral format, it requires a geometric modelling kernel to generate ...
متن کاملNL Domain Explanations in Knowledge Based MAT
This paper discusses an innovative approach to knowledge based Machine Aided Translation (MAT) where the translator is supported by an user-friendly environment providing linguistic and domain knowledge explanations. Our project aims at integration of a Knowledge Base (KB) in a MAT system and studies the integration principles as well as the internal interface between language and knowledge. Th...
متن کاملMontague Grammars as Deductive Databases
This paper presents a technique for further applications of deductive databases in the eld of natural language processing. Although there were enormous research eeorts on analyzing the semantics of natural languages (NL), especially using Montague grammars (PTQ) for Prolog, corresponding programs for deductive databases are still missing, since range restriction is required in nearly all deduct...
متن کاملFlexible Semantics Communication in Integrated Speech / Language Architectures
We consider communication between modules in an integrated architecture for Speech and Natural Language (NL), in particular the communication with the semantics module. In an integrated Speech/Language system several components—phonology (intonation), syntax, context model—may express meaning constraints, which the semantics module must flexibly manage and evaluate, in order to enable semantic ...
متن کاملAn Event-Driven Approach for Querying Graph-Structured Data Using Natural Language
An ideal way for people to query graph-based knowledge, including triplestores in the semantic web, would be for them to ask questions in a natural language (NL). However, existing NL query interfaces to graph-based data have limited expressive power and cannot accommodate arbitrarilynested quantification (i.e. phrases such as “a gangster who joined every gang”) together with multiple complex p...
