Composing extended top-down tree transducers
نویسندگان
چکیده
A composition procedure for linear and nondeleting extended top-down tree transducers is presented. It is demonstrated that the new procedure is more widely applicable than the existing methods. In general, the result of the composition is an extended top-down tree transducer that is no longer linear or nondeleting, but in a number of cases these properties can easily be recovered by a post-processing step.

Extended Multi Bottom-Up Tree Transducers Composition and Decomposition
Extended multi bottom-up tree transducers are de ned and investigated. They are an extension of multi bottom-up tree transducers by arbitrary, not just shallow, left-hand sides of rules; this includes rules that do not consume input. It is shown that such transducers, even linear ones, can compute all transformations that are computed by linear extended top-down tree transducers, which are a th...

متن کاملCompositions of Extended Top-down Tree Transducers
Unfortunately, the class of transformations computed by linear extended top-down tree transducers with regular look-ahead is not closed under composition. It is shown that the class of transformations computed by certain linear bimorphisms coincides with the previously mentioned class. Moreover, it is demonstrated that every linear epsilon-free extended top-down tree transducer with regular loo...

Weighted extended top-down tree transducers (transducteurs généralisés descendants [Arnold, Dauchet: Bi-transductions de forêts. ICALP’76. Edinburgh University Press. 1976]) received renewed interest in the field of Natural Language Processing, where they are used in syntax-based machine translation. This survey presents the foundations for a theoretical analysis of weighted extended top-down t...
