Property Grammars and the Problem of Constraint Satisfaction

چکیده

The notion of constraint appears in all modern linguistic theories. However, constraint satisfaction, which is the typical way of implementing constraints, is not really used for the implementation of such theories. We propose in this paper a formalism called Property Grammar which is totally based on constraints: all linguistic information is represented by means of properties which allow parsing to be conceived (and implemented) as a constraint satisfaction problem.

Constraint Solving and Language Processing

We propose Abductive Concept Formation Grammars, a CHRmethodology for treating long distance dependencies by abducing themissing elements while relating the constituents that must be related.We discuss our ideas both from a classical analysis point of view, andfrom a property-grammar based perspective. We exemplify them throughrelative clauses first, and next through the mor...

Deductive Parsing in Interaction Grammars

We present a parsing algorithm for Interaction Grammars using the deductive parsing framework. This approach brings new perspectives to this problem, departing from previous methods which rely on constraint-solving techniques.

CHR Grammars with multiple constraint stores

CHR Grammars (CHRG) are a recent constraint-based grammar formalism added on top of CHR analogously to the way Definite Clause Grammars are defined and implemented over Prolog. A CHRG executes as an error robust bottom-up parser, and the formalism provides several advantages for natural language analysis reported elsewhere [4–6]. A notable property is CHRG’s inherent ability to handle abduction...

Structural Constraint Satisfaction Draft | Comments and Suggestions Welcome

Conventional constraint satisfaction problem (CSP) formulations are static. There is a given set of constraints and variables, and the structure of the constraint graph does not change. For a lot of search problems, though, it is not clear in advance what a solution's constraint graph will look like. To overcome these deeciencies, we introduce the concept of structural constraints, which are re...
