چکیده

Tree Adjoining Grammar (TAG) is a useful formalism for describing the syntactic structure of natural languages. In practice, a large part of wide coverage TAGs is formed by trees that satisfy the restrictions imposed by Tree Insertion Grammar (TIG), a simpler formalism. This characteristic can be used to reduce the practical complexity of TAG parsing, applying the standard adjunction operation only in those cases in which the simpler cubic-time TIG adjunction cannot be applied. A major obstacle to this task is posed by the fact that simultaneous adjunctions are forbidden in TAG but they are allowed in TIG. In this article, we describe several algorithms for mixed parsing of TAG and TIG: a first one forbidding simultaneous adjunctions, a second one allowing this kind of adjunctions, and a third one which extends the second one to preserve the correct prefix property. RÉSUMÉ. La Grammaire d’Arbres Adjoints (TAG) est un formalisme utile pour décrire la structure syntaxique des langues naturelles. En pratique, la plupart des TAG à large couverture contiennent des arbres qui satisfont les restrictions imposées par la Grammaire d’Insertion d’Arbres (TIG), qui est un formalisme plus simple. Cette caractéristique peut être employée pour réduire la complexité pratique de l’analyse TAG, en appliquant l’opération d’adjonction standard seulement dans les cas où l’adjonction TIG, plus simple, ne peut pas être appliquée. L’un des plus grands obstacles à cette tâche réside dans le fait que les adjonctions simultanées sont interdites en TAG mais elles sont permises en TIG. Dans cet article, nous décrivons plusieurs algorithmes pour l’analyse mixte de TAG et de TIG : 1) celui qui interdit les adjonctions simultanées ; 2) celui qui permet ce type d’adjonction ; et 3) celui qui étend le deuxième afin de préserver la propriété du préfixe correcte.

Análisis ascendente bidireccional de TAG dirigido por el núcleo TIG

We define a bidireccional bottom-up parser for Tree Adjoining Grammars (TAG). This parser is a mixture of a defined bidireccional bottom-up parser for TAG and a new parser for Tree Insertion Grammars (TIG) that we present here. We show that the new mixed parser for TAG presents a significative reduction of the theoretical complexity.

Putting Some Weakly Context-Free Formalisms in Order

A number of formalisms have been proposed in order to restrict tree adjoining grammar (TAG) to be weakly equivalent to context free grammar (CFG): for example, tree substitution grammar (TSG), tree insertion grammar (TIG), and regular-form TAG (RF-TAG); in the other direction, tree-local multicomponent TAG (TL-MCTAG) has been proposed as an extension to TAG which is weakly equivalent to TAG. Th...
