Extension of a grammar of French determiners

چکیده
Assessments of the quality of parts of syntactic grammars of natural languages are useful for the validation of their construction. We extended a grammar of French determiners that takes the form of a recursive transition network and evaluated its quality. The result of the application of this local grammar gives deeper syntactic information than chunking or information available in treebanks. We performed the evaluation by comparison with a corpus independently annotated with information on determiners. We obtained 85% precision and 93% recall on text not tagged for parts of speech.

Evaluation of a Grammar of French Determiners
Existing syntactic grammars of natural languages, even with a far from complete coverage, are complex objects. Assessments of the quality of parts of such grammars are useful for the validation of their construction. We evaluated the quality of a grammar of French determiners that takes the form of a recursive transition network. The result of the application of this local grammar gives deeper ...
متن کاملOn the semantics of determiners in a rich type-theoretical framework (Sémantique des déterminants dans un cadre richement typé) [in French]
On the semantics of determiners in a rich type-theoretical framework The variation of word meaning according to the context led us to enrich the type system of our syntactical and semantic analyser of French based on categorial grammars and Montague semantics (or lambda-DRT). The main advantage of a deep semantic analyse is too represent meaning by logical formulae that can be easily used e.g. ...
متن کاملProsodically-conditioned variability in children's production of French determiners.
Researchers have long noted that children's grammatical morphemes are variably produced, raising questions about when and how grammatical competence is acquired. This study examined the spontaneous production of determiners by two French-speaking children aged 1;5-2;5. It found that determiners were produced earlier with monosyllabic words, and later with disyllabic and trisyllabic words. This ...
متن کاملJoint Dependency Parsing and Multiword Expression Tokenization
Complex conjunctions and determiners are often considered as pretokenized units in parsing. This is not always realistic, since they can be ambiguous. We propose a model for joint dependency parsing and multiword expressions identification, in which complex function words are represented as individual tokens linked with morphological dependencies. Our graphbased parser includes standard secondo...
