Modular Grammar Design with Typed Parametric Principles
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper introduces a type system for Extensible Dependency Grammar (xdg) (Debusmann et al., 2004), a new, modular grammar formalism based on dependency grammar. As xdg is based on graph description, our emphasis is on capturing the notion of multigraph, a tuple of arbitrary many graphs sharing the same set of nodes. An xdg grammar consists of the stipulation of an extensible set of parametric principles, which yields a modular and compositional approach to grammar design.

The Comparison of Typed and Handwritten Essays of Iranian EFL Students in terms of Length, Spelling, and Grammar
This study attempted to compare typed and handwritten essays of Iranian EFL students in terms of length, spelling, and grammar. To administer the study, the researchers utilized Alice Touch Typing Tutor software to select 15 upper intermediate students with higher ability to write two essays: one typed and the other handwritten. The students were both males and females between the ages of 22 to...
متن کاملConstraint-based RMRS Construction from Shallow Grammars
We present a constraint-based syntax-semantics interface for the construction of RMRS (Robust Minimal Recursion Semantics) representations from shallow grammars. The architecture is designed to allow modular interfaces to existing shallow grammars of various depth – ranging from chunk grammars to context-free stochastic grammars. We define modular semantics construction principles in a typed fe...
متن کاملTowards Modular Development of Typed Unification Grammars
Development of large-scale grammars for natural languages is a complicated endeavor: Grammars are developed collaboratively by teams of linguists, computational linguists, and computer scientists, in a process very similar to the development of large-scale software. Grammars are written in grammatical formalisms that resemble very-high-level programming languages, and are thus very similar to c...
متن کاملPartially Specified Signatures: A Vehicle for Grammar Modularity
This work provides the essential foundations for modular construction of (typed) unification grammars for natural languages. Much of the information in such grammars is encoded in the signature, and hence the key is facilitating a modularized development of type signatures. We introduce a definition of signature modules and show how two modules combine. Our definitions are motivated by the actu...
متن کاملA CLP Based Approach to HPSG
In this paper we present a CLP based method for the direct implementation of HPSG, a grammar formalism employing strongly typed feature structures and principles to constrain them. We interpret uniication of typed feature structures under the restrictions of principled constraints as constraint solving in the CLP paradigm. The aim of our implementation method is to operationalize the declarativ...
