A Chunking-and-raising Partial Parser
نویسندگان
چکیده
Parsing is often seen as a combinatorial problem. It is not due to the properties of the natural languages, but due to the parsing strategies. This paper investigates a Constrained Grammar extracted from a Treebank and applies it in a non-combinatorial partial parser. This parser is a simpler version of a chunking-and-raising parser. The chunking and raising actions can be done in linear time. The short-term goal of this research is to help the development of a partially bracketed corpus, i.e., a simpler version of a treebank. The long-term goal is to provide high level linguistic constraints for many natural language applications.

Controlling Bottom-Up Chart Parsers through Text Chunking
In this paper we propose to use text chunking for controlling a bottom-up parser. As it is well known, during analysis such parsers produce many constituents not contributing to the nal solution(s). Most of these constituents are introduced due to the parser inability of checking the input context around them. Preliminary text chunking allows to focus directly on the constituents that seem more...
متن کاملImproving Chunking Accuracy on Croatian Texts by Morphosyntactic Tagging
In this paper, we present the results of an experiment with utilizing a stochastic morphosyntactic tagger as a pre-processing module of a rule-based chunker and partial parser for Croatian in order to raise its overall chunking and partial parsing accuracy on Croatian texts. In order to conduct the experiment, we have manually chunked and partially parsed 459 sentences from the Croatia Weekly 1...
متن کاملParsing spoken dialogues
This paper presents a spoken language processing system for parsing spoken dialogues. The differences between spoken data and written data are clarified. At first, we employ acoustic and prosodic cues to remove noises and identify the linguistic boundaries. Then a fast multi-level chunking-and-raising parser is used to analyze the more "clean" spoken data. The experimental results in parsing a ...
متن کاملChunking + Island-Driven Parsing = Full Parsing
We present a novel method for improving parsing performance, using a stochastic islanddriven chart parser preceded by a chunking process for identifying initial islands. Two different stochastic models have been developed for the island-driven parsing. Some experiments with nominal chunking using broad-coverage grammars derived from the Penn Treebank have been performed with remarkable results.
