چکیده
The systematic assumption of faithfulness violations in Optimality Theory implies an innnite space of candidates. Under the methodological principle of trying to explain as much possible through constraint interaction, control over this innnite space should be exerted by the constraints. Assuming the subsumption-based candidate deenition of OT-LFG, the candidate space is indeed suuciently structured to facilitate computational processing according to this principle. However, the parsing direction in the standard production-based optimization model is not subject to optimization, so for the parsing task, a decidability issue arises. Adopting a bidirectional optimization model is one way of solving this problem, but the required strong concept of bidirectional optimization may not be linguistically desirable. Other possible conclusions are discussed brieey.

Generalized Tree Descriptions for LFG
This paper proposes a novel description format for c-structure. The explicit phrase structure rewrite rules are replaced by more general constraints in a tree description language: (weak) monadic second order logic (MSOL). Exploiting the fact that the MSOL-definable tree languages correspond to the parse trees of context-free string languages, it can be shown that the generative capacity of the...

Sina Zarrieß and Jonas Kuhn: Paraphrases in LFG-based broad-coverage semantics
This paper adresses the problem of modelling paraphrases in a deep linguistic processing framework where the meaning construction component is based on an LFG grammar. We present a syntax-based approach to paraphrase extraction that operates on shallow dependency analyses in a parallel corpus. By means of an XLE-based conversion routine, we generate transfer rules for the automatically acquired...
