A Minimalist Head-Corner Parser
نویسنده
چکیده
In the Minimalist Program (Chomsky, 1992) it is assumed that there are diierent types of projections (lexical and functional) and therefore diierent types of heads. This paper explains why functional heads are not treated as head-corners by the minimalist head-corner parser described here.

An Efficient Implementation Of The Head-Corner Parser
This paper describes an efficient and robust implementation of a bidirectional, head-driven parser for constraint-based grammars. This parser is developed for the OVIS system: a Dutch spoken dialogue system in which information about public transport can be obtained by telephone. After a review of the motivation for head-driven parsing strategies, and head-corner parsing in particular, a nondet...
متن کاملPredictive Head-Corner Chart Parsing
Head-Corner (HC) parsing has come up in computational linguistics a few years ago, motivated by linguistic arguments. This idea is a heuristic, rather than a fail-safe principle, hence it is relevant indeed to consider the worst-case behaviour of the HC parser. We deene a novel predictive head-corner chart parser of cubic time complexity. We start with a left-corner (LC) chart parser, which is ...

متن کاملRobust Parsing with the Head-corner Parser
The head-corner parser is currently being used in the the NWOPriority Programme on Language and Speech Technology. This programme aims at the construction of a Dutch spoken dialog system for public transport information: OVIS. For this purpose a robust and efficient parser is required. Elsewhere I have shown that the head-corner parser can be a very efficient parser for constraint-based natural...
متن کاملCoordination in Minimalist Grammars: Excorporation and Across the Board (Head) Movement
This paper describes how coordination has been integrated into a broad coverage statistical Minimalist Grammar parser currently under development, and presents a unified analysis for a number of coordinate (and related) constructions sometimes considered problematic for transfor-mational syntax; these include across-the-board (ATB) head and phrasal movements, argument cluster coordination, righ...
