Parsing Tree Adjoining Grammars using Evolutionary Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
We use evolutionary algorithms to speed up a rather complex process, the tree adjoining grammars parsing. This improvement is due due to a linear matching function which compares the fitness of different individuals. Internally, derived trees are processed as tree-to-string representations. Moreover, we present some practical results and a post running analysis that may encourage the use of evolutionary techniques in mildly context sensitive language parsing, for example.

Derived Trees Evolution for Tree Adjoining Grammars Parsing
Starting from the model proposed by means of Grammatical Evolution, we extended the applicability of the parallel and cooperative searching processes of Evolutionary Algorithms to a new topic, Tree Adjoining Grammars parsing. We evolved derived trees using a string-tree-representation. We also could use a linear matching function to compare the yield of a derived tree with a given input and the...
متن کاملLambek Grammars, Tree Adjoining Grammars and Hyperedge Replacement Grammars
Two recent extension of the nonassociative Lambek calculus, the LambekGrishin calculus and the multimodal Lambek calculus, are shown to generate class of languages as tree adjoining grammars, using (tree generating) hyperedge replacement grammars as an intermediate step. As a consequence both extensions are mildly context-sensitive formalisms and benefit from polynomial parsing algorithms.
متن کاملThe Use of Shared Forests in Tree Adjoining Grammar Parsing
We study parsing of tree adjoining grammars with particular emphasis on the use of shared forests to represent all the parse trees deriving a well-formed string. We show that there are two distinct ways of representing the parse forest one of which involves the use of linear indexed grammars and the other the use of context-free grammars. The work presented in this paper is intended to give a g...
متن کاملTabulation of Automata for Tree-Adjoining Languages
We propose a modular design of tabular parsing algorithms for treeadjoining languages. The modularity is made possible by a separation of the parsing strategy from the mechanism of tabulation. The parsing strategy is expressed in terms of the construction of a nondeterministic automaton from a grammar; three distinct types of automaton will be discussed. The mechanism of tabulation leads to the...
متن کاملRelating Tabular Parsing Algorithms for Lig and Tag
Tree Adjoining Grammars (TAG) and Linear Indexed Grammars (LIG) are extensions of Context Free Grammars that generate the class of Tree Adjoining Languages. Taking advantage of this property, and providing a method for translating a TAG into a LIG, we define several parsing algorithms for TAG on the basis of their equivalent LIG parsers. We also explore why some practical optimizations for TAG ...
