The Categorial Annotation of Coordination in Arabic
نویسندگان
چکیده
The model of categorial grammars is a sufficiently flexible model to give an account of several languages and several forms of organisation of the linguistic units of these languages (coordination, subordination, etc). However, the research tasks were limited almost exclusively to European languages. A language like Arabic, in spite of the richness of the tradition of its schools of thought, which go back for several centuries, remains unexplored by this current. In our article, we show how the model of Applicative Combinatory Categorial Grammar can give an account of categorial annotation of Arabic, in particular of certain forms of Arabic coordination.

The Operational Annotation and the Analysis of the Correlative Coordination in French
Despite extensive theoretical work carried out on coordination during the last three decades, much research is still devoted to proving the merits of one model over another. In our article, we will show how the coordination process in French (with using the conjunction et (and)) can be explained through Applicative and Combinatory Categorial Grammar (ACCG). We, especially, describe the analysis...

Despite of the large amount of theoretical work done on coordination during the last three decades, many researches still interested in proving that such model has the widest coverage or the other is better.

In this paper we discuss the need for corpora with a variety of annotations to provide suitable resources to evaluate different Natural Language Processing systems and to compare them. A supervised machine learning technique is presented for translating corpora between syntactic formalisms and is applied to the task of translating the Penn Treebank annotation into a Categorial Grammar annotatio...

Textual information extraction, and particularly the extraction of information from web-based text, requires the annotation of a great number of documents very quickly, using standard categories: syntactical, grammatical (identifying tenses and aspects), lexical (the identification of " transfer " verbs, " donation " verbs, " localization " verbs …) and communicative categories (identifying rel...
متن کاملHypothetical-Reasoning and Radical Non-constituent Coordination in Categorial Logic
The paper investigates the connection between non-constituent coordination, as implemented in categorial grammar by means of a polymorphic type-assignment to lexical conjunctions, and hypothetical reasoning in Categorial Logics. A way of extending the logic is suggested, so that coordination can be applied to types depending on undischarged assumptions. By a certain \resource manipulation" of a...
