AMOS: A Natural Language Parser Implemented as a Deductive Database in LOLA
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present the set-oriented bottom-up parsing system AMOS which is a major application of the deductive database system LOLA. AMOS supports the morpho-syntactical analysis of old Hebrew and has now been operationally used by linguists for a couple of years. The system allows the declarative specification of Definite Clause Grammar rules. Due to the set-oriented bottom-up evaluation strategy of LOLA it is particularly well suited to the analysis of language ambiguities.

O!-LOLA - Extending the Deductive Database System LOLA by Object-Oriented Logic Programming
This paper presents the declarative extension of the deductive database system LOLA to the object-oriented deductive database system O!-LOLA. The model used for O!-LOLA is \objects as theories", extended by state evolution. O!-LOLA combines logic programming and OO programming in two diierent w ays: First, methods are implemented as logic programs. These methods can be inherited, encapsulated a...
متن کاملLOLA - A Logic Language for Deductive Databases and its Implementation
The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of the LOLA logic programming system which serves as the kernel of a deductive database system. The LOLA language, the query evaluation strategy, the available query optimiaations, the overall compiler architecture, and some implementational details and performance measurements are presented. The LOLA-system is fully implemented in Common Lisp an...
متن کاملMontague Grammars as Deductive Databases
This paper presents a technique for further applications of deductive databases in the eld of natural language processing. Although there were enormous research eeorts on analyzing the semantics of natural languages (NL), especially using Montague grammars (PTQ) for Prolog, corresponding programs for deductive databases are still missing, since range restriction is required in nearly all deduct...
متن کاملSyntactic Analysis for Natural Language Interfaces - the Integrated Deductive Approach
The objective of our research is the implementation of a German natural language interface for a deductive database system which models a production planning and control system. By means of our approach we suggest a way to overcome the severe drawbacks of interfaces that are designed as loosely coupled filters only. We integrate the interface into the database system itself, that is, the comple...
متن کاملExtended CUG for Free Word Order Languages and its Efficient Implementation within an IDA Architecture
This paper is focused on the extension of Categorial Unification Grammar (CUG) in order to achieve a compact grammatical representation scheme for the syntactic analysis of free word order languages. The resulting grammar was applied to the implementation of an efficient parser within a German natural language interface to a deductive database by making use of the Integrated Deductive Approach ...
