Shape Analysis as an Aid for Grammar Induction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Visual shapes inherent in di↵erent aspects of language processing have been manifesting themselves as important not only for enhancing that process itself, but also for helping solve open problems in ways that are more economical and more intuitive than the usual statistical-based, massive processing approaches. In this article we investigate an interesting use of gleaning shape from input sets, as an aid for mixed language grammar induction.

Domes as a Prodigal Shape in Synthesis-Enhanced Parsers
Research on logic based bottom-up parsing in particular, around Constraint Handling Rule Grammars [3]is uncovering shape as an untapped fertile ground for natural language processing in general, and for bottom-up parsing and grammar induction in particular [1]. For instance, commonalities between shapes implicit in molecular biology strings and in natural language strings motivated an award win...
متن کاملComic Strips and Grammar Development among Iranian Teenage EFL Learners
This study was an attempt to examine the effect of using comic strips on improving grammar recognition and performance among Iranian young EFL learners. To this end, one experimental and one control groups were formed, each having 45 preintermediate participants chosen via convenience sampling. The researcher-made pretests of grammar and speaking assured the researchers that the participants di...
متن کاملیک مدل بیزی برای استخراج باناظر گرامر زبان طبیعی
In this paper, we show that the problem of grammar induction could be modeled as a combination of several model selection problems. We use the infinite generalization of a Bayesian model of cognition to solve each model selection problem in our grammar induction model. This Bayesian model is capable of solving model selection problems, consistent with human cognition. We also show that using th...
متن کاملSemi-automatic acquisition of domain-specific semantic structures
This paper describes a methodology for semi-automatic grammar induction from unannotated corpora belonging to a restricted domain. The grammar contains both semantic and syntactic structures, which are conducive towards language understanding. Our work aims to ameliorate the reliance of grammar development on expert handcrafting or the availability of annotated corpora. To strive for a reasonab...
متن کاملStochastic Context-Free Grammar Induction with a Genetic Algorithm Using Local Search
We have previously used grammars as a formalism to structure a GA's search for program called sorting networks (SNets) [KBW95]. In this paper we restrict ourselves to stochastic context-free grammars which, while more analytically tracxtable than our SNet grammars, are more difficult than others previously considered by the GA community. In our approach: production rules of a grammar are encode...
