This book covers topics in formal linguistics, intonational phonology, computational
linguistics, and experimental psycholinguistics, presenting them as an integrated theory of …

The Handbook of Natural Language Processing, Second Edition presents practical tools
and techniques for implementing natural language processing in computer systems. Along …

In this paper, we will describe a tree generating system called tree-adjoining grammar (TAG)
and state some of the recent results about TAGs. The work on TAGs is motivated by linguistic …

Categorial Grammar (CG; Ajdukiewicz 1935; Bar-Hillel 1953) is one of the oldest lexicalized
grammar formalisms, in which all grammatical constituents are distinguished by a syntactic …

We present a system for generating parsers based directly on the metaphor of parsing as
deduction. Parsing algorithms can be represented directly as deduction systems, and a …

There is currently considerable interest among computational linguists in grammatical
formalisms with highly restricted generative power. This paper concerns the relationship …

Given that context-free grammars (CFG) cannot adequately describe natural languages,
grammar formalisms beyond CFG that are still computationally tractable are of central …

The book will appeal to scholars and advanced students of morphology, syntax,
computational linguistics and natural language processing (NLP). It provides a critical and …

This dissertation is concerned with the creation of training data and the development of
probability models for statistical parsing of English with Combinatory Categorial Grammar …

A probabilistic or weighted grammar implies a posterior probability distribution over possible
parses of a given input sentence. One often needs to extract information from this …
