This book introduces formal grammar theories that play a role in current linguistic theorizing
(Phrase Structure Grammar, Transformational Grammar/Government & Binding, Generalized …

This research investigates different methodologies to manage the problem of morphological
and syntactic ambiguities in Arabic. We build an Arabic parser using XLE (Xerox Linguistics …

This paper discusses the construction of a parallel treebank currently involving ten
languages from six language families. The treebank is based on deep LFG (Lexical …

This book is a revised version of my University of Stuttgart dissertation Formal and
Computational Aspects of Optimality-theoretic Syntax (Kuhn, 2001b). The overall structure of …

This paper discusses how the XLE general purpose ordered rewrite rule system is used to
produce semantic representations from syntactic f-structures. The rules apply efficiently …

However large a hand-crafted widecoverage grammar is, there are always going to be
words and constructions that are not included in it and are going to cause parse failure. Due …

This paper describes the error recognition module of an interactive ICALL system with a
special focus on the underlying grammar theory. Using the system, language learners are …

Recent developments in deep linguistic processing give rise to renewed optimism
concerning the practical applicability of advanced grammatical analysis. For HPSG parsing …

We introduce a MetaGrammar, which allows us to automatically generate, from a single and
compact MetaGrammar hierarchy, parallel Lexical Functional Grammars (LFG) and Tree …
