This paper describes a hybrid tagger/parser for French (FrAG), and presents results from ongoing development work, corpus annotation and evaluation. The core of the system is a se...
We introduce a novel training algorithm for unsupervised grammar induction, called Zoomed Learning. Given a training set T and a test set S, the goal of our algorithm is to identi...
Unknown words are a major issue for large-scale grammars of natural language. We propose a machine learning based algorithm for acquiring lexical entries for all forms in the para...
A parsing system returning analyses in the form of sets of grammatical relations can obtain high precision if it hypothesises a particular relation only when it is certain that th...
This paper describes an Ei el system for rapid testing of grammars. Grammars are de ned in an extended BNF notation that allows actions on the parse tree nodes to be de ned as add...
