We describe a new framework for dependency grammar, with a modular decomposition of immediate dependency and linear precedence. Our approach distinguishes two orthogonal yet mutua...

Considering the difficulties inherent in the manual construction of natural language parsers, we have designed and implemented our system GRIND which is capable of learning a sequ...
