Tree Structure Compression with RePair
Larsson and Moffat’s RePair algorithm is generalized from strings to trees. The new algorithm (TreeRePair) produces straight-line linear context-free tree (SLT) grammars which a...

Bayesian Learning of a Tree Substitution Grammar
Tree substitution grammars (TSGs) offer many advantages over context-free grammars (CFGs), but are hard to learn. Past approaches have resorted to heuristics. In this paper, we le...

Products of Random Latent Variable Grammars
We show that the automatically induced latent variable grammars of Petrov et al. (2006) vary widely in their underlying representations, depending on their EM initialization point...
