We investigate the effectiveness of selftraining PCFG grammars with latent annotations (PCFG-LA) for parsing languages with different amounts of labeled training data. Compared to...
Empty categories represent an important source of information in syntactic parses annotated in the generative linguistic tradition, but empty category recovery has only started to...
We present an online learning algorithm for training parsers which allows for the inclusion of multiple objective functions. The primary example is the extension of a standard sup...

For decades we have been using Chomsky's generative system of grammars, particularly context-free grammars (CFGs) and regular expressions (REs), to express the syntax of prog...
XML has become the standard format for data representation and exchange in domains ranging from Web to desktop applications. However, wide adoption of XML is hindered by inefficien...
