This paper introduces an indexing method based on static analysis of grammar rules and type signatures for typed feature structure grammars (TFSGs). The static analysis tries to p...
Parsing systems which rely on hand-coded linguistic descriptions can only perform adequately in as far as these descriptions are correct and complete. The paper describes an error...
We discuss existing approaches to train LR parsers, which have been used for statistical resolution of structural ambiguity. These approaches are nonoptimal, in the sense that a c...

We explore the descriptive power, in terms of syntactic phenomena, of a formalism that extends TreeAdjoining Grammar (TAG) by adding a fourth level of hierarchical decomposition t...
