Probabilistic Modelling of Island-Driven Parsing

Two methods for stochastically modelling bidirectionality in chart parsing are presented. A probabilistic islanddriven parser which uses such models (either isolated or in combination) has been built and tested on wide-coverage corpora. The best results are accomplished by the hybrid approaches that combine both methods.
