Any large language processing software relies in its operation on heuristic decisions concerning the strategy of processing. These decisions are usually "hard-wired" int...
This paper discusses the process of parsing adult utterances directed to a child, in an effort to produce a syntactically annotated corpus of the verbal input to a human language ...
Recent approaches to learning structured predictors often require approximate inference for tractability; yet its effects on the learned model are unclear. Meanwhile, most learnin...
This paper describes an empirical study of high-performance dependency parsers based on a semi-supervised learning approach. We describe an extension of semisupervised structured ...

Earlier work in parsing Arabic has speculated that attachment to construct state constructions decreases parsing performance. We make this speculation precise and define the probl...
