In their pioneering paper [4], Gallager et al. introduced a distributed algorithm for constructing the minimum-weight spanning tree (MST), many authors have suggested ways to enhan...
In the literature, Tree Adjoining Grammars (TAGs) are propagated to be adequate for natural language description -- analysis as well as generation. In this paper we concentrate on...
Abstract. The edit distance between two ordered rooted trees with vertex labels is the minimum cost of transforming one tree into the other by a sequence of elementary operations c...
