This paper presents a higher-order model for constituent parsing aimed at utilizing more local structural context to decide the score of a grammar rule instance in a parse tree. E...
This paper describes novel methods for estimating piecewise homogeneous Poisson elds based on minimum description length (MDL) criteria. By adopting a coding-theoretic approach, o...
Narayanan and Jurafsky (1998) proposed that human language comprehension can be modeled by treating human comprehenders as Bayesian reasoners, and modeling the comprehension proce...
This paper presents a multidimensional Dependency Grammar (DG), which decouples the dependency tree from word order, such that surface ordering is not determined by traversing the...
We present a new LR algorithm for treeadjoining grammars. It is an alternative to an existing algorithm that is shown to be incorrect. Furthermore, the new algorithm is much simpl...
