The paper develops a constraint-based theory of prosodic phrasing and prominence, based on an HPSG framework, with an implementation in ALE. Prominence and juncture are represente...
Dominance constraints are logical descriptions of trees that are widely used in computational linguistics. Their general satisfiability problem is known to be NP-complete. Here we...
In terms of both speed and memory consumption, graph unification remains the most expensive component of unification-based grammar parsing. We present a technique to reduce the me...
In this paper I will report the result of a quantitative analysis of the dynamics of the constituent elements of Japanese terminology. In Japanese technical terms, the linguistic ...
This paper describes how to construct a finite-state machine (FSM) approximating a 'unification-based' grammar using a left-corner grammar transform. The approximation i...
