We present a quasi-synchronous dependency grammar (Smith and Eisner, 2006) for machine translation in which the leaves of the tree are phrases rather than words as in previous wor...
We present new training methods that aim to mitigate local optima and slow convergence in unsupervised training by using additional imperfect objectives. In its simplest form, lat...

We present a method for dependency grammar induction that utilizes sparse annotations of semantic relations. This induction set-up is attractive because such annotations provide u...
The paper is a first attempt to fill a gap in the dependency literature, by providing a mathematical result on the complexity of recognition with a dependency grammar. The paper d...
Topological Dependency Grammar (TDG) is a lexicalized dependency grammar formalism, able to model languages with a relatively free word order. In such languages, word order variat...
Extensible Dependency Grammar (XDG) is new, modular grammar formalism for natural language. An XDG analysis is a multi-dimensional dependency graph, where each dimension represent...
This paper presents the development of an open-source Spanish Dependency Grammar implemented in FreeLing environment. This grammar was designed as a resource for NLP applications ...
Recently, dependency grammar has become quite popular in relatively free word-order languages. We encounter many structural ambiguities when parsing a sentence using dependency gr...
Abstract. This article describes an attempt to implement a constraintbased dependency grammar for Czech, a language with rich morphology and free word order, in the formalism Exten...
