Separating Surface Order and Syntactic Relations in a Dependency Grammar
Norbert Broeker
This paper proposes decoupling the dependency tree from word order, such that surface ordering is not determined by traversing the dependency tree. We develop the notion of a \emph…
A Projection Architecture for Dependency Grammar and How it Compares to LFG
Norbert Broeker
This paper explores commonalities and differences between \dachs, a variant of Dependency Grammar, and Lexical-Functional Grammar. \dachs\ is based on traditional linguistic insigh…
Message-Passing Protocols for Real-World Parsing -- An Object-Oriented Model and its Preliminary Evaluation
Udo Hahn, Peter Neuhaus, Norbert Broeker
We argue for a performance-based design of natural language grammars and their associated parsers in order to meet the constraints imposed by real-world NLP. Our approach incorpora…
