Based on the syntactic structure of the parse, information about the unknown word can be extracted. The information obtained in step 2 may be too fully specified for a lexical entry.

The parser is designed to support and encourage experimentation with different grammars, different styles of writing grammar, and with different parsing strategies. Unlike the parser of the first LILOG prototype, which was designed specifically for Categorial Unification Grammars, the present parser places hardly any restrictions on the format of the grammar, and also supports rules in ID/LP-format under two interpretations of LP statements. Empty categories can be processed. The parser includes a mechanism for processing unknown words, and for determining sentence boundaries in continuous text. The parser is a bottom-up chart parser for grammars encoded in STUF. Although the emphasis of the parser is on experimentation with different grammars rather than efficient analysis of texts, we have tried to make the parser as efficient as possible to make it a powerful experimentation tool for the grammar designer. In order to implement parsing strategies, the parsing process is decomposed into individual parsing tasks, which are placed onto an agenda according to their priority. This paper consists of two parts. In the first part, we discuss various choices in parser design, and motivate our design decisions by the use of the parser in a linguistic development environment.

The exploitation of linguistic knowledge for adding additional constraints (e.g. word order, selectional restrictions) to the grammar may indeed help disambiguation, but it also rules out some perfectly grammatical non-ambiguous strings. Ways out of this dilemma are discussed in this paper. They include - reliance on processin g strategies without addition of additional knowledge - processing guided by statistical probability - leaving desambiguation to external knowledge sources - using additional constraints only if they are needed for disambiguation. We propose the addition of preference values to typed ferature structures. Using preference values has the effect that violation of the additional constraints needed for disambiguation only decreases the preference value, but does not make the sentence unacceptable. Disambiguation is achieved by selecting the reading with the highest preference value. We think that it is possible to define a processing strategy (preference-driven linguistic deduction) that finds the preferred reading first.}, NOTE = {URL is a revised version}, ANNOTE = {COLIURL : Erbach:1992:ALPb.pdf Erbach:1992:ALPb.ps Erbach:1992:ALPb.dvi} } @TechReport{Erbach:1992_5, AUTHOR = {Erbach, Gregor}, TITLE = {Head-Driven Lexical Representation of Idioms in HPSG}, YEAR = {1992}, MONTH = {May}, NUMBER = {22}, ADDRESS = {Saarbrücken}, TYPE = {CLAUS-Report}, INSTITUTION = {Universität des Saarlandes}, ABSTRACT = {This paper is concerned with the lexical representation of idioms. We distinguish idioms from other kinds of multiple-word expressions like collocations, support-verb constructions, and lexicalized metaphors. A lexical representation for idioms in Head-driven Phrease Structure Grammar (HPSG) is proposed, which can account for the syntactic variability found in idiomatic constructions, and for the non-compositional semantics of idioms. Since all idioms, which are not completely fixed, consist of a lexical head and frozen complements, the information about an idiomatic expression can be encoded in the subcategorization list of the idiom's lexical head. Since idioms in volve selection for particular lexemes, a feature is added to HPSG signs to encode this lexemic information. It will be argued that the Locality Principle of HPSG is too strong because it prohibits the representation of idioms proposed in this paper, and that the Semantics Principle must be modified. We explain the fact that some idioms do not passivize by the fact that no thematic role is assigned to accusative objects like the bucket in kick the bucket.} } @InCollection{Erbach:1993, AUTHOR = {Erbach, Gregor}, TITLE = {Preference Values in Typed Feature Structures}, YEAR = {1993}, BOOKTITLE = {Feature Formalisms and Linguistic Ambiguity}, EDITOR = {Trost, Harald}, ADDRESS = {Chichester}, PUBLISHER = {Ellis Horwood} } @InProceedings{Erbach:1993_1, AUTHOR = {Erbach, Gregor}, TITLE = {Toward a Theory of Degrees of Grammaticality}, YEAR = {1993}, BOOKTITLE = {1st International Conference on Mathematical Linguistics}, PAGES = {15-16}, EDITOR = {Martin-Vide, C.}, ADDRESS = {Tarragona, Spain} } @TechReport{Erbach:1993_2, AUTHOR = {Erbach, Gregor}, TITLE = {Towards a Theory of Degrees of Grammaticality}, YEAR = {1993}, MONTH = {November}, NUMBER = {34}, ADDRESS = {Saarbrücken}, TYPE = {CLAUS-Report}, INSTITUTION = {Universität des Saarlandes}, ABSTRACT = {This paper is concerned with ill-formed language.

Grammars are treated as a definite clause programs, to which program transformation and deduction techniques can be applied. In particular, the view of constraint logic programming is adopted, which abstracts away from the handling of constraints (which is regarded as a service provided by the constraint solver) and concentrates on resolution strategies. The contributions of the thesis are the following: A constraint language supporting sorted feature terms, Prolog terms, multi-dimensional inheritance, finite domains, by compilation to Prolog terms. The constraint language has been extended with external constraint solvers for set constraints, LP constraints, guarded constraints. A partial deduction system for compiling a principle-based grammar into a set of grammar rules. Partial deduction can be applied selectively through control information in the program, which makes it possible to do experimental work in order to determine the selection of goals to which partial deduction is best applied in order to bring the greatest performance improvement.

Bottom-up Earley deduction is better suited for handling discontinuous constituency than its top-down counterpart, it allows best-first search based on bottom-up information (e.g. tag probabilities), and provides different indexing schemes for different modes of combination of items. The correctness, completeness and termination properties of the algorithm have been shown. A generalised linguistic deduction system, which allows combination of different deduction strategies via control annotations, and which is tightly integrated with the underlying programming language in order to achieve efficiency. A fully incremental algorithm for bottom-up Earley deduction has been specified, which can cope efficiently with a change in the query by re-using intermediate deduction results as much as possible. Augmentation of a definite clause language with preference values. We have discussed how preference values from a variety of sources can be combined.}, ANNOTE = {COLIURL : Erbach:1997:BED.pdf} } @InProceedings{Erbach_Arens:1991, AUTHOR = {Erbach, Gregor and Arens, Roman G.}, TITLE = {Evaluation von Grammatiken für die Analyse natürlicher Sprache durch Generierung einer repräsentstiven Satzmenge}, YEAR = {1991}, BOOKTITLE = {15.

Collocational phenomena in general are characterized by restricted lexical selection of the collocation partners. First a characterization of idioms and support verb constructions is given, and idioms and support verb constructions are differentiated from compositional collocations''. Compositional collocations differ from idioms and support verb constructions as the meaning of a compositional collocation is derived by the usual compositional semantic functions from the meanings of its constituents, and their syntactic properties are similar to non collocational constructions. Further syntactic and semantic properties of idioms and support verb constructions are described. Unanalyzable and metaphorical idioms are distinguished. While unanalyzable idioms are diachronical often derived from metaphors, a metaphorical interpretation is no longer possible, and their meaning must be listed in the lexicon. In case of metaphorical idioms, where each part must be assigned a (metaphorical) meaning, the meaning of the parts either must be assigned in the lexicon or metaphorization rules must be stated in the grammar. Support verb constructions, which consist of a verb (the support verb) and a noun phrase including the nominal collocation partner (the predicative noun) of the verb, function as predicates and differ from idioms in the ability to express different phases of a process via Aktionsart, and the ability to express causative as well as non causative variation. Both idioms and support verb constructions allow for different degrees of syntactic variation and internal modification. There are some idioms and support verb constructions which are completely fixed. The majority, however, allows for considerably more flexibility such as passivisation, or flexibility in word order, heads and complements need not be adjacent. Due to this simmilarity, we have made an attempt to treat idioms and support verb constructions in a simmilar way. HPSG, as it stands, is not well equipped to handle lexical selection. We have argued that in case of totally fixed idioms a representation of multi-word lexemes with the specification of the PHON feature is appropriate. For idioms which consist of a head and a frozen complement and support verb constructions we proposed to handle the relationship between the head and the frozen complement or predicative noun, respectively, by subcategorization. Depending on how fixed the frozen complement or predicative noun is, either the PHON feature, the DAUGHTERS feature or the newly introduced INDEX feature LEXEME is specified. As a consequence, we subcategorize for feature structures of type SIGN instead of SYNSEM. We have specified the semantics of idioms in the syntactic head of the construction. The semantics of the frozen complement is ignored, and the Quantifier Inheritance Principle is modified so that quantification over the frozen complement is avoided. The semantic core of the support verb construction is inherited from the predicative noun; in general the support verb adds the Aktionsart and possibly information about the causative relation. The support verb fills one of its argument positions with the predicative noun, and its other argument positions with arguments of the predicative noun. Any remaining arguments of the predicative noun are appended to the SUBCAT list of the support verb. In case of causative support verb constructions, one argument position of the support verb is filled by the cause(r).}, ANNOTE = {COLIURL : Erbach:1993:ISV.pdf Erbach:1993:ISV.ps Erbach:1993:ISV.dvi} } @InCollection{Erbach_Krenn:1994, AUTHOR = {Erbach, Gregor and Krenn, Brigitte}, TITLE = {Idioms and Support Verb Constructions in HPSG}, YEAR = {1994}, BOOKTITLE = {Grammar in HPSG CSLI Lecture Notes}, PAGES = {365-396}, EDITOR = {Nerbonne, John and Netter, Klaus and Pollard, Carl}, ADDRESS = {Stanford}, PUBLISHER = {Center for the Study of Language and Information} } @InProceedings{Erbach_Manandhar:1995, AUTHOR = {Erbach, Gregor and Manandhar, Suresh}, TITLE = {Visions for the Future of Logic-Based Natural Language Processing}, YEAR = {1995}, BOOKTITLE = {Proceedings of the ILPS'95 Workshop Visions for the Future of Logic Programming - Laying the Foundations for a Modern Successor to Prolog, December 8}, ADDRESS = {Portland, USA}, URL = {ftp://lt-ftp.dfki.uni-sb.de/pub/papers/local/ilps95.ps.gz ftp://lt-ftp.dfki.uni-sb.de/pub/papers/local/ilps95.entry}, ANNOTE = {COLIURL : Erbach:1995:VFL.pdf Erbach:1995:VFL.ps} } @Article{Erbach_et_al:1994, AUTHOR = {Erbach, Gregor and Moshier, M.
