A baseline method for compiling typed unification grammars into context free language models
Manny Rayner, John Dowding, Beth Ann Hockey · 2001
This paper presents a minimal enumerative approach to the problem of compiling typed unification grammars into CFG language models, a prototype implementation and results of experiments in which it was used to compile some non-trivial unification grammars. We argue that enumerative methods are considerably more useful than has been previously believed. Also, the simplicity of enumerative methods makes them a natural baseline against which to compare alternative approaches. 1.
