Decision Procedures for Dependency Parsing Using Graded Constraints
Wolfgang Menzel, Ingo Schröder · 1998
We present an approach to the parsing of dependency structures which brings together the notion of parsing as candidate elimination, the use of graded constraints, and the parallel disambiguation of related structural representations. The approach aims at an increased level of robustness by accepting constraint violations in a controlled way, combining redundant and possibly conflicting information on different representational levels, and facilitating partial parsing as a natural mode of behavior.
