Engineering a Deep HPSG for Mandarin Chinese
Yi Zhang, Rui Wang, Yu Chen · 2011
In this paper, we present our on-going grammar development effort towards a linguistically precise and broad coverage grammar for Mandarin Chinese in the framework of HPSG. The use of LinGO Grammar Matrix facilitates the quick start of the development. We propose a series of linguistic treatments for a list of interest-ing phenomena. The analyses are largely compatible with the HPSG framework. In addition, the grammar also composes se-mantic representations in Minimum Re-cursion Semantics. Preliminary tests of the grammar on a phenomenon-oriented test suite show encouraging precision and coverage. 1
