Stochastic Lexicalized Context-Free Grammar

Yves Schabes, Richard C. Waters · 1993

Stochastic lexicalized context-free grammar (SLCFG) is an attractive compromise between the parsing efficiency of stochastic context-free grammar (SCFG) and the lexical sensitivity of stochastic lexicalized tree-adjoining grammar (SLTAG). SLCFG is a restricted form of SLTAG that can only generate contextfree languages and can be parsed in cubic time. However, SLCFG retains the lexical sensitivity of SLTAG and is therefore a much better basis for capturing distributional information about words than SCFG.
