Polarized unification grammars [PDF]
This paper proposes a generic mathematical formalism for the combination of various structures: strings, trees, dags, graphs and products of them. The polarization of the objects of the elementary structures controls the saturation of the final structure. This formalism is both elementary and powerful enough to strongly simulate many grammar formalisms

Functional unification grammar revisited [PDF]
In this paper, we show that one benefit of FUG, the ability to state global constraints on choice separately from syntactic rules, is difficult in generation systems based on augmented context free grammars (e.g., Definite Clause Grammars). They require that such constraints be expressed locally as part of syntactic rules and therefore, duplicated in ...

Tree Unification Grammar [PDF]
Tree Unification Grammar is a declarative unification-based linguistic framework. The basic grammar structures of this framework are partial descriptions of trees, and the framework requires only a single grammar rule to combine these partial descriptions.

Defaults in unification grammar [PDF]
Incorporation of defaults in grammar formalisms is important for reasons of linguistic adequacy and grammar organization. In this paper we present an algorithm for handling default information in unification grammar. The algorithm specifies a logical operation on feature structures, merging with the non-default structure only those parts of the default

Polynomially parsable unification grammars [PDF]
Unification grammars (UG) are a grammatical formalism that underlies several contemporary linguistic theories, including Lexical-functional Grammar and Head-driven Phrase-structure Grammar. UG is an especially attractive formalism because of its expressivity, which facilitates the expression of complex linguistic structures and relations.

Categorial unification grammars [PDF]
Categorial unification grammars (CUGs) embody the essential properties of both unification and categorial grammar formalisms. Their efficient and uniform way of encoding linguistic knowledge in well-understood and widely used representations makes them attractive for computational applications and for linguistic research.In this paper, the basic ...

Dependency Unification Grammar [PDF]
This paper describes the analysis component of the language processing system PLAIN from the viewpoint of unification grammers. The principles of Dependency Unification grammar (DUG) are discussed. The computer language DRL (Dependency Representation Language) is introduced in which DUGs can be formulated.

Estimators for stochastic "Unification-Based" grammars [PDF]
Log-linear models provide a statistically sound framework for Stochastic ``Unification-Based'' Grammars (SUBGs) and stochastic versions of other kinds of grammars. We describe two computationally-tractable ways of estimating the parameters of such grammars from a training corpus of syntactic analyses, and apply these to estimate a stochastic version of

The conceptual model of DFD-technology
The presence of large number of models and methods for structural modeling of business processes and systems has made urgent the development of standardized language for structural analysis and design, suitable for modeling as organizational management ...
