Computer science Techniques for context-free grammar induction and applications THE UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA AT BIRMINGHAM Barrett R. Bryant JavedFaizanGrammar Inference is the process of learning a grammar from examples, either positive (i.e., the grammar generates the string) and/or negative (i.e....
A context-free grammar provides a simple and mathematically precise mechanism for describing the methods by which phrases in some natural language are built from smaller blocks, capturing the "block structure" of sentences in a natural way. Its simplicity makes the formalism amenable to rigorous math...
{ w | w = w R } is not regular. – However, we can describe this language by the following context-free grammar over the alphabet {0,1}: P P 0 P 1 P 0P0 P 1P1 Inductive definition More compactly: P | 0 | 1 | 0P0 | 1P1 Formal Definition of a CFG • There is a ...
If a grammar G is context-free, we can build an equivalent nondeterministic PDA which accepts the language that is produced by the context-free grammar G. A parser can be built for the grammar G.Also, if P is a pushdown automaton, an equivalent context-free grammar G can be constructed...
For a context-free grammar form G, the result of the G-control operator acting on a family of languages ℒ is defined as the family of languages formed by using members of ℒ to control left-to-right derivations of all grammars which are interpretations of G. If G is left derivation...

Symbolism for Generative Grammars Definition: A context-free grammar (CFG) is a collection of three things: 1. An alphabet ∑ of letters called terminals from which we are going to make strings that will be the words of a language. 2. A set of symbols called nonterminals, one of which ...

1.A method comprising:accessing a dependency grammar;pre-processing an input sentence to produce a sequence of tokens;transforming the dependency grammar into a context-free grammar that can be used to parse the sequence of tokens in no more than O(n4) time, where n is the number of tokens...
