This book introduces formal grammar theories that play a role in current linguistic theorizing
(Phrase Structure Grammar, Transformational Grammar/Government & Binding, Generalized …

The grammar matrix is an open-source starter-kit for the development of broadcoverage
HPSGs. By using a type hierarchy to represent cross-linguistic generalizations and providing …

We present a broad coverage Japanese grammar written in the HPSG formalism with MRS
semantics. The grammar is created for use in real world applications, such that robustness …

We present a new way to simplify the construction of precise broad-coverage grammars,
employing typologicallymotivated, customizable extensions to a language-independent core …

Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar is a constraint-based theory. It uses features and
values to model linguistic objects. Values may be complex, eg consist of feature values pairs …

HPSG was developed to express insights from theoretical linguistics in a precise formalism
that was computationally tractable. It drew ideas from a wide variety of traditions in …

The Deep Linguistic Processing with HPSG Initiative (DELPH-IN) provides the infrastructure
needed to produce open-source semantic transfer-based machine translation systems. We …

Recent developments in deep linguistic processing give rise to renewed optimism
concerning the practical applicability of advanced grammatical analysis. For HPSG parsing …

While the sortal constraints associated with Japanese numeral classifiers are well-studied,
less attention has been paid to the details of their syntax. We describe an analysis …

For complex tasks such as parse selection, the creation of labelled training sets can be
extremely costly. Resource-efficient schemes for creating informative labelled material must …
