Graph-structured stack and natural language parsing

Research output: Contribution to journalConference articlepeer-review

Abstract

A general device for handling nondeterminism in stack operations is described. The device, called a Graph-structured Stack, can eliminate duplication of operations throughout the nondeterministic processes. This paper then applies the graph-structured stack to various natural language parsing methods, including ATN, LR parsing, categoriai grammar and principle-based parsing. The relationship between the graph-structured stack and a chart in chart parsing is also discussed.
