Shieber, Stuart2008-11-102006Stuart M. Shieber. Unifying synchronous tree-adjoining grammars and tree transducers via bimorphisms. In Proceedings of the 11th Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (EACL-06), Trento, Italy, 3-7 April 2006.http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:2252609We place synchronous tree-adjoining grammars and tree transducers in the single overarching framework of bimorphisms, continuing the unification of synchronous grammars and tree transducers initiated by Shieber (2004). Along the way, we present a new definition of the tree-adjoining grammar derivation relation based on a novel direct inter-reduction of TAG and monadic macro tree transducers.en-USUnifying synchronous tree-adjoining grammars and tree transducers via bimorphisms.
