Reyle U., Rohrer C. (eds.) Natural Language Parsing and Linguistic Theories

Dordrecht: D. Reidel Publishing Company, 1988. — vi + 482 p. — (Studies in Linguistics and Philosophy; vol. 35).This volume consists of a collection of the papers presented at the interdisciplinary workshop 'Word-order and Parsing in Unification Grammars' that took place in Friedenweiler (Schwarzwald) in April 1986. Two additional papers (Reyle,Wehrli) have been included that were not presented at the workshop. All the papers have been refereed and revised for publication. The workshop was organized by the members of the research project 'EUROTRA-D Begleitforschung (EUROTRA Germany accompanying research) which is sponsored by the BMFT (Secretary of Research and Technology). The aim of this research project is to investigate to what extent recent linguistic theories (especially Unification Grammars (UG) such as Lexical Functional Grammar (LFG) and Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar (GPSG)) can serve as a basis for machine translation.Introduction - Uwe Reyle, Christian Rohrer.
