It argues that differences in the kind of information  being computed, whether lexical, structural or syntactic, play a  crucial role in the mapping from grammatical theory to parsing  algorithms. \u003cbr\u003e  The direct encoding of homogeneous classes of information has  computational and cognitive advantages, which are discussed in detail.  Phrase structure is built by using a fast algorithm and compact  reference tables. A quantified comparison of different compilation  methods shows that lexical and structural information are most  compactly represented by separate tables. This finding is reconciled  to evidence on the resolution of lexical ambiguity, as an approach to  the modularization of information. \u003cbr\u003e  The same design is applied to the efficient computation of long-  distance dependencies. Incremental parsing using bottom-up tabular  algorithms is discussed in detail. \u003cbr\u003e  Finally, locality restrictions are calculated by a parametric  algorithm. \u003cbr\u003e  Students of linguistics, parsing and psycholinguistics will find this  book a useful resource on issues related to the implementation of  current linguistic theories, using computational and cognitive  plausible algorithms.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1996-08-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792341031\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-009-1708-8\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 234cm x156cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 246\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45658336985228,"sku":"9780792341031","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792341031.jpg?v=1771509699","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792341031","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
