Functional Dependency Grammars Andreea Gagea (cas. Macovei) Faculty of Computer Science Iasi

Dependency Grammar - dependency between grammatical units; - Lucien Tesnière -1959; - the main aim: to parse natural language and generate tree banks; - dependency versus constituency;

Dependency Grammar Formalisms: Theoretical Frameworks and Implementations - Algebraic Syntax - Operator Grammar - Lexicase Dependency Grammar - Functional Generative Description (FGD) - Meaning-Text Theory (MTT) - Word Grammar (WG) - Topological/Extensible Dependency Grammar (XDG) - Constraint Dependency Grammar ([W]CDG) - Functional Dependency Grammar (FDG)

Functional Dependency Grammar (FDG) 1. Definition - introduced by Tapanainen and Järvinen (1997); - with two conceptually different components: regular language based analysis and structural dependency graphs; - the first computer implementation of Tesnière’s Dependency Theory.

2. Structure - Nucleus - Connexions - Syntactic head

3. Examples

a) What would you like me to do? - structural dependency graph the directed relations between the nuclei of the sentence b) Did the dog run in the house? - five nuclei in the sentence

4. Applications for FDG a) Connexor - a language technology provider ; - supports ten European languages (English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and Finnish); b) Link Grammar - a syntactic parser of English and other languages; - with a dictionary of about 60000 word forms.

a) Connexor: Sentence: John has two apples. Structure:

Components :

b) Link Grammar: Sentence: John has two apples. Structure:

5. Problematical Aspects - Ambiguous sentences; - Only a few studies concerning Romanian language processing; - Costs;
