Exploiting syntactic structure for language modeling
- In Proc. of COLING-ACL
, 1998
"... The paper presents a language model that develops syntactic structure and uses it to extract meaningful information from the word history, thus enabling the use of long distance dependencies. The model assigns probability to every joint sequence of words–binary-parse-structure with headword annotati ..."

Syntactic Structures in Languages and Biology
, 2006
"... Both natural languages and hereditary biology make use of one-dimensional encription. This calls for syntactic decyphering of the text and semantic understanding of the re-sulting structures. The recently published algorithm ADIOS (Automatic DIstillation of Structure) searches for syntactic structur ..."

On the status of the deep-syntactic structure
"... Cet article défend un point de vue apparemment paradoxal: la structure syntaxique profonde est une représentation fondamentale de la phrase, mais elle ne doit pas être considérée comme une structure intermédiaire dans la correspondance sens-texte. Nous pensons que la correspondance du niveau sémanti ..."

fonctions lexicales. This paper defends an apparently paradoxical point of view: The deep-syntactic structure is a fundamental representation of a sentence, but it should not be considered as an intermediate structure in the meaning-text correspondence. We argue that the correspondence from the semantic
Cyclic linearization of syntactic structure
- Theoretical Linguistics
, 2005
"... This paper proposes an architecture for the mapping between syntax and phonology – in particular, that aspect of phonology that determines the linear ordering of words. We propose that linearization is restricted in two key ways. (1) the relative ordering of words is fixed at the end of each phase, ..."

This paper proposes an architecture for the mapping between syntax and phonology – in particular, that aspect of phonology that determines the linear ordering of words. We propose that linearization is restricted in two key ways. (1) the relative ordering of words is fixed at the end of each phase, or ‘‘Spell-out domain’’; and (2) ordering established in an earlier phase may not be revised or contradicted in a later phase. As a consequence, overt extraction out of a phase P may apply only if the result leaves unchanged the precedence relations established in P. We argue first that this architecture (‘‘cyclic linearization’’) gives us a means of understanding the reasons for successive-cyclic movement. We then turn our attention to more specific predictions of the proposal: in particular, the e¤ects of Holmberg’s
The lexical nature of syntactic ambiguity resolution
- Psychological Review
, 1994
"... Ambiguity resolution is a central problem in language comprehension. Lexical and syntactic ambiguities are standardly assumed to involve different types of knowledge representations and be resolved by different mechanisms. An alternative account is provided in which both types of ambiguity derive fr ..."
