The importance of the parsing task for NLP applications is well understood. However developing parsers remains difficult because of the complexity of the Arabic language. Most parsers are based on syntactic grammars that describe the syntactic structures of a language. The development of these grammars is laborious and time consuming. In this paper we present our method for building an Arabic parser based on an induced grammar, PCFG grammar. We first induce the PCFG grammar from an Arabic Treebank. Then, we implement the parser that assigns syntactic structure to each input sentence. The parser is tested on sentences extracted from the treebank (1650 sentences).We calculate the precision, recall and f-measure. Our experimental results showed the efficiency of the proposed parser for parsing modern standard Arabic sentences (Precision: 83.59 %, Recall: 82.98 % and F-measure: 83.23 %). |
