Title
The RUS parsing system and PSI-KLONE semantic interface: Bolt, Beranek, and Newman
Abstract
The RUS parsing system provides a practical framework for natural language processing that is as flexible and extensible as a modular syntactic/semantic processor (such as LUNAR) and as efficient as a semantic grammar (such as the SOPHIE parser). RUS combines a large ATN grammar for English (with coverage greater than that of the LUNAR parser) with an interface that permits semantic interpretation to be performed efficiently during the parsing process. The interaction between the parser and the interpreter takes the form of a cascade [2] in which the interpreter receives information about syntactic constituents incrementally during the parsing process, and provides immediate feedback to the parser about the semantic acceptability of proposed syntactic structures. This results in an extremely efficient parser that has the advantages of both a syntax-first and a semantics-first approach.
