A SURVEY OF FORMAL GRAMMARS AND ALGORITHMS FOR RECOGNITION AND TRANSFORMATION IN MACHINE TRANSLATION
Résumé
So much work has been done in the late years in the use of formal grammars in computational linguistics and so many processes have been explored that the author, rather than drawing up a list, has tried to bring out a general outline of this recent work. The grammars and algorithms for syntactical analysis on the one hand, and the transformational grammars on the other hand, have played a leading part in the development of the field. More recently, some attemps at semantic formalisation, extending previous work in the field of syntax, have made their appearance.
The author tries to define the limits and the task of computational linguistics by showing where to situate formal grammars. An analysis is made of the various types of models that have been elaborated or that are under investigation.
It should be a basic help to the use of the different grammars and their algorithms.
