Abstract

This paper discusses methods enhancing the selection of a “best” parsing tree from the output of natural language syntactic analysis. It presents a method for cutting away redundant parse trees based on the information obtained from a dependency tree-bank corpus.

The effectivity of the enhanced parser is demonstrated by results of inter-system parser comparison. The test were run on the standard evaluation grammars (ATIS, CT and PT), our system outperforms the referential implementations.
