On Two Extensions of Abstract Categorial Grammars

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNAI,volume 4790))

Abstract

The abstract categorial grammars (ACGs, for short) are a type-theoretic grammatical formalism intended for the description of natural languages [1]. It is based on the implicative fragment of multiplicative linear logic, which results in a rather simple framework.
