From Logic to Grammars via Types

Daniela Dudau-Sofronie, Isabelle Tellier, and Marc Tommasi. In Lubos Popelínský and Miloslav Nepil, editors, Proceedings of the 3d Workshop on Learning Language in Logic, pages 35--46, Strasbourg, France, September 2001.

Abstract

This paper investigates the inference of Categorial Grammars from a new perspective. To learn such grammars, Kanazawa's approach consists in providing, as input, information about the structure of derivation trees in the target grammar. But this information is hardly arguable as relevant data from a psycholinguistic point of view. We propose instead to provide information about the semantic type associated with the words used. These types are considered as general semantic knowledge and their availability is argued. A new learning algorithm from types is given and discussed.
