Monthly online ILFC Seminar: interactions between formal and computational linguistics https://gdr-lift.loria.fr/monthy-online-ilfc-seminar/
The LIFT 2 research group is happy to announce the three forthcoming sessions of the ILFC seminar on the interactions between formal and computational linguistics:
- 2024/09/11 17:00-18:00 UTC+2: *Meaghan Fowlie* (Utrecht University) Title: *Trees as building instructions *Abstract: *Trees are very common linguistic representations, used for instance in rewrite grammars, X-Bar grammars, and lambda expressions. Trees can also be records of the steps by which a structure was built, for instance a derivation tree or a term over an algebra. These building instructions don’t have to build trees, but can build anything you like. This opens the possibility of using well-established and interpretable tree-prediction methods, such as dependency parsing, to predict a wide variety of structures. This talk will cover some subset of the following ways of using trees as building instructions: IRTGs, Minimalist Grammars, algebra terms, and rewrite grammars. It will also cover some subset of the following computational methods for predicting trees qua building instructions: the Apply-Modify Algebra and Minimalist parsing.*
- 2024/10/16 *15:00-16:00* UTC+2: *Isabelle Dautriche* (CNRS) Title: [TBA] Abstract: [TBA] - 2024/11/13 17:00-18:00 UTC+1: *Denis Paperno* (Utrecht University) Title: [TBA] Abstract: [TBA]
