TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: "Efficient Linear Logic Meaning"

The "glue" approach to semantic composition in Lexical-Functional Grammar uses linear logic to assemble meanings from syntactic analyses (Dalrymple et al., 1993). It has been compurationally feasible in practice (Dalrymple et al., 1997b). Yet deduction in linear logic is known to be intractable. Even the propositional tensor fragment is NP complete(Kanovich, 1992). In this paper, we investigate what has made the glue approach computationally feasible and show how to exploit that to efficiently deduce underspecified representations. . | Efficient Linear Logic Meaning Assembly Vineet Gupta Caelum Research Corporation NASA Ames Research Center Moffett Field CA 94035 John Lamping Xerox PARC 3333 Coyote Hill Road Palo Alto CA 94304 USA 1 Introduction The glue approach to semantic composition in Lexical-Functional Grammar uses linear logic to assemble meanings from syntactic analyses Dalrymple et al. 1993 . It has been computationally feasible in practice Dalrymple et al. 1997b . Yet deduction in linear logic is known to be intractable. Even the propositional tensor fragment is NP complete Kanovich 1992 . In this paper we investigate what has made the glue approach computationally feasible and show how to exploit that to efficiently deduce underspecified representations. In the next section we identify a restricted pattern of use of linear logic in the glue analyses we are aware of including those in Crouch and Genabith 1997 Dalrymple et al. 1996 Dalrymple et al. 1995 . And we show why that fragment is computationally feasible. In other words while the glue approach could be used to express computationally intractable analyses actual analyses have adhered to a pattern of use of linear logic that is tractable. The rest of the paper shows how this pattern of use can be exploited to efficiently capture all possible deductions. We present a conservative extension of linear logic that allows a reformulation of the semantic contributions to better exploit this pattern almost turning them into Horn clauses. We present a deduction algorithm for this formulation that yields a compact description of the possible deductions. And finally we show how that description of deductions can be turned into a compact underspecified description of the possible meanings. Throughout the paper we will use the illustrative sentence every gray cat left .
