"text": "This paper is particularly addressed to readers at institutions whose resources and organization rule out extensive formal course-work in natural language processing (NLP). This is typical at universities in North America. In such places, NLP teaching must be ambitious but focused; courses must quickly acquaint a broad range of students to the essential concepts of the field and sell them on its current research opportunities and challenges. This paper presents one resource that may help. Specifically, I outline a simple and versatile lexicalized formalism for natural language syntax, semantics and pragmatics, called TAGLET, and draw on my experience with CS 533 (NLP) at Rutgers to motivate the potential role for TAGLET in a broad NLP class whose emphasis is to introduce topics of current research. Notes, assignments and implementations for TAGLET are available on the web. I begin in Section 2 by describing CS 533situating the course within the university and outlining its topics, audience and goals. I then describe the specific goals for teaching and implementing grammar formalisms within such a course, in Section 3. Section 4 gives an informal overview of TAGLET, and the algorithms, specifications and assignments that fit TAGLET into a broad general NLP class.", |

"text": "In brief, TAGLET is a context-free tree-rewriting formalism, defined by the usual complementation operation and the simplest imaginable modification operation. By implementing a strong competence TAGLET parser and generator students simultaneously get experience with central computer science ideas-data structures, unification, recursion and abstraction-and develop an effective starting point for their own subsequent projects. Two noteworthy directions are the construction of interactive applications, where TAGLET's relatively scalable and reversible processing lets students easily explore cutting-edge issues in dialogue semantics and pragmatics, and the development of linguistic specifications, where TAGLET's ability to lexicalize tree-bank parses introduces a modern perspective of linguistic intuitions and annotations as programs. Section 5 briefly summarizes the advantages of TAGLET over the many alternative formalisms that are available; an appendix to the paper provides more extensive technical details. abilistic and decision-theoretic modeling (including statistical classification, hidden Markov models and Markov decision processes) from the graduate-level AI foundations class. They might take NLP as a preliminary to research in dialogue systems or in learning for language and information-or simply to fulfill the breadth requirement of MS and PhD degrees.", |

The course also attracts students from Rutgers's library and information science department, its primary locus for research in information retrieval and human-computer interaction.

The initial emphasis on clarifying intuitions about communication puts students on an even footing, as it highlights important ideas about language use without too much dependence on specialized training in language or computation. By the end of the class, students are able to build on the more specifically computational material to come up with substantial and interesting final projects. In Spring 2002 (the first time this version of 533 was taught), some students looked at utterance interpretation, response generation and graphics generation in dialogue interaction; explored statistical methods for word-sense disambiguation, summarization and generation; and quantified the potential impact of NLP techniques on information tasks.

The students who attack interdisciplinary research with success will be the ones who internalize and draw on these concepts, not those who merely hack proficiently. At the same time, computer scientists also can benefit from an emphasis on computational fundamentals; it means that they are building on and reinforcing their expertise in computation in exploring its application to language. Nevertheless, NLP is not compiler construction. Programming assignments should always underline a worthwhile linguistic lesson, not indulge in implementation for its own sake. This perspective suggests a number of desiderata for the grammar formalism for a survey course in NLP.", |

Abstractly, complementation combines a head with an argument which is syntactically obligatory and semantically dependent on the head. Abstractly, modification combines a head with an adjunct which is syntactically optional and need not involve any special semantic dependence. Crucially for generation, in a derivation, modification and complementation operations can apply to a head in any order, often yielding identical structures in surface syntax. This means the generator can provide required material first, then elaborate it, enabling use of grammar in high-level tasks such as the planning of referring expressions or the \"aggregation\" of related semantic material into a single complex sentence.", |

On the other hand context-free languages can have derivations in which all lexical items are arbitrarily far from the root; TAGLET derived structures always have an anchor whose path to the root of the sentence has a fixed length given by a grammatical element. See Appendix B. The restriction seems of little linguistic significance, since any tree-bank parse induces a unique TAGLET grammar once you label which child of each node is the head, which are complements and which are modifiers.

When I wrote a CCG parser as an undergraduate, it took me a whole semester to get an implemented handle on the metatheory that governs the interaction of (crossing) composition or type-raising with spurious ambiguity; I still have never written a TAG parser or a CCG generator. Variants of TAG like TIG (Schabes and Waters, 1995) or D-Tree grammars (Rambow et al., 1995) are motivated by linguistic or formal considerations rather than pedagogical or computational ones. Other formalisms come with linguistic assumptions that are hard to manage. Link grammar (Sleator and Temperley, 1993) and other pure dependency formalisms can make it difficult to explore rich hierarchical syntax and the flexibility of modification; HPSG (Pollard and Sag, 1994) comes with a commitment to its complex, rather bewildering regime for formalizing linguistic information as feature structures.

For linguistics, this philosophy invites a fine-grained description of sen-tence syntax, in which researchers document the diversity of linguistic constructions within and across languages, and at the same time uncover important generalizations among them. For computation, this philosophy suggests a particularly concrete approach to language processing, in which the information a system maintains and the decisions it takes ultimately always just concern words.

An edge leads from parent E to child E if T includes a step of derivation in which E is substituted or sister-adjoined at a node first contributed by E. To make the derivation unambiguous, we record the address of the node in E at which the operation applies, and we order the edges in the derivation tree in the same order that the corresponding operations are applied in T .

"text": "I define TAGLET in terms of primitive trees. The definitions require a set V T of terminal categories, corresponding to our lexical items, and a disjoint set V N of nonterminal categories, corresponding to constituent categories. TAGLET uses trees labeled by these categories both as representations of the syntactic structure of sentences and as representations of the grammatical properties of words:\u2022 A syntactic tree is a tree whose nodes are each assigned a unique label in V N \u222a V T , such that only leaf nodes are assigned a label in V T .\u2022 A lexical tree is a syntactic tree in which exactly one node, called the anchor, is assigned a label in V T . The path through such a tree from the root to the anchor is called the spine.A primitive tree is lexical tree in which every leaf is the child of a node on the spine. See Figures 3 and 4 . A TAGLET element is a pair T, O consisting of primitive tree together with the specification of the operation for the tree; the allowable operations are complementation, indicated by \u03b1; premodification at a specified category C \u2208 V N , indicated by \u03b2 \u2192 (C) and postmodification at a specified category C \u2208 V N , indicated by \u03b2 \u2190 (C).Formally, then, a TAGLET grammar is a tuple N gives the set of nonterminal categories, and \u0393 gives a set of TAGLET elements for V T and V N . Given a TAGLET grammar G, the set of derived trees for G is defined as the smallest set closed under the following operations:derived tree for G.\u2022 (Substitution) Suppose T, O is a derived tree for G where T contains leaf node n with label C \u2208 V N ; and suppose T , \u03b1 is a derived tree for G where the root of T also has label C. Then T , O is a derived tree for G where T is obtained from T by identifying node n with the root of T .\u2022 (Premodification) Suppose T, O is a derived tree for G where T contains node n with label C \u2208 V N , and suppose T , \u03b2 \u2192 (C) is a derived tree for G. Then T , O is a derived tree for G where T is obtained from T by adding T as the first child of node n.\u2022 (Postmodification) Suppose T, O is a derived tree for G where T contains node n with label C \u2208 V N , and suppose T , \u03b2 \u2190 (C) is a derived tree for G. Then T , O is a derived tree for G where T is obtained from T by adding T as the last child of node n.A derivation for G is a derived tree T, \u03b1 for G, in which all the leaves of T are elements of V T . The yield of a derivation T, \u03b1 is the string consisting of the leaves of T in order. A string \u03c3 is in the language generated by G just in case \u03c3 is the yield of some derivation for G.", |

TAGLET requires the use of one of the familiar context-free filler-gap analyses, as perhaps that suggested by the trees inFigure 4, and their composition: TAGLET requires a gap-threading analysis of extraction (or another context-free analysis). syntactic features amounts to an intermediate case. In TAGLET derivations (unlike in TAG) nodes accrete children during the course of a derivation but are never rewritten or split. Thus, we can decorate any TAGLET node with a single set of syntactic features that is preserved throughout the derivation. Consider the trees for he knows below: these trees combine, we can immediately unify the number Y of the verb with the pronoun's singular; we can immediately unify the case X of the pronoun with the nominative assigned by the verb:", |
