Building an RRG computational grammar

Abstract

Several grammatical models have shown a growing interest for the development of the conditions necessary to satisfy the so-called criterion of computational adequacy. Within Role and Reference Grammar (RRG [

Reassessing Constructions in the ARTEMIS Parser

“…The architecture of ARTEMIS was first described in Periñán-Pascual and Arcas-Túnez (2014), and several subsequent publications (Cortés-Rodríguez 2016;Cortés-Rodríguez and Mairal-Usón 2016;Fumero-Pérez and Díaz-Galán 2017;Martín Díaz 2017;Rodríguez-Juárez 2018, 2019) have concentrated on developing some of the components of this prototype. However, contrary to the tendency to use algorithmic techniques, ARTEMIS is a computational resource based mainly, though not exclusively, on the two linguistic models mentioned before, RRG and the LCM.…”

Parsing adverbial complex sentences in ASD-STE100 within ARTEMIS

“…con four different types of constructional meaning (argumental, or L1; implicational, or L2; illocutionary, or L3; and discursive, or L4) by way of multilevel constructional templates. This kernel/non-kernel distinction involved two important modifications for RRG's LSC: firstly, the introduction of a new constituent in this hierarchical structure, the CONSTR-L1 node; and secondly, the subsequent redefinition of RRG's Precore slot position as a Preconstruction-L1-position, the PrC-L1 node "where constituents triggered by a construction can also intervene" (Cortés-Rodríguez & Mairal-Usón (2016). Both adjustments are shown in Fig.…”

An Account of English YES/NO Interrogative Sentences within ARTEMIS

“…TEMIS was firstly extended by Díaz-Galán & Fumero-Pérez (2016) and further developed by Cortés-Rodríguez & Mairal-Usón (2016). AUX comprises the English auxiliaries BE, DO and HAVE, but in order to include also their enclitic negative forms the attribute for polarity (in bold below) has been incorporated to the original AVM.…”
