Implementing Programming Languages. an Introduction to Compilers and Interpreters

Structural Proof Theory

Grammatical Framework is a programming language designed for writing grammars, which has the capability of addressing several languages in parallel. This thorough introduction demonstrates how to write grammars in Grammatical Framework and use them in applications such as tourist phrasebooks, spoken dialogue systems, and natural language interfaces. The examples and exercises presented here address several languages, and the readers are shown how to look at their own languages from the computational perspective.

Programming with Multilingual Grammars

Grammatical Framework

Bengt Nordström

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Natural Language Processing, GoTAL 2008, Gothenburg, Sweden, August 2008. The 44 revised full papers presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 107 submissions. The papers address all current issues in computational linguistics and monolingual and multilingual intelligent language processing - theory, methods and applications.

Advances in Natural Language Processing

Bengt Nordstrom

This volume contains the papers presented at GoTAL 2008, the 6th Inter- tional Conference on NaturalLanguageProcessing, held on August 25-27,2008, at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg, Sweden. GoTAL was the sixth conference in the TAL series, preceded by FracTAL 1997 (Universitede Franche-Comt e, Besan, con, France), VexTAL 1999 (Universita Ca' Foscari di Venezia, Venice, Italy), PorTAL 2002 (Universidade do Algarve, Faro, Por- gal), EsTAL 2004 (Universitat d'Alacant, Alicante, Spain), and FinTAL 2006 (University of Turku, Turku, Finland). The conference received 107 submissions. Each submission was reviewed by three programme committee members or external reviewers. The committee- nally accepted 44 papers to be presented at the conference and included in the proceedings. The conference programme also included three invited talks, which are the ?rst three papers in this volume. We are grateful to the programme committee members and the external - viewers for their careful and punctual work. The sta? in the local organization team at Chalmers helped in a very professional way. The sponsors contributed, in particular, to the social programme planned for the conference. The invited speakers - Johan Bos, Lori Lamel, and Joakim Nivre - gave the scienti?c p- gramme the broad, yet focused, pro?le that we wanted to achieve. And ?nally, it is essentially the authors of the submissions that created the substance of the conference and this volume, with all their good papers and their cooperative attitude.
