ABSTRACT:
A method and system for use in a natural language understanding system for including grammars within a statistical parser. The method involves a series of steps. The invention receives a text input. The invention applies a first context free grammar to the text input to determine substrings and corresponding parse trees, wherein the substrings and corresponding parse trees further correspond to the first context free grammar. Additionally, the invention can examine each possible substring using an inventory of queries corresponding to the CFG.
